One of the few Chapel Hill restaurants remaining from my undergraduate days at UNC. Great food and memories. I miss the Rams head Rathskeller, Ye Olde Waffle Shoppe, Hector's, Swensen's, and Mama Dip's.

A fun local experience. I wasn't expecting it to be so much like an actual drugstore, with a working prescription counter and non-restaurant layout. It's cheap, has all sorts of local charm, and is fast.

Great restaurant with great food at an inexpensive price, especially when you live on a budget. It's one of my favorite restaurants. The staff is exceptionally friendly and helpful. I recommend this restaurant out of most restaurants in my area.

The food is really good. It is what you would expect from an old drug store lunch counter. The atmosphere is amazing. So much history it is a treat just to walk in and look around. This is a must try if you are visiting or live in the area.Parking: There are paid lots near by and the other option is paid street parking. Finding a spot near by can be difficult.

Giving Sutton’s a five star rating based on their kindness and community involvement. My daughter was out running during the recent lockdown on campus. She ran there and let them know why she was there. They let her and others stay past closing until the lockdown was lifted. They offered her food and drink, put on the news and kept calm during the incident. This wasn’t an experience anyone should go through but they were kind and generous throughout. I’m very thankful and will stop in to personally thank them the next time I’m in the area.
