The BEST fried chicken I've ever had!! It's worth fightin for! Everything I had was seasoned perfectly. No extra salt, pepper or sauce needed. Wonderful food and wonderful people. If you haven't tried Lynn & Bob's, you are truly missing out. Their full parking lot every day speaks for itself. I will be back again and again!!
We were traveling through and stopped for Sunday lunch. Wow! Loved everything! The home cooking was perfect! Thank you for a great meal!!
Lynn & Bob's is an absolute treasure in Swainsboro; in fact, I would drive an hour to eat here. The food on the buffet is fresh and hot, even near the end of their serving hours. I really enjoyed the fried chicken, chicken & dumplings, mac & cheese, and apple cobbler. The southern sweet tea is perfect, the service is wonderful, and the atmosphere is pure Americana. I'll definitely be back.
Just passing through and stopped in for some lunch. The three of us had the buffet and it was delicious. I had the fried chicken with mac-n-chees, and a small spoonful of chicken and dumplings. It was delicious.
Sunday buffet is typical Southern comfort food. The secret is get there before noon, the earlier the better. Parking lot fills up and so do the tables.
As U.S. Veteran I found it to be some what rude for a properly folded U.S. Flag that may have been an Honorable Burial Flag to be stuffed in basket of sorts on top of an buffet cabinet. In my opinion this was a poor choice of display of our Nation's Flag anyway . . .other than the food and service was good.
