Service is good and friendly. My banana Split came in a cup and I ordered a hamburger with fries. The hamburger was good but I wasn't keen on the fries. Also I would have liked more ice cream with my banana split and less nuts and syrup. Good location, right off highway 70.

Family got four combos all our fries were burnt as well as the okras. You could smell the odor of burnt grease. I tried to call they put me hold and never came back to the phone. More

Not bad. Hot dog with chili, onion & mustard. Never had one made like this & it was very good. A very little spicy on the chili but barely noticeable. People there are super nice. 4 hot dogs with one side of crinkle fries $11. Nice. Thank you. We will be back!! More

This is a local diner, small, and very busy. Their food is freshly made to order and delicious! It's tiny on the inside so I didn't eat in, but there were lots of customers doing so. Staff is friendly and well-known in the community. More

There’s something sacred about a place like Terry’s Tasty Shop in Goldsboro, North Carolina. It’s not chasing trends. It’s not catering to foodies snapping selfies. It’s doing what it’s always done—serving up the kind of food that makes you stop, take a breath, and remember why simple is so damn good.
Terry—yes, she’s the boss—is the kind of woman who’s not just running a grill; she’s running an institution. She’s the heartbeat of this place, and you feel it in every plate that slides across that well-worn counter. There’s no BS here. Just burgers, dogs, shakes, and the kind of soul-soothing classics that could bring a grown man to tears on a rough day.
Start with the Big Tee Burger. It’s not trying to impress you—it just does. Juicy, messy in all the right ways, and served with chips that crackle like the 4th of July. The Bright Leaf hot dogs? A Carolina classic, done proper. No frills, no gimmicks—just that signature snap and nostalgic flavor that hits somewhere deep in your memory.
And then there’s the slaw. Good God. It’s not just good—it’s transcendent. Cool, crisp, with just the right balance of tang and cream. It’s the kind of slaw that makes everything it touches better. On one of Terry’s hot dogs, it’s practically a holy experience—like heaven itself created a topping just for this purpose. It doesn’t sit on the dog—it belongs there.
You want comfort? Get the hamburger steak, smothered in onions and rich gravy, with enough heart to carry you through the worst kind of weather. Come winter, the vegetable beef soup shows up like a warm hug in a Styrofoam cup. And don’t sleep on the chicken wings—crispy, seasoned, and not afraid to bring a little heat.
And the soft-serve? The milkshakes? This is the stuff kids grow up on, and grown folks come back for. It’s Americana in a cone, thick with nostalgia and just enough sugar to make you smile without shame.
One note for first-timers—don’t be surprised if your burger is interrupted by the roar of F-15s overhead. The shop sits close to Seymour Johnson Air Force Base, and jet noise is just part of the soundtrack here. It might make you jump at first, but after a few visits, it starts to feel like home—like flavor and freedom shaking the sky together.
Terry’s doesn’t care about Michelin stars or Yelp elites. It’s feeding people the way food is supposed to be served—hot, honest, and full of love. It’s a roadside gospel of greasy-spoon glory, and if you can’t appreciate that, you’ve lost touch with what food is really about.
Goldsboro’s lucky. Places like this don’t come around often. And once they’re gone, you don’t get them back.

Great food! Nice friendly atmosphere. I ordered the cheeseburger with ketchup mustard and chilli it was delicious. The combo came with fries and a drink. I had to get the sweet tea. It also ranks high on the flavor and overall taste of the tea. I used to come here as a kid with my mom and dad ... I hadn't been in a while but it was just as I remembered it !! Taste and all!!!

Very cute place. Hotdogs (all the way) were very good. Malted milkshake tasted delicious but, could have been a little thicker...still, would definitely go back for another one.

My wife and I were looking for a little something to nosh on for lunch and decided to give Tasty Shoppe a try. I ordered two Sausage Dog meals with Fries at the walk up window. Our food arrived in a reasonable time frame and we took our lunch home to eat. The food and atmosphere are typical mom and pop, drive up, American style comfort food. It was good and the prices are very reasonable.

Really friendly service, good food and fair prices. Came 30 minutes before close with my three children and they were more than happy to get us set up at a table and serve. Very American style food, and large portions for the price. Thank you for the lovely meal. More
