The restaurant is clean, open floor plan, not cluttered, natural light, and inviting. The little antique shop connected to the dining room made for a delightful lunch stop on our way to the beach. Our server seemed young and offered us produce that the owner grew in his garden instead of chips. I appreciate the healthier choice, but unless the owner has an indoor citrus grove those oranges are not growing in Trenton, NC. Also I had to ask for a drink refill and was surprised to find her hiding under the bar eating.

Prices were fair and portion sizes were generous. For dessert, they make everything in house and the brookie was my favorite. Everything came quick.

His wife and cofounder Gerri has kept the business cooking (pun intended). It's still among the best whole hog BBQ I've ever eaten - and I've eaten a lot. Grady's pork is amazing, especially topped with slaw and their Eastern NC sauce. The sides are incredible. The desserts look wonderful (have never been able to find room, but one of these days...). Prices are reasonable (but be warned: this is a cash-only place). If you're on the way to the beach, go to Grady's. If you're coming back from the beach, go to Grady's. If you're within 100 miles, go to Grady's. Heck, if you're anywhere on the East Coast, go to Grady's. It's that good!

So, I decided to look for unqique spots along the way and just by chance, found Morris BBQ. It's only open on Saturdays, and luck would have it, it was Saturday! I'll never forget coming around the corner along the highway and seeing Morris BBQ, with a crowd out in front. I love East Carolina BBQ, and Morris has the best I've ever had. They ship, so I'm planning on ordering some online once I get back to Oklahoma. A big thanks to the staff who were all amazingly friendly! I just love this place! ~David W.

Fly from Miami to Raleigh-Durham with the primary goal of visiting a barbecue joint that's a…read morethree-hour round-trip drive away, located in a small town with virtually nothing else to see, and you'll understand how I view food experiences. There was a very real risk of wasting an entire day. Thankfully, Skylight Inn delivered in a big way. First, this is the kind of place that attracts everyone: police officers, construction workers, families, businesspeople in suits, and that's just on a weekday. That's always a good sign and something I love to see. Their whole hog Eastern North Carolina barbecue was absolutely worth the effort. It was incredibly flavorful and packed with texture. The crispy skin is expertly mixed throughout the meat, alongside moist pork and just enough rendered fat to create a perfect balance. Every bite had something different going on. The sweet tea was excellent, the slaw was solid, and the picnic-style potato salad hit the spot. The cornbread, however, deserves special mention. Unlike what most people think of as cornbread today, Skylight's version is made with only stone-ground cornmeal, water, salt, and pork drippings. It's dense, chewy, and rustic. No wheat flour, no sugar, and no fluffy crumb. It may not be everyone's favorite, but it's a fascinating piece of barbecue history, and I respect that they're still making it the traditional way. I came. I saw. I ate. Then I bought three pounds to go and grabbed a T-shirt on my way out. That's about as strong an endorsement as I can give. PS.....Walking the grounds is fun as well.

They have a big space though there are also a lot of chairs and tables around. Food was good. The brisket was tender. Options for sides include mac & cheese, collard greens, string beans, broccoli, Spanish rice, potatoes au gratin, baked beans, coleslaw, fruit salad, corn bread, yams, french fries, etc. The coleslaw and baked beans were also good. For desserts, we enjoyed the bread pudding and peach cobbler. Would have given this place a 4/5 for food but service was really bad. Food took a long time to be served. This we understood because it was really a busy day. Because the cloth napkins smelled like rancid oil, we just asked for paper napkins. This took ~30 minutes before we got some. We also asked for some condiment. Since no one was checking on our table, we had to stand up and approach one of the staff to follow up on this, not once but twice but some vinegar never came. Though our server Gracie acknowledged and apologized for the bad service, service was still crappy and disappointing.
