I have been getting pounds of Tookie's Pimento Cheese at the Veterinarian Clinic I worked at. I was absolutely addicted to the stuff. I often stop by to grab a plate or a tub to take home. The place is small and humble, but the quality it top notch. They also have Chicken Salad and a variety of side. I do not partake of the meat, but my friends often get the Chicken Salad and seem to enjoy it. I will continue to support this business and I hope you have the opportunity to try some for yourself.

I am DISGUSTED by the service at this establishment. There was chicken in my salad! The bathroom smelled of toots. I tried to bring my puppy into the building but apparently only small dogs are allowed. My 5 month old English Mastiff was dying in the heat and he tried to push through the door to get a breath of cool air but apparently he was "scaring one of the customers babies" because he looks like a bear?! Bean does not deserve that. Also, I never met tookie. So angry. Below I added a picture of the salad I ordered. So upset.

Debra has catered so much for my family. Our daughter just got married and they provided a number of amazing desserts for after the rehearsal. She also made egg casseroles and fresh ham biscuits to serve our family the day after the wedding. Everything was delicious and amazing! She thinks of all of the details and even provides dishes/platters if needed. Thanks Tookies. You’re the best!!

This is a nice grill and appears to be family owned. They are famous for their chicken salad but i love a hot dog and crinkle cut fries from there just as much. Very nice place to get a quick lunch. Note, cash only......no credit cards
