Ever since Dora Ann Campbell opened Campbell’s Diner in 1971, locals have turned up early and often for impeccable sweet tea, specials such as chicken pastry, turkey and dressing, and homemade banana pudding as good as your grandmother made. Campbell and her husband, Junius, a World War II veteran, no longer handle day-to-day operations but still come in regularly to eat lunch and visit with customers.
Several old-timers regularly hold court here. They discuss everything from the new governor’s transition plans to prognostications about how cold it will get this winter.
