Hi Guys and Girls this is Brantley, Jr. coming at you live from Brantley's Village Restaurant. It is a busy morning here - a little rainy here and we had a great crowd for our Breakfast buffet and we have our lunch specials all afternoon and my mom's class reunion is today at lunch time - lots of friends to see - and she is excited. Of course we are having our Seafood Buffet tonight starting at 5 pm so come on out and enjoy that. I would like to send thoughts and prayers out to Ricky Miller and Foster "Babe" Watts, who lost (wife, mother,sister) Deborah unexpectedly on Tuesday of this week. The family is holding up best they can but please keep them in your prayers. Important to remember that 9-11 is a day to remember all those Americans who responded and gave everything and their families that are left behind - often as time goes by we seem to put things behind us. This is not something we should put behind us , please pray for those individuals and their families and I can't thank enough to all those who responded that day and lost their lives. We will also have the MS bicycle riders coming from New Bern today on the 75 mile leg and 100 mile leg from. Officers are on the road but please pay attention to the cyclists. Stops are passed away on planned: from Hwy 55: Stops along the way are: RS 1 – Dixon Heating & Air, RS 2 – Pamlico County Middle School, RS 3 – Florence Whortonsville VFD, RS 4 – LUNCH River Dunes Harbor, RS 5 – Lou Mac Park Oriental, RS 6 – Arapahoe Free Will Baptist, and continue on the ride by crossing Oriental Bridge—back into the county, heading back to New Bern, A Great ride each year and raises a lot of money for the Multiple Sclerosis. If you wish to donate go to: BIKE MS: HISTORIC NEW BERN 2024. If you were unable to join us for breakfast, I would like to invite you to come on out to our Seafood Buffet starting at 5pm - Delicious! As an early reminder Brantley's will be closed for vacation & working on the restaurant for its annual repairs, painting, etc. starting September 16th through the 21st, reopening on Mon. Sept 23rd. Keep that in mind, remember it is not this coming week but the following week. The food bank boxes here in the foyer have been emptied and are ready to be filled again. We can't thank you enough for continuing to help us to fill the dry good boxes here in our foyer and supporting our local Pamlico Fishes and Loaves Food Bank. Don't forget our friends down at the Old Theater they have a great local "Talent" show coming up on Sept 22nd Reminder: Brantley's Mon through Sat from 7 am for breakfast daily, with lunch buffets and our dinner with specials every night closing at 8:30 pm.

Don't forget about Ms. Sil's statewide famous, chocolate, lemon or coconut cream pies by the slice or buy a whole pie if you like. NOTE: you will see pricing changes https://brantleysnc.com/lunch-%26-dinner-menu compared to our menus. It is so hard as our supply costs are changing daily. We are proud and hold the standard high that Brantley's is known for its Great Food, Great Service and Great Prices and we will continue to strive to do the best we can for our customers on a daily basis. This wraps up everything for this week. Thank you again from Ms. Sill, Brantley, Jr., Mark, Daniela, our family and all our staff for the opportunity to continue to serve you and your family. Please come and See Us Soon at Brantley's where the Tradition truly continues! Blessings to All and Thanks to God for continuing to bless our Country!
