Joe's Place

Love small town courthouse square! Great place to visit, shop and eat! We're having breakfast! Delicious!

Not bad for a small town. Food was good. Got a little smoky from cooking from kitchen. Service was a little slow.

First time trying this place after coming through this small town for many years going to Warrenton and Round Top for the Antique Shows. Love the old town style of this place. I image an old saloon when entering this place. It was packed tight inside. The wait to be seated was about 30 min. But that told me the food must be good! The service was southern friendly like I expected. The kitchen was smoking like a hat stack and the smoke filled up the dining area. I'm not sure if that is the norm but it seemed to me to be more than what should be expected. We ordered our food and waited another 35 min before our food came out. Again, not sure if that is the norm or because of the Antique Show traffic but it seemed like a bit long. The waitress apologized for the delay in the food without us saying anything at all so I suppose it was not normal. I was with a friend so we had good conversation so no problem. The food was scrumptious! Some of the best fried catfish I have had and the French fries were too! Even the coleslaw was better than most places I've had it. All in all worth the wait and I will be back!

I ate here in August and got a steak. I was very unimpressed. I asked for medium rare and it came out well done. There was zero flavor and it was so dry it tasted like sawdust. We decided to try Joe's again on the first Sunday in October, and after our experience there, we decided we'll never return even though we're semi-local. The three ladies on the waitstaff were absolutely horrible and rude. We went to Joe's Place to have a few drinks and appetizers before ordering lunch. We were there for over two hours due to The waitresses ignoring our table. We only received one refill during the entire stay, had to flag down the waitress who ignored us, but came back 20 minutes later with the refills. I ordered a Cesar salad with grilled shrimp. We also ordered a couple of wedge salads, a burger, and a grilled chicken plate. The shrimp on my salad smelled very "shrimpy" and, again, had zero seasoning... the salad greens were skimpy. We wanted to order desserts, but again, the waitresses never came around the table... they stayed in the kitchen area. I understand it's hard to find good help these days but please consider re-training your staff.

Here for lunch with the Miata Club on a Saturday. You've heard of closing a place down? Well, we opened the place up. 19 cars, so it's a good thing we're here before any of the weekend lunch crowds.Hubs and I had breakfast before the ride, so we're not terribly hungry. We're going for fried jalapeños (cause we're never gonna pass those up) and a grilled chicken breast with hand cut and sweet potato fries. Weird. I know. The atmosphere in here can easily be called "cavelike" -- maybe even "claustrophobic." Part of that might be how beautiful and bright it is outside but the light here inside by the bar is minimal, and the tin roof and walls back here make it feel pretty closed in. (Ok, not commenting on any of the time it takes for service- we ARE a group of 25+ people, and they did a great job of getting all the orders out at the same time)Fried jalapeños came out first, Luke warm. They've got a good heat (spice, not temperature) to them. And the cilantro ranch is definitely worth dunking them in. BIG grilled chicken breast, certainly glad we split it. And a healthy serving of both fries. They brought a second plate for us to split it onto (love the "thinking ahead" for that!) One of the guys just flagged down our server to tell her: best damn pancakes ever! (Now I think we'll have to come back)Decent little place on the square. Worth dropping in if you happen to be nearby.

Amazing food great location cool atmosphere the waiters hade my food out right away and it was amazing.

Shrimp and grits was inedible. Instant grits with shrimp (no seasoning whatsoever) that tasted like it came straight from a sad, precooked grocery store tray. All swimming in the most vile, greasy sauce. You would think the server might inquire when she saw the dish, practically untouched, pushed to the side while I made do with my friend's potato chips. Sitting at the table toward the back gave us a view of random junk just piled around. Horrific dining experience.

Don't stop here for breakfast on the weekend. Sausage was over cooked and don't get me started on the hash browns. Shredded old potatoes cooked in grease. The biscuits and gravy were not bad. Overall not the worst but if I had know I would have opted for a McSausage with cheese.

Great road trip to Fayetteville The staff was very friendly and welcoming to the restaurant. Good selection of southern comfort food. I ordered the pork chops that were prepared in a cherry habanero sauce with green beans and twice baked potatoes. Everything was freshly made.

A great place for breakfast, lunch or dinner. We visited for the weekend. I liked that they offer breakfast and lunch food for either option and alcohol if I wanted to have a drink. I'm a French fry girl and loved all of their different variety of options. Jessica was a great waitress. Very good food!
