Tim’s Country Cafe Country Buffet American • $
2800-2804 Tanger Boulevard, Locust Grove

“We used Tim’s Country Cafe to cater an event for 250 people, and Tim and his team hit a home run!! We had more than enough food, our order was ready on time, and it arrived ready to serve. We had people complimenting the food asking where we got it, and we were happy to recommend Tim’s. The chicken wings were a big hit, but my personal favorite was the strawberry cobbler. There are not too many places that offer strawberry cobbler, let alone, delicious cobbler. Big thank you to Tim’s!! We will certainly be using them again for future events.“

“Okay I was just in that part of town to pick up something on Facebook messenger and it was dinner time. I was hungry so I ordered a fish sandwich. They let me swap the fries for fried okra! That's something in itself; and then I ordered the fish fillet dinner for my family and they let me swap out the fries again. It was just great.
But I have to say something about the collards. They were fantastic! I've already recommended to about 3 or 4 friends. And the catfish was fried golden brown instead of light yellow. Go, order, eat. You won't be disappointed.“

“The best chicken since my Grandmothers' !!!! This experience is the best. I have had some good chicken from Canes'---I lived in Baton Rouge for many years--but Cowboy's is the best by far. The personnel working there are all awesome, making for a great experience all around. The experience of eating good food is quite hard to find in this day and time. Please convey to everyone that is associated that they are well thought of, and I convey that to everyone I know. Thanks again!!“

“I was a little confused by my experience. I ordered a scoop of chicken salad and asked if I could purchase a large bowl of pasta salad, but I was told that wasn't something they could do. I just ordered the regular pasta salad instead. When I got my to-go order, the pasta salad was placed in the compartment of the container instead of in a separate bowl like it is when I dine in. It looked like a smaller portion, so I'm wondering: are the dine-in and to-go portions supposed to be the same? You can see in the picture how small that portion is.“

“Ordered a family bundle and additional meal for pick up, only received half the order. Unacceptable, why are they not checking for order accuracy? I even tipped well, regrettably. Called about the missing food and got an excuse about being busy, call and ask for the manager in the morning. I expect to get the run around. I will be updating this review, as accountability is a lost art in this day and age and people work too dam hard for their money for merchants to act careless about the privilege of receiving other people's money. This is the second time they shorted my order, the first time I let it slide. Never ordering from this location again.

Update: I was connected to a manager who agreed it did not make sense and would follow up with the staff. He also took care of us on a following visit.“
