“Coworker and I split the Fried Green Tomato sandwich and the Garlic Breath sandwich. Both were absolutely delicious, but the Fried Green Tomato sandwich was the best sandwich I've had in a very long time. Went back the next day to take my Mom (near their closing time). and tried the Roasted Sweet Potato Spinach and Bacon salad. Definitely another win... was absolutely delicious!! Staff is super friendly and kind.“

“Just picked up my call in order. Saturday 7/20/24 at 4:20pm. When I called to place my order the young man was so kind and professional. When I arrived to pick up my order, the restaurant was packed! When I entered to get my food… I believe the same young man from the phone greeted me immediately. There were several other employees that greeted my young son as I was paying. They were all so sweet and inviting. My food was perfect. Exactly as I ordered, condiments included. Absolutely recommend! ❤️“

“Today was our second time eating there. A week ago we ate with my parents. My mom has bad allergies. Our waitress Carrie took care of us. She is my favorite waitress ever. We ate today. We got the cookie monster. It was delicious. We also saw Carrie. I will ask for her next time. I will definitely be going back. The food and atmosphere are amazing.“

I'll try something else next time.“

“This Culvers was extremely impressive. We stopped by for lunch on our way to Asheville. When I say they were busy, that may be an understatement. Line out the door, drive thru lined up, parking lot FULL. Being that we had received a Culver's gift card for christmas, we decided to go ahead and stay. The staff was extremely friendly. We waited about 10 minutes in line to order considering the amount of people. Then only had to wait about 15 minutes for our hot and fresh food to be at our table. I have experienced longer wait times at other Culver's in an environment that was not a fraction of the amount of busy they were. The food was absolutely phenomenal. I want to give props to the crew working. They were on it! Everything was clean, even the drink station! As stated before, very impressed with how this location is ran. Like a smooth sailing ship. Great job guys!“

“I ate there yesterday 9/7/22. I ordered the 18oz ribeye which I had to bring half home because I ate too much appetizer. Best steak EVER I've had eating out. Kudos to the chef, you made my day. 10 stars.“

“Small but the food and ice cream is on point. Hot fudge brownie with ice cream and chocolate syrup. Would've rather have had hot fudge, but good none the less. If you ever around there stop in and give em a try. Oh yeah, breakfast is pretty good too!“

“I ate lunch here on a Monday. 2:30 PM. I had the soup and salad combo for $9.59. French onion soup was absolutely delicious! Salad was also good and was served in a chilled bowl. (Nice touch!) Our waitress could not have been better! I will return! I asked the waitress if French onion soup to go works very well. She explained on to go orders they keep the cheese separate from the soup and when you get home, you add the cheese and microwave. I’ll have to try that!“

“10/10 delicious!!! Can’t wait to go back and try more of the menu ! We shared a club , hotdog , country fried steak , okra ,curds , mashed potatoes and gravy ! All delicious! Only thing I can complain about is not having enough room to try the dessert! I’m sure that woulda been delicious as well ! If you are looking for a delicious home cooked style meal with lots of flavor , this is the place !“

“Had to find a brewery for our day trip out to Hickory and happy we chose Olde Hickory. I loved the aesthetic of the carved out bar in the brewery. Parking was right around the corner - you could definitely miss it if you weren’t looking for it. Not a ton of parking, but it’s a pretty small bar area. I love that they had several TVs up and were playing college football and basketball. That’s a way to my heart. Everyone was very friendly. I had a flight and my wife had the Christmas Ale. I think of the four beers of my flight, I really liked one, liked two others, and didn’t love the last but beer is subjective to the taste buds of the drinker.

I’m glad we went and next time we are in town we will try to stop in again to try some more beers.“

“It’s not the same as it use to be back then but it is still my favorite and I 100% recommend to eat here“
