KRANKIES REVIEWS

Amazing breakfast spot if you want good chicken or biscuits. We tried a few chicken biscuits (The Hangover Helper, Dirt South, and the Bluebird) and had the wedges as well. The green sauce for the wedges was delicious. No fountain sodas but they have coffee options and drinks in the can or bottle. The fruit cup was a good value for the kiddos.

I normally just get coffee when I go to Krankies’s. Today I got a dirty south chicken biscuit with pimento cheese, and Texas Pete hot sauce. It was tremendous. A much larger portion than I thought. It was so thick you could barely get your mouth around it. And of course it was absolutely delicious.

We drove an hour just to try them out and we were not disappointed! Friendly staff, amazing food, great prices and a cool atmosphere to just eat, drink, and chill. I highly recommend the bluebird but any of their biscuits are amazing!

MIDTOWN CAFE & DESSERTERY REVIEWS

Highly recommend! I went with my family for brunch and had a wonderful experience. Nicole went above and beyond to get us seated, after I missed the text that our booth was ready. It was super crowded, but she made it happen. Ellen at the front was also extremely pleasant. Our waitress Wendy was perfect. Friendly, funny, and on task. The service and food was perfect all around

Great restaurant to stop at while traveling. My husband and I have been here a few times and the service is good and the food doesn’t disappoint. We split the Kickin Cajun Mac and cheese. I got the Cesar salad with blackened chicken and my husband got the Berry Feta salad with grilled salmon. The desserts are great too and they do have gluten free options.d

Delicious! Great and fast service. We had the pound cake French toast, the banana French toast and the shrimp and grits. Everything was delicious. Would go back!

WEST END CAFE REVIEWS

I had the bacon cheeseburger and hubby had the fried shrimp po’ boy. Both were delicious. Buns on both were toasted. Burger was huge and cooked like I like it. Great and attentive service. Will be back! Suggest going early. It was packed with a line by 6 on a Monday!

This place is excellent. We came for a mid-afternoon meal and it was quiet. The food and menu choices are awesome. The service is also excellent and very friendly. My wife and I will be making this a new standard for dining anytime.

We eat here regularly! Everything is wonderful! The staff are great and very engaging! I got the shrimp Po Boy this time. The shrimp were fried to perfection. The pasta and potato salad was on point.
