The service is on point, super kind and very friendly. Everything about the experience feels warm and special.

It's the kind of place that makes both kids and adults smile. Whistle Stop is truly a hidden gem and absolutely worth visiting. Whether you're stopping in for something sweet, bringing family, or just looking for a place that feels joyful and unique, this place delivers. Highly recommend!

You go here for the kids, be it a quick lunch, a birthday celebration, or the like. For a birthday celebration, this is THE SPOT my grandchildren want to go. This is a nice clean restaurant, set up for entertaining the kiddos. For me, the food is okay, for a child, it offers all those foods the children love, with the key being, those ridiculously obscene shakes, the variety of which appeals to even that inner kid of every adult too! The staff is excellent, they are quick, efficient and know exactly what it takes to keep those youngsters engaged as they anxiously await the arrival of that "special shake", they might have ordered.

Publix is known for their commitment to quality products, produce, and excellent customer service…read more The past couple of years, the various Publix locations that we've visited throughout Alabama, Florida, and Tennessee have unfortunately been a hit and miss. This Publix, however, has maintained its commitment to excellence. In particular, their customer service has been unwavering and what we've come to expect when visiting a Publix (shoutout to Terri and Maddison who have been amazing). This is the best Publix in this area. They always have items in stock, specials are clearly labeled, and the store is clean and organized. Their hot bar for lunch and deli counter is routinely stocked, looks fresh and clean. Definitely try their chicken tenders or any of their delicious Boar's Head sub sandwiches if you haven't yet. Don't pass up their produce either. They have the best tasting watermelon, pineapple, and cantaloupe. Their bakery is PHENOMENAL too! You will find the best baked goods here that rival the best artisan bakeries. Grab yourself a package of Calypso Cookies, or order yourself a Strawberry and Peach Sensation Cake or Vanilla Almond Cream Cake. You will not be sorry! Also, stop by the sushi counter for $5 sushi on Wednesdays (a great deal)! This will continually be our go-to Publix in the area. Keep up the great work!

It feels like that's the solution to not having enough staff. There was a party inside and outside so we chose to sit outside. It took a few minutes before we were greeted and drink order taken. I went ahead and placed an appetizer order of Zucchini blossoms also because I sensed it may be a while. Surprisingly it came out quick. Then my wife and I both took a bite of one and mine was cold inside and hers was still frozen. Saddened they were not freshly made. Notified staff who was super apologetic and then about 10 minutes later a fresh order came out. Thankfully these were cooked all the way. Finally our meals came out. My wife ordered the Ruben with a side salad , which she enjoyed and I had the patty melt which also was good and a side of pesto pasta salad. Overhaul the staff was nice and the food was good but nothing really stood out to make this a place that I would have to come back to, couples with slow service I do not think I will be returning any time soon.

This is absolutely unacceptable. Whoever made this sandwich should be fired This entire restaurant should be investigated. I was not even aware that it had as low as a score as it did already, or I would not have eaten here or ordered a sandwich from here. This is the most slap together disgusting display of laziness and carelessness I have ever seen from any fast food worker or sandwich place worker whoever did this ought to be ashamed. This sandwich was supposed to have lettuce, olives, cucumbers, veggies, tomatoes, all types of stuff on top of it and way more meat than this as well. It's not even evenly distributed as you can tell. It's literally slapped on there chopped up thrown in a box and sent out the door. I cannot believe people like this exist and work at this firehouse subs you guys should be shut down and investigated. The date that this happened was September 5, 2026 whatever manager is there or if anybody there has any sort of sense you should find out who made this sandwich and they should be fired.

While my diet is not specific to either, the Village Market has been a great place to find many health food items, Mennonite produce, and bulk dry goods.

We complimented the store manager and he said this is just the beginning. There's a lot more to come. I'm looking forward to it.
