What's Cookin' Restaurant and Catering

About

We’ve been Charleston’s go-to spot for family gatherings, weekend breakfasts, and hometown service for more than 35 years.

Story

We started with one waitress and a recipe for strawberry bread out on Lincoln Street more than 35 years ago. Since then we’ve added a few more members to the team, a few more items to the menu, and moved into a bigger and better location. We’ve built our business to reflect the values of our family, our neighbors, and our town. Every dish we serve is based on our tried-and-true recipes, from biscuits and gravy, to our French onion soup, to that famous strawberry bread. Our team’s been around for awhile, and they’re always happy to see a familiar face.

I have no idea what their food is like. I can only comment on their customer service. I walked in and was asked how many.. not ever a good morning or any form of a proper greeting. She tried to seat me at a dirty table when there were several clean ones around me. I asked to go to a 2 person clean table right next to the dirty one and she said it was okay. I then waited for 12 minutes and no one approached my table. I watched 4 other parties get sat after me and 3 of them received water and a greeting within 2 minutes of sitting. I eventually got tired of waiting and walked up to the register, set down my menu and left. I guess that's what I get for trying to support a local business in a small town. No structure or standard of service whatsoever

Family friendly dining. Serving staff are great. Daily specials add to menu choices.

Food and price was good. Tables weren't getting cleaned off very well. Sticky and lots of food bits on the chairs

The food was decent, nothing to write home about. Its your normal breakfast fare. The prices were reasonable and wait staff was friendly.

I've lived in Charleston for about a half of a year and have never been here. My husband and I decided to go out for breakfast. My husband got the panther breakfast with ham and I got the blueberry pancakes with bacon and hash browns. I throughly enjoyed the meal and so did my husband. He even made the comment "I think this is the best ham I've ever had." The environment was very home like and made you feel like you have lived in the town forever. Very small town like and the staff were incredibly nice. As we went to pay, our waitresses even gave us a sample of their famous strawberry bread, which is AMAZING. We will definitely be back!! Thank you guys for the great experience.
