I have worked in Fayetteville for the past ten years and this is my first time eating here. This is cafeteria style service and a really wholesome environment. While standing in line some of the customers sang hymns and prayed with other customers. Now let's talk food. Every I ate was seasoned to perfection. The meal with drink and bread is &10 which was a great deal in this economy.

This is a working man's place to eat but everyone is welcome. Great food the way my mom made it at home for us growing up. Not many people cooking this way anymore and with good reason. Not many of us work hard enough for these calories but if you're like me, you'll exercise more to get to eat this food. Hearty portions but it's served in covered styrofoam containers so what you don't eat, you can close your plate and take it with you. I saw many people picking up and taking away. Check out the grocery store next door. I got a huge bag of kale, some yellow squash and some sardines. Good prices.

Food was hot and great seasoning. Everyone was just eating and then go about their business, still being friendly in the interim.

I have been to this establishment many times and owe them a great review. For a Yankee (I dont live in NC, so im not a Damn Yankee) this is southern food. (again to me). You go down the line same as the locals. Order the same stuff, so listen to them, Pork Chops this time, just the best I ever had. Cabbage, so freaking good and the yams, YES! Open till 2pm!

Heavens to Betsy! Bitten by the food love bug once again. Looking to enjoy a meal where every day salt of the earth people eat? Welcome to Kinlaw's y'all! Here you'll find every bit as an authentic southern dining experience as you'll find anywhere in the country. Kinlaw's Welcome Grill is a cafeteria style eatery located behind the actual market. Nothing fancy, just insanely good homestyle southern favorites at an even more insanely low price. Meat, 2 sides, hush puppies, and a drink for $7 even. I don't play with my fried chicken....and this is easily one of the best I've had. Crispy, juicy, flavorful. The mashed potatoes? Hands down the absolute best. Kinlaw's welcome grill is everything I love about southern food. It brings people of all walks of life together in a friendly atmosphere, around a table filled with the most satisfying cuisine known to man.
