Marcella’s Farm to Fork

I live less than a mile from this place, the look may be deceiving it doesn’t look like a restaurant. That being said the choices of food in this county are terrible so Marcellas is a good choice. My wife and I always tell ppl it’s like going somewhere to get home cooked food if you don’t feel like cooking at home. The quality of the food is nothing to write home about, just average nothing special. Inside is cute but very open. Service is always great and they always have a special. I enjoy going here when I don’t feel like driving to Somerset or Richmond where they have options of restaurants.

Located in a county that doesn’t have many options to choose from, this restaurant is clearly the best choice. I have always had a great experience dining here. The food portions are perfect, and the food is always hot and well cooked. I would personally recommend the meatloaf. Their homemade cornbread is also a great side option. All in all, a very good place for lunch or dinner.

Kindness abides here. Great food, wonderfully prepared and presented. Will come here when in area.

In Mount Vernon for the Renfro Valley Rock and Run Half Marathon, checking Unilocal for Restaurants. Marcella’s immediately caught my eye. Deep fried everything. Pure hillbilly heaven. I am a native of the area but have been gone for many years. Haven’t had any real heart-​clogging, artery screaming food like my mama used to cook in way too long. My friend and I met my sister and hubby there for lunch. Beware! Googe maps does not recognize the address, kept taking us to 99 Wilderness road on Hwy 25 South. So I called the restaurant and a wonderful young lady instructed me to Hwy 150 about 3 miles away. My sister and I ordered the fried chicken livers. She had mashed potatoes and fried okra, I had fried taters and soup beans (thats what we hillbillies call pintos). Brother-​in-​law and my friend had country ham. Everyone had fried cornbread. We all tried some of everything. It was incredible. Huge portions, all entries with sides and bread for $ 8.99. It was a wonderful homecoming. A meal that would have made mama proud! Almost forgot, the young lady who was our server was great! Sweet charming and very attentive.

Excellent food. We really had to hunt to find it. Do not follow your GPS. It is the opposite direction of the way GPS says to go… Well worth the hunt though… Chicken livers were awesome! Biscuits wow!

If your looking for good country style cooking this is the place. We stopped by to check out their dinner menu. I had the fried chicken livers and my husband had their chicken fried steak each of which were served with a choice of two sides and fried cornbread or a roll. All that for only $ 8.99 a piece. Our 7 yr old grandson was pleased with his cheeseburger that included fries and cole slaw. We finished our meal with desserts to go: peach cobbler, coconut cream pie and gooey butter cake all of which were delicious. To top it off I Our waitress was a sweetheart checking on us often to make sure we were doing ok. Can’t wait to try their breakfast.

Every time I make a trip back home, I’m guilty of having my mom or dad’s home cooking. A few weeks ago during my visit, my dad’s girlfriend directed me to this place.
To begin, I’ve only had breakfast here & it was fantastic! They also have lunch & dinner menus (I’ve been told good things). I’m always surprised when going back home that there aren’t many legitimate restaurants. There are plenty of touristy spots… Cumberland Lake/​Falls, Cedar Creek Lake, Renfro Valley, access to the Sheltowee Trace Trail, & tons of other notable places.
There’s not a shortage of your typical fast food chains as well as a few select diners (a few of them that still let people smoke inside!). That’s why I was so surprised when trying this place (which is smoke free & very clean).
Marcella’s Farm to Fork is just the right size. The employees make you feel like you’re walking into your own house by how comfortable they make you feel.
I should’ve taken a picture of the menu, but unfortunately I didn’t. I will take a picture the next time I’m in & upload it to Unilocal.I ended up ordering sausage biscuit, bacon, & eggs. They have everything breakfast so you’ll definitely be able to find something. If I remember correctly, my portion of the meal was in the 4 – 5 dollar range.
Half way through my meal, I decided to check-​in on Unilocal!That’s when I noticed that this place was nowhere to be found on Unilocal!
This spot is truly a gem for that area. Any tourists out there looking for breakfast while traveling through… definitely stop here for breakfast! You won’t be disappointed!
