Olde Carolina Eatery

Me & my team stopped in after weigh ins because we heard this is the spot for good ol country style home food ! It did not disappoint! Homemade French style toast ! Thick Bologna! Grits where amazing ! & the dessert! Yes dessert for breakfast the apple pie didn’t even stand a chance for a photo !

Amazing service! I ordered a cheeseburger, and not only was it made quite quickly, but it was perfectly grilled and tasted pretty good. I also got a side of strawberries, which was an absolutely huge portion for how cheap and fresh tasting they were. I'd guess that many strawberries at a grocery store would be around $2-4? The cashier was a very polite and attentive gal, and definitely deserves a tip if you have the spare cash to give when you go. Tldr: Overall a 9/10, with a good quality dining experience for an affordable price. Just make sure you're ready for some walking, as it'll be hard to find an open parking space.

Nice local place, I'd rather fork over my money here than one of the chains around here. Food was good and tasted fresh. The staff were all very friendly. Will return.

Had a delightful stop here between the beach and the Raleigh area. Easy parking. The owner and staff were warm and welcoming! Food was simple and comforting, delicious. But the desserts alone were worth the stop! The blueberry pie was delicious!

A staple eatery in Burgaw. Breakfast all day, mostly sandwiches. Fast and served hot. They have a drink station where you fill your drinks. Desserts are home made and are wonderful. They can get busy at lunch time.

Stopped by today on way home from beach. Wife got club sandwich, couldn't eat it all. I finished it. I got hot dogs not so good. I think the chill got burned. Over all good place.

Only tea comes with a meal, which i cant drink. Only had baked beans and slaw as side. Had to pay double for chips bc I don't like baked beans. Not friendly unless you are a regular and was over 20 dollars for what is pictured. On the bright side my Mom liked the hot dogs which is the most important.

Friendliest service ever. They are the most thoughtful and caring people. Do yourself a favor and go check them out. They make the most amazing cakes. You should definitely treat yourself to one. They will make you anything you want. Frances and Heather are seriously amazing.

Let me start by saying this is a no frills spot. But because it's local to the Burgaw area and run very efficiently, we knew we had to try it! I got 2 eggs over medium, bacon and wheat toast. The food was good, but that's ok! What I didn't like, I had to butter my own toast and there was no rye toast offered, nor was there any type of potatoes or hot tea. Additionally, we ate on styrofoam plates and plastic utensils. I understand why this is how they operate, but as someone that does not like using plastic unless absolutely necessary, it was a small turn off. The smiling faces that ran the restaurant were welcoming and very accommodating. I was happy to support local, but that was the only appeal to me.

Stopped for breakfast before the blueberry festival. I ordered a sausage , egg and cheese sandwich on wheat. No option for bagel, rye sourdough, biscuit...disappointing for such a limited breakfast menu. It came out with bread not toasted and Cheese was cold. Certainly not worth the $7.50

What a great FAMILY run restaurant!! The food is great never had a bad meal or had to return to cook!! There's a plate lunch feature, soup, n sandwich's that change each day!! Locals from town always n there, all speaking to everyone by ist names!! Ms Frances homemade desserts cannot be beat plus she does Catering for events n pies to go!! Breakfast is great I'm a Country ham, grits w Red Eye Gravy, egg over light, & wheat toast (got to have something healthy)! My fav lunch is BLT w Cheese on Wheat toast!! I can never eat the helping of food which makes Michener pup at home very Happy boy!‍

Great atmosphere, quiet country small town eatery. Nice quaint restaurant in downtown Burgaw. Great staff, super friendly and accommodating for our large group. The Club sandwich and the Mushroom & Swiss burger tasted great! Just the right amount of food.

Driving to Jacksonville North Carolina we stopped here on the basis of great Yelp reviews and, as is usually the case, my fellow Yelpers didn't disappoint. Mom was wanting a burger and the burger was highlighted in the reviews so it was a great fit. This is a small mom and pop place in downtown Burgaw run by two women. The gal on the counter was sweet and accommodating. Business hours on the Yelp site said they closed at 3:00 but posted hours said they closed at 2:00. We arrived at 1:50 but she welcomed us warmly and assured us we were fine. Mom and daughter both had cheeseburgers which they declared "perfect". The burgers were hand patted and the toppings were fresh. My daughter marveled that the tomato was tasty...in December. I got a bowl of homemade clam chowder and an egg salad sandwich, both were delicious. Our total bill was $32.26 for three people which was very reasonable for the quality. We are planning to stop by for breakfast on the way home.

Food was really good and a good value for the money spent. The staff was also amazing and very friendly. We drove in from Hampstead just to give this place a try because of the good ratings.

Great place for a quick lunch. Small restaurant with great staff. It is in a tiny town about 5 minutes off of 40. I stopped on my way to Wilmington. This is a great mom and pop restaurant so try it out to support local. I had the club with potato salad. No skimping on the bacon or other meats.

On Saturday Oct 25th the great folks at the Olde Carolina Eatery served a free great meal for Veterans . Francis and her crew are the best. They are down home folks that care about there customers. If you are looking for a good breakfast or a quick lunch or a place to chill for a bit check them out.

What a sweet little find as we travel North on our way back home from South Carolina to Pennsylvania. The owner Frances and her Niece Heather were so welcoming. We both had a sandwich and chatted with the locals for a bit. The little sandwich shop was clean, and inviting. If you want to avoid fast food during your travels, I highly recommend you stop by this little gem just a turn or two off the main highway. Ps. Thank you ladies for the adorable mugs to remember you both. Cheers! Kris & Joe U

Fabulous lunch, had the burger plate, so fresh and delicious! Had the Apple pie, OMG tastes like my grandma's from Back In The Day, wow!!! Love this family establishment, do stop in and make sure to leave room for dessert!!!

My favorite lunch time spot when it is open and I'm not working. Reasonable prices and yummy food! Love the people here

Kind & courteous staff. Menu is basic but food is very good. Down to earth business with very reasonable prices. Food is very good.

We heard about the Olde Carolina Eatery on KIXX-FM (100.5) Had business to do in Burgaw and stopped in for a late lunch. FANTASTIC cheeseburger (had 2) and superb service. Fran and Heather made us feel quite welcome. Since we live about 20 minutes away, this will be our new go-to lunch spot. Excellent food!

Well done decor and a larger space for your morning breakfast. I attended a business meeting and enjoyed this establishment. Would love to see more advertising so people are aware how great this place is right in downtown Burgaw.

Had breakfast here for the first time this morning while spending time with family and I MUST say the food was AMAZING ! The owners are so friendly it felt like eating at my mamas home I will ALWAYS recommend this establishment for breakfast and any other meal!!

i thought the breakfast was amazing as well as the staff. i will be back again. there's nuthn better than a home cooked breakfast with genuine people. thanks guys

Just had lunch there and it was awful. Very limited menu. I ordered a spicy chicken sandwich which was a ground up meat of some description patty. It was horrible. Could not eat it.

Such a fun small town vibe and great food. A perfect lunch spot for my son and I. We enjoy their homemade dessert and hotdogs!

A local favorite! From Cheeseburgers to Chicken salad , You can't go wrong. The food is made fresh and taste great. Very clean with Southern hospitality!
