I can't believe that people keep coming back to this hole in the
wall , redneck restaurant. The food is nasty, no taste. The food
is normally cold when they bring it to the table. They need to have
more people cleaning this place, it has improved over the years,
new restrooms, but they need to keep up the work. I guess if you
are over 60 this is a nice place

Located in the middle of nowhere about 9 miles north of West Jefferson,
NC, Shatley Springs Inn is a well known and beloved establishment.
Open only early April thru early November, the sprawling, ramshackle
building contains shops, and several dining rooms with a 19th
century country kitchen atmosphere--long tables and ladderback
chairs, families talking, laughing and loving. Across the front
is a wide porch--no veranda here--containing antiques and comfortable
rocking chairs. Some nights there is music on the porch as well
as in the front dining room. You'll need the rockers to sit a spell
in the mountain air and digest the wonderful vittles--unless,
of course, you happen to have taken a cottage for the weekend.
There are three fishing ponds in which you are welcome to try your
luck. Situated around the main building are several shops selling
crafts and such. But the main attraction is the food--lots of
it, all you can eat, served family style in bowls brought to your
table by friendly, pleasant, local girls and women. The chicken
is probably the best you will have ever tasted--including what
your grandma cooked, and they only serve the breast of the bird.
Country ham, so salty you'll consume a gallon of the wonderful
iced tea, is served with gravy and biscuits. There are bowls of
green beans, cabbage, pinto beans, cole slaw, creamed whole
kernal corn, and fluffy REAL mashed potatoes. There is chow-chow
for the pintos, and to-die-for Garner's strawberry preserves
for the hot biscuits. Dessert is ice cream and your choice of cobbler--apple,
blackberry, strawberry.
Nearby is Healing Springs, an old resort with the spring still
open to the public--and it really works for the rhematism!!

Every year, for the past twenty, my family and I have dined at the
Inn soon after opening and shortly before closing. In between
we have introduced dozens of friends and relatives from the far
reaches of the U.S. to the wonders of Shatley Springs Inn. We hope
you, too, will go and enjoy a most wonderful experience.
