Was a good excuse to see Hampton's cute downtown as well as get a really good bite. When I saw the special board I sort of wanted that salad.... And I was told there was one quiche special left. But I was hungry so I asked about getting half a panini (turkey with pepper jack) and half that special salad. Was bummed they had run out of feta, but moved to the potato soup and that was such a good move! Left there full and happy!

My motel's breakfast left a lot to be desired so I was looking for alternatives. The Red Rooster was the only place, except for McDonald's that was open. When I entered, there was a table of locals enjoying their regular morning gathering. I was greeted by the hostess who was also the waitress, cook, and clean up staff. I need to say that I was well attended and the breakfast meal was good. It is a very comfortable place if you are acquainted with small town pleasantries. Cash is the only way to pay. But it is very affordable.

We had nice shade on a not too hot day and took the opportunity to hang out bit after we finished our meal. This was a tasty and pleasant experience of good value overall.

Be prepared to show a little grace, there were a lot of cars turning in there as we came up to it- from the food, I'm guessing they're always busy! My wife chose their mainline burger (no cheese) and house fries. Honestly, I think we could tell how good it was going to be when got out of the car and that awesome charbroil smell overwhelmed us. She loved it. I had the Chipotle Bacon cheeseburger on Texas toast, well done for me (they will prepare to your liking), which is charbroiled, then dunked in their home made bourbon sauce and served with Swiss cheese and jalapeños. The fries have some type of coating that makes them a little crispier and a little tastier. Even if you're cruising up I35, it's worth the detour into WC for a great meal. Plenty of tv's but even with a crowd, you can still have enjoyable conversation at your table. It's no wonder one whole wall is covered with "best of" awards. They deserve them. Bon Appetite!

Their version is the perfect thickness, and deep fried to the magical moment when it's still tender inside and has a great crisp bite every time. And it was $7.95 with a side of homemade hash browns that were also cooked 'just right'. An incredible meal that I plan to make a regular stop on my eating out rotation. This is a family restaurant that has been owned by two sisters for the last 15 years. And they both are terrific cooks, as is the other regular cook there. It's a true value priced small town place and the servings are generous. It's about a dozen miles north of Waverly. They also have daily 'supper specials' (see attached photo) - including broasted chicken on Wednesdays and Saturdays from 4:00 pm til closing. Five deserving stars. Don't miss this gem. Most HIGHLY recommended!

Cute interior space, but most people when I was here were coming to pick up and/or take to go. Packaging was a bit lackluster and basically just clear cups with a paper sticker on them that dissolved in your hand as your cup became covered in condensation. But you can pay extra for their cuter designed reusable bottles, which ehhhh. I got one of their "Fijian" drinks with lychee jellies, which is like a full proper fruit drink since none of their milk tea options really excited me, and an Oreo smoothie for my boyfriend. We both liked ours and there's not a ton of other options in the area, so this'll do!
