    I used to be so-so about bar b que until we stopped into Briggs. We were warmly welcomed by a…read moresweet woman wearing an apron and told to sit anywhere. She was busy holding down the fort-taking orders and cooking too. I later learned that it was a family run business. I ordered the "spicey meatloaf" with 2 sides (there were a lot of side options to choose from). My two sides were fried okra and stuffing. She ordered the chopped bar-b-que pork with coleslaw and mac 'n cheese. We sampled each other's food with the satisfied expression of closed eyes and a 'MMMM" while eating. Everything was DEE-liscious! Wonderfully seasoned, great portions and perfectly cooked. It's one of those times when I wished that I had a bigger belly or a clone, so that I could try more food!...or pick up and move to Yanceyville NC! Other patrons asked a lot of questions about the other menu items. That's when I learned about their "black cornbread". The owner said it was her father's recipe. It uses black cornmeal and other spices. We took ours to go and later (really) enjoyed it back at our hotel. The owner/cook also gave us a sample of her chicken salad. It was so so good, seasoned wonderfully...more reason to be fatter to be able to eat more!! I would recommend anything and everything there, because I'm sure it's cooked right and with love! Thanks Briggs for helping me appreciate wonderful southern/BBQ food!

    We ended up trying Brigg's because it was on the way home from a weekend trip. When I walked in…read morethe door I was expecting your typical NC BBQ joint, but was surprised to find it's a Jamaican restaurant now. It looks like the restaurant recently changed hands and the new ownership is taking it in a new direction. Consequently the menu is a mashup of the old menu and Jamaican dishes. I was very pleasantly surprised with my curry chicken served with rice and cabbage. It was a typical Jamaican yellow curry with bone-in chicken and potatoes. The curry was very flavorful, but not spicy. In hindsight, I should have asked if they had some Jamaican scotch-bonnet hot sauce to spice things up a bit. The cabbage, cooked with ham hocks or something similar was fantastic; it was the best cabbage I've had in a long time. All in all, my meal was excellent. My wife tried the BBQ. The fries were cooked to order, the slaw was creamy, but the BBQ was a disappointment. I tried a bite and it reminded me of the sort of pork BBQ that you can buy in the grocery store. It was a definite meh, at best. My curry chicken was definitely a 4-star meal, while the BBQ rates 2-stars, so everything averages out to 3 stars. That said, I suspect that if you stick with the Jamaican menu, you're likely to get a 4-star or better meal. One last thing: If you pay with a credit card, they hit you up with a 4% upcharge. Disappointing.

    Power was out at home thanks to rolling blackouts, so needed a place for a hot meal on a cold…read moreChristmas Eve morning. I'd been following them on Facebook, and saw that they were open. I drove down, seeing that not much else was going on in downtown Reidsville, but a few cars outside the cafe. When I walked in, I was greeted immediately and informed that a booth had a wait, or I could opt for the counter, which I chose. I was presented with a menu and ordered a hot cocoa to sip on. I decided on the Carolina Sampler, as it was my first visit, I was hungry, and I didn't know when the power would be back on at home. Breaking it down by item..the scrambled eggs were the softest I've probably ever had cooked on a flattop, the bacon was crispy, the way I like it, the sausage patty was decent, but not otherworldly, the ham was a bit on the salty side, but better than too sweet. The hashbrowns were good, but I forgot to order extra crispy (been a while since I was out for breakfast). The grits, sawmill gravy, apples, and biscuits were all very good in flavor and texture, and the hot cocoa was rich without being too sweet. Definitely have to get the gf down here some time.

    The Carolina Cafe was a local spot that I saw on Yelp. It was packed! Elbow to elbow in there…read more It was the kind of place where the servers would call you honey and sweetie.

So, I'll give a much shorter review here. My girlfriend & I were on a trip down this way on Labor Day Mon., 9/7. Server & host were both nice. My hot honey chicken sandwich was excellent as was my sweet potato fries, which was worth the $2 upgrade for me. We liked in addition to nice, prompt service, at the end, she asked if wanted anything else instead of just putting the bill down (which happened to us 2 days earlier), and she went above & beyond by asking if we wanted to go cups of water. Pics are still included I uploaded on 9/10.

    Came in on a Tuesday night with my best friend for the $5 burger deal, which is a solid start. Just…read moreknow you are getting their standard burger with lettuce, tomato, onion, mayo, and fries. Simple and classic. We both made a few tweaks. She skipped the onions, added ketchup and mustard, and got a side salad. I kept mine simple with no ketchup or mustard. Food came out fast. Appetizer and burgers hit the table in just over five minutes, which was impressive. The burgers were good. Not over the top, but juicy and worth the price. The only miss was the bun. It was cold and could have used a quick toast or at least some heat. The house salad was fresh with lettuce, tomatoes, cucumbers, onions, cheese, and croutons. I tried to swap my fries for sweet potato fries and ended up getting both, so no complaints there. Just know the sweet potato fries count as extra. Fries came out hot and stayed hot. The sweet potato fries had a nice balance, not soggy, not too hard. The corn fritters were the standout. Crispy on the outside, soft and sweet inside. Service from Amber or Shannon was great. Attentive, friendly, and helpful. The only slowdown came at the end. It took longer to get the check than it did to receive the food. The space is in a reclaimed industrial building with exposed brick and high ceilings. Very large and open with plenty of room for groups and events. There is a main dining area, a busy bar, and a separate section with bowling lanes. The crowd was mixed. Families, couples, groups, people at the bar, even a few on laptops. Plenty of TVs and music, but it stays at a manageable level. Accessibility is decent with a lift available. Parking is nearby street or lot parking. Overall, a fun, casual place with strong value, especially on Tuesday nights. Must order: Corn fritters Heads up: Buns may come out cold and sweet potato fries are an extra

They had to gut the place and do a full reno. Owners are super nice and one used to be the head chef at The Undercurrent in Gso for 16yrs. The food- amazingly fantastic. We split the Monroeton Monster platter and we're completely satisfied. The potatoes were fire, the grits creamy and buttery, sausage and bacon were spot on and the biscuit with sausage gravy.... They serve breakfast and lunch on Friday and Saturday and run a catering business as well. One side of the store has a small market with take home foods and local crafts. Can't wait to come back for lunch. We'll worth the drive from Greensboro or wherever you are.

I ordered the Fried Chicken Biscuit with egg and pimento cheese. WOW. The biscuits are delicious, and I could immediately tell the chicken would be amazing based on the breading and seasoning. I also enjoyed the home fries. One of the cool things about here is that they also sell local products like honey, elderberry, and eggs. I bought a dozen for $6. Everyone here is so friendly! I love the coziness of the space and that they even have a little bar for seating! The hours are super limited so check before you go (Th & Fr 7-2).
