4 Best Cafes near Leighton

“I visited this place to get some pumpkins for my birthday (10/13), and it turned out to be more than just a pumpkin patch—it was a full Fall adventure! There were bouncy toys, photo ops, a basketball area, hay maze, tractor rides, a snack stand, a safari walk, and a petting zoo. I loved it! It’s super cute and perfect for families.“

“We visited here for lunch after a road trip to the Alabama Music Hall of Fame. This is a solid little spot for country cooking.

The sign for the place is a little hard to see and I missed the turn to enter the parking area initially. Made our way back and found a spot, though the lot is a little bit hard to maneuver. We walked inside to a slightly hot, slightly dim interior. It's larger than it looks on the outside. A friendly waitress told us we could sit where we liked, so we took a booth near a window so we could see the menu better.

Their choices were fairly varied for lunch. Lunches come with a meat + 3 veggies and your choice of bread. I ordered the boneless fried chicken breast, macaroni and cheese, fried okra, and at the recommendation of our waitress, the hash brown casserole with a roll as my bread. My mom got the country fried steak with brown gravy, macaroni and cheese, fried okra, cabbage, and a roll. My dad got the same thing except he subbed the cabbage for greens of some sort, though I can't recall if they were turnip or collard greens. He also got the fried cornbread.

Our waitress was very nice and patient with us, even with my dad chatting her up, lol. Our food came out quickly. You pay at the register up front -- we thought the prices were reasonable.

As for the food itself, it was enjoyable! Simple, straightforward, but tasty and comforting. The chicken was breaded expertly and was cooked well. To me, the stand out was the fried okra, which was perfectly crisp. We also enjoyed the macaroni and cheese, greens, and chicken fried steak. My mom said her best thing was the cabbage, which was surprising at first -- but I agree, the cabbage was excellent! The hashbrown casserole and the fried cornbread were the only two letdowns; the casserole needed to be cooked and seasoned a bit more, and the cornbread was likewise a little on the floppy side, instead of having pleasantly crisp edges.

Overall, though, solid country cooking at a reasonable price served quickly by nice people. Give them a go if you're in the area.“

“I love Sam's Club Cafe. They have a variety of delicious pizza, pretzels, hotdogs, slushies, fountain drinks, and so much more at very decent prices.It's so convenient.Yesterday was my first time having the Buffalo chicken wrap, and it was one of the best wraps I've ever had! So good!“

“This has always been one of my favorite places in Florence, but I have to admit that it is oftentimes a hit or miss.

For our last visit, the food was quite tasty, our only issue was that our buzzer was not functioning - but thankfully Panera calls out your order on top of using said buzzer.

Additionally, in every visit, Panera has not been at all crowded. Come here if you want a quiet getaway to study or relax while chowing down on a sandwich or soup!“
