Restaurants in Pickens

“I met Freddie at the Aiken Farmer's Market this past Saturday. Being completely honest, I wasn't intending to stop by his booth, as I was just finishing up and leaving the market; but he invited my friend and I in to chat coffee, and boy, am I glad he did! Freddie's knowledge and passion for both horses and coffee, as well as his ability to engage and connect, is absolutely delightful. I know next to nothing of horses, but as a fellow small business owner who donates a portion of profits to my preferred cause, I couldn't help but feel a deep appreciation for Freddie's mission. Anyone who has that much heart and compassion is worthy of my attention for at least a few minutes! Now, as far as the coffee itself - Freddie took the time to explain various aspects of roasting, processing, etc., and I walked away with a greater knowledge of beans (of which I always figured I had a decent understanding - but there's always more to learn!). As a decaff drinker, I purchased a bag of "Brazilian Royal Select Decaf – Medium Dark Roast," and made a cup the following morning, with a dash of half-and-half. It is 🤌 *chef's kiss*! Smooth, just the right amount of dark/richness for my taste... I have zero complaints, and all the praise. Since moving to Aiken almost two years ago, I've been searching for a local coffee roaster who just "gets" the importance of keeping the beans as close to natural as possible (no chemicals, no added flavors, etc.), and I think I found my guy. If you see Freddie at any local markets, be sure to stop by for a chat - you will leave satisfied, I can almost guarantee! 😊 Thank you, Freddie, for your welcoming aura, your passion and knowledge, and for creating a quality product in which I'm happy to indulge! 🤤☕️”

“Aunt Sue’s is so amazing! This was our first experience eating here. Initially we stopped by for a coffee but found that they were serving lunch in what felt like I was eating lunch at my granny’s house! The food was delicious (especially the chicken fried chicken)! There are gift shops and an ice cream shop as well! Can’t wait to come back and try the breakfast buffet!!”

“We had a wonderful lunch. The food was excellent as were the owners. I had the pull pork platter with Mac and cheese and baked beans. my husband had the Cubano amazing. My husband also ate my coleslaw slaw and he said it was delicious. We will definitely visit again and again and again...”

“Fantastic Pulled Pork Sandwich, wow!! Great sides and portions, you’ll be full of need a to go box! Highly recommended. 💯🔥”

“First time in, meal was good and service as well. Will go back.”

“Good service and decent prices”

“Wonder Mother’s Day lunch topped off with a delicious free dessert!”

“My new favorite is the Burrito California. It is DELICIOUS.!! It has chicken? steak? shrimp ? rice beans pico and melted ch”

“The wife and I came here for lunch and it was very good and very affordable. I feel like most hot dog shops these days over charge for their food but Heidi's was not only good quality but it was a good price as well. I got a fire dog and sizzle dog and the wife got a sizzle dog and kraut dog. All of them were very delicious. Will be back again!”

“We love the weekend breakfast buffet. The price is great, $10.99/person. The food & customer service is top notch. This is our new go-to for weekend breakfast dates.”

“The food was delicious once we got it BUT, there was one Waitress handling bar orders and food! We waited an hour to get a glass of water, another 30 minutes to get our bar order! Food finally came out 35 minutes later and it was very good under the curcumstances. It appeared that all food orders were coming from the restaurant upstairs! The Waitress was very polite and did an AWESOME JOB! This was a Friday night, with an event at the Ampetheater only a half block away! SHAME ON THE OWNER OF THIS ESTABLISHMENT for putting the Waitress in this position. Please don't come back with being short handed, YOU must know that 1 Waitress can't tend bar, get orders, keep the tables serviced and keep the drinks coming! No, this group from Greenville won't be coming back. AGAIN, SHAME ON THE OWNERS for not planning ahead and putting that young lady through a very stressful UNHAPPY HOUR! Donna Reece”

“Live music, bingo, karaoke, pool tables, daily drink specials, 🔥 bartenders”

“Service was amazing, Cherish was very attentive and accommodating. Drinks are amazing and there is a great list to choose from. Everyone able should come check the place out.”

“My husband and I ordered dinner from this establishment. When he got there to pick it up he realized he forgot his wallet and we were going to come back and a sweet young lady name Josie said she wanted to pay. We wanted to give her money but she said no. Such a Kind thing caring person and we will return the pay it forward chain. We were having a not so good night and God came through someone else’s heart. Thank you so much from the bottom of our hearts Josie.🙏🏼🩷”

“I would drive hours to eat here. The food is always amazing and the service is even better. There really isn't an atmosphere here, since they changed it to take out only. But that won't stop me from coming here because the pizza is the best in the world”

“Hannah and Waylon are the absolute sweetest! Great customer service and great atmosphere. The coyote ugly add scoop of peanut butter! and salted white coyote are a perfect drink for a great day!”

“My coworkers and I grabbed lunch yesterday and it was great. Great service, so friendly and helpful! Will definitely be back!”

“Ava, Jade, Cadence, and Jada went above and beyond to demonstrate excellent customer service. I had a flat tire and they made my visit enjoyable and comfortable while I was arranging tow service. I would highly recommend this location.”

“We've been eating here since moving into town. The customer service is exceptional! I enjoy a smile and friendly tone whenever entering a restaurant and they never disappoint. The food is good and they've got a variety of items on the menu. Not to mention the cleanest I've seen in a while. Great job!”

“Ann and Steve are a much needed team and asset in Pickens. Thank you for all that you do!”

“the Chinese food was excellent and would get the tacos again”

“Good people, great food, cold beer!”

“My husband and I drive from Anderson to meet my brother. He was flying into the Pickens Airport. So it was the only place that served home cooked breakfast. The food was good and our waitress was amazing.”

“The Pickens BK is by far the best one I’ve been to. Every time I go by they get my order right and in a quick manner. The inside is also always clean. The staff and the manager Mrs Joyce are awesome!”

“We eat at Panchos once a week. Love the food, service and atmosphere.”

“I just ordered 2/22/2025 at 3:58pm. I ordered 1 baby club plate with half n half o rings and fries, 1 turkey club sandwich and a BLT. for $32.02 I received the baby club, with just fries, (2.75 upcharge for plate half/half) burnt toast on 2 of the 3 sandwiches and day or two old bacon on all. No repeat of order via speaker/microphone. #30:Julie was whom took the order. We will not be coming back. It's a shame since our family lives only 2 miles away.”

“Great customer service! I had the gyro plate. Bread very tough so ended up eating insides with a fork.
Was taken aback by the hamburger I asked to go being $ 8.50 but it was worth it!!”
