Updated: Thank you for such a great experience!! We were driving from Myrtle Beach to Virginia Beach, then to Long Island NY. Hopefully heading back that way next year and we will definitely go out of our way to get here again.

This is one of my definite fives across the board. We were on a long drive and decided it was time to eat, and Fat Baby’s had some decent reviews, so we stopped. I don’t think that i have ever had such an authentic southern experience in my life. The food selection was excellent! We all had the fried chicken. It was fantastic. I had mashed potatoes with gravy, and turnip greens for sides. Also hush puppies. The kids had Mac and cheese for their sides. It was absolutely delicious. I also had sweet tea, and lemonade to drink. I am particular about lemonade, and this was about as homemade as you can get. No aftertaste, no nonsense, just really great lemonade. We also bought desserts, I had the coconut cake. Very good.
The decor was very local and welcoming. The service was wonderful! Everyone was friendly, very Southern Hospitality.
The atmosphere was quaint. The restaurant was very clean, including the restrooms,
I could say more but if you’ve read my other reviews, you know that I recommend to anyone that is fortunate enough to stop here for this experience.
Thank you Fat Baby’s!
Hope we get there again sometime.

Delicious and very classic North Carolina restaurant! So many great options available, and the owner(s)/employees were so friendly and welcoming. Definitely would go back when I pass that way again!

A lovely little Southern roadside gem. They serve fresh made country food cafeteria style. This is legitimate Southern so don't be surprised if people talk to you and call you baby. My kind of folks outstanding community members
with a history of volunteering and pitching in to help when things get tough for the community.
