We had a nice lunch of delicious southern fare at this little noontime spot. They are no longer open on Thursday for supper. The interior is old and the ambiance is of locals at older tables & chairs greeting each other in southern style hospitality. We arrived around 11 and there were several people there but as we sat and it got toward noon, the restaurant filled up and it was nearly filled when we left. The choices are not huge but everything comes out hot and fresh! The choices were hot fried chicken, hot chicken fried steak, gravy, delicious greens, lima beans, stewed tomato's, mashed potatoes, black eyed peas, rolls, various desserts one being buttermilk pie which was yummy!! There were other offerings that I might have forgotten. The staff seem like wonderful people...courteous and attentive. The price is reasonable. The locals love it there and that says a lot!!! The hostess greeted people like they came every day. We will be back to see what else they offer!!! read more

We eat at Nick's fairly often--sometimes in house--sometimes take-out. The food is always delicious, and we highly recommend.

We were visiting the area and were lucky to be there on a Thursday night for the once a week evening buffet. The actual buffet area is very small, but they kept it pretty well stocked. The collard greens, mac 'n cheese, and house hot sauce were divine. The chicken fried steak and fried chicken were good, but you have to be fast to get some. It's very crowded and people stay and chit chat rather than letting someone else have their table when they're down. read more

When it comes to succulent, flavorful, tender collard greens yo' Granny wished she could have cooked, I am the Picasso of potlikker, the Grandmaster of Greens, and Sultan of Southern Soul. Away with your comic book recipe, Paula Deen! My greens are real life, a feast for the eyes and a balm for the body and soul after a day's hard labor, especially when served with a proper pone of my cracklin' cornbread. Imagine my amazement at finding, in a tiny buffet line, greens that are at least 90% equal to mine! Additionally, their creamed corn is way better than any that I've eaten anywhere else. Other veggies were standard fare. Nothing fancy here. But, oh, them greens! read more

Excellent southern comfort food. Attentive service. Great desserts. Come hungry and leave ready for a nap.

Very good homemade comfort food. Family run business - owners were really nice and work hard. Very casual atmosphere - don't expect fancy menu items here; they serve the classics and do it really well. Great value. Loved the buttermilk pie! read more

What awesome old southern food with great service all you can eat. It's busy so be ready to stand in line.

Best fried chicken in Glynn county. Meat and three. Always fried chicken. Other meats change daily

If you're a local you know all about this spot. Many may not want to share this hidden gem but it's a must for southern classic comfort food. It's straight forward service. Walk in, find an open table and make your way up to the buffet. Don't underestimate the size of this buffet. It's small, but that keeps everything fresh and and hot! read more

This is my kind of place. Nick's is frequented by locals and is only open for lunch. It offers a small buffet of down home food for $8.95. The food is southern fare and outstanding. Highlights were the beans, fried chicken, banana pudding and sweet tea. Just like Grandma's (except no pickles). Go early because it fills up fast. This is an new must for my visits to the area. read more

Absolutely, hands down, the best fried chicken in town!!! I eat chicken all over town, but Nick's has the best without a doubt. Keep up the great work folks. I love it and the chicken livers!!!! read more

Nicks is a pretty good meat and three located on the Darien Highway. Their menu changes daily. read more

We had lunch here today and it was wonderful! We were looking for home cooking and that's exactly we got. The icing on the cake was this: they only take cash or checks which we didn't realize until we were already inside. The owner said to us - if you'd like to go ahead and eat, you can drop the money by later or even next time you're here!! Who does that? It was southern hospitality at its very best. We did take the $$ by after we finished eating. read more

Down home food at small price. Like eating Grandma cooking. Fried chicken and macaroni and cheese that's great. Eat all you want. Bankers and ditch diggers eating at neighboring tables. Talking to your next table giving you the gist of the friendship factor of Brunswick. Don't be shy. Be yourself and have a great meal read more

I'm not from the south, so it still feels like winning the lottery to me when I happen upon a southern food buffet of this caliber. From the outside, Nick's looks like it was once an auto body shop, and I drove by it once before realizing that this might be a good choice for lunch. The big black steer outside should have tipped me off. I tried quite a bit of what was offered on the buffet the day I went for lunch...fried chicken, chicken fried steak, mashed potatoes and gravy, mac and cheese, collard greens, black eyed peas, biscuits and gravy...and everything was good, although I didn't care for the cornbread, which was too sweet and sticky for my taste. The menu changes daily, with at least two proteins available and more sides than you'll comfortably eat. The only problem this restaurant has is keeping up with demand, and that's a good problem to have. We were the only strangers here the day we went in, as everyone stopped by eachothers' tables to say hi and catch up, so it seems that most people in Brunswick know about this place and frequent it. Nick's is only open for a couple of hours at lunch time, so plan accordingly. read more

This is an amazing treat for lunch. Home-style cooking, and PLENTY of it. Get here early if you plan on having a seat! This place fills up FAST and consistently. My favorite items here are the fried chicken and the fried cube steak. SO good! A nice treat? Banana pudding made with actual bananas. read more

Great country cooking and great value! We go there almost every Thursday night for their fried pork chops. Their fried chicken is some of the best you'll find too. It is priced just right at $9.95- which includes your drink and tax! The buttermilk pie is outstanding too! The only thing I don't like about it is that it is so difficult to leave there without eating too much! read more

Fried chicken porkchop Tuesday are the best.. Love the sweet tea

Went on a Wednesday for lunch. Heard about the country fried steak and figured I'd give it a try. The buffet itself is a bit small and during busy times the turnover is fast. So that means fresh food. On a scale from one to ten I give it a six. The steak is not actually a piece of steak but kind of like a Salisbury steak breaded and deep fried. The Mac and cheese was very good as well as the greens. People are friendly and it appears to be family run. Mom and dad cooking and the the kids serving and cleaning. Also you can top off the meal with a bit of cake and banana pudding. read more

Regular food for regular folks in a family friendly restaurant. A bit of a who's who in town eat there. Ocra, pork chops, potato and sweet tea... Mmmm read more

Worst buffet ever..!! But great southern hospitality. Caters more to older people. For $9 buffet, I'd go to B&J Seafood in Darien.

Great food just like his brothers. well worth it.

Best place for some southern food and to meet some really great people. A lot of the same people frequent Nick's so you really start to feel like a family. Best fried chicken I have ever had. read more

It's a decent place to go for a cheap buffet. The food ranges from mediocre to good. I usually go a few times a month but more for the price than the quality of the food. Most if it is straight out of a can with little or nothing done to it. The mashed potatoes are instant. The desserts are never anything great. The squash casserole is particularly good, but they only have it out one day a week, I forget which day. The fried chicken is usually good, but I have been in sometimes when it was bland. They are only open for lunch except they do have dinner on Thursdays. They are closed on weekends. read more
