Walked in and was happily greeted by Mrs. Joy herself! This establishment checks every box on my 5 star list. Husband and wife owned and operated, very friendly, clean and charming environment, and of course, delicious food. I got a square donut! It was hearty, fluffy and had plenty of glaze. As always I say please support local! Mrs. Joy's is a gem of the community and it is very clear that they know what they are doing! I would happily go back!

Warm, welcoming, and as sweet as the authentic southern fried apple pies she makes, we couldn't help but stop as chat for a long while with her. We are in the area visiting family and this shop JUST opened this past week, lucky for us! The cakes seem to be mostly order ahead, so we didn't get to try those, but there were lots of goodies like cookies, cupcakes, chocolate roll slices, cream puffs, mini pies, dessert breads, and fried hand pies available to purchase for $1-1.50 apiece. Very reasonable prices, everything clearly freshly baked, and something I really liked was that her little pre-packaged cookie bags and hand pies had ingredients listed on them, so if you have allergy problems it's all very clearly labeled. The interior of the shop looks meticulously renovated; its bright, very clean, and she offers you free coffee at a little coffee nook in the shop, which is such a sweet touch. The exterior is VERY unassuming in a lot with a chain link fence kind of tucked off the street in a little whitewashed brick building. Don't be thrown off by the exterior or the locale - the hand-lettered vintage style sign with a cupcake on it will point the way to a wonderful ten minute stop for dessert.

Still have two more to try out of the 4. Lots of parking also and easy to find.

I'm a Cinnabon and Ann Sathers (Chicago) fan, and have tried a bunch of local bakeries claiming to have good cinnamon buns. I can honestly say this is the ONLY local place where their cinnamon rolls can rival the big dogs. They are so GOOD! & the name is so fun. I tried Dem "Merica" Bunz & Dem Blue Bunz Simply because I love Apple & Blueberry. Love at first BITE! Even my 2 year old, who was with me, kept asking for more. I love how the "Bunz" aren't huge and doughy like other places and you get a good amount of icing and topping. The toppings also didn't taste artificial, as they make their topping themselves. I wanted to try them all but couldn't make up my mind lol. Definitely going back to try the rest of them, and to converse with the friendly employees and owner. I can't believe she has 7 children!!! My only wish is they were open more often because it's 6pm on a Sunday & I want DEM BUNZ! MUST TRY! Better than the other local cinnamon rolls!!!!!!!

Between two people, we ordered drinks and Billy's seafood platter to share, which consisted of shrimp that you can choose the style of, fried cod and catfish, with hush puppies and cole slaw. We got the bang bang shrimp and they were on point. They were definitely our favorite thing on this platter with the size, texture, and flavor all hitting the mark. The two sides hush puppies and cole slaws were also good. The two fried fish was a little underwhelming, with the cod being a little under-seasoned and dry. The catfish was seasoned well and soft but had that sort of slightly fishy flavor to it. I liked having multiple sauces both on the platter and the table (there were a bunch of different bbq sauces, which I'm sure go better with their meat offerings) - the butter and the zing of the North Carolina hot sauce were our top two sauces of the meal. Definitely enough food for two people but I wish there was a bit more on there than just the cole slaw to suppress the greasiness of the fried fish. Service was great and they have a good sized parking lot as well. Can't say anything about their bbq since we had the fish platter but as soon as you get to the parking lot, you can smell the fire going!
