Lowell Mill Restaurant

Lowell Mill Restaurant won out for lunch as it wasn't far from the Atkinson Milling Gristmill Museum and also close to the Tobacco Farm Museum. Service was friendly when we arrived and they had the menu on a board and some laminated menus on the counter. I went with a burger and fries. Little did I know that it would take over 20 minutes and when it came out everyone else was pretty much done eating. The fries were also a very skimpy portion. (I hadn't eaten any yet when I took the photo) The burger was a good size with lettuce, tomato slices bacon and mayo. It would have been nice to know the burger was going to take so long to prepare as they said burgers are always 20 minutes. The manager did come around to check on the table so that was nice. I'm not sure I'd return though.

Wanted barbecue was told they haven't had any for weeks. Food was ok. Plenty of park for rv. I would not stop by again.

Good burger...got the Carolina Classic...8oz hand pressed...Coleslaw, carmalized onion, cheddar, and I think it was supposed to have chili on it which it did not but it was still tasty...guess I have to go back again and get it with chili lol....place was clean and the server was very friendly.

I can't believe all of the high ratings and stars for this place. To begin with it's right next door to and in the same building with Big Boy's 66 Truck Stop. So you might know the food here is simply belly filler truck stop food. The emphasis here is on Southern Country food and they even seem to do some Low Country. You have your choice of a buffet or sit down order. I did the sit down, ordering a Country Fried Steak. I sort of knew that at $8.99 they couldn't make it all that good and they didn't. The sauce had been more than liberally doused with white pepper and had the consistency and texture of wall paper paste. Looking around I'd say half the patrons are truckers with the other half being tourists or travelers who have pulled in to fuel up. On the good side, Lowell Mill Restaurant is spotlessly clean and super friendly. For a restaurant I've seen better but as a truck stop restaurant, it's one of the best.

Excellent southern style food. Tastes like you're eating a Sunday's dinner in your grandmother's kitchen. You will not be disappointed.

Good plate of BBQ right off the highway. Friendly waitresses (considering the volume of people they serve) who serve from behind the counter. It's a truck stop so don't expect fancy.

This little restaurant is easy to miss as it is connected to a larger travel plaza. However, the breakfast options in this halfway point from Orlando to NYC are severely limited. We wanted a good southern breakfast, and this place delivered. The food was made to order, delicious, and cheap! We stopped on a Sunday morning a few days after Christmas. Our server was cheery, polite and very accommodating. Definitely the kind of place where you feel like "city slickers" walking in. The exit off of I-95 is not a large exit, and this was the only option here. This is a great alternative to the big chains like Bob Evans and Waffle House. Do yourself a favor and check out this delicious place that fed a family of four for less than $25.

Excellent southern comfort food and close home cooked meals. Service was excellent and reasonably priced.

We stopped at Lowell Mill on the way to South Carolina. We were seated right away and our meals came quickly. I was impressed with the hot and delicious western omelette. My husband was impressed with the hash browns (not home fries) and the crispy bacon. Thank you!

Looked for a breakfast place to stop out during our drive. I picked this one for the high reviews and closeness to the highway. I had no idea it was a gas station Resturant. I don't get the high reviews. This place sucked. If I could give it zero I would. The food was terrible. I've never seen sausage links that looked like male appendages cut off and cooked before. The hashbrowns were nasty. Scrambled eggs were under cooked and under scrambled. I threw the whole meal in the trash next to the gas pumps. Not only that but I your anything other than white, you prob should avoid this place. The confederate flags and anti-maskers were everywhere. Very gross food and very uncomfortable place... and I'm white.
