Greggs Restaurants and Taverns

I'm with the OP here. This place STINKS!!!

And if they don't know you by name (like Billy Bob or John Boy) you get treated like dog ***. I have never received such awful service in my life! I went in to order some food there because it looked popular and at the time it was slow. Went in at 11:05 and ordered my food immediately.

Ordered two burgers and noticed at the top of the menu it said "served with fries" so I thought "Cool,I only have to order two extra fries for the kiddies instead of four overall." *** teenage cashier looks at me after I order the two extra fries like I've just peed myself and says "You know, fries come WITH the burger." to which I reply "Yes, I know. It's on the menu. I just need fries for the kids." Sit and wait fifteen minutes, not a bad time to wait on two burger meals, two sets of fries and a small salad (by the way, WAAAYYY overpriced for what you get!) and the waitress who brought the bag read my order back. "You got two burgers and a salad." to which I reply "Where's my extra two fries?" Her response?

"You know, fries come WITH the burger." At which point I say, for the second time, "I know that. I need two extra for the kids." "Oh okay." I get from Miss Rhodes Scholar and she goes back to get my fries. You'd THINK she'd put a rusher on those fries since she screwed up the order but OOOOOHHHHHHH NNNOOOOOO! My fries go to the back of the ***.

I watch order after order after order of fries come out of that kitchen and I even see two patrons who came in AFTER me eat and go on their merry way, all while I'm waiting for two lousy orders of fries I already paid for. TWENTY MINUTES later I FINALLY get my fries without a word of apology, a good old "Oops, my bad" or anything. It was more of an unspoken "You got your fries; now get the he## out of our restaurant!" evil glare from the gossiping cashier and other waitresses.

Needless to say, when I got home, the flavorless burger (all I could taste was the bitter onions that had been stored improperly) and the cheap fries that only got half eaten or the GREEK salad (that never got eaten because I have to replace the Kraft Italian dressing I got with it), I know now NEVER to waste my time or hard-earned cash on this dive. :(

We really like Greg's. Friends and family have all been and we have never had a bad meal or bad service.

In fact, just the opposite, pleasant staff, good food, service isn't the fastest but we go to relax and enjoy each other's company, not just sling down some fast food. We have dined for lunch, dinner, and had take out - no complaints.

We went to Greggs for dinner after sitting at the hospital all day with a family member. My husband ate BBQ and said it was the best he had ever had.

I had a Philly Cheese steak with fries and the fries were the best I have ever had.

On Saturday after leaving the hospital again my husband wanted to go back to Greggs and get some more BBQ...We will go back again and recommend it to family and friends. Wanted to go after church on sunday but it is always packed.

Just returned from lunch here & it was GREAT. Food & service perfect. I'll be back.

Only concern 96.5 health score should be brought up.

My husband eats here most everyday....something different on the menu and he really wants to eat healthy. I recently joined him and love the place.

Great food, and we've always had great service....and the price is very reasonable. Your drink comes with the vegetable plates which makes it great.....also they have decaffeinated tea, which most place do not.

For everyone who has posted on here, I'm not sure what happened, but the place has completely new management. A name change and everything. I asked what had changed and the employees told me that Greg had left. They didn't tell me why, but after my meal there I didn't care.

My wife and I had excellent service and the cashier was friendly and fast. It seems like the management has stepped up a lot. We had by far the best breakfast there yet- hot, delicious food fast... and the kicker is they had everything we asked for!

This place has got Cracker Barrel and Georgio's beat by a mile. Bottom line is, if you live in the area you have got to give Greg's (North Main Restaurant) a second chance.

If it is so bad it is strange as the place is busy every single day. I have been several times and had a pleasant visit each time.

The location and their variety are two great factors. A hidden gem to those nit familiar with the area...

I have been at this place several times and always have fast service and great food. I have one waitress I ask for in particular, she is always friendly and makes sure everything is perfect for my husband and I.Everyone one should give it a try.

also for those who write these bad comments I really dont think you wanted to give this place a chance. Then again if you have never worked in customer service you would be *** to the waitresses and cashier.

Gregs is an excellent place to eat. I eat there about every day.

There's always something new for you to try. Daily specials, nice atmosphere, good people, great service with a smile. Feels like a good down home restaurant.

I will continue to eat there. I would recommend it to everyone.

As for the guy who said Gregs Restaurant in Lowell NC sucks. You must be an ***.

I drive from Lincoln County to eat at this fine family restaurant. Also you are probably a *** yankee who doesn't enjoy good cooking.

I'll bet you are also a democrat who voted for Obama! Do us all a favor and go back where you came from!!!!!!

I'm going to try it for the first time with my wife. I live in Cramerton and breakfast is my favorite meal, eggs over med, sausage, hope they have home fries.

I won't go back if the eggs aren't done right, if anything is cold, or if the service is bad. My tip starts at 20% and goes down from there; I have given more. Oh, and the coffee better not be that cheap stuff.

Wish me luck. 7:35am 9/17/11

Ok, well, we'll be going back to Greg's! Everything was great, they had home fries.

We were asked about drinks within 2 minutes then got our food 7 minutes after we ordered. The waitress was very attentive. $11.59 for two full breakfasts; tipped $4.00. I hoped for a good coffee but got the standard restaurant stuff.

The menu had a great variety, the specials looked great, my wife says very inexpensive too. Don’t believe everything you read, try this place for yourselves, we recommend it!

Overall, poor management skills and pos workers are to blame for the poor quality of Greg's Restaurant. There are a few good ones there, but the bad out weighs the good!

I live in lowell, and know what goes on there! Half the employees are stoned out of there head daily and just don't care! Clean house!

There are plenty of straight, hard working people out there looking for jobs! I will never eat there!

Absolutely the worst restaurant in Gaston County. How in the world can you screw up breakfast as badly as they do?

Undercooked homefries, slow service, high prices, and why on earth do they put a slice of american cheese on top of an omelette? Who does that? Greg's "restaurant" does. I've tried them three times so this is not a snap judgement.

Avoid this place at all costs. Such a shame really.

I"m not sure why the negative comments, to each his own but i just discovered Greg's a few months ago and I love that everything is made from scratch and have never been disappointed with anything they serve. Best Turkey and dressing I ever ate. Everyone that appreciates real food made from scratch should visit Greg's.

CLUELESS MANAGEMENT! The Greg's in Charlotte is so good and the one in Lowell is soooo BAD for too many reasons to list.

They really do not know how to run a restaurant, which to me seems odd as there are two other Greg's locations in addition to Lowell. I will certainly never go back!

To Pat Nixon Stanley, NC Being from the north or a Dem has nothimg to do with the it. Im from the far north, and enjoyed every meal Ive had at the Greggs.

who cares if your a cop, and if their really was a"roach "crawling on the table u should have said something right away. :cry :(
