This southern cafeteria is straight out a northerner's dream of what the south must be like. The food is great, but it's really about the classic ambiance. I had fried chicken, collard greens and banana pudding and I was not disappointed.

I'd give it 5 stars, but it's not meant to be that kind of place. It is straight out of Mayberrythe kind of comfort food your grandma cooked back in the day (if you're from the south, anyway). From that perspective, it's delicious.

5 stars for the old school ambiance and 3 stars for not having any grilled chicken/fish options for my new school diet with a preference for very little grains, starches and gluten. I settled for the beef and gravy with green beansvery good, although a tad to much sodium for my taste buds.

When you want laget home cooking, come here. On the weekend get there around 12-1 because there is a line out the door for people waiting to eat! So worth the wait too. The setup is really nice. Hint Matthews "cafeteria". It is set up exactly like a cafeteria you stand in line you pick up a tray fill your food up and then pay for it at the end.

Matthews is about as good as a meat and three gets, and I write that as a fan of such cuisine. In my view, Matthews has been success for 70something years simply because they season food well in its preparation. Over the years, I've adjusted to 21st century pricing that rarely gets me out for less than $10/head. My only suggestion is that maybe now that it looks like y'all may make it, you might want to go ahead and drop a few $s into replacing some of the WWI surplus metal chairs. Breakfast is a treat as well. Nothing fancy, but a pretty good 5am nosh. FYI---written several of these now of establishments haunted for nearly 2 decades. No 5 stars yet. The logic being that once 5 stars is give, then what? so Matthews = 4+ STARS

Best home cooking around, beside my Grandmother's. The chicken is perfectly fried. The mashed potatoes were creamy and just right. You could definitely tell they were homemade. I wonder how many pounds of potatoes they have to peel in one day? And the strawberry shortcake oh my! I can't say enough good things about this place. The staff was friendly & helpful. The food great. Overall wonderful dining experience. Highly recommended.

Whats the hype about? Food is ok. I do appreciate a local down home vibe and small business support. I recommend a visit or 2. I have tried it again and still the same.
