    Simple done well! Such a charming little local spot. Everyone there seemed excited to be there. The…read moreplace is like a museum. The food was great! It's a worth while place to stop in.

    We would have loved having this spot open when we lived in Waynesville. We moved in 2019 but still…read morevisit yearly to visit family and we eat at least one meal here every visit. What the village lacks is actual sit down food spots. (I previously worked at the Hammel House with Mrs. Bowman- we miss them!) The Butter Churn is filling a void and doing a good job at it. The menu is nice, soups- sandwiches & salad options. Our niece really enjoys their potato chips (I think they make them in house, I could be wrong.) The decor is eclectic, it feels like they have small collections and perhaps bought things locally from the antique shops. The back room had a Christmas Santa collection and it was expansive. Coca-Cola, clowns, vintage troll dolls- it all just feels like visiting someone's quirky aunts home. It feels homey and nice. The last time we went we had about twenty mins before closing and were popping in for ice cream. We were told...and reminded multiple times that they wanted to be out of the building at exactly closing time. We said we understood (I mean yes- I also love being off work on time) but the constant reminders felt like they were shoving us out the door when we were just placing ice cream orders and trying to pay. It might have just been a stressful night. We did pop in the next day and I asked about their coffee selection. The response we got was a bit dismissive and they told us "we have black coffee, we don't do any of that fancy stuff. Go down the street to Taylor's." I was going to order the regular coffee but it was off-putting so we did as they recommended and left. I know I don't *look* like a local- for obvious reasons. I don't want to believe this is why we received weird service compared to other patrons. Regardless, we have enjoyed the actual food and ice cream here. Our family likes it and visits weekly- I will just trust them that they get good consistent service every time.

    I'm going to preface that we may have gone at a weird time since it was 4:30 and not everyone eats…read morethat early. My hope is that on Friday and Saturdays the place is hopping. This was my first time dining in. First impression was that it was very bare bones. There's nothing on the tables or walls. The only sounds are other guests and a tv displaying a sports channel. You seat yourself. Our server was fine. She came shortly after we sat down. But she seemed a little low on energy. Maybe it's been a long week for her. Either their AC is broken or they just don't have one. And all the fans are going in the wrong direction for summer weather. My husband was sweating through our meal and it made it hard for us to stay. The salsa is fresh and flavorful. I got the phoenix nachos and they were very good. My husband got the Baja fish tacos and said they were awesome. The guacamole could use a little more something. Maybe even a sprinkling of salt or garlic. I understand the business might be having a hard time keeping busy but the price of two meals and a large guac was over $50 after tip. So a little pricey. But I'm always happy to support small, local businesses. The food is good. The atmosphere could use a little help especially with the high temps outside.

    The place was clean and service was friendly. Sat right at a bay window and watched the people walk…read moreby. It seemed to take an exceptionally long time for our order to arrive at table. The tacos, lacked any taste at all and the Diet Coke had a funny taste. The waitress didn't check on us and we received no silverware. At the present time I've only eaten half the meal and I'm waiting on a check so I can leave. I doubt I'd come back.
