“My mother in law and her boyfriend brought my husband and I here right after we got married 😂 so, I may be biased because now it holds a special place in my heart. But, the food was good and the service was fast. I really had no complaints. They have a kids menu so my daughter was able to get her normal chicken and fries.

Kid-friendliness: Kid menu was available with all the favs“

“We found Mellow Mushroom on a trip it was in Tennessee and we feel in love with their fresh food and great sweet tea and they have friendly service. Can’t wait to go back ♥️🥰“

“Outstanding!

We stopped in for a drink at their full service bar. I ordered a Sazerac, which is always a good general barometer of the skills of the mixologist. My Sazerac was absolutely delicious. Complex and perfectly balanced; executed with skill that only an experienced mixologist can deliver.

My wife ordered a proprietary signature seasonal cocktail, (which I also sampled) and it was evident that it had been carefully crafted by a mixologist who truly knew their craft well. Not sweet, not bitter…rich and bright—refreshing with a clever play of citrus. What manner of mixologist sorcery is this?

This high level of craftsmanship combined with the excellent quality of the spirits they make at Warehouse Distillery are certainly great reasons for a return trip. It’s absolutely going to be worth your time to stop in.

I am compelled to return soon, to tour the distillery, sample their bourbon and stock my home bar with that wonderful rye!“

“Owners run the place and are super friendly - drinks are high quality“

“This is truly a country restaurant. Good simple southern breakfast. Liver mush prepared to perfection when fried. Crispy crunchy on the outside. Cinnamon pancakes unbelievable! Service great. Nice clean restaurant. Prices very reasonable! And they give healthy options too. Vegetable egg, white omelette, etc. etc. If you want the Country breakfast experience that North Carolina offers this is the place. Simple and good.“

“Very good Japanese food. Quick friendly service“

“Excellent food and great service!!“

“Best Eggplant Parm. Ever! You will not regret eating here! Cannoli's are to die for omg ....“

“Everything was fine - second time dining here since it was purchased by new owners. Food was same quality or maybe a bit better. Two small issues - 1) the booth we were seated at was a bit warm for 2 in our party - very still air. 2) Flat percentage tipping recommendations on the payment terminal screen includes sales tax. Just a heads up for those who only tip on food & drink.“

“Met my boyfriend for our first date here 3 years ago. Just recently moved back to this area, was looking for a chill coffee spot. Went here once by myself. Neat spot, good atmosphere. We sat inside. The cashier stared at us the whole time and asked us to hurry. They told us we had a limit of an hour inside. We didn't question it and left. This was 3 years ago. Could of been my new favorite coffee spot. Have not and will not be back.“

“The knowledge. Their attitude. Their good advice. They really appreciate and know their customers. Never pushy but will take time to whatever you need or ask. I will never go anywhere else. They never take advantage of you.“

“Great service great food We will be back“

“Really enjoyed the food. It was quite a lot. We were a party of 6. I highly recommend if you are looking for a Seafood restaurant. 🙂“

“Simply put, Just amazing. All 6 of us in the family enjoyed the Pizza and Garlic knots. Marinara sauce was on point also. Great service too. We’ll be back.“

“My husband and I are “foodies” and we absolutely LOVE the Vintage House in Hickory. We would rank this restaurant as one of the top in NC. Every appetizer, entree, and dessert are delicious and beautifully plated. The atmosphere is upscale without being stuffy. Prices are in line with the food and service received. All staff are excellent, and we particularly appreciate the warm welcome we always receive from Jack. We are very thankful to have such an excellent restaurant in our hometown!“

“Last week there was a mistake on my delivery order. I reached out and Bruno (owner) immediately took action. He remade my breakfast wrap and personally delivered it to me. We are all human and make mistakes, but Im a firm believer it’s how you handle the mistakes thats leave the impression on a customer. Please support our local businesses, especially Cafe Gouda!“

“I was in the area visiting! A great experience. A hard working staff & they are all so friendly. The food was amazing! Especially the way they cooked my steak was to perfection! I can’t wait to return.“

“Love this place. Their passion is in the food. These chefs create amazing flavorful dishes! Never a disappointment!!“

“We love Hardee’s, but we were very disappointed on our last visit, we ordered 10 piece chicken tenders, we got home and we had very small pieces. We called the store and the employee stated that they decided to fry up some end pieces. Very disappointed, not enough to serve the 2 of us, thank you .“

“Great food, amazing service!“

“So just wanted to say thank you to all the ones who took the time to give me a review and just so everyone knows who the "Girl with the Bun" is I'm Crystal and I'm very blessed to have this job and work with all my amazing customers on a personal level. Thanks again for the 5⭐ reviews“

“I grew up around whataburger and it's a hit or miss, however this one in hickory by far has been one of the cleanest and better service provided by far. The lady at the counter was very sweet gave us coupons for next time and the quick service was great. I def recommend it the one infront of the mall“

“I decided to stop in to grab a cold brew during a grocery run on Saturday 5/17/25 around 12:30 in the afternoon. Per normal, the Target Starbucks line was rather long, but I was luckily shopping kid free that day and in no rush to scurry back home, so I waited patiently (all the mamas understand). I would guesstimate I waited between 10-15 minutes and the entire time only one person was working, a very tall, dark haired man. I wish I had gotten his name because I would love to give him the biggest shout out! The whole time I was in line I watched him seamlessly take multiple orders and make their drinks all in a line like a bar tender. He never messed up, never faltered, and pumped out coffee to the masses like a pro. You know how us white girls can get about our sugar flavored drinks, and he met every single one of us in line with a big smile and welcomed greeting. He held polite conversations as he worked and even made sure each person got their correct order handed directly to them, instead of just slamming them on the counter for you to find. I'm not sure where you found them gem of a gentleman, but during the time I was there, he made each and every person feel like their order was important and even the grumpiest Karen seemed to leave in a better mood (that may have also been because they finally got their caffeine fix for the day). He made sure when taking your order you didn't miss anything, and would double check to make sure you have everything you want when he handed off the goods. He'd even offer to fix your drink if you have any issues. I know it's stressful being the only one working (I'm hoping there was a coworker on break and Starbucks didn't just fail this man by having him work alone on a Saturday), and I hope he knows how amazing he is to take a deep breath, grit his teeth, and keep on pushing through as if nothing was the matter. I don't even know if my cold brew tasted good or not because the only flavor I could taste was pride. Whoever his mama is, should be proud.“

“We wanted to take Advantage of 50% off deal on Domino’s Pizza. I typically go for pizza at another business, but wanted to try the spinach Alfredo pan crust pizza. It was amazing! Love the App. Was ready on time @ HWY 127 South Location. Thank you Joe. Great pizza 😃“

“We live next to a Taco Bell by a certain baseball stadium in town.

We purposely drive to this one that’s 15 minutes further because the night crew is very fast, never had a mistake with an order, and including the drive back, it would still be faster than the one closest to us. Y’all rule 🥲“

“i went there and their drink machine was messed up. i reported it trying to help and the cashier said others had reported the drinks being messed up also. an older lady that I assume was the manager comes out with the rudest most unprofessional attitude. she literally took a cup and announced "carbonation" then dumped it out then did this over and over for the whole machine instead of just tasting the problem. manager or not rude, lazy employee. not going back to pack $16+ dollars just to have an employee make a scene at the drink machine they wanna charge $3 for. keep your rotten attitudes and overpriced crap I feel bad for the young people working there if that's how things go in front of customers“

“OK, wait is long“

“Best Bojangles in area, biscuits always fresh, easy access to bldg from hwy no traffic lights, prefer to this one.“
