I ordered a water to start, but they were out of lemons. A bit disappointing, especially at 10 o'clock, since I always get water with lemon. I usually don't eat much for breakfast, so I decided to just get two hotcakes with a Conecuh sausage link. The food came out relatively fast. The pancakes were delightful. They were light, fluffy, and tasted similar to Cracker Barrel's hotcakes. The Conecuh sausage link was a great pairing. The owner came over to the table multiple times to chat with us, which was a nice touch. Overall: interesting exterior, decent interior, very friendly people, good food, and good vibes. Rating: 3.5/5

Service was super fast , the older waitress was working her tail off taking orders, serving, and even running the register. I got grits, pepper gravy, and sausage . My husband got 3 meats (sausage, bologna and crispy bacon) (bacon done right not floppy), homemade biscuits, scrambled eggs, and the best farm grown sliced tomatoes. They gave my husband the tallest cup of sweet tea I've ever seen anywhere. They also have for lunch a meat and 3 vegetable plate or even veggie plate. We plan on coming back for that. Unfortunately the floor was a bit sticky by the restrooms and just one woman stall. Hence the 4 * rating. It's open very early in the morning while most everything is not . We were glad it was walkable distance from Cornell's auto shop. My husband's truck had to be regenerated. It's a diesel and the ash had clogged the filter ugh. So if you are looking for home cooking and zero frills then pick this one.

We visited the Main Street Café in Clanton Alabama (613 2nd Ave N) today for lunch…read more They are opened Sunday thru Friday mainly from 5:30 am to 2 PM. They serve breakfast up until 10:30 am. They offer many choices for breakfast and offer menu and Meat & 2/3 for lunch. They usually have a daily lunch special also. The prices are very reasonable especially for the portion size you get. It is a seat yourself place and if you are looking for modern style, you're in the wrong place. If you are looking for a mom and pop small town feel, you hit the jackpot! We chose the meat & three today along with the daily special of buffalo chicken wrap. For the meat & three, we had pot roast, turnip greens, pinto beans, and butter peas. The meat and three comes with dessert and bread. For the wrap, you have a choice of grilled or fried chicken. It comes with fries and a drink. For a dollar more you can add a make your own salad from the salad bar. The wrap and fries were awesome. I think I'll try the Nashville hot wrap on my next lunch visit. The pot roast was nice and tender and well-seasoned. The vegetables were good but the turnip greens were a little sweet for our taste. We arrived a little after 11 am and once seated, our server greeted us and took our drink order. Our server was very friendly and knowledgeable on the menu items. Once we placed our order, it arrived at the table about 5 minutes later. Our server checked on us regularly. The Main Street Café seems to do a very large take-out amount. Dozens of customers entered the restaurant just for take-out while we were there. Parking is a first come first serve on the narrow two-way street in a business area. You might have to circle the block a couple of times to get a parking space close. You can check their Facebook page for the daily lunch specials. All in all, we were very happy with our experience, and we will be back for more.

They're only open on Saturdays and Sundays so you gotta catch em on the weekend. Seating inside is a bit tight but open for groups and there is bar seating. There are several tables on the covered patio as well. The service and the food are impeccable. Several options. You must must try the loaded grits and have a biscuit (maybe 2!) I even took a biscuit to go. The porkchops were huge, fried to perfection, and flavorful. Please be patient. They make everything to order, and perfection takes time.

We always ask the acid test question.....would we order these items again. We both agreed we would. Didn't sample any of the baked goods but they looked solid. I questioned the staff multiple times on multiple menu questions. All answered attentively and with concern. One staff member answered my queries and was so hospitable I my wife and I both thought she must be part of the ownership. Nope, just a lovely person who likes her job and offers great hospitality.

I recently stopped by Shoney's in Clanton, Alabama and had a mixed experience overall. I ordered…read morethe baked spaghetti, chicken tenders, a garden salad, and bread. The baked spaghetti was very good, well baked with plenty of flavor and the fried chicken tenders were also tasty and cooked just right. The bread was perfect: warm, soft, and easily one of the highlights of the meal. Unfortunately, the garden salad didn't live up to the rest of the food. The vegetables tasted like they had been sitting mixed together for a while, almost as if they'd been combined days earlier, so the individual flavors were hard to distinguish. The staff were pleasant and polite, though the service felt a little low-energy. On the positive side, the price was decent and fair for the amount of food. Overall, some items were definitely enjoyable, especially the baked spaghetti, chicken tenders, and bread, but the salad and slightly bland service kept the experience from being outstanding.

There are many of these locations down south and we passed many of them up last year when we traveled to Florida, we made it our mission to visit one and let's say "Mission Accomplished". We dined in of course and the inside was well kept with just a few dirty tables. The employee who took our order (James) made us feel welcome and has some of the best customer service attitude that we are not used to seeing anywhere else. It made the experience even more better. As we are waiting for our food we notice other people coming in and everyone seemed to know each other, customers and employees alike. Small town, everyone knows everyone. We both got their burger combos and they have crinkle fries here which I'm not very big on other than White Castle. They turned out to be really good. The burger was well cooked and the bacon was crispy on my burger. The only kicker, they were out of ketchup at the counter I let one the employees know and asked if I could get a few packets I only got 2, I brushed it off hoping it would be refilled at the counter and it never was. They weren't very busy either. We were very satisfied with our meals here, and wish we had more people like James behind the counter. He is a gem to that place and hopefully we see him again for our next adventure to Florida.

Their shakes are so cheap and pretty decently sized. Totally recommend stopping here on a road trip.
