⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4/5 — Crisandrea Tyree
Service was great. Quick on the food and the ladies are super sweet . Roast pork was good and the mashed potatoes were good. Hush puppies were great. Would definitely go back ! 2 minutes from work! A meat and 2 for $9 can’t beat that!!!
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5/5 — Leon Miller
This ain’t no regular diner, this place is part of my history. My father is from Liberty and as kids on way to visit our grandmother in Greensboro and grandparents in Liberty this was our favorite place to stop. The food taste just as good as it did when I first had it in the 80’s. Nothing has changed and I’m proud of that.

Kidd's Drive-In is one of the best restaurants to have breakfast, lunch or dinner. The food is delicious. Amber and Cathy are very friendly and attentative to their guest. Whenever I am in the area, I will visit again. IKE
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5/5 — April York
Growing up here, whether you said you were getting something from "Kidd's", "Muzzies" or "Busters", whether you were getting a delic sausage egg and cheese with grits for breakfast or debating a dinner of a soul warming hot steak plate or the 'if it ain't broke don't fix it' traditional combo dog, burger, and chili cheese fries, either way it's was a staple in your life. Since moving away I've only found 2 other places that even begin to compare but yet and still always fall short. Plus, no matter your mood, the convenient pull up and honk curb service or the certain to see a familiar face place will pull you everytime to drive in.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5/5 — Jason Ulrich
Simple honest food at an off-the-map joint with local flavor and friendly staff. Just what I was looking for. Try the cheeseburger steak with onions.
