classic small town bakery. Not a bunch of over the top fancy frills, just good flavor. Not to say they can't do eloquent decorations, it's just they don't put 4lbs of frosting on everything to make it look nice yet taste like pure frosting. I love the doughnut holes. We had a large half white, half black sheet cake from here done for our wedding, and just a small fancy one to cut. It turned out great and was way better for the money.

While visiting a friend in Dunn, she invited me to go to "her" coffee shop. We enjoyed curry chicken salad with a cheddar cheese scone with a "special" coffee. There are a variety of gift shop items, paintings, antique pottery, etc. for sale. They have a wide variety of pastries, imported teas and wines. I purchased a linen tea towel as a gift for someone. When the owner realized it was a gift, he bagged it up nicely. Pleasant, comfortable, tasty food and good coffee, good people.

I was really torn between giving them five stars or four. I gave them 4, because I had to wait a good bit, when I could see empty tables inside. On top of that, one of the waitresses came out, looked at me and said,is he waiting on a table, she then seated me. The twice baked potato was a little dry, but everything else was perfect. My waitress was Ashley and she did an excellent job. Plenty of parking, very clean and very busy upscale restaurant. It is a bit on the expensive side, but other than what I mentioned above I was very pleased. Will eat here again.

We stopped into this adorable cafe for lunch the other day. Their drink selection is impressive, boasting smoothies, hot drinks, frappe, and "any kind of drink you want us to make!" Our group enjoyed 3 frappes (mocha, java chip and devil's food cake) and all were FABULOUS.
For lunch, one teen had a cheese flatbread which she ate every last crumb of, and the other enjoyed an "awesome" roast beef sandwich on a croissant. She said it was the best roast beef she ever had. I had the grilled chicken salad and it was beautifully presented as well as a generous serving size. The chicken was a little bland though and their lettuce selection a little bitter (but that could be a seasonal issue.) I also tried the ranch and thousand island dressings, but did not care for either. Next time, I will try one of the hot plate meals instead (they offer burgers, steak, grilled chicken, etc.)
The prices here were reasonable. We had the 3 meals with the specialty drinks for around $30. There is a nice selection of books, artwork and other goods to peruse while there. The service was excellent. We will definitely visit again.

The food order was wrong so when the sides finally arrived the main meal had already been eaten but I still left 20% of the pretax amount as tip. Monica proceeded to give herself a 100% tip instead; have photos of the credit card receipt...MoreHi. Thank you for your review. Please email us as soon as possible at [email protected] so I can have the Regional Director reach out to you. We assure that we will address immediately. We appreciate your time. Christine

We were staying at the Quality Inn where the restaurant is located (don't stay there!) and saw the good reviews and decided to give it a try. Hubby had a steak that he said was very good. I didn't want a whole lot of food so I ordered an ala cart burrito - it was HUGE! And it was very good! If we stay in Dunn again I would definitely go back!

First time for DW and I at a Cracker Barrel. We found service to be quick and professional, and the food to be good. This is not a fancy place, and the food is not fancy, but it is good and the portions are perfect.

Reviewed By ElCid83 - Elizabethtown, KY
I was in the area on business and looking for a seafood meal. Being originally from NC, I was looking for the typical fried seafood, hushpuppies, slaw, etc. based on reviews I tried Jim's. The server was extremely courteous and very helpful in helping me chose what I wanted. I got a combo with shrimp, flounder and scallops. It was all delicious and very reasonably priced. An excellent meal.

Simple menu. Hometown flavor. Local owners and customers. Very friendly atmosphere. This is the place for a quick home cooked meal. No frills. Styrofoam plates and plastic forks. Sweet tea from real tea. Across the street from the Police dept. downtown Dunn. You would not find tourists there. Too bad,...They don't know what they are missing.
