Very glad we opted for a old fashioned local family establishment!
Cracker Barrel is edible, these dishes were SUPERB.
Friday Chicken and Dumplings were fantastic! The biscuit was to die for. Sampled my wifes fried chicken and was sucking the fry batter of the bones!
Was my first introduction to fried green tomatoes and was a huge fan! Breading on them was DELCIOUS. I ate almost the entire appetizer plate as they came from the kitchen, and I declined the suggestion of ranxh with them as the flavor just bare was too good to mask with ramch!
The tomatoes were my last desert dish as the. waitress made a mistake with the appetizer slip in the kitchen, but she comped them for free as they came out at the end.
They were as dessert! The crown jewel!
Somehow I managed to eat the large chef salad too. We had skipped lunch on our drive in as the local flash flooding and severe thunderstorms coming down the Mountains from North Carolina delayed our travels.
We had no room left for cobbler or pie but am sure those would have been heavenly.
Was stuffed with fried foods and dumplings, beets were out of this world and the green beans had to have a touch of bacon in their prep as they were all absolutely delicious.
We did come hungry, but everything was fantastic.
If we ever go through Charlotte to Augusta GA again we will definitely make it a point to plan another meal here!
My wife is from a PA Dairy Farm so the historical local farming pictures made a neat atmosphere connection. The atmosphere is very charming we thought.
Cracker Barrel eat your heart out!!! Avoid the chains and try this local gem!!!!!

Hotel clerk recommended this. As it was literally across the street we decided to walk there. He did not steer us wrong. This is a restaurant that is just plain good. The service was amazing. Everyone who walked by checked on us. We each had the daily special of chicken and dumplings with two sides. I picked the beets and green beans; husband had beets and fried green tomatoes. All were excellent, and meals were so reasonably priced, $11.99. Portion sizes were large. Hubby and I could have easily split a meal. We each took out over half of each of our meals.
When we are back in the area, we will definitely eat here again.

Beautiful building, very friendly waitresses, super helpful and answered our questions.
Their sweet tea is amazing!!!
Delicious fried chicken and squash, hush puppies and cabbage.
Huge portions and very reasonably priced.
The chess pies were great too.
My only sight disappointment was I think they use margarine, not butter. But maybe that is a southern thing.

Unique rustic roadside restaurant! Quite a pleasant surprise on our road trip. Staff was super friendly and pulled pork sandwich was delicious. Small town prices too. Worth the stop.

A friend and I met here as a halfway mark between our homes(Charlotte NC to Columbia SC) to have dinner. Due to Hurricane Helene, His power was out and needed to get his homework done for his college course. I just wanted to meet for dinner because I was not affected in that way.
Upon arrival, it was a nice quaint family-owned restaurant. In a small town where seemingly everybody knew everybody based on the conversations that were being had. For me it was too cold. Ceiling fans blowing air on food made the food cold fast. I ordered a garden salad, steamed cabbage, and cucumbers in Italian dressing. My friend ordered the flounder plate (which is nowhere on the menu But was stated to have coleslaw that never came). He said it was great. I did not like the cabbage. I’ve never had soggy steamed cabbage marinated in some type of oil. I added the soggy cucumbers to the salad which contained cheese, lettuce, a spot of tomatoes, shredded carrots and whole beets. As my friend completed his homework, I was grateful that he was able to use their power to charge his computer in order to do his homework. Of course in this family-owned establishment there is no Wi-Fi but I had my hotspot so it all worked out. The servers were nice and Grace was shown. We did not get dessert before. I’m only eating fruits and vegetables at this time so I cannot post on that. If I was eating southern food at the time I’m sure it would have been a great option for me. Again, we just googled the place to meet in between. That was not a chained restaurant. I’m sure it would have been more enjoyable had I not been sitting directly under a ceiling fan freezing. We arrived at 6:00 p.m. And the restaurant closes at 8:00 so maybe the freshness of the food would have been better had we arrived earlier.

The food is always Good ! My visit today was 4-stars …the bake chicken was delicious but the side portions are so small ! We had to call the wait over to re-full our drinks and the atmosphere was tight in the main dining room. My To-Go cheeseburger plate the fries was so skimpy and I only had 1 piece of fish on my other plate

Amazing homestyle comfort food at affordable prices! I had fried chicken breast, macaroni, and fried green tomatoes. My bf had the fried flounder W fried squash and really liked it too. Best food l’ve had in quite a while. The staff were very cordial and accommodating; very clean establishment and HUGE BROWNIES! The only reason why I gave 4 stars for atmosphere is that there was no music or artwork, but it was a pleasant environment.

If you are traveling I-77 and have a hankering for a good home cooked meal, you must stop at The Front Porch. The atmosphere is probably not everyone’s taste, but I loved it. There are china hutches a fireplace and an old upright piano scattered about the dining rooms.
You get a meat and three here for $11.99 (as of 10/23/2022). The fried chicken was perfectly seasoned and crispy outside, tender and juicy inside. The side options are plentiful. I especially loved the candied yams and the beets. Beef tips with gravy were also delicious. Service was fast and friendly. We will definitely stop if we come this way again.

Found this restaurant on my way back from Charlotte to Charleston. It was amazing. You don’t find many restaurants like this anymore. Its 2.5 hours away from me and im trying to plan a trip so I can stop back in. One of my favorite restaurants now. Reminds me of family dinner at grandma’s when I was younger.
