Service: upon arrival a VERY warm and gracious greeting (despite the map saying "closing soon")…read more Food: VERY good. I ordered Fish & Shrimp dinner with potato salad and slaw. Shrimp were delisioso! Catfish strips were acceptable (I liked them more than I expected to). Potato salad and slaw are homemade ... and quite yummy. Hush puppies were mighty fine! Ambiance: most tables were taken and apparently filled with locals with lots of catching up to do... and do... and do. Sure got quiet after everyone left (and I was not pressured to leave). Extra: there's a geocache in their parking lot! Who could ask for anything more Service bonus: waitress was especially kind and sweet and helpful and courteous.

Helen and I both went to The University of Alabama (Roll Tide!) as did her sister, brother and…read morefather. As you might imagine we go to some UA football games. Coming and going to and from the games can become pretty boring. We like to mix it up a bit and take highways instead of the interstate. We choose different ones to keep it interesting. One of our trips took us through Greensboro Alabama and we were hungry. I looked online at the restaurant options and found M&M Mustang Oil Restaurant was a meat and three type of restaurant with southern food. That's right up our Alabama hearts. We headed that way. Did ya know that Greensboro Alabama is the Alabama Catfish Capital? No?....... Yep! So guess what I just had to have! Good ole USofA raised Mud Cat! It was delicious! That was almost a year ago and we have been going back ever since. This was our third time to go. I have had the catfish plate and the Po-Boy. Helen gets either 3-4 of the sides or the catfish plate which comes with two sides plus hush puppies or cornbread. We also have had the Cheese Logs and the Fried Mushrooms. Everything is delicious! The Cheese Logs are by far the best cheese sticks we have ever had. Talk about molten cheese! Mary (server and cook) uses pepper jack to make the logs. They are slap your grandma good! Onion rings-terrific. The coleslaw is too. If I had to find something it would be that I like my purple hull peas cooked down, way down, like all day cooked down. These are good but just not how I eat them. One last thing. Every one of the tables has home preserved peppers on them. The juice goes great on the cornbread and the peas. Even the coleslaw is better with it. I dare ya to pull a pepper or two out and pop em in your mouth! Especially the tiny sport peppers. They will burn you twice, coming AND going, if ya know what I mean. Go on, don't fret about what it looks like inside or out. You are going to get some delicious food and you will thank me later. Do not forget the catfish. Unless it is an off day it will be the best you have plopped into your mouth!

I've stopped here quite a few times while traveling. This location has a Chester's Fried Chicken,…read moreHardee's and GodFather's pizza. From the main store cashiers to the cashiers where I grab my pizza (I do enjoy the pepperoni pizza), the encounters have been good. First few stops I have used the restroom, it was really clean and I was impressed. Recently, the cleaning has been questionable. I think it may be due to timing and the amount of foot traffic. Overall a good travel stop to fuel up, grab food and snacks.

I only made it an hour from Tuscaloosa before I had to stop for refueling and by refueling, I mean…read morethat I needed a fresh bottle of water and a bathroom break. The parking lot is reasonably well lit and the gas pump area certainly is. There was no trash to be seen. Inside, the store was well stocked and the bathroom was clean. Ideal. After my purchase, I moved into a slightly darker area in the parking lot, put up the windshield screen and took a much needed on hour nap. It was quiet, no one bothered me and afterwards, I was ready to hit the highway again. [Review 15971 overall - 189 in Alabama - 1476 of 2021.]

There aren't very many options in Greensbo', Alabama (in my Forest Gump voice). Bubba's Shrimp…read moredefinitely isn't an option. I was in town for a couple of weeks and The Stable was a staple in my diet during my time there. I ordered several times during my visit. I tried the breakfast wrap (with turkey although they forgot the turkey), cheese and veggie pizzas. All were good. My favorite item was the Harvest Salad (added avocado). It came with a lemon vinaigrette which wasn't too overwhelming. Everything is made fresh to order so it takes a while. (That's not a bad thing.) They do take call in orders. The staff is always friendly. It's a super casual small town cafe and a cool spot just to get away from the bustle. If you're ever passing through and need a bite, be sure to stop by.
