The Southerner Sandwich. It has bacon, fried green tomatoes, pimento cheese, sauce of sorts (?), & lettuce. Side of Tomato Bisque Soup. Dessert Chocolate Pecan Pie. All were good but a little bland. It needs something to kick it up a notch.

The all raved about Buttermilk pie was great! It definitely is for someone with a sweet tooth though. But whoever makes these pies has it down to a science. They are light, creamy, and the crust is very flaky. This pie that is not always easy to nail, and they nail it! The other food looks great and smells good as it passes. And everyone looked glad to be there. This beloved place will be a "must stop by" in this small town!

Stopped here on our way to Savannah today. Atmosphere was awesome! Service and food was even better! You’ll spend $10-$15 on average per person, and the food is so worth it! Will definitely go here again if driving by. Also, the buttermilk pie was amazing!!

The server and hostess were nice, I enjoyed the hamburger steak and squash casserole. The corn bread was nice, but to me just average. I liked the buttermilk pie. I only gave a four because after the food was dropped off it was hard to get the waitress back. We needed some butter, a different waitress got us some.

We discovered that the Yesterday Cafe is now open for dinners on Thursday, Friday, and Saturday. Tonight, the Shrimp and Grits were incredible...great seasoning...loads of flavor, and perfectly cooked. Best I have had. My wife had crab cakes which were exceptional. We wrapped up with the world famous Buttermilk pie and it didn't disappoint. Great staff, great food, and great company made for a perfect end to the week.
