Olde Town Restaurant 206 South Main Street, Mount Airy, MD 21771

"Dined here a couple times, and walked by many more times. I thought for awhile about how to review this place. On one hand, I like to support small business. On the other hand, this business really needs to make some changes. The food: nothing wrong here. Although my husband detests mayo and specifically asked for no mayo on his burger and they brought him a burger with lots of mayo on it. Besides that, no complaints. The food is not delicious or incredible, but it is totally fine. & The price is fair for what you get. Service: is mediocre, not good but not bad. Atmosphere: absolutely awful. Crowded and noisy unless you can get a seat in a corner. The worst: wait time. They need to allow reservations. There is nowhere to wait - the place is too small. People will be waiting on the sidewalk blocking flow of others walking. Once my husband and I were walking through town exploring and we saw people waiting outside in the rain to get in - it was like a school cafeteria inside, noisy and crowded. There was a group waiting for a table right inside the door and a second group on the sidewalk outside. When we were coming back from our walk, a half hour later, the exact same people were still in line. Who knows how long they waited for a table? The thing is, the food isn’t excellent, the prices aren’t incredible - just totally average. So it’s really not worth a wait like that. I’d wait 5 minutes tops to eat here. The restaurant needs to allow reservations or maybe on weekends require reservations, no walk-ins, to tackle this issue."

"Long time waiting because the place is so popular. But it was worth it. My grandson and I were satisfied."

"Met some friends for breakfast. Nice small town restaurant. Friendly staff and nice atmosphere. Great food too!"

"Waffle with rum-butter sauce and sugar crusting was way too sweet. Waffle was perfect. But I should have known better. This is a wonderful venue. Coffee is superb. Wished staff had checked mugs more often. Overall, this is one of those great independent “mom and pops.” It’s a happy place. I had a view into the kitchen. There was a lot of hand-washing and cleaning."

"DELICIOUS FOOD! The service was excellent as well. TONS OF FOOD! I came in starving and still couldn't finish this VERY hearty meal. I got the country fried steak with home fries, sausage gravy, scrambled eggs with cheese and toast. My wife got the country chicken sandwich that also had sausage gravy on top. If I'm in the area again I'll definitely stop by for breakfast."
