“My Mama passed away from Covid three years ago in November. She always baked me a pineapple cake for my birthday, and also just because I was craving it many times. I haven't been able to find anything close to the way hers tasted. Today is my birthday and my husband ordered me a pineapple cake from Bon Bon's. He said he ordered it late, but after hearing why he wanted it so badly they made sure I had a pineapple cake for my birthday today. I cried because it tasted just like my Mama's, and it absolutely made my day. Everyone was bragging on how wonderful it tasted, but no one could have enjoyed it anymore than I did because I felt like Mama was hugging me from Heaven. Thank you so much. I highly recommend Bon Bon's. They are wonderful!”
“One of our favorite places for a nice quiet dinner out. Gotta ask for the heat though (all the way), and they’ll happily comply. Never had a bad meal or experience.”
“Wonderful day at Shelton Vineyards. Everyone was so helpful. Tamara was wonderful. She was so helpful and knowledgeable about the wines.She went out of her way to make sure our group had everything we needed to make our day fantastic. We also ate the the Harvest Grill. Food was amazing and everyone was great from the servers to the chef.”
“The Fettuccine Alfredo is absolutely amazing and has the best flavor and consistency, And the wait staff were constantly topping off drinks and are always polite.”
“Stumbled across this place by accident. We were greeted at the door and sat right away. The service was excellent and the food was perfect and delicious. Most tender Carnitas I have ever had.”
“Hefty portions are the norm. I had the Southern Eggs Benedict (excellent!), my co-traveler had scrambled eggs and livermush ( similar to scrapple without cornmeal!!)Everything was perfectly cooked and arrived hot!Definitely worth the stop!Wheelchair accessibility: Building is a former Shoney’s several handicap ♿️ parking spaces and a built in ramp to the door. Easy access.”
“Highly recommend this place. Service was great, the owner was very friendly, the food was excellent! The pork belly and their shrimp for appetizers were delicious. This is our new favorite dinner spot in Elkin!”
“We FINALLY got to go tonight for the first time and it was SO good! The burgers were cooked perfectly. Fries are different and really good (which Elkin needed). We also ordered the dessert nachos. They were delicious! 10 out of 10!!!!!”
“Came in for the night from Charlotte to see The Reeves theater. Did not disappoint !! The music, the sound were unbelievable. Great cafe and bar. This is worth the 1.15 min drive from Charlotte to sit in this old theater and listen to the bands.”
“The craft cocktails are top notch. The service is even better. The clientele is eclectic. The owner/operator will always make you feel like family. This is the best place in Elkin.”
“My wife and I have eaten here several times. Always a welcoming atmosphere. Attentive wait staff as well. We've picked from the menu and have gone with house recommendation specials. All tasty and plentiful. From chef salad to pizza to any of the dishes presented, we have not had a bad experience yet and don't anticipate we will. Why would anyone wish a bad experience?Thank you for always a delightful meal and experience. It's a nice welcome to Dobson .”
“Really great place to go in Elkin to relax, with drinks, live music, and usually a food truck or two. Live music is almost always good. The design of the bathrooms are really cool, and so is the design of the rest of the place.”
“If you like country cooking, look no further. Home cooking!!! This place was so good we are already planning a return trip. Service was better than great. Easily tip the tab!”
“Traveling through NC we opted to stop here for food, coffee, and wi-fi. It is THE cutest place to hang out. The Bourbon Caramel Toffee Crunch coffee, Pear & Goat Dalad, and Charcuterie sandwiches were over the top delicious!!”
“Sat out on the patio with our dog and enjoyed a peaceful lunch. The owner (I'm assuming) came out to advise us when our sandwiches were coming and offered our dog some water. Sandwiches were tasty. I had a chicken salad which was nicely packed with chicken and not a whole lot of fillers like celery, etc. overall pleasant experience and we would eat here again.”
“What an unexpected gem in a quaint little town. These folks are not messing around and put out some quality food and wine. The space is an old 1930s Belk department store that they renovated which is neat and the jazz music really added to the vibe. Lovely and delicious!”
“I went here on a random winter Friday in January. Bryan was super friendly and it was literally just me in the tasting room but it was very relaxing. The vibe was so nice even though it was windy out. I got to just chill by the window and do my flight and sip on a glass of their tasty cab franc. Highly recommend, any time of the year. They are open Fridays during Jan/Feb which is one of the few vineyards open this time of the year.”
“We stopped in for what we thought would be a quick cocktail, but we ended up staying for a few hours. Not only were the cocktails tasty and extremely well executed, they were visually appealing as well. We ordered the bacon and Brie flatbread which was so much better than we expected. The balsamic reduction drizzle was the star! Our server was the best. She was super friendly, very attentive and she just all around brought good vibes. Unfortunately I can’t remember her name, but she had fun green hair. I would say the Banana Puddin cocktail was my favorite, so delicious!! All thanks to our server for a great experience.”
“Definitely not pizza I am used to, being from places that are known for pizza aka ny,ctPizza is paper thin hardly any sauce or cheese, but love their salad bar thoughWheelchair accessibility: Front door really tight even for walking people”
“Mom-and-pop diner that has great food and great service always good to our kids.Parking: Big parkingKid-friendliness: Always great to our kids and have no problem cooking things in special ways for them.Wheelchair accessibility: When our daughter broke her leg we had no trouble getting her in and out of this place.”
“We eat here whenever we're in the area. Not just because it is close to the house, but it is truly good food. The service is always kind and attentive, even if you're not from around the area. You'll notice that this is a place for the locals, as there is a men's group that eats there at breakfast time, and everybody knows everybody. The interior is casual with all chair seating- no booths. The bathrooms are on the backside of the building - you go through an enclosed hallway with windows viewing the exterior to get there. Don't expect fancy here, but do expect a quality meal at a good price.”
“Nice place. Outdoor bathrooms like an old gas station but clean and nice. Food great. Prices good. No real ambiance.Dietary restrictions: Salad options exist for low carb eating.Parking: Plenty of parking there and nearby.”
“Some might disagree but to me it’s the decor and feel that I love. Simple great fast good American fare.One of those hidden gems that you stumble upon.Googled food near me while driving on I-77 and Marty’s came up I am glad I stopped in. Great portions at a good price. Please support this great place.”
“Our family loved everything about this restaurant. The food was amazing and we loved the atmosphere in this quaint downtown area. You should most definitely stop and eat here if you are passing through. This is a hidden gem.The flavors of the fried green tomatoes are fantastic as well as the glaze on the salmon (we wanted more!).”
“Been here twice so far. By far on of the best Chick-fil-a I have ever had a chance to enjoy. Service was outstanding on two separate visits. Food by far the best. Both visits hot and fresh food. Atmosphere is purely heaven sent. Love the godly music. Love reading scripture on the walls and the plaques of wisdom. Do recommend. Will be back.0”
“Great local mom and pop. Just down to earth country friendly folks. Prices were great and portion sizes were great. Highly recommend.Kid-friendliness: Great kids menu”
“Excellent food and great little hole in the wall. Family oriented and friendly staff. Small town favorite for many years and continues to grow. Best homemade biscuits and homemade gravy around”
“Traveling from NY to FL. As soon as we hit NC we googled; BBQ! We found the best place, hands down. The ribs were amazing! Hush Puppies were spot on. You must eat here!”
“The staff was amazing. Shockly very sweet. They seemed very down to earth. They actually do there jobs. The food is some of the best I have ever ate. Even if I was hungry I would still go there just to see some of the staff. I would recommend this restaurant to not only my family but to complete strangers.Yes the prices might seem a lot but tryst me for as much food is on your plate when they bring it out its well worth it. You won't get that much food at one time anywhere else”
“We stopped in while doing the passport wineries tour. So glad we stopped in. We had a wonderful time. After the wine tasting we did one of the short trails to the dam. Anytime we can have some wine and then do a hike/walk is a great combo for us.”
