“Good ole southern food”

Y’all come on in! We take pleasure in serving up some the finest made-from-scratch diner fare in Charleston. We get up early and stay up late to feed early birds and night owls alike. Be sure to check out our Daily Specials alongside some of our famous staples like Chicken and Waffles or our Fried Pork Chop with Red Pepper Jelly. We line our walls with art by local artists and provide a place to go where the atmosphere is as comforting as the food. Its seems the word is out that “The Bird is the Word!”

Let me start by saying that this place is the worst kept secret in all of West Ashley! But it is so worth the fight for parking and the awkward wait for a table! Once you sit (there's also a bar to sit for your meal), you can enjoy the local art (for sale) hanging up on the walls, and how relaxed the staff is. The staple? Chicken and waffles, and I'm not just being "southern" when I say it should be the first thing you try. Pecan-encrusted fried chicken with hearty waffles that have a hint of spice to them (how I like my ALL FOOD), is not a dish I recommend passing up. Yes, they can cook the chicken without the pecans if you're allergic, and yes, they do have vegetarian options! This is West Ashley, after all, home to all with particular lifestyles and preferences.
