“Stopped by yesterday while in the area after it was recommended by Barefoot Brew on Broad Street. The coffee shop has never let me down, so I decided to check it out. The service was exceptional, very friendly staff and extremely conversational at the register. The food came out quickly and was “made with love.” I ordered a cheeseburger with cheddar cheese and mayo, which was delicious, and I would even compare it to Melvin’s. The okra was good too, but the stars of the show were the crispy fries. They are wide, but thinly cut, so you get a perfect crisp on the outside with a soft and fluffy inside. The Barefoots really care about their customers. Bottomless fountain drinks, the owner walking around and chatting with customers, the customer service was exceptional. Also, not sure why nobody talks about this, but the walls are covered with little pieces of Bladen county history. Very fun to read while you wait on your food. Overall, this place checks off all the boxes. Friendly staff, exceptional customer service, fun atmosphere, and delicious food. Will definitely recommend to all my friends and family!“
“This place is really a little hole in the wall local joint with good, simple food and friendly service. Their takeout business is a huge chunk of business, but frankly, it was fun sitting, eating, and being a part. If you are looking for a salad, this isn't for you. Lol.“
“Grounds are a delightful surprise tucked away in the country. The vineyards, waterside seating and rose bushes must be so lovely when in season. Loved the fun little petting farm, shop with tasteful gifts and there’s even a day spa.Had dinner at the Cork Room to celebrate Valentines Day. Husband had the ribeye, I had the shrimp and grits. Both were tasty and cooked to perfection. They had plenty of gluten-free options, including GF buns for the burgers and GF pasta for any of the dishes, which made it hard to decide what to eat! Chef Timothy’s chocolate trifle was a light and scrumptious finale to the meal. Will definitely be back!“
“This food was great. Said they are voted #1 in Bladen Co. I can see why. Lots of outdoor seating. Limited indoor. Pizza is great. Enjoyed one of the salads and even some fried foods. Sodas are limited. Great beer and wine selection. Worth a check if you're in the area.“

“Stopped in for a dinner with friends very good service and all the food was very good. Better selection than many restaurants in Laramie. Crowded at 6pm but cleared out. Good atmosphere and views of the main drag outside. Prices not exorbitant.“
“Food was great and service fast. Overall great experience. It was a little confusing the first time, it's not a sit down and order restaurant but get in line and order cafeteria style.Wheelchair accessibility: Easy access front door with flat sidewalk and no stairs inside.
