Sutton's Drug Store

The food is fine, but Sutton's is a gem because of the people and the fact that the personal service at the pharmacy cannot be beat. The pharmacist/purveyor is a real gentleman and will know you personally if you use them regularly. Plus, the place is usually busy with a cast of characters.

sooo good! filled with unc tradition. i get piles of pastrami with fries and a coke. great for a sunday lunch with the fam, or eating with friends

If I ever get the electric chair, my choice for the last meal will be a Sutton's cheeseburger, all the way, with fries and a coke with cherry syrup. Do not miss this place. The food is fabulous, the atmosphere is Carolina and the experience will bring you back. As great a place today as it was when I first visited in 1978.
