Stopped on our way down 95. Great southern buffet, and seems like a local favorite. Staff extremely helpful and attentive

This place is amazing! The lunch buffet was absolutely delicious: fried chicken, mashed potatoes, sausage in gravy, biscuits, sweet potatoes, green beans, Mac and cheese, etc. The fried chicken was so fresh and yummy. There is also a salad bar with regular salad fixings, fruit, desserts, etc. The staff were all professional and courteous. We would come here every time we are in the area! Highly recommend!!!

We enjoyed the breakfast old style food. Ypu can ask them to cook it to your desired taste. Loved the home made fried potato's. Buffet looked great, we wished we had more time to taste the home made buffet.

We stopped here, because the place is conveniently located along I95. We are so glad we did. Husband had the buffet and I had the chicken fried chicken. I can honestly say that I never had a fried chicken this good. It was not greasy at all, but juicy and tender, and very crispy and the same was true for the fries crispy and delicious and everything was hot out of the kitchen.We will definitely stop here again on our travels. I can’t wait!

We stopped for gas on our trip and asked the attendant if there was anywhere good to eat…she directed us to exit 57 in Walterboro SC to Olde House Cafe. If you want an amazing homemade buffet that’s fresh, hot and true southern cooking!! Do yourself a favor and stop at this gem!! Great service, amazing chicken…..they also have items you can order that is not a buffet.

I meant to take a photo before I started eating but I was hungry. It looked and smelt so home fresh that I started eating.When I say it felt like we were at home or a family members house, we did. The staff were talking to us like we were kin.Prices were so good, especially for portion sizes.When they came to collect our plates, I have a smaller appetite so didn’t finish all my food and our server joked, “oh, honey. You gotta clean your plate.” I felt so at home. When going through this area….. you have to go stop by. I would give more than 5 stars but can’t.
