Great Country Diner…read more Located a bit off of I-77 on Hwy 901 West is Chip's Cafe. A favorite with locals and now one of my favorites. Stopped in because someone had recommeded Chip's because of the great Hush Puppies. Without anymore detail, you think Hush Puppies in the areas and you are talking about either a Seafood Restaurant or a Bar-B-Que joint. Turns out Chip;s is much more than that. The special for the night was Salt and Pepper Catfish so we both decided to give it a try. She ordered it along with rice and grave and another side of fresh slaw. I had potato salad and okra with mine. She had the Hush Puppies and I had Texas Toast. Out of this world. The Catfish was some of the best I have ever had. Large, moist, flaky, flavorful filets that melt in your mouth. Forgo the tartar sauce and just go with lemon and it's great. Potato salad is very good but could use just a hint of more mustard in the dressing. Service is great. Very friendly and helpful and they did a great job. As for atmosphere, what can I say. It's a country diner where everyone is welcolm and everyone feels instantly at home. Highly recommend for local and travelers but be aware, it's a little over a mile off of I-77 westbound but well worth the trip. Will be back

I am not such a big fan of southern food but this was freaking PHENOMENAL!! That's saying a lot coming from me! The people working there were so sweet and food came out so fast! My boyfriend and I shared the country fried steak with gravy (my first time having it), mashed potato's, and fried corn bites, and shared the fried catfish with fries and coleslaw. Every single item was the best southern food I have had!!! Will forever be recommending here and will definitely be a life long patron whenever I come to the mountains!

The fish had an amazing coating, it was very flavorful, but not overwhelming, the fish was flaky, and cooked to perfection. I Loved the hush puppies. My husband ordered meat loaf, cabbage, pinto beans, and collard greens. He really enjoyed his meat loaf, and collard greens, we both liked our cabbage. This was honestly the best meal I've had out in a while. We will definitely be eating here again while we are in town. I wish I had taken pictures.

My friends and I took their kids here for a late lunch after the awards ceremony at the first…read moregrader's school. It was a Wednesday around 1:15pm. We were seated right away, because the restaurant only had a few customers at that time. We placed our drink orders, which came out pretty quickly, then placed our food orders. We sat waiting and waiting for our food. The oldest child got a salad, because he had ordered a pasta dish. They brought that out first. He is a very slow eater, but still managed to eat the entire salad before our food came. The dad of the couple ordered their seafood platter. He picked up a popcorn shrimp when the food finally arrived, and it was cold and soggy. He checked the rest of his food, and it seemed fine. He called the waitress over and asked if they could make him a fresh batch of shrimp, as his were inedible. They agreed to do that for him. The mom and one son got the buffalo chicken wraps, they were pleased with them. The son that ordered the pasta cleaned his plate, so we know that was good. The young daughter was sitting next to me and had ordered the kid's popcorn shrimp meal. I checked her shrimp after her father's were so bad, but found them to be hot and not soggy. It almost seems like they made his shrimp early and it sat around waiting for the rest of the food to finish cooking. I ordered the marinated chicken breast with macaroni & cheese and cucumber salad as my sides, with cornbread as my bread. The cucumber salad was by far the best part of my meal. The chicken had been butterflied, which meant it got overcooked. I laughed that they gave me a steak knife with my plate, but it sure came in handy! The mac & cheese was basic and the corn muffin they gave me was drier than the Sahara. Even the butter I put on it didn't help. I will say one thing, the portions are huge! When they set the kid's plate in front of the daughter, we thought they had mistakenly given her the adult portion. But the check had it listed correctly as a kid's meal. The wraps were huge. Both the mom and the son took half of theirs home. The seafood platter was overflowing with food. The pasta dish was a good size portion, as well.

By the…read moretime we got settled in, dining options were pretty limited, so we searched online and this spot looked like the best choice -- and we're glad we found it. When we pulled up, there was a police outside, which didn't bother us. If anything, it made things feel more secure. They also use a metal detector when you walk in before being seated. Don't let that scare you off though -- this place is a well-oiled machine and everything felt organized and under control. Our server was fantastic: calm, attentive, and never pushy. I ordered the country fried steak with collards and mashed potatoes with gravy, and my husband got a burger. My meal was excellent, and it came with a perfectly flaky biscuit. The tea was Southern SWEET tea, too. My husband said his burger was good for a diner, fresh vegetables and the fries were seasoned well. The diner itself is adorable, full of character and charm. Overall, we had a great experience and would absolutely come back.
