**Restaurant Review: Mixed Experiences at Local Gem** Nestled in a remote area, this restaurant exudes charm but faces criticism for its cash-only policy and outdated ATM. While some patrons celebrate its vibrant atmosphere and buffet-style Southern offerings, others lament inconsistent food quality, noting soggy sides and overcooked meats. Many have fond memories of past visits, praising its fried chicken and BBQ, yet recent experiences have been disappointing, from greasy sauces to unappetizing desserts. Despite the friendly service and community spirit, diners feel that improvements are essential to maintain its status as a beloved local haunt. A call for better management and culinary standards resonates strongly among guests.

Was Nicole Herzog at Schoolhouse -b-que a mag?
Southern food at its finest. BBQ. Buffet style food, sides and dessert, all you can eat inside the restaurant. The cost was comparable with other restaurants, and plenty of room to sit and enjoy the food. Cash only as they do not take cards but they do have an ATM inside if you need cash. View all feedback.

What Bailey Mohr dislikes about Schoolhouse -b-que:

Furthermore, we had to wait a few minutes for the cashier to... View all feedback.

If you don't like this place, there's something wrong with you. When we lived in Florence, we'd go at least 1-2 times a month. My son I are going to visit this summer and you can be sure we'll be stopping by.

Great spot for BBQ buffet...old schoolhouse turned restaurant...the place is busy enough so that the food doesn't sit long. Pulled pork is southern vinegar based, smoked sausage and chicken tasty, as were the collards and tomato/okra dish. Cash only, lunch $13, well worth a visit.

It's wonderful to hear about the positive experiences people have had working with Mrs. Emily Alison in crypto, binary, and forex trading. As someone who is new to investing, I decided to tap into her expertise, and I can confidently say that she's incredibly talented. I initially invested $1,000 and saw a remarkable return of $12,000 within just a week. I want to express my gratitude to Mrs. Emily Alison for her dedication to delivering on her promises. I also encourage others to share their own experiences. May she continue to be blessed!

This is some of the finest Carolina barbecue you'll find in a state that boasts an abundance of excellent barbecue spots.
