“9 out of 10. The food was fantastic no missed spots. The service was excellent. Our server was knowledgeable and friendly. The prices were pretty great to be honest. I was expecting it to be more expensive than it was. I think for me my only issue would be that it’s a slightly cramped space and it’s kind of a little too fast paced for my preference.“

“Their food is well curated, gorgeous to look at and delicious to eat! Their offerings are also so healthy and nutritious too! I love their food. Pleasant, responsive staff. If you haven’t tried them, please do! I think you’ll love it like I do!“

“Laury’s provides a phenomenal experience every time we dine here. This is mine and my husband’s go-to dinner for celebrations, birthdays, or just when we want to ensure we’ll have an amazing meal and enjoy the ambiance. I recommend this restaurant to everyone for the ultimate fine dining experience. Laury’s is by far the best dining experience not only in the Charleston area, but I would go as far to say out of anywhere we have dined. Ever. We travel regularly and are always trying out new restaurants, but nothing compares. We have tried nearly everything on the menu and whether you are ordering their least expensive dish to their most expensive steak, you cannot go wrong. Laury’s is truly the best!“

“Got seated right away, so that was wonderful and not always the case. Make sure to call for reservations if you can. My chicken dinner was really good and my Wife said her salad was fantastic. If you're really hungry, may want to consider and extra side with the grilled chicken. You can thank me later.“

“Food was excellent.Also I had an excellent server.Her name was Emily,need more servers like her.“

“Had layover long driving stops in charleston a few times past couples years and made this my go to takeout breakfast burrito spot after the first time. Last time took a wrap for lunch on the road and hit the spot. Fantastic staff. Fantastic food“

“Had lunch today for takeout. The enchilada soup was delicious and spicy. The Turkey Pesto wrap was delicious and a good size. Will definitely be returning!!“

“We were hosting a fundraiser for 150 people and knew we needed something special for our first year event. We found EXACTLY what we needed at Thyme After Time Southern Cuisine and Catering. It is truly southern comfort food at its finest! The buffet spread was delicious, but their prosciutto wrapped, asparagus, were so flavorful and the beef and sweet potato skewers were a show stopper! I highly recommend Thyme After Time for your next special occasion. Their staff was friendly professional and really worked hard to create an unforgettable dining experience.“

“I’ve been going into this location for several months in the morning. The young man with the salt and pepper hair is always so polite and nice. He makes my whole experience so much better. He remembers what I buy every morning and has it ready and waiting for me. Great customer service from this young man! I’ve had previous experiences at this location that were not so nice and stopped going for a long time. He makes my day a bit brighter. Kudos for such a pleasant person Cold Spot!“

“Always an 5 star experience!“

“Fish and Chips , Summer Salad with Salmon was wonderful!“

“The food was awesome, everything was good. I had, jalapeño cheese sticks, cheeseburger, sweet tea and cornbread.“

“Welcome to West Virginia in this, the only airport shop. Here I met a huge stuffed Sasquash, T-shirts, West Virginia apparel, UWV souvenirs, and Marshall University knick knacks. Besides vintage postcards, and souvenirs, they offer local products made in local small businesses.
I had to have the grilled cheese sandwich with bacon! This changes grilled cheese forever.
Great shop to grab those souvenirs as you leave town.
Accessible open venue. Accessible mens and womens restrooms close by in central airport. Van accessible short-term and long-term parking in paid airport lot.“

“Quick, friendly service. We had a minor issue but the server Jen took care of it immediately. The manager Ian came over and made it obvious that it was a one off and not normal. We left feeling completely satisfied! Excellent lunch/dinner choice near the convention center!! A+++“

“When they told me they had separate fryer that was dedicated to gluten-free, I was sold. And the food and service was amazing! I have celiac disease, and for the last 25 years going out to eat has always been so hard (with risk of getting sick). It’s still often that I get confused looks when I mention “gluten”, other places…but to have a dedicated fryer or cooking area that never happens! That made my night.. super delicious! Cannot wait to go back!! 🙏🥳“

“Descent Sports Bar. Lot of TVs which was good. Wings were good big and done right. Adelphia Hot Sauce wasn't to hot kind of Buffalo sauce with some sweetness. Tried several beers on tap and they weren't very good but had standard selections as well. Good atmosphere quite a few people in there. Servers were great. Elizabeth bartender very attentive and spot on.“

“We got to watch a deluge and lightning 🌩 storm from the comfort of our table at Applebee's near the big mall outside of Charleston WV. Delicious meals and appetizers and good company. Our server was nice and always ahead of our requests for drinks and anything else we needed.“

“We need the other french fries back please!!!“
