Lowell Mill Restaurant Review

Stopped here on the way back to VA. The food is all cooked fresh and the hospitality was truly refreshing. Will be stopping here everytime I pass thru!!

3 words will sum up the breakfast.Greasy,Greasy,Gross.

Eat here 2 times a week. Food always really good and the prices are great. Always gives a lot of food for the money.

Tasty food, wonderful service, nothing like southern hospitality.

Horrible service the last 2 times I have been. Both times were take out pizza. The first time they messed my pizza up which was ok everyone makes mistakes but instead of apologizing and remaking the waiter stood there and argued with me and said that is what I ordered, I order the same pizza everytime I order(pepp,bacon) he proceeded to tell me I was a lier so I asked for the manager and she did handle him and remade my pizza. The 2nd time I called a take out order in at 8:47 pm and the waitress asked what I wanted to because they closed at 9 and I understand that so I told her I wanted a pizza for take out and she told me that a PIZZA takes 20 mins to cook so she couldn t do it. So I hung up then thought about it and called back talked with a manager and the manager stood up for her saying that she didn t say she couldn t make it, I had my phone of speaker 2 others heard the waitress also when she said she couldn t make it. The manager said she would make it and it would be ready in about 15 minutes. I went up there about 15 mins later to get my pizza and the rude waitress was at register waiting for me never spoke to me at all, then tossed my change to me very rudely so I spoke and told her she did not have to be so rude and she just smiled. I got my pizza and walked out and she started laughing so I turned around and explained to her how unprofessional she was. This restaurant is right down the road from my house and the food is fairly decent that s why we order from there but I will be taking my business elsewhere now. Before the new owners took over it was a much better atmosphere.

Awesome service, you don t see Truck stops like this anymore. Everything clean and ton of parking

Not very good tonite. The buffet looked all dried out and our dinners ordered off of the menu weren't right. I plainly said no gravy on my hamburger steak, I got gravy , my daughter ordered rice and gravy and Liam beans for her sides, got rice without gravy and lima beans and corn together. Don't know if we'll go back and eat in again, probably just order fried chicken to go. The restaurant just isn't as good as it used to be.

lovely food, cooked fresh, "you can not beat the price", great hospitality???
my experience was nothing compared to that. we ate there because we were desperate. I know not to bother to stop at that spot next time! what kind of restaurant is that?
Nasty cups, ladles were Nasty and all broken, crusty food on the sides of the pans, soggy vegies. my 2 year old who ate out of my plate was charged $5. waitress did not even bother to ask her age. lunch is $12 for that type of meal??? we lost our car key. they saw us look around for it and asked around. we sat around not knowing what to do because we drove from up North going South with a little child. they did not bother to ask if we lost our key because apparently they've had it since we got up from our table. ??? wjy they held on to our keys that long i could not begin to imagine. who rated it 5 stars must really like that kind of place. Kudos to yall!

Ordered and paid $4.38 for a bacon and egg on toast, got home and cheese was on it, I don t eat cheese. I called and I was told to come back and they would make another. I really didn t want to go out but she seemed to act as if that was the only option. When I got there the one that took my ordered asked if I had brought the other sandwich back. I gave it to her. After checking the menu and prices when I got back home I was over charged. A bacon and egg is 2.85 and an eggs is .75. I wasted more gas having to ride back out there and all I got from her was I m sorry , no change back at all. I know it wasn t much but it was my money that I work hard for.

Good buffet. Reasonable prices. Service was a little erratic but very congenial.

Good sit down restaurant with home country cooking!

Very friendly staff. Even late in the shift they were still friendly.

Decent food, great service, but I did see bugs crawling around the window sill.

No frills truckstop atmosphere, cheerful service. Good food and low prices. $4 breakfast specials. We had 2 good omelet meals for a total of $13 that beat the last $20+ Cracker Barrel meal.

Well the staff is very nice... Very disappointed in breakfast. Now mind that we learned long time ago ya don't send food back... So we dealt with it. Made sure to tell them though. Potatoes laid soaked through with oil but not cooked. We prefer eggs in the omelet to be cooked. And although the gravy had a good taste it was watery. Again everyone so very nice. Just must have been a very off day for food. We will try it again some other time. Hopefully it will look like the pictures seen here and taste better.

Love coming here.. Like everyone says .. The staff are great. Ate here tonight. Terry waited on us. She was fantastic. Talked to us like family.. Was the first time back since the remodel of the restaurant.. Was looking forward to the buffet.. Its gone.... But the food is still good... And still priced good. Will continue to come back...

Cook stood at the window listening to me order a pizza, then after I paid the waitress was on her way to the window to tell him what I ordered. Even before she told him he said, we are out of those. He could have said something before I paid. Then the guy behind me ordered a cheeseburger and they gave him a plain hamburger. Customer service and cooking aren't rocket science.

Very disappointed I read good reviews expected a restaurant. It was cafe/ fast food style order and pay at the counter before you get food and you serve your own drink. They do bring food to the table. But very small choice of food options. Food wasn't even edible and no refill on my coffee. Service was disappointing also. Store and bathrooms were clean. Seemed over priced and I didn't eat the breakfast scrambled eggs were brown,grits were too salty served in a Styrofoam bowl. Managed to eat the black burnt dry toast no jam was offered.Won't be returning to eat here.

Great family owned restaurant with home cooking. Had a wonderful breakfast there. Good prices and really, really good non-stop coffee. Staff and service was friendly and very good.

Terrible service and mediocre food. It took out family of six over an hour to get our food.

Truck parking. Knife and fork food. Good menu, great food & nice folks

Way overpriced for very poor quality of food and just out right horrible service.

Place was empty, but it still took them 20 minutes to make two wraps.

Took too long to receive food and rather pricey for lunch.

Okay so I had to change my review from one to five stars thanks to Wanda she is a woman of her word and reflects the true meaning of customer service!!!! She made a previous bad experience turn the tide into a good experience

Thank You Wanda

The most awful service I have had. Walked out without even getting what was ordered.

Catered a friends 1st birthday party at our horse barn in Kenly. Food and service was outstanding!

Great service. Good country food. Lovely waitress. The soda was nice and cold. They got a 97% food inspection rating just 3 weeks ago.

The people are great and friendly. The food is fantastic

Truck stop atmosphere, which was fine for us, and the food was good, but the prices were out of this world !!

This is a great place to eat and the food is awesome and the staff will make you feel like family.and the food is very filling and very well priced. I would recommend this place to everyone this a family run place.the owner is very nice and friendly .

Good environment. Good food. Well priced and portioned. What do you want????
Local feel, friendly....
