Cute little diner in a small southern town. We would come back…read more My first impressions: Small, cozy, friendly, bright and clean. My friend had been here several times over the years and suggested we have lunch here. We popped in on a Tuesday early afternoon. The menu offers typical southern fare, and a solid breakfast selection. Nothing super-extraordinary, and everything familiar. Something for everyone in the family. My friend ordered the burger all-in, and I opted for a buffalo chicken wrap. My friend said that the burger was great, but that the home cut potato discs needed to be drained off a little more (they were very greasy). My wrap had real chicken breast, super fresh, lettuce, and tomatoes, but barely any shredded cheese and zero buffalo sauce for that matter. One of the ladies behind the counter, noticed my questioning facial expression, and immediately asked me if I needed something, and kindly brought me a little cup of sauce. I was amazed that they had regular hot tea (being in the south, tea usually means sweet tea, which I'm not a fan of). Our lovely server was on top of our beverages and brought everything so quickly and with a smile! This place was so clean, from the common dining areas to the bathroom! Gotta love that. Unfortunately this place is not wheelchair friendly (tiny bathroom, even difficult for able-bodied and larger-bodied persons to navigate). Also, sides are extra. My wrap was $10.50... surprising that this doesn't include at least a handful of potato chips or fries. Biggest plus? The sweetest staff and great vibes. The ladies really seem to work together well.

Mac's Diner is exactly what a proper Southern diner should be--unpretentious, friendly, and full of…read moreflavor. It describes itself as an "easygoing spot offering a menu of breakfast and comfort-food classics," and it delivers on that promise completely. I had the daily special: a fried pork chop with red rice and fried okra. Every bite was perfect--crisp, seasoned just right, and full of that old-school Southern comfort you can't fake. The red rice was deeply flavorful, the okra was golden and crunchy, and the pork chop was everything you hope for when you see it on a chalkboard special. Inside, it's a cozy, classic diner setup with a counter lined with barstools and a few booths nearby, then an adjoining dining room with plenty of tables for larger groups. The big daily specials board is a nice touch and adds to the hometown feel. They serve breakfast and lunch only, closing at 2:30 p.m., and from what I saw, breakfast must be worth the early trip. One of my dining partners ordered a hamburger--it looked phenomenal, thick and juicy, and he was more than happy with it. I also noticed a small dessert selection, including red velvet cake, which fit the Southern theme perfectly. Service was excellent--our server was prompt, polite, and attentive, never letting our glasses dip below half full. On the way out, we met the owner, a very pleasant lady who clearly takes pride in the place. Mac's Diner has a large, free parking lot and an atmosphere that instantly makes you feel at home. I highly recommend it to anyone passing through Holly Hill or anywhere nearby. If I lived closer, I'd be there for breakfast regularly. This is Southern comfort done right.

My mom and I have wanted to try this place for a long time. Finally made the trip and it did not…read moredisappoint! She ordered the Chicken and Waffles, I got the Shrimp and Grits, the kids got Chocolate Chip Pancakes and French Toast. I tried a little of everyone's food and would order every meal again. I have had Shrimp and Grits places where the gravy/sauce over powers everything and is almost like soup, but here it was perfect! The Chicken and Waffles was a huge portion that my mom and I decided we may split next time. It was super delicious and she let me take her leftovers home( insert happy food dance)! The resturant is kind of small so it does get to be a little loud and crowded. Don't be surprised if you have to wait for a table. There is plenty of artwork and stickers all over the walls to keep you entertained while you wait. The corner by the bathroom has a small selection of local products like grits and honey along with stickers, shirts and hats for the resturant. We will definitely be repeat customers!

Their pancake is delish! I only got one because they are huge! They cooked my egg perfectly- I like…read moremine scrambled soft with cheese. I got the side of bacon and it was cooked just right. My friend got the French toast, which I tasted. It was not my favorite, but they give you lots of toast pieces. His came with ham and eggs. Bottom line: we both enjoyed our meal. There was a half an hour wait and the hostess did not seem pleased that we took a walk and weren't back at our appointed time. Service was adequate- there was only one server for our entire section. The place is not that big and the wait was 30 minutes on a Sunday at noon. It's your typical diner set up.
