I stopped by the Central Cafe for the 2nd time yesterday. Food, menu and price was average, but service was great. Good people and not too busy. Fair place to get southern cooking in Dobson because there aren’t a lot of other options. Cheeseburger was good but they used a bargain brand ketchup that was not a compliment to the meal. Salad and mashed potatoes with brown gravy were above average.

Normally pretty good. We go there often. But today being Valentines Day, and they’re trying hard to promote the Valentine’s Day special, something was off. Must have a different cook because it was just plain nasty.

A Southern Gem Worth the Stop Every Time!
I first discovered Central Café about three years ago during the Ground Steak Festival in Dobson. I had never even heard of a ground steak sandwich before, but they had a booth at the festival, and I decided to give it a try. Let me just say—it was absolutely delicious! That fresh sliced tomato on top really took it to the next level.
Since then, I make it a point to stop in whenever I’m back in town (I live out of state), and I’ve probably visited five times over the last few years. Each time, I’ve been met with warm, friendly service and that classic southern hospitality. The food is always fresh, comforting, and full of flavor.
Beyond the ground steak sandwich, I’ve also tried their hot dogs and onion rings—both excellent. It’s a great southern-style restaurant that keeps me coming back whenever I’m in the area. Central Café is a local gem and a must-try if you’re passing through Dobson!

Home style cooking at a great price. Short detor off the highway well worth the stop.

I love this restaurant. We love their daily specials. The very few times they messed up orders, they always make it right, and I appreciate their quick and efficient service and the delicious food!

One of our favorite places to go for supper. (Best cream potatoes in Surry County!) Great value! You can’t beat their quality delicious food and great prices! If you’ve not tried them, I suggest you take the time to go. You’ll be glad you did!

It’s a pretty good place to eat but it just needs something. Service wasn’t that great. Food was just average.

Food is decent, service is fine, but there’s a LOT of flies everywhere. If it wasn’t for that I’d give it 5 stars.
