16 Best American Restaurants near Lydia

“While Tommy's might not look like much from the outside, it's what is inside that counts! Hidden in the tiny little country store is some of the best hotdogs, ribs, and sandwiches you could ask for!! If you haven't already tried them, you should do yourself a favor and check them out.“

“Prices are great along with a very friendly and decent paced staff 10/10 food it is always fresh and delicious, and looks pretty good inside and out but the main thing I look at in a restaurant is the food and how well the staff perform and sure they make take a few minutes but it's all worth it because when you get the food it's always fantastic, I'd personally recommend the cheeseburger all the way it's amazing with a side of onion rings or you can do as I do and put the onion rings in the burger it's such a good combination.“

“Old Skool Diner!!!! The Pimento Cheeseburger was great, BUT almost got the meat and three special!!??“

“Good food at a fair price“

“We celebrated our daughter's 21st birthday here. the whole staff is amazing. And the food is perfect. Thank you for a wonderful and memorable night!“

“Love the coffee, love the food! I am from and live in Hartsville and love this place! What I want others to understand….if you have a great waiter/waitress, soak in it… may take awhile for meal to come out but understand that it is not their fault. All businesses are understaffed and doing their very best. Be kind and don’t act like you are elite or an exception. We are all human. Love the Rooster!“

“Was in Bishopville for, "Lizard Man Sromp,," came out of the Cotton Museum and discovered this place for lunch. Verry friendly greetings and welcome. Great Shrimp "Mor" Boy sandwich with onion rings. YEP, would definitely eat here again if in Bishopville.“

“Came in with a couple of friends, on a Wednesday, after a really rough night at work. They were playing music on the porch and asking for requests. Very laid back, chill place, with some great people. Had a great time. I would definitely recommend that you try the place out. I wish I knew about this place a lot sooner. Will be going again!“

“Shoneys recently catered our grandparent day at school, food was such a hit, they did a great job helping us plan menu and amount, they went above and beyond making sure we had all the right items and more than enough. Super team to work with, thank you!!“

“Food was very good. Very happy with crab cakes and mashed potatoes

Only complaint was many people in our group would ask for something and response was we done have any. (Eg berries for cheesecake) or type of wine. They need a better supplier.“

“We have wanted to try this restaurant for some time. It is a little drive for us. So we tried it for the first time today. Verrrry good!!! We were served quickly, My brisket was great! The croissants are to die for! Travis was our server and he was warm, friendly and attentive. This will definitely not be our last visit!“

“This Cook Out location absolutely deserves five stars! The staff was amazing from start to finish—friendly, polite, and very attentive. You can tell they take pride in what they do. My food was prepared perfectly, fresh, hot, and exactly as ordered. It’s great to see a team working so well together and treating customers with genuine respect and care. The service was fast, the restaurant was clean, and the overall experience was top-notch.
Big thanks to the whole crew at the Hartsville Cook Out—keep up the great work!“

“I really enjoy the food but the customer service is always bare minimum. I also don't understand why you only give two packs of crackers for a large salad and two cups of chicken salad. then when I asked for more they immediately looked at my reciept and told asked me "did you have a salad" I replied yes and she said "well it's in the bag" got home and I have two packs of captain wafers. I hope you guys know those things are not made out of gold. as high as your prices are it would be nice to be able to get a few extra pack of crackers without be scolded.“

“Visited Wednesday night. Ordered steak. It was very good but it took a while and most of my party had almost finished eating so I just ate a little and got a to go box. Sadly, I left my box on the table when I left. I returned in less than 5 minutes and it had been thrown in the trash. This was totally my fault but I feel they could have waited a little longer to toss. Just putting this out there so maybe it’ll help someone else. Thanks.“

“Best pancakes in town! Making this our new breakfast spot for the weekend!“

“We had take out.Great chicken sandwich. The sweet potato fries were like stewed potatoes. I put them in my air fryer to get them crisp. I did think a sandwich and fries were a little pricy at close to $17. I will return but wiser in choices.“
