No nonsense place to eat. If you like Southern cooking, you’ll like Home Plate. Plates won’t break the bank and will fill you up. They make your plate behind the counter or you can grab your food through the drive through as well. I’ve had the fried chicken, mac and cheese, mashed potatoes and gravy, banana pudding, and the sweet tea/lemonade. I’ve been here twice and surprised I didn’t eat here more often when I lived in the area. This place is a go to stop if I visit out that way.

I tell you what....I just ate some of the best blueberry cobbler this side of heaven. We come here often and have never had a bad experience, but that cobbler by itself warrants a review today...I'd almost say its better than grandma's but I can't be that disloyal😂😂 When I say ita good. It is good!

Home Plate brought back nostalgic memories from growing up in rural NC that I haven't tasted in so long! The fried chicken was delicious and crispy, everything was well seasoned and the prices were shocking (in a good way)! My husband and I both got plates full of quality food and fountain drinks for under $25! No frills, but none needed. Food with love that reminds me of home. Definitely a regular spot for us from now on!

Came here for the first time with my kids. The food was pretty good overall, especially for the price. The kids really like the food. We ordered pork chop, fried chicken, barbecue chicken, mac n cheese, mashed potatoes and rice. Everything was good. The issue i had was the service. The two ladies were not friendly. I am not sure if they were just having a bad day or what. The first lady asked my oldest if she would like a roll or hushpuppies. My daughter said roll but the lady ignored her. So my daughter repeated herself but the lady moved on to the next customer. The other lady was rude when she were speaking to my other daughter asking her what sides she would like. When my daughter said she only wanted one side the lady said you get 2 sides. But her tone of voice was rude. If I was to come back, i would go through the drive thru.

This was a great local brunch spot with ample seating and an extensive menu with a plethora of options available! The cocktail and drink menu was lengthy and everyone was very pleased with their drink choices! The omelets and breakfast sandwiches were delicious with large, plentiful servings and plenty of options for a la carte sides. The servers were kind and food arrived in decent timing.
