Great place. Nice atmosphere and friendly staff. Food is delicious. I got the pastrami on rye with grilled onions. It was fantastic. I could only eat half. Warmed up the other half for dinner that night and it filled me up. If you are in Sylvania you should really give it a try. You won't be disappointed.
This has to be the absolute best breakfast and lunch in the Sylva area. The staff are all friendly and make you feel welcome. If you are in WNC, skip Asheville and come to Lucy in the Rye.
Delicious breakfast. Everything was hot and fresh. Great local spot.

Lucy in the Rye is a charming diner in a small country town. The staff is friendly and helpful, ensuring a smooth dining experience. The food is delicious and terrific, with highlights including the salmon Benedict, the Florentine Benedict, and breakfast dishes like omelets. The corned beef hash and the Chicken and waffles are also very tasty. Prices are reasonable, and the restaurant offers both inside and outside seating. Free parking is available along the street, although it may fill up quickly.
The menu features a great selection of fresh and flavorful options, such as the smothered fried chicken, the Babylon Benedict, and the huevos rancheros. The cheese grits are a local favorite, and the coffee and matcha latte are praised by customers. Everything is seasoned amazingly. The diner delivers an enjoyable small-town experience, with a focus on quality ingredients and friendly service.
Even on busy weekends and WCU game days, the wait for a table is usually short, and the staff is attentive and quick, ensuring customers' needs are met. It can be a little loud but the food is very good. The restaurant's location also allows visitors to explore the nearby Yoga Mill before or after their meal.
