Mayberry Eats



While in Mount Airy, NC we tried out a few different places for eats than we normally go to.
One is a little Drive-In called Speedy Chef. (1516 S Main Street Mount Airy, NC 27030)
Just the cute retro clip art chef on the trash can had me pulling the car towards the place.




It's a classic little hamburger joint.  Nothing fancy at all.


We stopped by for a snack and then became addicted to their pineapple and nut topping ice cream sundaes.  We went several times in the 2 days we were in town!


We, of course, went to The Snappy Lunch for pork-chop sandwiches on one day!
(125 North Main St, Mount Airy NC, 27030)


This time we got them with everything!  Chili, coleslaw, mustard, onions,and tomato.



A new place we found was the Olympia Family Restaurant.  It's nothing historic (started in the 80s) but it's a nice local place for good home style cooking along with some Greek dishes.  I heard sometimes Betty Lynn ate there so I was hoping...We ate here for dinner both nights we were in town, no sightings, but great food and service! (602 Linville Rd, Mt. Airy NC, 27030)


We also made our way to Scoops Ice Cream.
 (5091 W Pine Street, Mt. Air, NC 27030)



Scoops is a fun little place full of metal sculptures and vintage stuff all over the grounds.  The business is inside a vintage ice cream truck that is permanently parked.

Bellies full, let's see a few more Mount Airy sites!
