    Southern food and Southern hospitality in downtown Adairsville! This is the "Cheers" of restaurants! The servers make you feel like family that is home for the holidays or a friend invited for dinner. Check out the menus posted and just know that whatever you order is going to be great! The decor is mismatched (just like my granny's kitchen/dining room and it is the best feeling ever. Seriously! If you are going through Adairsville, don't waste your time at what's offered off I-75, Google Pinkard's and enjoy. Warning: not for snobby Yankees, Yuppies, or that kind of folks!

    Grab any seat at the counter!

    Only a couple of miles off the interstate and worth the drive. Local diner. Very friendly staff. Food was delicious. I had the Salsberry steak with gravy, mashed potatoes, and fried squash. Of course I had to add some corn bread as well. Make sure to say hi to Jim and James!

    Menu also have a board of daily specials

    This place is very new and off to a good start! They have a small menu and limited hours but what they are service my up is pretty darn good. With an assortment of hamburger and hot dogs for lunch we went with one of the daily specials. The pulled pork is very good not very Smokey so not sure how it was prepared but it has a light mustard base in the meat which is pretty good. Very flavorful and there regular bbq sauce is good not hot at all. The fries are typical and the Brunswick stew is very good with a little heat. Try it out the owner is super nice and the place is a great quick place to grab lunch

    It seems to be a local stop, which says a lot. This was small and packed but it gives you the hometown feel. The food was amazing. I tried the buffalo chicken soup and grilled cheese (it was on the "todays Special's"). Great place to stop for a quick eat and the atmosphere is appealing!

    We looked forward to going and sitting outside in the courtyard with the pretty outside lights, but…read morethey rented a jumpy house for kids, so families with a lot of kids were there running around, squealing and jumping, so we had to eat inside. That wasn't much better because it's an old house that's been turned into a restaurant, so it had an awful musty smell. I ordered blackened Grouper, but it was not blackened, only grilled, and it tasted like a frozen fillet. My husband ordered prime rib and it was maybe a step above a Waffle House steak. None of it was worth $100 for dinner. It seems like this restaurant is mostly finger foods, comparable to Applebee's or Chili's, that is frozen and microwaved. The server was also very slow, and was absent for long periods of time between our requests and/or checking on us. I do not recommend, and won't be returning.

    Friday night we called and made reservations for 6 at 6:30 and was told no problem. We did arrive a…read morefew minutes early and we're seated on time. That was the end of positive experiences. We were told there was a large group in the restaurant plus they had booked all the outside area for a reunion party and because of this we should expect a long wait for meals. Let's start we asked for lemonade but they had run out. We ordered 2 appetizers which we're good. But the server just dropped a stack of plates on the table and we passed they around mine was dirty, see photos.The server came back but I never got another plate. Ordering.... We asked for a Philly cheese steak but they had run out ok how about their burger but no they were out, ok chicken with baked potato, sorry they were out of potatoes too....... After 20 minutes the food came out but not the whole table at the same time. Four came 2 had to wait. Other items were ok except my chicken livers that on the menu you can have lightly fried or well fried, I asked for lightly got over fried. Drink refills were sparse, we finished and didn't order dessert. For a hometown place that strives to be upscale I wasn't impressed. Our guests here from AZ wanted to have a nice dinner and since we live in Adarisville we chose WTG , we will not be back

    Y'all ever heard of that song by Billy Currington called Good Directions? Well this is that exact…read moresame kind of little small town restaurant atmosphere like in that song. You walk into the front door like you're walking into your family's home on Thanksgiving, such a good feeling of warmth and love and togetherness. Excited yet? I haven't even talked about the food so far! Whether you're looking for a great salad, a huge and tasty sandwich, a hotdog (or DOUBLE HOT DOG) with everything like chili, cheese, onions, slaw...or maybe you're feeling like a BBQ slider? How about a chicken bacon ranch wrap? Maybe some coconut cake made fresh in the kitchen, or carrot cake? Well you found the perfect spot! Everything here is delicious and portioned for big eaters like me and my buddies. Heck even the potato salad was good, and lookee here, I'm a mustard potato salad guy and even though it didn't have mustard I still liked it! There's a great little table area off to the side, and a little antique store in the other. This place is cleaner than my barracks in the Marines, you could eat off the floor. As for the proprietors, there are none better than the ladies at this place. Caron, Cynthia, Cathy and Mama Jean are absolute dolls! The most warm and friendly (and funny) ladies you'll ever have the pleasure of meeting! Easy to find even without good directions! Location is perfect right off 41 south of Adairsville, ya can't miss it there's a dang rocket ship in the parking lot! Y'all get on over there and gitcha some good chow, and don't forget to say hello to Mama Jean and the 3 C Notes (love you ladies!) ...and don't forget to get yer sweet tea!

    My wife, daughter and I went in yesterday. It's a small building off the road so watch for the…read moreCafe flags out front or you may miss it. The first thing we noticed when we walked in is how clean the restaurant is. It has a southern charm type decor. There is a small dining room on one side and small country store on the right with various items to purchase. The restaurant is owned and operated by 3 sisters. You are personally greeted by the sisters when you step up to the counter to place your order. They are clearly proud of their food as they should be. They answer all your questions with great patience and make you feel like part of the family. The menu is primarily sandwhich type items but they do have soup and salads and some BBQ. My wife had chicken salad with vegetable soup. My daughter had a BLT and I had a turkey pesto sandwhich. The portions are much larger than you get at chain restaurants. The ingredients are obviously fresh and homemade. The bread was nicely toasted. Sandwiches came with ridged chips and a pickle. Everyone commented on how wonderful their food was. We ended our meal with an enormous slice of homemade strawberry cake to go as well as homemade cookies. The cookies and cake were made fresh that morning and you could taste the difference. If you grew up in the South with a cake baking grandma, you can probably appreciate just how good the strawberry cake was. If not, get by Mama Jeans and get a fresh piece of cake. I asked about the cake. The sisters told me they make a fresh one and serve it until it's done then make another one rotating through flavors like coconut, mounds, yellow cake with fudge icing, etc. so good. If you are in the area, stop by. You won't be disappointed.
