There were 10 people in my group and they took us in without a prior reservation and with no hesitation at all. They had room to seat us and were very friendly. The service was excellent and the owner came by to check on us. He was very nice. They have quite a large variety of food to choose from. Everyone seemed to enjoy their meal. I would recommend stopping in!

Casual family restaurant with friendly staff. We had barbeque sandwich and a catfish sandwich. Both came with fries. Food was tasty but a little too salty for me. I would go again and ask them to hold the salt on the fries.

Stopped here for a late lunch on the way home from an OBX vacation. Ordered a catfish basket with fries and slaw and a cheeseburger with onion rings. All of the food was super tasty, but the fried catfish was the STAR of the show. It was so hot out of the kitchen we had to wait for it to cool a bit. The breading was light and seasoned perfectly. All of the waitresses were fantastic! We will return when we are in the area again

I’m so happy that the crossing opened back up, when it closed there was no where to eat in my town. I love their food, the first week they opened there fries were burnt and gross but now there food is definitely much better. My favorite it’s the chicken Alfredo and the bacon, cheeseburger❤️

Have heard how they treat there own people and only put on a show when people are in. The food was okay to me but if you no decency for your own people how can own a show on restaurant.

Good Food,Good people and always a good place to meet new friends or just sit and chat with old friends with a glass of good old sweet southern nectar! Come on by where Good folks like to meet!

My husband and I came in on Saturday, Nov 30, 2024 after driving down from Virginia. We were passing through town and decided to grab a late lunch/early dinner.

Food: My husband had the Mushroom Swiss Burger and a bowl of applesauce. The burger was cooked nicely, but had no seasoning on it. The only flavor came from the Swiss Cheese and grilled mushrooms. The applesauce was tasty, despite the waitress saying it was from a can. I ordered the 10oz Hamburger Steak with Onions and Gravy. My sides were the fries and applesauce. The Hamburger Steak was so bland, no seasoning of any kind, the only flavor coming from the grilled onions (the tastiest thing on the entire plate) and the huge puddle of brown gravy (tasted like the salty packet mix from the grocery store). The fries were well cooked, but had again no seasoning whatsoever and were dumped onto the plate where they became soggy from sitting in the gravy. The roll that came with my plate was just a King's Hawaiian. My husband got us each a slice of the chocolate pie and it was the Marie Callender's Frozen Chocolate Silk Pie, but the most flavorful thing we got. Overall the food is bland and tastes very much like it was served in a cafeteria, not a small local restaurant.

Atmosphere: When we walked in, we were told to sit anywhere (warning: the booth we sat in marked number 3, was incredibly uncomfortable, with a hard edge pressing up and into the back of my thighs). We switched to a table and chairs and that was much better. There was also a full pack of cigarettes on the floor, although everything seemed very clean, so I assume a previous customer must have just dropped them. The restaurant was clean, and the decor is cute antiques. It has a cozy feel without being crushing. At the time that we arrived, there were no other customers inside. The restroom was exceptionally clean and the staff members building the Christmas tree were very friendly.

Service: Our server was polite and seemed friendly, although she didn't appear more than twice after we got our food and that was was to bring us the pie and bring the check. There was a woman who I assumed worked in the kitchen because of the hairnet that came up front and asked how our meal was. When I mentioned that the food was very bland, she shrugged and said that's how the restaurant business cooks food. I was very startled since I've never had such unseasoned food at any restaurant before this.

Overall: Bland, unseasoned, cafeteria-style food, store-bought rolls and frozen pie. Decent, if distant, service, but in a cute, clean atmosphere. We'll consider trying it again the next time we visit town, but no promises. I hate leaving less than 4 stars for local businesses!

Wheelchair accessibility: Ramp to get in and accessible restroom!

Great food, friendly service! Reasonable prices. I highly recommend this if you are stopping by on your way through town, or you are a local. Well worth the time. Very tasty food, the fried catfish was done perfectly! Not too much breading and moist but not greasy. Very well done! Shrimp po-boy was very generous.

Had the Catfish basket. It was amazing. Worth the drive from Plymouth.
