Petee's Good Foods — Restaurant in Travelers Rest

I wish you could rate places twice because the people in there seemed really sweet. All employees, no owner. Folks in there said Pete passed about 4 years ago and I don't know if it was ever a good place, but currently, it is obviously being neglected by whoever took over ownership. It's clean enough on the outside with the old faded sign, obviously designed with great care by someone who had a dream of opening their own place, I'm guessing in the 1970s. But the menu, the décor, the equipment don't seem to have been updated since. The inside wasn't filthy but it would be hard to call it clean. It just had the look and feel of one of those old restaurants that have gone through the same cleaning routine for decades without any updating or major sanatizong to speak of. Same can be said for the menu. The food was old school basic. Food & food prep have come a long way in the last 20 years, but not here. I'm not saying they should add avocado toast and smoked brisket on toasted cibatta with arugula and aioli with an esspresso bar, not everyone's a pampered hipster. But even the basics have been improved upon over the years and the uninspired preparation of the food at this joint is stuck in time. All the employees seem to muster enough energy to stay positive enough to do their job, but like the place does in general, they give the vibe of being trapped in a mundane lost cause. Whoever owns this place has some work to...

I've been driving past Petee's almost everyday for 30 years now, though it's been around a lot longer than that. Half of that time, the sign outside advertised a Philly Cheesesteak. For a while, it also advertised a cheeseburger. To me, Petee's represents nostalgia, and reminds me of the old TR, before they built Walmart. It hasn't changed in all these years. It's a steady rock in our town. If you think it's fun to travel back in time, you'll love Petee's. It represents a basic small town diner, and simpler times. No need for anything fancy. It's a place to hang out with friends and family. I like to imagine what it was like when it was new. I've only eaten there a few times in all these years. Can't say the food is anything special, but Petee's still has some charm, and it's worth a try. To me, Petee's represents home. It's an old familiar sight. I hope the owner and management can keep working towards having an appealing menu and clean atmosphere that Petee's and TR deserve. Thank you Petee's for being a constant beacon in...

This place looked so gross from the outside we dared eachother to eat there. Petees Good Food is an oxymoron. One of us said "sometimes these greasy spoon places are awesome." This place delivered! It was actually WORSE than we thought. One of us got the Jumbo burger: Paper thin with a ton of mayonnaise. Fries? Tasted like they were sitting in a room five years with mold. Chili hotdog...!!! Looked like dog food. Place was so disgusting we talked about the comical value of how bad it was for the next three hours. How in the hell is this place still operating? It looks abandoned, and I'm a hundred percent sure any positive reviews are fake. Hilarious this place,...
