Shoney's

Its It's pretty much what you expect. Nice, attentive, but underpaid workers. The food isn't labeled well, which was an issue when our little ones got spicy chicken that looked normal. The food was hot but isn't great because it's cheap buffet stuff. The chairs are all sticky (so gross). The price wasn't worth the visit, although the little ones eat free because they're under 2 or 3 (can't remember their specifics on that rule).

We took our granddaughters for brunch Saturday morning. They were pretty busy, but we were seated quickly and the breakfast bar was hot and fresh. The staff was friendly and efficient. It was a great place to take the girls because there was lots to choose from. We were able to relax and enjoy breakfast with the grandkids while someone else did the dishes, at the same time, feeling like we were in a cozy, home like atmosphere.

Our waitress was great but the food want worth the price..my country fried steak was the same thickness as a hamburger patty from Mcdonald's. And the mashed potatoes where like paste. It was ridiculous 2.49 for a drink and 2.49 for a fries that was considered a small.. Won't be going back. But the service was great..

As many fond memories as I have of eating in this very restaurant growing up I must say as an adult Shoney's as a chain has not changed much. In some ways that is good. In some ways bad. I would love to see them offer better quality ingredients with gluten free options. But it is a Southern staple and sometimes (every once in a blue moon) especially amid the hustle and bustle of the holiday season I find myself resorting back to it but predominantly for the breakfast and salad bars. Good place to sit and chat over coffee... and no it's not gourmet.... but it is simple, small town comfort. For out-of- towners it is conveniently next door to a locally owned hotel, Springfield Inn, as well so walking is a breeze.
