Great little country diner. This place has been in business since before I was born, and it will likely be here long after I am gone. You simply cant go wrong with the breakfasts- my go to is the 2 eggs and sausage, get the biscuit and some butter and jam, and it is always good. For lunch the double burger with cheese and whatever toppings you like (I am basic with catsup and mustard only), the fries are excellent and crispy outside, soft inside like they are supposed to be. You can also score the Chuckwagon which is… well, just get one, it is at least as good as the burgers (can you tell we have been going here for most of my life). The popcorn shrimp is excellent as well, crispy outside, nicely cooked inside (not over cooked and rubbery). Almost everything I have ordered from the menus have been really good. If you are in Reidsville, stop in amd grab a great bite.
