I had the Chicken Casserole and it was great! Creamy and packed with shreeded chicken. The green beans and Mac and cheese were good sides too!

I'm not a fan of the cafeteria-style presentation of it, but I sure am a fan of the food! In the area for a business trip, the locals kept raving about the Village Cafeteria. "We have to go on Wednesday because that's the day they have chicken casserole." Ok, so it's been planned for a few days already. Looking at the chicken casserole, it didn't look too appetizing to me, so I chose the country fried steak, a good southern default choice, smothered in brown gravy, with a side of mashed potatoes & green beans, all washed down with a huge glass of sweet tea. What a great southern lunch! My coworker kindly offered a bite of his chicken casserole because he believed so much that I should try it. Goodness, I should have listened to him! Delicious! So good, in fact, that I ordered one to go for dinner later that night. And I added on a piece of their chocolate oreo cake: chocolate cake layer, oreo icing layer, chocolate cake layer, chocolate frosting layer. The casserole was still good warmed up hours later. My dessert was large, but a little dry. The icing/frosting layers were really yummy, though, so that kind of made up for the dryness. I'm probably never going to find myself in Chatsworth again, but if I do, I'll definitely need to get more casserole. Unfortunately, it's not served every day, so I'd have to schedule it strategically.

Really small place, but it's pretty popular! It's a little cafeteria style place with a lot of southern home cookin'...fried chicken, mashed potatoes( which are awesome), macaroni and corn bread. Really good if you are looking for a cheap lunch that will fill you up!

Great catfish fillets, to bad you can only get it on Fridays. Baked beans were mediocre, boiled cauliflower had no taste even with cheese poured on top. Broccoli casserole was a little greasy tasting. Wheat bread was good, so was the tea. I should have got the green beans, corn & mashed potatoes there always good. I've been eating here since I was a kid and have always enjoyed something on the menu each day. The service is always excellent. Prices have went up a bit. This will still be regular stop for us since we are local.3 stars today due to food. I would rate it a 4 or 5 any other day. I will post another review next visit.

Nice local joint with home-cooked stuff like baked chicken, chicken fried steak, mac and cheese, and veggies. Very casual and staff was super friendly. Kids didn't care for it but they like McDonalds, so ha!
