Every time we visit our family in North Carolina, we have to stop here to have breakfast. I always get a bacon egg and cheese. They also have so many different combinations you can come up with for your biscuit. I also started following them on an Instagram they just made and they also have French toast and pancakes. That's on our list next time. This place is so awesome. It's only a drive-through and the service is so quick. It's a small little Mom pop shop that you could get quality biscuits.

These are not your typical light and fluffy buttermilk biscuits. No, these biscuits are thick and dense, but in the BEST way. And they are HUGE!!! I ate off of my bacon, egg, and cheese biscuit all day long - literally. It took me that long to eat the entire thing. I don't know how people go here and order more than one item with a biscuit. I was STUFFED! This place is a true gem and a definite must try! While it may not look nice and fancy on the outside, don't let that fool you! The staff are some of the nicest, sweetest, hospitable people you'll ever meet! And you know a place is good when the line is literally down the street! Seriously! It moved so fast though! I'll definitely be back the next time I'm in Wilson! FYI - this place is cash only! No cards accepted.

We ordered the double cheese burger (comes with meat chili, onions, cheese and mustard) and one double hamburger with lettuce tomato onion. The double burgers were 1/2 pound. We also ordered some house made coleslaw. We sat at the one booth and we served very quickly. Our burgers were really good, the burger itself tasted good. The coleslaw was also a big win. We had 2 double burgers, coleslaws and 2 fountain drinks for 22$, great value and great taste. It is a true locals place run by a family. The family pictures on the wall and everyone coming in seems to know the staff. They have a drive through which also keeps them busy. It is not a fancy place but has a family lunch counter vibe. Well worth our detour off the interstate.

And they even have a drive thru for the restaurant. We walked in and it's a small little spot but the ladies in there are all hustling in the kitchen. They have a variety of items on the menu and at 11am it switches to lunch. We had just made it to get a bacon,egg and cheese biscuit. The biscuit had so much flavor and just that classic North Carolina biscuit taste. We also loved the hoop cheese that is from NC. We definitely will be back. It was adorable and delicious. Thanks to the girls for making our breakfast!

This is an absolutely wonderful place and a mandatory stop if near Wilson/a place to put in regular rotation if within a 50 mile radius. It's clean, the staff pleasant and just take a look at those donuts. They speak for themselves. First up - Remove the previous review? Absolutely not. It will give fellow Yelpers something to read while munching on lil ol Wiltzen's Ace in its back pocket, and they may possibly thank me for being the nudge needed to give Wilson Doughnut Shop a chance, or two (or even three like we did) if merely closed for reasons that defy you-the-reader's logic: These donuts are worth the effort. Nothin worth having comes easy, right? Right. Besides, I'm not a Karen. If they're not open when you stop by, it's ok to be sad, just don't give up. Now that we've established the hours and days of operation may not make sense to some - donuts/doughnuts; tomatoes/maters. Interchangeable and of no relevancy. Right away you'll notice that is not Hershey's chocolate or some store bought crap chocolate-flavored, corn syrup industrial mess drizzled over the donuts. This is chocolate how chocolate should be done. Not too sweet and not too bitter that all you taste is cocoa. Of note: If you associate Hershey's, Godiva, Ghirardelli or any other main stream mass produced 'not chocolate but called chocolate' product with what chocolate is supposed to be like, the color is going to be a little off putting to you. Live a little. It's good. The actual dough? Dense and just the right amount of greasiness to drive home the fact these are made fresh on site every morning. The Long John's were good enough to fight over so get two if you have any respect for fellow man: These were built for sharing. Actual cream filling and not some low brow jello pudding mix - I was impressed. The enormous honey buns and cinnamon rolls are included in the price for a dozen so let your "I wanna try em all" run wild. Nuke em later in your microwave and slice like a pizza after supper with a cup of coffee. The most visually appealing were the strawberry filled which are the most difficult to pull off in the land of donut snobs. Great dough they have down which is half the battle. The filling? Well...Really good as is. I am far from convinced that was entirely made from scratch using even frozen berries and a basic gelatinous base for a proper jelly filling BUT I wouldn't turn one of em down. Working with nothing but what they already have, should they ever combine a Long John and a Strawberry Filled donut to make one Chocolate Strawberry something or another? Whew I'mma be one broad back havin... Nevermind. Y'all, go. Get a dozen, minimum. You will not be disappointed. God willing and the creek don't rise I will be back.

Our next stop on our foodie adventure in Wilson, North Carolina visiting family. We went to the…read moreWilson donut shop. My grandparents frequent this place every weekend so we had to check it out. I ordered a few donuts, the chocolate covered cream puff they call it. It had chocolate glaze and a sort of fluffy buttercream inside. It was a little too sweet for my taste, but it was tasty. My favorite was the strawberry jelly that only had powdered sugar on top because a doughnut is so nice and fluffy with the homemade strawberry jelly and not too much sugary glaze on top. But I highly recommend getting the little donut holes that have the blueberry mixture in it. That was the The Best doughnut they have in my opinion. For fall, they had cute little pumpkin shaped cinnamon sugar donuts. For breakfast, we ordered a bacon egg and cheese croissant because they were out of biscuits, but I hope to try those another time. My husband also ordered a biscuit with fried steak. And it was very fresh and made to order. But it definitely needed some sauce or ketchup or something to help with the flavor. Everything was such a quick service and got all of our food to go. The best part is the prices of this place is very good and you could feed your family of 4 for under $30.

My daughter got chicken tenders and fries and they were good, my ex got pot roast and that was amazing! If I could create a new sampler with some pot roast, meatloaf and chicken and dumplings I'd be sold! I don't even like meatloaf but love Cracker Barrels meatloaf.

You walk in and the young HS or College Busboys/waiters are lined up waiting to assist. It has to be one of the most nostalgic things gs I've seen in a long time. The sweet tea is southern pucker sweet & perfect!! There's malt vinegar on the table for collards, and the NC vinegar based BBQ sauce was very good. However, the chopped pork BBQ did t really need any help, it was just as good on its own and not mushy. I even enjoyed the yellow coleslaw, it's a mustard & vinegar base and tasty. The Brunswick stew could have been heat hotter, but it had a decent taste with plenty of meat & veggies. I would definitely drive out of my way again to share Parker's with my 15yr old who missed this road trip.

My husband and I stopped in for an early breakfast and were not disappointed. This charming little spot is full of Southern personality. It's not fancy, but you're welcomed the moment you walk through the door by the friendly ladies behind the counter, and it immediately feels like home. The menu includes classics--along with a few Southern staples that were brand-new to us as New Yorkers, like "backbone and chew bread." We didn't try it this time, but based on the crowd, I'm sure it's delicious! I ordered fried eggs, bacon, and grits, while my husband went for fried eggs, bacon, hash browns, and toast. Everything was cooked just right, simple and satisfying, but what truly made the meal memorable was the warmth and hospitality. The space itself adds to the experience--filled with quirky chicken décor and a handwritten menu on a whiteboard that adds to its cozy, old-school charm. It's the kind of whimsical little hole-in-the-wall that feels like a warm hug. If you're in the area, I highly recommend stopping in. It's not just breakfast--it's an experience, and one that captures the heart of true Southern comfort.
