What People Are Saying
from Google"I have lived in Stallings for many years have never been to Phat Daddy's Cafe until this day. It will definitely not be my last time. This amazing restaurant was right under my nose and I had no idea how awesome it is. Don't let the plain store front fool you. The inside of this Cafe is so charming with that hometown feel. The serving staff were absolutely the nicest folks. And the food was spot on. I recommend the cheese grits. Yummy. So, I highly recommend this sweet little hometown restaurant. You will not be disappointed. I am ready for another visit."
"We walked in around 10:45 on a Saturday. It wasn't very busy, we were told to grab a table. Or drink order was taken right away and the food order was placed shortly after. 45 minutes later our breakfast (for just 3 people) came out. The server was sweet, but never offered an update on the food. The hostess sat up front and read a book. Also, it's their restaurant and they can do what they want, but the 8 foot Glamour Shot memorial to someone's deceased mother was off putting, as was the makeshift memorial for the deceased father. The food was very good once it came out, but I will not be returning. It was not for me."
"First time going here, tried it on a Sunday morning. Was no wait but a nice crowd. Walked in and the lady manning the front register wasn’t exactly the most welcoming. She assumed I was there for a pickup, asked what name was the order. I told her I’m there to eat inside. She gave me a menu and told me to seat myself. I did, took a good while for a server to come, I saw one couple leave because they didn’t get anyone to their table for a while after they sat down. But I wasn’t on a schedule so I waited it out. I had two different servers which I assumed were working all tables together. Both of them were delightful and friendly. I ordered a veggie omelette with hash browns. Both were good but I do wish the veggies were chopped down a bit smaller. I go to pay my ticket and same lady at the front register didn’t even ask how was my food/experience etc. just took the ticket, swiped my card with zero interaction. But in any case I’d go back simply because I did enjoy the flavor of the food and the two waitresses were sweethearts."
"What an amazing spot. There is consistency with the food quality. Their omelets are amazing!!! I always add jalapeños. Coffee amazing, service amazing, clean, family friendly, priced appropriately-love it. I’ll be back again"
"We have been coming here for 10 years now. We even stop in when we moved to VA. They have great food. Establishment is own by a hard working family of women. Highly recommend the pork chops and Phat Daddy burger."
