Coffee Shoppe — Restaurant in Harpersville

So, wanting something different, a taste of local cuisine, I looked up this place and took a extended lunch break in my travels and drove 25 mins to give them a whirl. This little place is beside a Chevron convenience store and is very busy, especially on Fridays, however they do stay open until 8pm on Fridays. Mon-Thur they close at 2pm and was told the best time to come was 10:55am or 1pm, you choose. Upon walking in it was a seat yourself with table service and pay at the register when done kind of place. Service was extremely friendly and I wasn't even seated good when the waitress came and took my drink order. With the tea arriving I placed my order which took a fair time to receive a fresh cooked to order meal. The tea was light to medium in color and not overly sweet, yet still very sweet. It could have had a little stronger tea flavor. I ordered a mushroom Swiss burger with what I would call shoe string onion rings. The burger was cooked to a medium well and it was a hand patted, super thick burger with some flavor too it. The gravy on the burger tasted good and was not re-warmed, the mushrooms were tasty as well. The onion rings were some of the best that I've put in my mouth, WOW! With a crispy batter outside, the onion itself was cooked so as not to be undercooked and chewy, these were cooked to perfection. This was a great meal for under 15.00 and if your in the area, stop in and give them a whirl!! Two thumbs up from me.

On a funny side note, with all the pictures I took the waitress was concerned something was wrong, when I was simply preparing for this review, thank you for you concern...

We came in a couple of weeks ago on a Saturday and thought this would be a nice experience...unfortunately it wasn't; the food was very good however the service was terrible...We waited for an hour for our food and it wasn't very busy...not one explanation as to why and not even an apology...when the food was coming the waitress explained they were out of biscuits and I would be getting one instead of two so at that point I felt it was necessary to make sure I was only getting charged for one lol...the food came and when I got my order it didn't have one of the items that came with it so I asked where it was and she said she thought I was replacing it with a side I had ordered but said she would give it to me no charge...well if it comes with the item I ordered then there probably shouldn't be an extra charge!...they have regular customers and it seemed they were the welcome ones...I'm sorry but I don't see any of us going back and if you're not a regular it's probably a shot in the dark if you'll have a...

We read some really great reviews on this place, so decided to stop for lunch. Arrived at around 12:15 and it was busy. Ordered Cheeseburger and fries and wife ordered Turkey Sandwich w/onion rings.

Took quite awhile for food to arrive, but they were busy, so no problem. Cheeseburger was lukewarm and overcooked. The cheese was not melted on the burger. The bun was cold...fresh out of the refrigerator. My fries were room temperature, they had been sitting for awhile, prior to me getting them. Wife's Turkey on the sandwich was cold...after we were done eating the waitress said she could have had the turkey put on the flattop to warm it. Thats nice to know, after she had eaten the sandwich. Should have let us know that when we ordered. Onion Rings were good... Maybe we just arrived at the wrong time, lunch rush.... but won't find that...
