Bestfood Cafeteria

After being on the road all day, we popped in for dinner. The cafeteria has a cute shop in the front that you can browse through before you get to the cafeteria in the back. We got there close to closing time and most of the food was almost gone.I got the chicken pot pie, baked potato, and corn with blackeye peas. Don't judge the picture too much since it looks like someone threw up on my plate. All of it was very good and I couldn't finish all of it since it was a lot.It has been a long time since I have ate in a cafeteria. It was a bit of a throwback for me reminiscing the experience. The staff was friendly and got our plates filled up with what we wanted.

Great throwback to cafeterias. All the food options were plentiful and appetizing in appearance. Desserts are even better. Freshly brewed iced tea. Unsweetened was awesome.Food would make grandma proud. Not overly seasoned.Service was efficient for refilling drinks and clearing dishes and trays. Seemed a bit tired, but it was Friday night an hour or so to closing.Casual ambiance, everyone knows everyone. I'd eat here again if in the area.

This is an old fashioned cafeteria and the food is great...the choices are plentiful and the food prep is really good. The staff are awesome and so helpful. If you're looking for a throwback in time, this is a great place. I will definitely visit when I'm coming through again. It feels like it's been serving since the 50s. I love this place.

Good food and friendly staff but a bit pricey for being a cafeteria. Desserts are very tasty also.

MehhhhhhhhDon't come here for ambiance or great service.. fried chicken and the liver are good however

Cafeteria style food holds a place in my heart and Bestfood does it right. Nestled in a strip mall, they share a entrance with Haley Bales and the gift shop. It's your typical cafeteria design where you get your silverware, drink, tray, someone plates your food, you get your roll or cornbread at the end, they give you a ticket, and then when you're done you pay at the cash register near the entrance. They typically have about 6 meat options and 8 or so side options. The selection is smaller than other cafeterias but this means that it's fresher and the quality is better. They also do kids plates, which is a smaller entree portion and two sides. Last night I had beef tips and rice, with a side of green beans. My little got the fried chicken, okra, and pasta salad. I am not once to eat fried okra because most times it's still slimy inside. This was not the case. It was so delightfully crisp that my little called it a "hush puppy" and ate half! They didn't even bat an eye that this same little decided that a cucumber from the garden would accompany him to dinner and that we needed to cut and serve it at the table. All of the food was great. The service is good, as they have one attendant for each dining area who will check on you and refill your drink as needed. The inside is just tables and chairs, and you can push tables together for a big crowd or just your family after church. But be prepared - Sunday lunch will have a line that is sometimes all the way back to the entrance. This place will forever be one of my favorite places to eat, and I'm glad my family likes it too.

Honestly, this place is slept on. People under a certain age write it off because it is a cafeteria! Don't do that my friends. If you are in the mood for grandma-style dinner, come here and be amazed! The best chicken pie for miles and luckily, you can take home a frozen one for a family dinner at a later date. Prior to COVId, they had a pretty great salad bar--it wasn't open the last time I was there but it could be because I was there at the end of lunch. There is also a cute little store to shop in after you eat!

This cafeteria has the best of home style country foods anywhere we can get !!! Love love the country style steak and there slaw, although everything I have ate here was great !! We drive an hour away very often to eat here !!!

The food needs improvement Rice was dry and too firm. Green peas were on the hard side. Stew beef was full of fat. Didn't realize they had salad until later. Big waste of our money.

We eat here frequently and find the food and staff to be consistent. They have the BEST fried chicken! I also really like their chicken pie and country style steak. The vegetables are good - typical southern style, and the tea is also good. (The ice is the little round pieces that most everyone likes to get.) I haven't had many of the desserts but the ones I have had were good. The German Chocolate pie is my favorite. The staff is always friendly and attentive. The facilty is clean. You pay when you leave. They have frozen chicken pies in a variety of sizes as well as a few other items you can buy to take home. There is a small shopping area at the front of the building with an assortment of seasonal items, a few clothing options, jewelry, garden flags, etc. Sunday's are super busy after church so expect a line. The longest we have waited was about 30 minutes and that was when the line was all the way outside the entrance door. The line typically moves quickly but is dependent on how quickly the guests make their choices. It isn't the fault of the staff! Sadly the salad bar has been discontinued, but I understand why.They open at 11:00am, close at 2:00pm and reopen at 4:00pm. Sunday is from 11:00 am to 3:00pm only. They share the facility with a steak house, so don't be intimidated by a waiting crowd. Some of the guests may be there for the steak house.
