Bum's Restaurant

I frequent Bum’s a couple of times each week when I am craving home cooked vegetables. Their collards, cabbage and boiled potatoes are awesome. I also enjoy their potato salad, especially when it is freshly made. I don’t get over to Ayden too often in the mornings when breakfast is served, but boy do I enjoy eating breakfast there among locals. The staff offer excellent customer service. Today when I was leaving I spotted some beautiful collards being grown right outside the front entrance.

They have really good whole hog and wood cooked pork barbecue. The fried chicken was moist and flavorful. Great sides, especially the collards and the potato salad. Slaw is good, but a bit wet. Corn sticks are solid, but the potato muffins stole the show. Super friendly staff and great atmosphere.

If comfort food had a front porch and told good stories, it would be Bum's Restaurant. This place doesn’t try to impress you with fancy words—it just feeds you right. Big portions, honest flavors, and food that tastes like it was made by someone who actually cares whether you’re happy when you leave. From hearty breakfasts that kick-start your day to lunches that make you consider a nap afterward (the good kind), Bum’s delivers classic, down-home cooking every single time. The atmosphere is relaxed, the service is friendly, and the plates come out loaded like they know you skipped breakfast… even if you didn’t. We truly appreciate Bum’s Restaurant and enjoy stopping by on a regular basis while we’re out servicing customers across Eastern North Carolina. It’s one of those dependable stops

Bum's used to be a great place to get good country cooking at a reasonable price but nit anymore. I made the mistake of ordering pastry without chicken last week and when rge girl told me a quart was $18 well I almost fell out of my car. That would've been bad enough but the pastry was not completely done and had no juice in the container at which made it not and dry, not good at all. That was a $20 bill just thrown away and to top it off I didn't even get any hushpuppies in the bag with it. They've lost their mind.

I Went there yesterday for the first time. Food was really good. I got the fried chicken and barbecue plate with two sides I really enjoyed it. And really good customer service. I would definitely recommend this place to family and friends. Thank you for a wonderful experience!!
