Probably the nicest people I have ever met in my life. Best vibes from staff and fellow customers. Southern home cooking just like mama makes, actually better, lol.

Today we ate at Mel's Café. We were welcome by a very high energy and knowledge waitress. She gave great service with loving humor which we enjoyed.Now the food was off the chain, if don't know what that means, the food was delicious. My girlfriend and I did not know what to eat first.Mel's was just the place we were looking for, local owner, great food and great atmosphere.Wheelchair accessibility: They made sure I was comfortable

I loved this place! It's a tiny little place that seems to have been around forever, the food is outstanding. Might take a little time to get it because they cook it all fresh but well worth the wait! I had the celebratd fried chicken, fried potatoes and onions and mac & cheese. I had to try those three things and I'm glad I did!

Visiting from out of town and woke up late from our stay at 1 of the local resorts. Decided to get brunch at this little hole in wall restaurant, which had good reviews. Needless to say, the Omelet was awesome and the fried potatoes was Off The Chain! We live in Richmond VA but we plan on comming here when we are in the area.Vegetarian options: We got the omelet without any meat and all vegetables.
BEST FOOD WE HAD ON OUR ENTIRE 10 DAY VACATION!!! If you like Southern Food this IS The Spot!! Great Friendly Service!! And the food was beyond delicious!! Very Very Very Highly recommended. ?

A little bit of a restaurant with only a handful of tables. The breakfast food was like home cooking and enjoyable. You ordered what you wanted to eat at the window and the restrooms were outside in the back of the building. I think more customers ordered to go a s parking was limited.
