Skillet corn bread appetizer
Lori C.

Sweet Old Bills a staple spot that's been on our list to try for quite a while. We had a rare Friday evening off so ventured over there. First, we were greeted with very friendly service from the host stand to our server. We ordered our drinks and entrees after taking probably too long to look at the menu. The restaurant was getting busy. We shared the skillet cornbread and I ordered the smoked meatloaf. Something unique to me and it sounded delicious. It was super tender and I could definitely taste the smoky flavor. It was a generous portion and I ended up taking some home. The skillet cornbread was hot and fresh although not quite as sweet as I like.

Our waitress was one of a kind and super helpful! With a dairy allergy she was sure to check all of the ingredients and breads for me to make sure my order was okay with my allergen. This was SO greatly appreciated. My husband and I both ordered a burger. His was the basic plain burger, mine had chili and sale! I greatly enjoyed mine and the sweet potato fries. However, my husband was kind of disappointed that he couldn't order his burger to be cooked medium. Per the waitress they are all cooked well done, which is exactly what we received. I also would have liked it a little less done. Per the menu burgers are made to order, but per the staff this was not the case, which was slightly disappointing. Burgers with one side were about $13-15 each, which seems about average. However you could pay an additional $4 to double the meat on the burger!

Banana Pudding

My wife and I had a delicious lunch date there over the past weekend. The restaurant is very cozy and clean. The service was ok although they were a little slower than we would have liked in checking on things. We decided to split a few items to get a try of different foods. Their brisket nachos were phenomenal. The mixture of flavors was perfect and there was plenty of them to share. This could have been shared by 3-4 people without a problem. The pulled pork was flavorful on its own and even better with its sauce. The Mac and cheese was good but fairly standard. The sweet potato fries were crisp and had good flavor. The banana pudding for dessert was delicious and pretty generous portion.

I ordered the small smoked chicken, black eye peas & cheese grits. The chicken was seasoned good but was a bit DRY!! The black eye pea were good & did not taste like they were out of a can, the cheese grits were great too. The service was excellent. The restaurant had a cool vibe. Our service was good too.

Went here on a Sunday after church and enjoyed a good meal with friends. Definitely can see why it's a local favorite. My pulled pork plate was great and loved the tomato pie and Mac and cheese! It was all delicious & served nice and steamy. My pulled pork was a little more fatty than I prefer and pulled lots of big pieces of fat out. I tried my kids chicken tenders and they were flavorful and tender. We also all enjoyed some mimosas with brunch and it was perfectly mixed with OJ and champagne. Feel is definitely bar scene but good for a midday lunch with the kids! Service was good. Ambiance is nothing fancy but that's not what we were looking for. Look forward to more Sunday brunches here!

Best nachos PERIOD
Dennis S.

Only negative is really the price on some of their items but they follow suit with other BBQ joints. And the service tends to be hit or miss. Now, the biggest pull with this place and, I kid you not, their nachos is the best. I'd put it up against anything in the state! The most important thing is they don't stack it up (which is the dumbest thing), they lay it out wide and low so more toppings and cheese hit the chips. The flavors, the sauces, the combination of everything leads you to a mouthgasm! Anything with pork belly here is amazing. Their apps are great as well. Overall this place is a great spot and offers unique items to appease anyone. PRO-TIP: Add pork belly and brisket to your nachos. It's a full meal in itself and that comes from me

Service: Very friendly and knowledgeable. When I asked the waiter how the brisket was today he said it was coming out very juicy which is a good sign. I like that he was able to quickly provide a confident answer. The brisket was on point! Those were the best brisket nachos! (thanks Erik!). The fresh jalapeños were thick and spicy how I like them. The crème was a perfect balance. The chips were not soggy and delicious. The sweet potato fries were nice and crunch almost caramelized. The pork was good but better with the house BBQ. Yummy!! The Mac and cheese had a great creamy cheese texture which is great for little kids too. The ambience was also very cool. The floor still had the remnants of a garage. There was a nice breeze sitting at the concrete table top. While reviews say it's hit or miss, our visit was a definite hit!

Brisket, ribs, sweet potatoes and corn pudding
Melissa D.

Ordered the big boy combo with ribs and sliced brisket, corn pudding and sweet potatoes. Ribs were so overcooked I couldn't cut them apart. Brisket was a single slab sliced the wrong way, making it impossible to cut, and it was dry and overcooked. The sides were great. I won't be back.

Food: 4 I ordered an original pulled pork sandwich for my meal. I thought it would come with BBQ sauce on it. The waitress did bring me two types of BBQ sauce. I had a side of fries that were a little too soft for my liking. For dessert, I ordered the Bundt cake, which is what raises my original score of a 3 to a 4. So soft and the taste was chef's kiss. Service: 4 stars I didn't get my servers name but she was very attentive, but checked in just a little too often for me. I had asked about one of the wine selections, but she couldn't answer the question as she told me she was only 18. Before ordering the wine, I had ordered a lemon drop martini. While the martini was half full, I decided I also wanted to take advantage of the 1/2 price wine deal. My server put the order in, then kindly told me she couldn't bring the wine unless the martini was returned or finished. Unsure if this is a NC thing or just a restaurant rule, but I appreciated the precautions the restaurant was taking with one person having multiple drinks Ambiance: 4 stars cute somewhat "western" feel. Has a nice open community vibe especially at the bar area, which I didn't sit at but will try another time

What a nice way to end 2024. While waiting for an order elsewhere to pick up, I stopped by SoB's for lunch. The service was stunning, back to the service I was use to. I am glad I gave Bill's a second chance after the non-service over the summer. The food was outstanding. The service was welcoming with frequent follow-up's. I look forward to going again. Please keep up the good work.

Brisket hash with scrambled eggs
Mike V.

Enjoyed a delicious brunch here on Sunday. They've got a seemingly tasty menu, though I can only speak on the brisket hash. When we arrived we were greeted by the hostess and seated quickly. The menu had several great sounding options, but the brisket hash called to me. I opted for my eggs scrambled rather than sunny side up. The order came out quickly in a heaping portion. I was only able to eat about half the order, and took the rest for a some amazing left overs the next morning: Service was friendly and quick with refills and attentive to our needs. Food was an amazing. Fun spot, I'll be back!

Vidalia Onion Dip
Mary R.

The food was absolutely fantastic! The waitress was very attentive and paid attention to our drinks and refills and anything we needed. The restaurant was way larger than it looks from the outside with plenty of room between tables and high backs to the booths to add privacy to your lunch date Will definitely be visiting again soon!

Spicy smoked wings
Yolanda T.

We made an impromptu visit to Sweet Old Bills on Monday Sep 9 for appetizers and drinks. Surprisingly it was a little busy for a Monday. It was our first time visiting and after reviewing the menu in advance it was great for what we were looking to eat. It was a little tricky finding the host stand because they have two entrances, the one facing Main Street and a side entrance from the parking lot. But it was obvious we were a bit turned around but it all worked out, btw..the host stand is near the parking lot entrance on the side. We ordered appetizers for the table which were shareable portions and adult drinks. We ordered the brisket loaded nachos, spicy smoke wings and the trio dip sampler. Everything was tasty and fine for a last minute get together for good food that wasn't too heavy. The place felt dark and it was dimly lit. It's definitely more of a place to hangout after work for drinks.

You'll also find a really neat classic style pool table that has been freshly re-felted for those that like a distraction while they imbibe. There's also plenty of merch, both branded for Fox & Rocks, or just because they're interesting products. Grab your favorite drink on the rocks and wander around perusing the selection. They have a growing amount of bourbons and whiskey available, as well as several beers on tap from NC breweries like Sycamore and Red Oak, and of course some bottled or canned selections as well. Finally, I just have to point out some creative things. The Carolina Core soccer club mascot is the fox, and that is part of the reason for naming the bar this way. Also, you will find some of the most hilarious fox related signs in the bathroom. Enjoy the butt napkins! I think I'm gonna like it here, great spot for a night out!

Parking was sufficent in front of the entrance but not sure we would be that successful on a High Point Rockers game night. With 20 rotating taps, there's something for every taste: craft beer, wine by the glass and by the bottle, new specialty pours to try and mocktails, making it a go-to destination for locals and visitors alike. Seasonal cocktails were flowing the nights we visited--peppermint espresso martinis, spiced nightcaps, and cranberry-ginger mules kept the holiday spirit high during the cold night. Then karaoke took over, with the whole room singing along to crowd favorites like "Don't Stop Believin'," "Sweet Caroline," that Hawaiian Christmas song haha plus there was a dramatic, everyone-at-the-bar version of "All I Want for Christmas Is You." It's the kind of cozy-but-lively night where Christmas spirit meets late-night funand no one wanted the music to end. The super peppy bartenders kept the atmosphere energetic and welcoming, even on that rainy night. This place is perfect for meeting friends, girls night out, first dates or lingering after a great meal. Weekly events like trivia nights, karaoke, and live music keep the vibe lively and fun, ensuring there's always something happening. The whole building is open so if you need a quite, romantic spot away from the others to talk, maybe lay out a card game or just to escape that "song you hate on karoke", patrons can sit at other, comfy tables throughout the establishment (and take your drinks). Whether you're there for the drinks, the entertainment, or the community feel, Bevelry delivers a consistently great experience. There's even an outdoor bar area (named Cahoots) that opens during warm weather- so we might see you there in the summer after a game!
