Ok, its a dive. But it's a great, iconic dive. Good food, good prices, nostalgia all in one. Go. You've gotta do it.

I adore this place. I used to go to the only original Woolworth's Diner left -located in Bakersfield Ca and this place is not the same-but a nice replacement for me. Staff are friendly and the food is really good. I've tried numerous menu items and have been happy with them all!

While in town for a show @ Cat's Cradle, I stumbled across this establishment stuck in time. Eclectic UNC team photos and alumni adorn the walls and ceiling. A large assortment of soda and odds and ends can be found before entering a diner style area with an obscure pharmacy in the rear. The biscuits were good and the coffee was not bad. Service was above par, but the restrooms are dated and a bit cramped. A must stop for the UNC fan.

This isn’t a knock on Suttons per say but I am super annoyed with the experience I had this morning in regards to the homeless people who harassed my family as we were getting out of the car. I had my 1 year old and wife in the car, when we parallel parked next to the Wells Fargo atm right by the suttons breakfast spot. My wife and I have always loved eating there when she was going to school at UNC. Chapel Hill and the businesses there have slowly let the homeless infiltrate every part of the town. The three men starting approaching me while I was getting my infant out and yelling at us calling my wife shorty! I almost pepper sprayed them but decided just to drive off and give up on eating at our favorite chapel hill breakfast spot that I’ll never visit again, unless they resolve that issue. Had the same situation happen in Harris teeter at car mill in Carrboro where a homeless man was harassing us while we were trying to buy groceries asking us for money IN THE STORE! The “progressive” nature of chapel hill has slowly made this issue worse in my opinion and I’m happy I don’t live there anymore. It would be nice to enjoy the business when we visit family there without feeling in danger, but I guess that’s not a reality for now. Hope none ends up getting hurt. It’s really sad. The state hospital there has essential caused a Mecca for homelessness in that town.

Worth a visit if you are in Chapel Hill. A place with rich history in town. The food is also very tasty. Be aware that it closes early.

One of the few Chapel Hill restaurants remaining from my undergraduate days at UNC. Great food and memories. I miss the Rams head Rathskeller, Ye Olde Waffle Shoppe, Hector's, Swensen's, and Mama Dip's.
Located within walking distance of UNC Chapel Hill, it's an old time drug store with a diner type restaurant. Cheap and cheerful. Service was fast and food was good. What more could you want? We got breakfast and can customize to your liking. My veggie omelette was very tasty and filling.

A fun local experience. I wasn't expecting it to be so much like an actual drugstore, with a working prescription counter and non-restaurant layout. It's cheap, has all sorts of local charm, and is fast.

Great restaurant with great food at an inexpensive price, especially when you live on a budget. It's one of my favorite restaurants. The staff is exceptionally friendly and helpful. I recommend this restaurant out of most restaurants in my area.
