For more than 65 years Denny's has been bringing people together over great food. It's the place where people can relax and be themselves; where they can enjoy classic American comfort food and everyday value. 24 hours a day. 365 days a year. Here, you ca

Stopped in here this morning for breakfast with the family. 5 of us. After being seated we waited for a waiter/waitress to come to our table to acknowledge us. After more than 15 minutes of sitting there waiting, we got up and walked out. Absolute worst customer service ever!! It's not even like they were busy. Just lazy and too busy carrying on with each other. I recommend you go somewhere else. We ended up going to the Waffle House right up the road from here and they promptly greeted us and took our order. I don't know how that Denny's is in business with employees like that.

We went to Andy's on our way to Myrtke Beach. We went based on reviews from Trip Advisor on some of their other locations. We were very disappointed. The burgers were small. So small that we were still hungry when we left. But we didn't dare order more food because what we ordered took so long the first time. Our waitress was a nice enough high school aged girl, but I think this was her first night on the job. She took our drink order and didn't come back for 10 minutes! I really wanted to like this place too. Bummer.

This is like the other subways, the quantities are premeasured but they do give you lots of condiments (lettuce, peppers, onions, spinash, tomatoes, olives, etc) So you can actually make a salad with your sub. Sometimes, they are slow due to the help is working at the other restaurant adjacent to them.

We usually stop by this Travel Center on our travels to & from FL. We always have a healthy sub at this Subways. The specials are priced right. This time we tried the 12" Turkey & Ham on a Honey Oat roll ($7). It was very good. We were there on a Sunday at 12:30PM and not too crowded. The service was quick and the place was very clean! we'll be back on our next trip.Thank you!

Iron Skillet Restaurant

Full Serve Restaurant

Reviewed By Beefseeker

One of the worst versions of the iron skillet we’ve ever tried. We had read some surprisingly great reviews before stopping by, but were severely mislead. This is one of those places that’ll remind you that finding good food along the interstate is a thing of the past. Salad bar was very limited, and the buffet didn’t look good at all. So, we went with the chicken parm, and that was a big mistake. Chicken wasn’t cooked correctly, and the sauce covering just made it rubbery. The pasta on the salad bar wasn’t consistent either. It Had chewy pieces mixed with some that were way past done. The salad bar’s veggies were warm as well. Ranch Dressing was as thin as water. If we could rate this place a zero, we would. But the service was really good. Our waitress made several stops to fill drinks, etc... So we left her a good tip. It’s not her fault the food is bad. I’m not sure what has happened to the iron skillets the past few years, but they’re no longer worth trying. I’m sure it has something to do with their merger with the TA travel plazas: as we all know, they had the worst food on the highways....If your looking for a good meal, keep on trucking...Beefseeker, I apologize for your last visit with us. We take pride in providing the best food and service for the proffesional driver and it looks like we failed on your last visit. I would like to speak wih further about your visit please contact me at [email protected] with a good time to speak.

Nik's Pizza & Restaurant

Reviewed By rsd16

Great quick stop for food. Came by around 8pm and there were only 2 other tables filled. Staff was very friendly and food was great. The atmosphere was dated, but still kinda charming for what it was. The pizza buffet looked a little stale by the time we rolled in, but the fresh pizza and mozzarella sticks were cooked very well and yummy. Good stop.

Meal selections are made in a cafeteria-style line. They have some excellent southern dishes that I really cannot get back home in Rhode Island, so it was a big treat eating there. The place was clean, homey, and comfortable but not at all fancy and elaborate.My only disappointment is that they are not open as often as I would have preferred.
