Went to Bums for breakfast this morning. Food was good, waitress was very pleasant. We noticed after we got home that we had a "service charge " on our ticket. Why? For using our debit card? Is this a new practice? I guess we'll have to cut back on the tip. 3.99 %.

I was greeted with a smile. Saw an old high school associate and got to experience some real food. It’s the real food for me. They’re not using canned collards or store bought potato salad like many other “well known” restaurants are. They’re cleaning collards and peeling potatoes! It was seasoned well. I did add a packet of sugar to my potato salad though. The prices are reasonable and the chicken taste like my aunt Mattie (RIP) fried it so it was a win in my book!

One of my favorites! Go see Spanky in the mornings! Not only is it the BEST BBQ but a great family there as well! My dad was best friends with the owner. It means alot this place its a childhood favorite also!!! Love BUMS!!!

Good down home cooking with staff who are spot on. They are familiar with their customers and what we order and it's ready in a timely manner. These folks are family in our own little Mayberry!

Good food. Resonable price, A local meeting place,Vegetarian options: Lots of vegetables appearing to be cooked with a small amount of oil.

Passed by today for good country helping of almost everything on the menu LOL was absolutely fantastic. First off I had no problem getting my son's wheelchair through the door. I found the prices to be quite fair and reasonable for the delicious food you are getting. I'm from Charleston originally and this is the best lima beans! I had the fried chicken in the ribs and a whole bunch of sides. I like that the soda was extra large also. I highly recommend this restaurant the food is absolutely delicious! Terrific customer service and wonderful ambience hometown at its finest!

Attended a conference in Ayden and we walked around the corner to Bum's. It was lunchtime and a bit crowded and of course it was about 30 or so of us so we packed our patience and waited our turn. The servers were able to get everyone through the line fairly quickly. They had an array of main entrees and side dishes. I got the chicken and BBQ, collards and mac and cheese, a roll and banana pudding. I couldn't resist so I tasted my banana pudding first and it was still warm. I was in heaven it was so good. The food was good and plentiful as I had to wrap it up and take it with me. Ended up splitting the rest up for dinner with my husband, the portions were that big. The Pepsi was strong and cold and the waitresses were nice and helpful.
