Whistle Stop at The American Cafe

The shimp and grits where delicious! We order the large portion but they made us the small. When the waitress noticed, she brought us a second small for no charge. The kids meals came in a little train which was a blast! The kids loved it and all the train decorations around the place. We will definitely be back.

Great restaurant in Travelers Rest. I had the 109 Burger it was excellent, cooked to perfection with pimento cheese, fried green tomatoes and applewood bacon. Wife had the cheddar cheese burger also really good. Only complaint I would have would be her sweet potato fries were under cooked.

Have driven past this place hundreds of times and this time we decided to stop in, and am I glad that we did! Really cool decor both in the dining room and the covered upper level seating and bar. Fried green tomatoes were absolutely amazing. They were cooked perfectly. I had the Shrimp and grits which is touted as the best anywhere. I would have to agree with this statement. A ton of flavor without too much heat. Seriously, the best I have ever had! My wife had the Catfish. It was light and flaky with a perfect amount of batter. I can see why this place is always packed! We will be back to try some other items that caught our eye.

Such a cute restaurant! They have tons of old signs and memorabilia on the walls with a miniature train that goes around the restaurant. The food is excellent! My sister and I had the hamburger steak with mashed potatoes and fried okra. It was served hot which is a major plus. It was so tasty. Must try the fried green tomatoes, so good! Stop by and try them out, so worth it.
