The Depot Diner

I visited The Depot Diner twice… the first time on February 8th and second time April 1st. I wanted to give them a second chance because my first encounter was HORRIBLE: the chef had quit, the night shift was cooking breakfast, and it took 45 minutes to get our food. When we finally received our food it was cold, the grits were smothered in too much pepper and butter, the toast was burnt, and the pork chop was overly seasoned and too tough to eat. The service was great though! The manager was so apologetic and kind, which is the only reason I didn’t write that initial review and chose to return at a later date. This encounter on April 1st was MUCH BETTER - 1000x better. The food was amazing: crisp pancakes, pork chop seasoned and cooked to perfection, fluffy eggs, and a nice moist biscui

This is an original small train depot that the town has kept in its original spot by the town's tracks. Train decor, very good meals. Have activity nights & family oriented. I like their custom order burgers & catfish basket.

Kathryn was a fabulous bartender and server. She recommended the daily special which was smothered okra, shrimp and sausage over rice. It was delicious! Another suggestion was choochoo bread which was tasty and cooked to perfection! We highly recommend this restaurant and ask for Kathryn!

A gem of a place where you step back in time, belly up to the bar or sit wherever, greeted by local southern hospitality. I ordered the pancakes. Superior flavor and texture. Grabbing my spouse and headed back here for lunch!! Come out and see for yourself. They have a pay it forward so come for a free meal if you are struggling. Love the community of kind folks that help others.

Huge disappointment in my visit because I thought the aesthetics were super cute and I think the most out of my experience was browsing the general store inside and seeing items made by locals. We came for lunch with two tables already sitting and had received their food. We played some of the table games they provide to pass the time after we ordered so we didn't notice how long food took. But we did notice the couple behind us complaining about how the eggs were cold. Our appetizer was the boudin egg rolls, semi disappointed they were out of the pepper jelly to go with it but it wasnt a major blow. The kicker was that the eggrolls were dripping in grease yet still a bit soft on the outside. Every bite made me feel sick, dripped grease, and the only way I could finish was to smother it
