I'm almost afraid to write this, but Down House has the best chicken and waffle I had. And the Mac and cheese. I know Jus Mac's downstairs...

I recently revisited Down House for brunch and decided to sit outside. The servers were helpful and the food was delicious. I especially enjoyed the well-made burger and the side salad was also tasty.

Down House is a fantastic spot for any meal! I recently visited for brunch on New Year's Day with some friends. We all loved our meals, however...

A cool meeting place. Good service and a nice cocktail menu and several wines on the glass to go with the beer list. My shrimps and grits were a bit cold and our other things were just fine.
