Time-Out Restaurant

After a basketball game I was starving and thought why not get some Time Out. I tried their classic chicken biscuit sandwich and it did not disappoint. A huge chicken breast on a delicious biscuit. I'll definitely be back!!

A classic place on Franklin street for a chicken biscuit. Service was fast and the r place is set up like the old location was. There are benches and tables for sit down dining. Still the best chicken biscuit in Chapel Hill.

The food here is excellent - if you're looking for classic Southern food in a classic Chapel Hill establishment, this place is it. If you love college basketball, this is filled with UNC basketball imagery. I've had this food many times and it always satisfies the craving for good Southern food. I'm docking a star because the service here can be very variable. I ordered a combo with a soda - only to find out that the soda machine was broken after I already paid. If I had known that the soda machine was unavailable, I wouldn't have bought a combo with a soda.There is also no bathroom here (or at least, that's what they told me when I asked) as an FYI. This location is much better for take out and ordering than dining in, which is disappointing since the restaurant decor is excellent.

I first saw Time-Out on "Man v Food" with Adam Richman, and have been coming ever since. The Chicken Cheddar biscuit (as simple as it is) is absolutely delicious, and one of the best biscuits I've had. Everything else here is very good as well. Definitely worth a quick detour off of I-40 when traveling.

Food is tasty but always pre-made so the freshness will vary. Inside, it looks run down, the A/C is broken and they blast Fox News 24/7 so it is one of the more depressing experiences available on Franklin St.

The biscuits here are great! The fried chicken is tasty, with nice crisp breading. Service was good, nothing special. We sat outside since it's nice out. The picnic table was a little wobbly but was comfortable. Great location for a 24 hour spot.

Oh my goodness. The food is so good. Good taste, portion sizes are good and the cornbread. THE BEST CORNBREAD! And the best part is it's open 24 hours. Please get the cinnamon roll. No get two you will thank me later.

I stopped by here with my son sometime after 12:30am on a Friday night after leaving the Vintage Movie Theater. We stood outside for a solid 10 minutes looking at the online menu before deciding to go in. When I went in, I looked at the actual menu for a while. It then started to get busy. I ended up getting in line around 12:45am. While waiting in line, fresh chicken came out and of course I didn't get it. I ordered the dark meat combo with cabbage, mashed potatoes, and cornbread. I finally got my food around 1am. The mashed potatoes and cabbage was delicious! I had a huge helping of mashed potatoes. I hadn't had either, especially cabbage, in so long. My thigh was really crispy, warm/hot, and delicious. My drumstick, on the other hand, was on the lukewarm/cooler scale and not crispy at all. The cornbread was somewhat of a let down. I was really expecting more and wondered if I should've gotten the biscuit instead. While it was fairly large in size, it tasted overcooked. It wasn't nasty and I ate it, but it definitely wasn't a nice piece of golden cornbread. Overall, for it to be a place open 24/7 and selling soul food, it wasn't bad. I would come back.

All I can say is - what a disappointment! I have long heard about this place from friends who went to UNC and shows like DD&D and MVF. And it didn't live up to the hype. In fact it was pretty awful. They only get 2 stars because of the space, the history, and the awesome ladies at the counter. The chicken was dry AF at 11am on Saturday (a game day). The macaroni was mush. The cheese was weird. The biscuit itself was awesome. But overall, a disappointing meal that I was sad to cross off my bucket list. I'm guessing this place survives off tradition and most their patrons being drunk off Franklin St.

AWSOME chicken breast biscuit!! Great drunk food. It's not a dining experience, just a good place for biscuits
