Get yourself down to the Rowdy Rooster! It was a FANTASTIC stop…read more Monica was our server. She was friendly, knowledgeable and enthusiastic about the menu and was running her tail off the whole time we were there. None of her patrons waited for anything! She was QUICK! The wings were huge, meaty and juicy. The Foghorn Leghorn chicken sandwich was the thickest peice of chicken I've ever seen on a bun. The sidewinder fries were unique and yummy. The onion rings were great!! The dining room was very clean and so were the bathrooms. Plenty of condiments on the tables, too. My only *meh* is the cheap sysco cutlery. Just a nit. The people at the table next to us were raving about their burgers and hot dogs. Stop by!!

I really wanted shrimp and grits but it was going to be a wait due to the grits not being ready. I pivoted to something else. I asked not our server (who happened to be the bartender) but the person who delivered the food if there was any way to get a spot of grits whenever they were ready even if it was at the end of the meal. After finishing we were presented with a small takeout of grits which made the entire evening- they were outstanding. They recognized that they should have been ready and made up for it at the end. Nice way to tie a bow on the evening by being thoughtful. Hope to return.

The main building is a lovely and spacious modern inn that balances comfort and traditional elements with open and wide modern floor plans and bright spaces in a pleasing way while retaining the cozy fireplace experiences of more traditional settings. A first floor outdoor veranda opposite the main entrance stretches the length of the main building overlooking the well groomed hillside vineyards and a stocked, picturesque fishing pond. The hillside stretches up the horizon and with the westward facing veranda, offers stunning sunset views along with wine service. Below is a patio off the main restaurant and bar offering even more seating around fire pits with couches and Adirondack chairs with appetizer and drinks available for the bar/restaurant. We toured a king 2 room suite with a large sitting area separated from an equally large and well appointed sleeping area with a private large balcony that also faced the western sunset over the vineyards. The rooms were described as more akin to an apartment whereas the 9 onsite yurts accommodations were described more akin to a condo, described as pet friendly and a quiet community. Behind the yurts is a large barn structure that serves as a tasting room with an outdoor seating area with Edison lights strung around the overhang creating a warm space to enjoy the vineyards end production, currently nine wine vintages. Beside the main building are two much larger shaped yurt structures housing a full fitness center and a spa as will as an outdoor pool. We dined at Hickory for dinner and enjoyed their farm to table, Appalachia oriented menus. That will be a separate review but it hits 10/10 for hospitality, service, presentation and food excellence. We plan a fall trip for an overnight stay when the vineyards come in just before harvest to get the full experience! Also, we initially had a glass of their Chardonnay and being pleased with this, we opted to enjoy a bottle with dinner even though the wine list had equally excellent choices from familiar vineyards. This is highly recommended!

The bacon or sausage, egg, and cheese croissant is my go-to, and the biscuits and gravy put local chains to shame (lookin at you Cracker Barrel).The menu is a good size for a place like this, plus rotating specials. I look forward to trying more things. Their coffee is reliably good, and their seasonal coffee/tea drinks are creative and tasty. It's a quaint place with only a walk-up window and a drive through. Workers are always very friendly, and I've never had to wait long. We'll definitely keep coming back.

Our chicken salad croissant and spinach artichoke panini were both excellent. Although we were totally full, we still had to try the chocolate malt + buttercream cookie sandwich and made-daily cinnamon roll. Both had a really nice balance of sweet with a hint of salt. Cookie texture was perfect (crisp and chewy!) and the cinnamon roll was near perfection. That frosting could be a last meal request! And drinks with real herbs + fruit - YES please!!

The burnt ends were basically hard chunks of very dry pork bbq with some blackened spots but not crispy burnt ends in bite size chunks of good meat like last year. Also the brisket was very dry as well and the Cole slaw is quite bland. The grits were the bright spot as they were delicious. The server was super nice and attentive. For the price, it was not worth it. The meat should be much more tender and moist for $26. We will try other places before returning here again.
