Good ole southern soul food. You can't go wrong eating here. Fried Pork chop, devil'd eggs, blueberry cobbler, they've perfected it all.

Get there early so you can try the banana pudding and cobblers. They were out by the time we arrived. My Brunswick stew was good. All the food was good not great. The restaurant is a an old time country restaurant. It’s a little tired and dirty on the inside but it kind of fits the vibe. The staff was super friendly and helpful.

Went through the drive through and the lady was super friendly. I got the fried chicken (dark meat) plate it came with 2 thighs and a leg and 2 sides for under $10. All the food was amazing!!

Came two days in a row after starting a new job nearby. I've spent less money here and had more food that warmed my soul than I've had when eating out in months. Plates taste like someone's granny was throwing down in the kitchen. I noticed a bit of change in how it tastes from my first meal (a tad more salt for the second time around in the green beans) but it made it feel that much more like homemade food. I had the baked chicken, green beans, hush puppies, and potato salad the first time. Second plate was fried flounder, green beans, hush puppies, mac and cheese, and potato salad. Everything tasted fresh, the right temperature, seasoned by the ancestors, and was quick to grab. The staff are warm and welcoming. The place gives church shack vibes where you might have a Sunday dinner before a second service, iykyk! Will definitely be my go to when I don't pack a lunch. So grateful to have come across this joint ❤️

So good. So So good! We always go to the one in Butner, but found this Durham location today. I got the fried fish and it was crispy on the outside and creamy inside. Just perfect. We love the Home Plate
