Food Scene

I've been eating at Grayson's since I was a little girl. They have the best barbeque I've ever tasted. It definitely has a local feel and smells out-of-this-world good. Highly recommended. Try the chip sandwich on a homemade bun and the chocolate cookies. The best time to go is lunchtime.
