    the neon sign on the side of the building
    Gregory C.

    The sign on the front door said "Help Wanted: Dishwasher". I ordered the two eggs (Sunnyside up) with the country ham with biscuits and gravy, coffee and water. I also wanted a side order of grits, but they had run out (it was 10:45am on a Friday). Coffee was good. My eggs, country ham and biscuits and gravy were excellent. Highly recommend. My only complaint was that everything was served in Styrofoam cups and plates. Even the utensils were plastic. So if you need a job and live in the Sparta, North Carolina area, they do need a dishwasher......

    I was very hungry so I got my ex-husband Bartholomew to get me some food. I requested a burger from Terry's Cafe & Catering and they always have very delicious burgers and the sweet tea is to DIE for, but this time my tea was unsweetened and my burger was undercooked and DISGUSTING!!!!! NEVER AGAIN WILL I EAT THIS FOOD

    I've been duped. Snookered. Bamboozled. Hoodwinked. Wooed and enticed by a five star rating, I was so excited to try Terry's. All 5 stars (and a few 4s) from all reviewers! This place must be awesome! My server, who was very sweet and accommodating, enthusiastically touted all the food options to the point that I was salivating. I wanted to try EVERYTHING! I don't know what happened, but my experience did not even come close to what it was hyped up to be. Maybe things were just off today. But I don't think so. The feature burger was nice and big, that is true, but the beef was sorely lacking in flavor and did not perform well on the Texas toast. The hot dog had a good flavor, but was over cooked (it was shriveled and a little hard on the outside). The chili was way too mild and the slaw was way too wet-- the bun quickly became soggy. The fries were just average. The sweet tea was excellent. To broaden the scope of my review, I sampled the chicken salad and found the chicken to be tough and lumpy and the flavor bland. Quaint but a bit dark inside, Terry's is stocked mostly with locals. And for me, it didn't live up to its laudable billing.

    This is the quintessential local cafe. Friendly when you enter and remains that way. Good food, served super fast, very reasonable in price and accommodating to simple requests. This is another little gem to support.

    Chicken salad sandwich and corn nuggets (outstanding)..forgive this picture, it was not taken by me!

    So my preceptor took me to this hidden gem right outside the hospital for lunch. This is a small establishment with GREAT prices and food! It's no surprise this place is jam packed at lunch. So when you think 'southern diner', you'd think the food would be dripping with grease. NOT here! I got the chicken salad sandwich and corn nuggets for $5! I HIGHLY recommend the corn nuggets..they are like hush puppies stuffed with corn chowder! So sorry I didn't take a good picture, I forgot my phone, but my preceptor snapped a photo of the whole dish for me. I'll definitely be coming back here before I head back east and let you know how the rest of their menu compares. Parking: private lot, right off the highway They take credit cards! Great, fast, friendly service!

    I ordered one of the specials of the night, beef tips. They were marinated, and they were tender and had a good flavor. Also got a baked potato and homemade slaw, with texas toast. Very good meal for $7.99. My son got grilled chicken with bbq sauce, bacon and cheese with fries and a salad ($7.99). I tried the chicken and it was good. My daughter got the homemade spaghetti ($6.50), with a salad and texas toast. Spaghetti sauce was good, tasted like something you would make at home. Their house salad dressing was a creamy Italian, and it was delicious. Server was friendly, and very helpful on my first visit. Took a homemade chicken salad sandwich, with macaroni salad to my wife, and she said it was very good.

The kind of place you might see as you passed through these small towns in the 60's. It has the old charm with quite friendly people. It is a place of a long gone era that has survived into modern times by being what they do best. A local favorite for people looking for a simple place to eat tasty food.

I was very pleasantly informed that I should've looked on Facebook, then I would've known the restaurant was closing early. That's not something I do when deciding on where I want to dine, but, lesson learned We ordered the "starter sampler" for an appetizer, which consisted of collard green dip with pita chips, fried green tomatoes, and deviled eggs with bacon jam! It was delicious!!!! For our entrees, we ordered the Collard Green Grilled Cheese, with seasoned fries, and the Southern Bowl. We also ordered Sweet Tea, and Signature Lemonade, both were good! But no free refills on the lemonade....The Collard Green Grilled Cheese was phenomenal, well seasoned greens, with smoked Gouda cheese on perfectly grilled buttered Texas Toast!!!! WOW!!!! The fries were hot and not overly seasoned!! The Southern Bowl was awesome, the grits were cheesy and creamy, topped with collard greens, and 2 perfectly seasoned fried flounder fillets! If I HAD to complain about something, it would be that there was just a tad too much "pot liquor" in my bowl and nothing to sop it up with‍ Fleming Street Bakery & Southern Cuisine is a great place to enjoy great food.

The food did not come out all together. So everyone ate at different times. Furthermore, the cold was lukewarm when it came out. Only 3 people out of a party of 8 received hot food.

On the plus side, parking is free and convenient (near the movie theater away from downtown Blacksburg) and service was friendly. Although the interior has a casual vibe, the prices seemed high for the quality of food. The dishes yielded mixed reviews. For example, my son loved the mac-n-cheese but did not particularly enjoy his Ribbe sandwich (which was a tough pork chop). The fried chicken and sides (collared greens) were both delicious, but our appetizer dish of hush puppies was strange. It consisted of large fried cornmeal balls that were difficult to break (but the honey butter was nice). The Cobb salad was OK. I'm not sure if we will return to the Hatch again - but if we do, I will definitely order the fried chicken and sides.
