Just plain old good country cooking. The food is like having dinner that mom made..nothing fancy. Just good homestyle cooking!

Good Lordy! If this place wasn't 40 minutes away I would eat here for every meal. The food was phenomenal! Family owned and great service. I will definitely be back. read more

Midway Meal House - Country fried steak with fried okra, cucumber salad, and turnip green. - American Near Me - Alpharetta, Georgia

I took two friends, first timers, on Sunday before the church crowd hit. Hunter was our server, and he was OUTSTANDING in every respect. He was fast, polite, swapped out special requests with a smile and accommodated our every request. He should be working in a 5-star restaurant, because he has the skills and personality. Oh, and the country cookin' was on point. Meatloaf, mashed potatoes, fried chicken livers, fried okra, yummy corn muffins and sweet tea just like mama used to make! After lunch, it was time to take a nap! And my friends can't wait to go back. read more

This is our second time here. The first time was months ago and delicious. The first time made a good impression so we decided to come back. I got the Sunrise Breakfast Special. The bacon, biscuit, grits, eggs, and pancakes were delicious. But the hash browns were oily. Drenched in oil. I was super hungry and I ate all mine but it wasn't like any other hash browns I have had before. The top was crispy. But the inside was soggy and tasted like soggy strips of potato. I saw some oil drain from the hash brown and it got on my biscuit a little. We also got the Country Omelette. The picture shows all the liquid that seeped from it. Service was good because the issue was taken care of by replacing the omelette. The atmosphere is authentic and a chill place to eat for breakfast. We sat inside but they also have a patio with a cute cat outside. read more

Food is always hot and tasty, size of servings are generous. The staff are all friendly and helpful. It's like eating at your country grandparents home. Very "home made country food" ! read more

Comfort food in a comfy setting. I went here during their breakfast hours, and wow! That was some good home cooking. We got the Sunrise Breakfast Special. It was only 10.85 for two pancakes, sausage, hash browns, bacon, toast, and grits. It's a good bang for your buck. Probably the cheapest breakfast my husband and I have paid for while being out and about. You're able to seat yourself when you arrive and your waiter will come up to you quickly. I think this is a great breakfast spot. I can't wait to come in and try their lunch menu. Also, keep in mind this is a small business. I didn't find a website anywhere but they do have a Facebook page that seems to be pretty up to date. So if you need to double check if they're open, I would check there. read more

the oysters were outstanding Such a great bar Bartender was amazing Great place to watch sports hope you enjoy read more

It's like you have been transported back to 1994 when you enter this place. I mean for the price, it is tough to beat. The setting is an old house and I have sat both outdoors on the wrap around porch and indoors at one of their many tables. The clientele is mostly older folks, but there are some younger folks that work here. The menu has all your favorite breakfast fare. My favorite has been the beef hash and egg breakfast. It is a large portion and was a bit salty, but otherwise a full, filling meal. The gravy here is amazing and has a solid, thick consistency. The service is good, and they really leave you alone to chat, very good at "reading the room" or your "table" in this case. read more

Great for breakfast too!! Now I need to go for dinner! I had over easy eggs with corn beef hash. My friend had the fried pork chops and I think I'll have to try that next time! The wait staff are awesome, and the food is always good. Can't go wrong here. read more

SMELLS LIKE CAT URINE!!!! Claims the vegetables were homemade but they are clearly canned vegetables Cornbread was burnt and I watched the waitress heat the rolls and cornbread up in the microwave read more

We have eaten here for years. Always enjoyed the country cooking, from an independent business. We like FARM FRESH! And normally found it here at reasonable prices. Today the food was just so so but the room was very warm, admittedly it was a HOT DAY! We were told the air conditioning was not working properly, The tables were all packed as usual. I assume it still has the same owner and staff on hand. Everyone there have always been very attentive in the past. I'm sure the heat was hard on the servers as well! Perhaps they needed to get a repairman or some fans. We decided to wait for cooler fall weather before our next stop back in. Don't count them out! We have had WONDERFUL meals here in the past! read more

Midway Meal House - the roosterer cows, the hen deliverers - American Near Me - Alpharetta, Georgia

This place is a favorite for us! Everything is always delicious and budget friendly . Staff is always polite and on point

For me great food and prices. Short on staff but have to blame government paying people more to stay home. Still not a very long wait.

I love the Meal House - great breakfast spot! Been in Cumming forever. They serve up good "Home Cooked" meals in a nice southern atmosphere.

They have the best yeast rolls outside the Perimeter. They serve up very generous portions.

Not worth eating here unless you like food that would be served at a nursing home. In the car leaving my husband said "I can't remember the last time I was this disappointed in a meal." We love good southern home cooking, and this place just fell short. Service is very good, friendly, prompt, attentive. The staff certainly fit the theme of a southern home cooking restaurant. They knew patrons by name, call you sweetie, and make sure to give you everything you need. The food came out very quickly. I had the country fried steak with gravy. It was decent, but I wouldn't seek it out. The Mac n cheese was gross and flavorless. I'm not sure it even had real cheese in it. The Mac and cheese was cold on top when I got it. The rest was lukewarm. The green bean casserole was very unique. It had sliced almonds, onions, pimentos, and a very thick sauce that almost tasted like gravy. Husband had the chicken, Mac and cheese, and fries. Wasn't thrilled by any of it. Meals come with your choice or rolls or cornbread, or one of each. I would skip the dry cornbread and get the rolls. I overheard a waitress say that you can order a half portion of something, maybe the hamburger steak? read more

Have eaten here in the past and enjoyed it. Today I sat for 15 minutes and no one even greeted me. read more

Very good country cooking at great price. Always enjoy the country fried steak. Prompt service

Been coming here on and off for years for dinner and it's always quite good, some of their dishes they really hit out of the park. After viewing the breakfast menu online I was really excited to try it. They don't allow online orders so I started calling just after 10am, but their phone line was constantly busy. I tried for almost an hour to get through and by the time I finally did, it was 11:02. The woman said they had stopped serving breakfast at 11, so I explained, but she would not take my order. I protested that I'd been trying to get through, and she hung up on me. I'm the daughter of a restaurateur and I don't care if you have Michelin stars -- that is no way to treat a customer. I wound up trying A&M Kitchen, which is a lot closer to me, and it was very good and a lot closer to my house. Midway has lost my business. read more

Food is terrible. Food is not homemade, rather from a can. My husband ordered a veggie plate with cole slaw, squash casserole, macaroni and cheese, and cream corn and I had fried chicken mashed potatoes & gravy and macaroni and cheese. My husband is like a garbage disposal, he'll eat anything, and he could not finish the food. While the food was terrible, the service was good. read more

After years of trying to get my husband to visit Midway Meal House with me, he finally relented today, but boy, was I sorry! We could hardly eat any of our food. He had the ham steaks, and I had the large fried shrimp. We chose different vegetables to share. The corn muffins came out first--they were warm and yummy. Then the food arrived. Both meals were by far the worst we've had in a long, long time. The ham and shrimp were barely edible, and the veggies not edible at all. They tasted like they came straight out of a can--no seasoning, no warming up. Our waitress assured us that every dish is "homemade" but not by any Southern cook I've ever known, and I've lived here all my life. We won't be going back--ever! read more

Fried Chicken- My family went here after my niece's soccer game at Webb Gin Park. We were raised on southern comfort food so collectively we thought this restaurant would be a good choice in the Alpharetta area. I ordered the Southern Fried chicken with green beans and cucumber-tomatoes salad . Sweet tea and a fresh biscuit complements the meal as it was hot that day. There was outside seating and the inside decor was definitely had an old south house feel like you find in Helen and the North Ga area. My family agreed that the food was hot and delicious! I can recommend this restaurant for down home fresh food like the now defunct Folks restaurant use to provide. read more

Good food but service was VERY slow. Took 35 minutes to get our food. We were here for breakfast. The sausage is yummy and spicy. Gravy is very good. Biscuit delicious. Pork tenderloin over cooked. Syrup for the French toast was cold. Can't completely recommend due to the slow service. read more

A local friend wanted to bring me here to experience true southern food! Sweet tea - is pretty standard, but good. 7/10 Yeast rolls - very yummy! 9/10 Mac and cheese - meh. Reminds me of Kraft 1/10 Collard greens - better than Mary Mac's!! A little salty and super tasty. 9.5/10 Fried okra - good. 8/10 Fried Chicken - very very good. 8.5-9/10 Chicken fried steak - TO DIE FOR! O.M.G...10/10 Creamed corn - creamy and tasty! 8.5/10 Black eyed peas - good flavor! 8-8.5/10 Green beans - decent. 4/10 Green bean casserole - so so 3.5-4/10. Too creamy for my tastes. Blackberry cobbler - you HAVE to have it with ice cream. Vest way to finish the meal! It's extremely good. 8/10 read more

The good - quaint farm house feel with pretty good/ok food that is inexpensive. Friendly service staff. Great pancakes that my kids liked. Food came out fast and hot. Great biscuits. The bad - they don't have butter or cream/half and half. Instead, they have "real butter flavored" 48% vegetable oil spread and coffee mate fake creamer. I ordered over medium eggs, came out over easy. Bacon is thin and cheap. Over all, this is nothing special and I won't be in a rush to return. read more

Midway Meal House - Country omelette and all the goodies with it!!!! - American Near Me - Alpharetta, Georgia

We've eaten breakfast here several times. Prices are reasonable, good portions. Eggs, pancakes, biscuits, bacon, sausage, hashbrowns. Servers are friendly and attentive. Lots of return customers. My only negative comment is that the farmhouse atmosphere needs some TLC. The exterior of the farmhouse is in need of repair. I understand they are going for a rustic look, but there are areas that are definitely in need of repair (paint, broken railings, etc). read more

Love everything about this place! Food, of course, atmosphere and service. They are my go-to for comfort food - dining in or taking out.

The only thing good about this place is the service. The food is horrible! I had a simple pimento cheese sandwich for lunch and they put enough cheese on it to make 3 to 4 sandwiches...complete greasy mess! Also, I came home and got sick My husbands burger tasted like they used a bottle of Worcestershire sauce in the beef. Granted we didn't order the veggies like most, but the table next to us must've not liked their food either because they left their veggie bowls 3/4 full. read more

The food is delicious. This is an old home converted into a restaurant. The homey feel just adds to the overall quaintness of the place. We had lunch there and I have to recommend the chicken fried steak. The gravy was perfect. I also had the dressing with giblet gravy which was seasoned to perfection. You must try the cucumber/tomato/onion salad. It has just the right twangy taste I like. The sweet tea was great. read more

Great. Reliable and consistent.wish they would expand closer to Roswell. If there is a similar type restaurant in Roswell, I'd like to know.

Home cooking done right chicken livers fried so tender and nice and helping Size was plenty to share if I had wanted to.

We made it a point to order pick up Meals at least weekly many times twice a week. It was our intention to support this locally owned restaurant and we liked the food. Would order the same entrees with specific details as to no salt separate containers for veggies from the fried catfish ( it's not edible with soggy liquids from the vegetables ) No Mayo on the BLT . Several weeks ago picked up order and checked the Fish order found the Styrofoam box floating with liquid from the veggies turned the fish into a soggy mess. When I pointed this out to the server she shrugged her shoulders and said she told the owner they needed more help. No offer to redo the order do I left and when I got home tried to eat the fish meal. It wasn't edible ! Then we found there was Mayo on the BLT. We specifically asked for no Mayo weekly as my wife doesn't eat Mayo. So suddenly I found I had paid for a meal neither of us could eat. Had to throw out both meals. Waste of Money after over a year of supporting these folks. Havnt been back and don't intend to any time soon. We refuse to support A business that does not respond to customers needs after we supported them for so long. There appears to Be a attitude of " slinging hash" to make a buck and ignoring customers Specific orders. ( Soumds like a McDonalds review doesn't it. ) So BEWARE the contents of your order And the attitude displayed by server of really not caring ( apparently expressed to them by the owner). I'm ashamed we spent so much Money supporting these folks Who apparently don't care about once very loyal customers. Have to admit missing the Food but can't bring myself to paying them for a meal we cannot eat which we had to feed to our trash can. read more

I started coming here when last I lived in cumming and then had a need to visit from Tucker every so often. I've moved back and get to go for breakfast a few time a week. It's an old farm house, turned restaurant. The waitress have been here for a while, which speaks volumes.. they must great their people well. You won't leave here hungry! Omelettes are great and loaded with fillings. Then there's the grits and gravy and biscuit. It's a place you need to visit. Becoming a regular again, and getting to see familiar faces, it's becoming like family. read more

I'm a bit out of place, but I'm used to it by now. If you ever happen upon yours truly, then chances are pretty good that I'll have a band shirt on that may appear inappropriate, but if you know me, then you'll know there's more to it than that. Well, our visit to the Midway Meal House was no different. We walked in and you'd think an alien just landed inside. The older crowd gawks and squints to read my shirts, but it's all part of the allure. What I'm getting at is that I don't usually fit in, and some time it affects the service we receive at certain establishments... a test if you will. Story-time aside, we were seated inside the old house immediately. I peruse the menu and find something that fits my chubby pie-hole. The food was well-cooked, not over-seasoned, which I assume is appease the masses, but a quick dash of hot-sauce or pepper can remedy this. The food is just plain good. Simple, but well done. The service matches the food as well, with prompt and courteous service and a smile done right. As we are catching our collective breaths, our server drops off the check and to my bemusement, I notice the amount. I asked the server if he missed an item on tab, because it just didn't seem like it was enough. I asked again to make sure and his response was that "this was their price and why they have so many repeat customers" which is a damned nice breath of fresh air. Seriously, I've been driving past this place for years thinking that it was just going to be cafeteria food repackaged for senior citizens. The senior part is correct, but cafeteria food it is not. It's just well done food at a more-than-reasonable price, which means that we'll have to return soon enough! read more

Blackberry cobbler is served in a fair sized bowl that will prove enough to satisfy any appetite. The brownie ala mode is enough for 4 to share and will send two directly to Jenny Craig. A 3 inch square decadent warm ultra dark chocolate comes adorned with whipped cream pearls and a contrasting cold scoop of premium ice cream. It's rich but not so sweet as to prevent a large spoonful taken in one bite. It's difficult to imagine eating a full plateful of fried chicken, vegetables and corn muffins and following up with a big dessert but we did. Supper will be tomorrow! Service is cordial, engaging and warm. It was like being at a family dinner and instead of telling you the broccoli salad was all gone your Aunt Emmy leans in and whispers she had saved a potion for you cos she knew how much you liked it. Vegetables here are abundant and delicious. read more

There are very few meat and two or threes around here, so we were extra pleased to find this place! The bigger surprise was how good the food is! We both ordered one of the 3 daily entree specials. I ordered country fried steak with gravy, squash casserole and tomato, cucumber and onion salad. It was absolutely delicious and such big portions. My husband had the fried chicken entree and he said it was as good as the Paula Deen restaurant we ate in several days earlier! Eating at Midway brings back fond memories of eating dinner at grandma's house. Can't wait for a return trip! read more
