Granny’s Drive-In

Everything is nice and hot and Just as we ordered it. Their french fries are fresh cut potato and wonderful ! The steak sandwiche is a small thin steak but was juicy and tender and came just as he wanted. The fried squash is delightful, hot, and not greasy. The trout sandwich has two huge pieces of trout and lightly battered not greasy at all and tender and flaky. The sweet tea is freshly made and brewed taste great the lemonade is like your mama would make In other words don’t go to any fast food place– drive to grannies!

This probably is the Coolest place in Louisburg! Winner of the Rod0 «Food Hut» award!

Squash, Thick Cut, thin batter, Deep fried, INCREDIBLE Flavor!
Onion Rings, Thick Cut, incredible light batter, incredibly greasy, incredibly tasty, a little too greasy!
Hut Dogs are Hot Dogs made in a Hut! Hit Dig is a Hot Dog with slaw, this slaw has Mayonnaise in it (I hate Mayo)! Still this is a GREAT Hut Dog!!!

Casual eating establishments are de rigeur in Louisburg and are principally dominated by major fast food franchises. While this is not the sort of town to sniff out the cutting edge of molecular gastronomy, there are some independent staples present.
It is terribly easy to decide to satiate one’s hunger by a quick turn into a drive thru at Wen-​BK-​McD-​TBel-​Boj etc… while overlooking one tiny very, very casual place one block off the main drag.
Grannys is amongst the independent staples that, fortunately, has not disappeared. This is a small square shaped building in need of some cosmetic assistance. But, rule # 1 of good casual food is the uglier the better.
You can order your food two ways at Granny’s: walk up window or drive thru window. It was raining so, I bravely stayed in my car. As I wasn’t very hungry, despite it being lunch time, I ordered only a single ¼ lb cheeseburger with my choice of condiments from the pleasant voice behind the speaker. I could have ordered from an extensive list of menu choices.(hot dogs, sausages, trout, flounder, BBQ, grilled chicken pork chops, …) I stuck with an old reliable for my first time here.
After a brief wait, I received my burger and I drove to a nearby parking spot to open the warm, white bag. As I removed and then unwrapped the simple burger, I noted the neatly assembled simplicity of my soon to be lunch. The bun was fresh and warm, possibly even steamed. The burger had been apparently made on a griddle.
With my first bite, I appreciated the the freshness of the flavors. The meat was juicy and had a great tender texture. There was no doubt in my mind, it was real meat. It simply had a quality of a real burger you might take the time and care to prepare for your self at home.
On my next visit, I’m excited about trying the rest of their menu !
