“Love this family-run staple of local foods! The food is fantastic, service is always great, would 100% recommend if you love small ma and pa restaurants! ❤️👍”

“Service was terrible food ok”

“I ordered over the phone for pick up. When I got to the restaurant I was greeted with smiles. The warmth of welcoming me generated off the owners of the place. The food was good. Homemade coleslaw, cornbread muffin, and seasoned fries helped make the meal. The cost is very affordable and with the size of the plates you get great value for what you pay. The plate had weight to it, it was not light. I took a few menus to place at work and I hope this place stays in business a long time. I highly recommended it for the hospitality, pricing value, and quantity of food you get.”

“Passing through and found this spot. Great food at an amazing price. Cooked up by a super nice guy. This place is a must stop.”

“We had a large group of friends on a Wednesday evening. Service was good. The food was very tasty. I ordered 3 tamales. The was no choice: meat or sauce, so I was nervous. Turns out it was chicken with queso sauce. Very good. Clean restrooms
Great mango margaritas yummy!”

“Great service.”

“Best place in Kinston to eat.”

“My family came in from Florida we went to Pizza Villa.. It was a nice experience..it was on a Saturday night so it took a little longer to get our food.. The food was good.. the atmosphere was nice”

“Fabulous selection of sandwiches and more! Made fresh and delicious! Great desserts as well!”

“Great place to eat”

“I want to preface by saying that this cafe is a great place. I’ve been a regular customer here for well over a year. The employees are all kind and polite. They have a large variety of coffees, smoothies, refreshers, baked goods, breakfast and lunch foods. I’m pretty picky about my coffee, and their Snow White latte is amazing…. HOWEVER! The wait time for the drive thru can be ridiculous. I’ve waited 30 minutes for a single coffee MULTIPLE times. If you’re able to go inside and get your coffee, then definitely do so. However, for someone like me who uses the drive thru often because I have no other choice, it’s extremely frustrating. When my husband was deployed I would go through the drive thru to treat myself, with my newborn in tow, and would leave feeling beyond frustrated because the wait time would be so long that my newborn would wake up and inevitably proceed to scream the entire time we sat there. Now, my baby is 13 months, and the issue remains. He’ll be asleep in his car seat, I treat myself to a coffee, I sit and wait in the drive thru for so long that my baby wakes up and proceeds to scream. I place my order online each time, so it’s already paid for and it’s not like I can just leave the drive thru line. Please, have mercy on us who use the drive thru and improve the wait time. It feels like we get forgotten about and definitely not prioritized. It’s almost bad enough that I’m considering not returning. It’s just not worth the excessive long wait time.”

“Cutest place, sweetest atmosphere You MUST try the cookies!!”

“Great experience overall.”

“Everything was excellent! Very clean and friendly employee. All the toppings were filled and they had a BIG selection to choose from. Sitting area inside was clean and open.

Kid-friendliness: Kids cups available behind the counter!”

“They have some of the best pizza I have ever had! 10 out of 10 definitely recommend!!!”

“love the scenery and beer”

“As always, The Counter team delivers! The service was fantastic (multi tasking at its finest!), the food was excellent, and even though it was busy we didn’t wait long at all. Most importantly the margarita I had was one of the very best I’ve ever had! A must stop on our way to/from the beach!!!”

“new management.. absolutely delicious. hubby and I were really impressed and can't wait to try something different the next time!!”

“The food is always on point! We miss Saturdays that’s why we stop through the week ! 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟”

“Great place to go hang with some old friends and make new friends. These guys make the best cocktails!”

“We have had the worst experience ever today at this restaurant we ordered and 30 minutes later still no food my husband went and asked about the order the manager stated our order would be right out and apologized for the delay. The waitress came by and asked if everything was okay I said no we have not received our food she looked at me and said oh and walked away. 10 minutes later still no food so we got up and left. We stopped to see if we needed to pay for the chips and drinks the girl at the counter said no so we left. This is the first time this has happened we have had slow service in the past but the food has been good.”

“This is great brewery in a great location. They have a diverse beer list. There’s always something special on tap.”

“atención rápida y es nutrición”

“Great bar with great people running it. Amazing place to have a birthday party for your buddy turning 21 or even just watching March madness. The atmosphere is that of a typical bar but not typical for Kinston. Doesn't feel like a bar fight might break out or someone is packing and looking for a reason to use it. Love this place”

“We got the fish sandwich special and it was ok but nothing to brag about. However, Latonya was our server and she couldn’t have been sweeter. She was very attentive and came back to check on us multiple times. She was excellent!”

“the Chinese food was excellent and would get the tacos again”

“I just love them and always have! Everything I have had created has been wonderful.”

“I have been going to Chen's since they opened. I have watched both sons grow up to the amazing young men they are today. I love every thing about Chen's. No issues at ALL. STRONGLY RECOMMENDED.”

“We visited the shop for the first time yesterday and were really impressed! The man that helped us pick our meats out of the butchery was super nice and helpful. Everything was reasonably priced considering you’re paying for everything to be raised and slaughtered at a local small farm. We will definitely be back!!!”

“Great food. Fast service .”

“My families favorite restaurant in Kinston. When family comes to visit we always get food from here. We love it !!!”

“The meal was excellent, but service was slow and somewhat lacking in detail. The coffee was lukewarm and the server didn't tell us about any specials(we overheard her tell the table next to us after we ordered). That said, I would still go back for the food...loved the collard "chips" and catfish salad!”

“Make sure you go to the Tap Room and entrance and not the Brewery door. Good selection of beer with 10 different seltzer on tap. Outdoor seating and indoor seating available.”

“This is the place to go to get real authentic Mexican items, that tend to be local favorites. The owner and their children help take care of the place and they are wonderful people too. It's been a pleasure coming here anytime we needed something, like certain spices you wouldn't find in the average grocery store. It has a hometown feel to it and get to know these people as I have and you will be rewarded immensely. These are good people to be friends with as I am happy to call them great friends.”

“WE DEFINITELY ENJOY HAVING THEM HERE AT ARCHIE'S AND THE BEST FOOD AROUND TOWN”

“Great drinks! Love the decor and ambiance! You date night peeps need to check this out! Beautiful place and atmosphere and awesome bar service!!!”

“Great food, great service and great prices. We’ll definitely be back.”

“This cafe doesn't care about their customers so don't support this Cafe.”

“The food is always good and I love me some hibachi on the go!! I have stopped in for lunch many times. They also have other great items to choose from so, feel they have something for everyone. I will always recommend this place for lunch. Great food and fast and friendly service every single time.”

“Off tha chain I will definitely be going back soon...I danced so much that Sunday got up Monday my legs were sore., Great atmosphere with grown folks that know how to party and the drinks are on point...”

“I really enjoyed the food. I had a turkey sub and french fries. I am not kidding when I say this was absolutely the best son I have ever eaten in my life. The employees are very kind and helpful. I definitely recommend this place!”

“love this location. I always get the soba noodles”

“They are very courteous. very child friendly and their very service oriented.”

“BEST TACO BELL IN THE STATE. Kind, well stocked with menu items, timely, and clean. After a long drive from the other side of the state trying to get to the beach, THIS Taco Bell is exactly what my family and I needed.”

“Took my elderly mama to breakfast this morning. The cashier was extremely nice and patient with her while she decided what she wanted. The food was hot, fresh, and very tasty!”

“I gotta give it to this Taco Bell. The customer service was excellent. This is probably the best Taco Bell where the employees acknowledge you and treat you with respect. I give the crew today my utmost respect”

“good food, lovely staff, reasonable prices”

“Thank you to the staff at Kings! They made an accommodation for my son who has food sensory. As door dash limits your options I asked if he could have hushpuppies in place of another side as he steals all of mine and his siblings ☺️ he devoured it and only left a few fries!”

“Nice clean place and very friendly staff. Nobody acted like they were mad because they were working. Enjoyed our food and the people.”
