Craig's Kitchen

For real southern food without all the New England fuss and frill.
Awesome fried chicken, fried whiting, the black eye peas are a total match to what I expect in flavor.
Could have filled up on the cornbread.
Service was warm and generously hospitable. Makes me miss my time in the south, but helps while I can't be there.
Thank you for the desserts.
We took a menu because we Will be back.

The food here NEVER disappoints. It was nice to be able to eat in here as I've only ever experienced Craig's in its Covid setup(take-out window). If you're not sure what to get, just close your eyes and point at the menu, but I will say this....YOU NEED CRAIG'S COLLARDS AND YAMS IN YOUR LIFE!! Is this place fancy? No, but the atmosphere is that of being welcomed into someone's home, and being fed the most soul-healing food imaginable. Find your way to to Vernon, CT and treat your soul.

Was Trying to decide on what we wanted to eat.
Then it hit me.
Why not try that new to us but old to everyone else soulfood place called Craig's Kitchen.
Best decision we made that day.
They have been around for about 6 years but I came across it on Facebook within the last few weeks. We ordered Bbq Ribs with Collard Greens, Mac & Cheese, Smothered Chicken, Bbq Chicken with Rice, Mac & Cheese and Corn.
For dessert there was Peach Cobbler and Chocolate Cake.
Overall, the food was delicious and very filling.
However, let me tell you about the Peach Cobbler.
That was my very FRIST time trying it, and it changed my life as that will not be my last.
The potion sizes were very generous and we had leftovers.
It tasted even better a day later.
The meals also came with Cornbread Poppers as I called them and Coleslaw.
Apparently.
Potatoes salad was also purchased but I got none. It's located in the center of or downtown Vernon-Rockville.
We went at night time so I really could describe the area that well.
However, the restaurant is ground level so wheelchair accessible.
They do have an inside seating area that has a lot of potential.
The own and the person working with him were very friendly and kind.
They make their own drinks that looked delicious and colorful.
It's about a 20 mins or so drive from the current area we were at. Overall, a great experience and we will be going back.
As we were not disappointed.
Other customers were talking about how good the food was and they weren't lying.
