Placed a to go order in person and was told it would be ready in 15-20 minutes. A half sandwich with fries, a bacon cheese burger, and 2 drinks. The sandwich comes with chips and I asked for french fries instead, thinking the fries would be a reduced price since they were a substitution ( Nope). 30 minutes into waiting, I went to the counter and asked the person who took my order how much longer the wait would be for my order to be finished and was told it would be a while yet. After waiting nearly 45 minutes we were called to the counter to receive our order. Had to ask for the drinks we ordered so we could leave. Definitely not the best first experience. I hope others have a better experience.

Everything served on styrofoam, sandwiches you could make yourself with a bag of lays on the side. Menu's not laminated and stained from spills. I got a cup of Hormel chili because I sat down and felt guilty. At least it was only $4.

A simple little diner and grill, in a simple little town. Food is AMAZING, and so are the staff! Highly recommend if you ever happen to be in Harnett County!

Went here for Breakfast. While they have a small breakfast menu, they have the main staples and the food was cooked perfectly. The staff were outstanding! Extremely Friendly, personable and professional. We will be back.

I ordered the Cornbeef sandwich, which comes with a bag of chips that I didn't get bc I ordered a side of fries? It was deli meat, not from a brisket. I ate the 1st 1/2 of the sandwich, which was good, but the other half the bread was soggy from the sauerkraut. I wished I had ordered a hamburger ? ?

Stopped by for a quick lunch on our way to Raleigh from Savannah. And their food was delicious! I had the Stroganoff soup, my husband had a cheeseburger. Even their fries were very well seasoned. The price….amazing! For a family for 4 our total was $32. We can’t even eat at Chick-fil-A for that price anymore. Best little stop for lunch. If traveling through must stop location!

Sweet Magnolias is always a great spot for lunch. They have good weekly specials and all of the regular menu food is always good. I definitely suggest the Farmer Burger if it is the special for the week. All of the servers have always been nice and super helpful. I definitely recommend!Kid-friendliness: The staff and restaurant are very good with kids and welcome them with warmth every time!

Just tried Sweet Magnolias for the first time. I had the Boom Book Chicken Melt and it was delicious. This is a great small town locally owned restaurant. The service was great.

Lovely staff, everyone is friendly & the restaurant feels very homey. We made choices outside of our comfort zones & were rewarded. The quesadilla made me realize I expected less of quesadillas, it was so flavorful & zesty. The fries were reminiscent of the McDonald's French fry of the 90's, crunchy yet soft yet salty but not. Yum. Involuntarily walking down memory lane to the tune of this magic moment.*Focus, this is a review*My husband had a burger. I am good about not eating his food due to past unfair accusations of food theft. This time, I am guilty, but I feel no remorse. It was worth it.Dip the onion rings in ranch.

Simple diner food. The Chilli and Roast Beef Sandwich was good. They don't serve breakfast except on Fridays and Saturdays.

Good was decent, especially for the price. Service wasn't very good, and it's a very quaint place. If you're wanting that, then it's ok.Parking: Had to park either on the street in front, around the block, or in the back and walk around. Not very accessible.
