On our trip to the Highlands of North Carolina, we stopped at Sid's Sandwich Shop for breakfast, and it was an unforgettable experience. From the moment we walked in, we were greeted with exceptional friendliness by the staff, and we want to highlight the personalized attention from Bobby, the owner of the restaurant. Bobby not only took the time to greet us personally but also gave specific instructions to the kitchen to ensure our Tuna Melt sandwiches were made to perfection.
What really touched us was when Bobby surprised us with a bag of brownie cookies, completely on the house, to take along for our journey. It was such a thoughtful gesture that reflects the high level of dedication and hospitality this place offers.
The restaurant itself is cozy and full of local memorabilia that takes you back in time, including a beautiful Boy Scout uniform from 1964 carefully preserved by Bobby's mother, as well as a fireplace that adds a warm, homey touch. The food is absolutely delicious, with a wide variety of sandwiches and freshly brewed coffee that made our day.
Sid's Sandwich Shop is conveniently located in the heart of Macon, making it a perfect stop for anyone traveling from South Georgia or Florida to the mountains or Atlanta. It's a must-visit spot for a delicious breakfast and an experience that truly feels like home. We’ll definitely be back and highly recommend it to all fellow travelers.

I'm a huge fan of small business restaurants that have succeeded over the years. Sid's has vegetable soup like your mothers used to make. The chicken salad and tuna salad sandwiches were good with a wide selection of breads to choose from, not predestined like the chains.
