Small buffet but excellent! You don't need a lot of choices because everything served is delicious. Servers were attentive & friendly. Atmosphere is country city with a really interesting local vibe

Everything I’ve had here is always amazing. Great people, great atmosphere. Worried about your kids being wild? Absolutely not. They will make you all feel welcome!

Seen this little restaurant on TikTok and decided to make the hour drive to try it out. It did NOT disappoint!! The food was amazing, great little family atmosphere and the staff were all extremely nice! Will definitely make another trip!

First time eating here tonight and I must say it was a success! My 5 year old Loved his Chicken, 15 year old tore his Chicken Philly sandwich up and my hubby ate every bite!! I haven’t eaten a steak this good since my daddy grilled it when I was little. Thank y’all so much! Will definitely be back. ❤️

Maw Maw’s Schoolhouse was such a fun atmosphere, we immediately thought it was charming and had the kind of friendly & welcoming staff you’d expect at a family owned southern restaurant! Our waitress, Terrie, had manners that MawMaw herself would be proud of..she even made sure to save us the last 2 German chocolate deserts! The food was absolutely amazing. Not just “good for a small town restaurant”..I mean good no matter if you were sitting in a fine dining atmosphere. Meat quality, portion size, fresh ingredients, and SEASONING 🙌🏻 our big group got a little of it all, from the Gin Trash, pork chops (best seasoned & most tender I’ve had), bayou ribeye, BBQ shrimp..10/10 on every dish we had!
