Browsing through OrderUp I found Hotrodders Cafe, and thought I'd give it a try. Trying to keep the ordering and delivery as easy as possible I ordered the family meal of 8 pieces of chicken and two sides. I never expected it to taste so delicious! I wasn't able to eat when the food arrived, and when I was able to the food was already cold, but still very appetizing. The chicken was seasoned perfectly and still had a crunch to the batter. I almost ate the entire side of baked beans by myself they were so good, and I'm very picky about baked beans. I will definitely have to go to the restaurant itself to get the food while it's still hot. read more

I've been meaning to come here for sometime and just couldn't get it done! Finally my husband & I stopped by for lunch and why didn't we come here sooner!!! Literally the best cheeseburgef & fries I've had in many, many years. My husband wolfed down his club sandwich and fresh cut fries and I wasn't surprised, it looked delicious. I can't decide whether I like the fresh cut fries or the crinkle cut better, both were cooked perfectly and so yummy! Excellent service and my new favorite burger joint. read more

Was surprised that this place come down this low, the floors were sticky, the bathroom trash was over flowing, the hamburger buns were doughy and the fried green tomatoes were burnt, no salt on the tables either, I've always like this place, it was comfortable but not went it's this dirty and the staff are reading the new paper. I think two stars are being generous. read more

Good little dive with very friendly staff.. we sat ourselves and the waitress was with us rather quickly. I ordered the chicken salad wrap with fresh cut fries and my husband ordered the inside out burger with crinkle cut fries. His burger looked delicious and had a really cool brand on the top. He said it was really good which coming from the foodie that he is, that means it is worth going back for.. the chicken salad reminded me of the kind my Nornie use to make, it was prefect and not to soupy or over mayonnaised! I would give it five stars but the fresh cut fries were disappointing. They were not piping hot or crisp like the crinkle cut! I stole a crinkle cut or two from my husband and definitely wished I had gotten those! Loved the decor and will definitely go back! Even bring my parents as my dad lives old cars and good dive food! Would have liked some oldies music as they played mostly this generation. read more

My son and I have been here twice now and the food is aaaaahmazing!!! Lot of homemade items, breads, buns, and desserts....the Bay burger (hamburger with crab cake on top) was to die for!!! The food just melts in your mouth....he got the bacon cheeseburger and it is just overall so enjoyable...then we had to try dessert...the homemade banana pudding is the best!!!! We previously ate breakfast here...delicious pancakes....this is definitely our new to us favorite place!! read more

My favorite thing about this place is that it feels like it is family owned & operated. I prefer to support a local small business owner. The food was good. We had the sampler platter & I don't care for okra so I can't say if it was good or bad. I didn't care for the mushrooms either (usually one of my favorites but i think these were just frozen ones). The other items on the sampler were good/average. I would not get it again for the price. Now onto the good stuff... the burgers were really good. The boys liked the flavor & the buns. The fries were as hoped. I had the salad & it was a big portion. Loaded with toppings. It was clean & you could tell they have pride in their restaurant. It's car theme is great. You can tell they care about your experience. I will visit again. read more

First time here and we were warmly welcomed with a "hey y'all! Sit wherever you're comfortable!" We were quickly served with really yummy down home cookin'. The collards, Mac n Cheess, and bread pudding were DELISH!! We'll be back! read more

My kinda burger joint A small hole in the wall restaurant that serves good food with a smile.

Ate here a few days back and just... WOW. Does Yelp have a six star review button? I love food and have been to almost 40 countries across the world. I can honestly say that the food here is among the best I have ever had, literally, in the world. Don't hesitate. Go. Go now and eat. Bring a friend. Or two. Or twenty. Bring lots of hungry people. It's owners are passionate about the quality of the food they prepare and you can tell in every single mouthwatering bite. #AmazingFood #ComeHungry #TryaBurger #FriesAreToDieFor #LoadsOfVeggieOptions #CantWaitToTryThePasta read more

Ok so had been past the place a lot over the past few months and finally decided to try it out tonight. First the staff is by far the most friendly staff I have ever had. The food was delicious.

If it wasn't for the vintage cars, hotrods and motorcycles out front it would hard pressed to differentiate the place from the dance studio a couple doors over. Atmosphere: If you're wanting to get blow away by the decor or succulent dishes then you might want to go elsewhere but if you're looking for a welcoming place filled with returning friends and motor enthusiasts you've hit the jackpot. Built for locals the checkered tables, pictures of patrons automobiles adorning the walls, plasticware and cheap plates finish of the restaurants feel. Food: Went here for breakfast and although it was good cooking it's not anything to write home about it. None of the homemade items tasted any different from a Denny's or an IHOP. Overall: Clean, basic and comfortable, Hotrodders Cafe is good food at fair prices but a great place to visit with friends. Although, I didn't find the food as good as other more gourmet breakfast stops I found it hard to give this place anything less (or more) than 3 Stars. If you're going to Hotrodders for the first time be sure to visit during a warm weathered weekend so you can enjoy as many of the cars and cycles as possible. read more

That inside out burger was so dang big and tasty!!! Fries were great as well. Fantastic service, will definitely be back and recommend. Cool seeing all the hot rods on the walls, even people I knew. Check it out!! read more

Neat, clean, local, affordable and tasty. Two out of two thumbs up from me. There's a real chef cooking in what at first glance appears to be just a diner kitchen. The Chesapeake crab cakes were outstanding. Hamburger and BBQ buns are made in the bakery next door and branded with the restaurant initials. Good BBQ. Tartar sauce is made in house (not purchased!). Friendly staff (although still a little new at interacting with the dining public). This is an unsuspecting restaurant hidden in a strip mall but worth trying. read more

Awesome good here. I'm glad I stopped by today out of the blue. The seasoning of the food was great. Nothing was to salty or food wasn't over done. Everything was to perfection. I'm actually speechless. I'm trying to find something wrong with my food and I can't..... A++ read more

We've been trying to find the time to get here for over a year now, and I can promise you - we will NOT wait this long before going back. To say we were impressed is a huge understatement - Hot Rodders is through the roof amazing. Walking in the door, the decor is absolutely charming ... walls are filled with pictures of various autos - from classics to modern - taken in front of the restaurant. Old vinyl 45's are suspended over the top of the counter, and a wooden Elvis greets you as you meander back to the restroom area ... Condiments sit tidily in classic car holders ... cute, adorable and a step back in time! The menu is the same - so many classic dishes that take you back to those days of sitting at your grandmother's kitchen table - and the taste and quality makes you think you truly are! I ordered the pork chops - fried of course, with mashed potatoes and gravy, and one of my favs - collard greens ... oh my! The pork chops were boneless, so tender you could almost cut them with a fork, with a slightly crunchy breading that added both texture and flavor to every bite ... the gravy was perfectly seasoned, covering mounds of mashed potatoes that were definitely homemade. And the collards were also perfectly seasoned, the flavor bursting with a delicious smoky bite coupled with a hint of mild saltiness. My daughter ordered the sausage which she said is hands down the best sausage she's ever ordered from anywhere - and she has ordered sausages everywhere from Maine clear down to Florida! It was topped with cole slaw - also a thumbs up from someone who really only likes my cole slaw. She said the macaroni and cheese was nothing short of heaven in a bowl ... I wish I could give this place 10 stars because they deserve it ... from a friendly welcoming staff, to amazing food and a nostalgic decor, you simply can't go wrong here! read more

We had burgers, chili, a Reuben, and CORN NUGGETS!! I've searched high and low for corn nuggets And they were delicious!! We will be back again and again! read more

My husband and I have been going here pretty much since the place opened. The menu has your comfort food basics (hamburgers, hotdogs, club sandwiches and such) but they have daily specials that rotate so often you always feel like there is something new to try. They have a breakfast menu that will make you forget about national chains, and their seafood menu is pretty much a mermaid's dream. Portions are a great size for the price that you pay and you never walk away feeling unsatisfied. But that's not even the best part. The service has always been warm and welcoming. After you've been there once, you are family. They learn what you like and will even make suggestions when you have that "I'm hungry but I don't know what I want" days. They welcome you with open arms and give you the kind of service that makes you feel good, even when you are having a bad day. If you've never gone, go. If you have gone, go again. read more

Great local diner in the area. Classic diner food with fun decor inside. The prices are fair for the portions provided. Friendly staff and good food. read more

We stumbled upon this place on our way to Bergey's farm and as a car guy, I had to go back and check it out. I dug the place, my 3 year old son loved the display with all the hot wheels cars and my wife loved the old 50's music that really set the atmosphere. It was rainy and cold, so they were pretty slow, but our waitress was super friendly. The food was cooked to order and surprisingly tasty. It's a bit of a drive, but if the weather's good we will try to make it out on the weekends for some grub and socializing with car people. read more

I had the pleasure of eating here on Friday with my business partner. We have eaten here a number of times and every time the experience is very good. The owner of the restaurant greets us every time we come in she talks to us wants to know what's going on how we've been and so forth. It is nice to help support a small business and interact with the owner she definitely cares about the quality and portions we were given and always ask for feedback what a great way to grow and improve your business. I have no problem recommending this as a great place for the family for dinner or just a place to catch a beer on Friday afternoon. read more

This place is phenomenal!! Great crab cakes, fried pickles and macaroni!! The crab cakes have little filler in them. The desserts are also out of this world. Give them a try!! read more

Had lunch here today for the first time. I had been hearing great things so I could not wait to try it out. Not many people in today I am sure that has something to do with the fact it is Christmas Eve. Anyway everyone working was really friendly even thought they had to be there and not at home today. The burgers were just as I had been told great. I am not sure why just a homemade fresh bun makes them taste so much better but they are really good. Had no room for dessert today, but I will next time because I have been told they are great also. Look forward to my next visit. read more
