“If you know, you know… and now I know. I stopped by the Percy Flowers Store while traveling through Eastern North Carolina and grabbed one of their almost famous hot dogs — and let me tell you, “almost” is the most humble understatement in North Carolina history. ?? That hot dog didn’t just meet expectations… it sprinted past them. Perfectly dressed, packed with flavor, and served up with that classic small-town charm you just can’t manufacture. The kind of place where the food is simple, legendary, and somehow tastes like a memory you didn’t know you had. From the moment you walk in, there’s that nostalgic country-store vibe that makes you want to stay awhile. Friendly faces, quick service, and hot dogs that deserve their own fan club. It’s no surprise this spot has built such a loyal following over the years. Whether you’re local, just passing through, or hunting down the best hot dogs in Eastern North Carolina — put this place on your list. I’ll definitely be stopping back by for more… and probably sooner than I should. ?? Thank you to the Percy Flowers team for keeping tradition alive and serving up food that brings people back again and again. Places like this are what make small-town North Carolina special.”

“If I could give this place 100 stars. I would. My brother and I come here after a hard day visiting our dad in the nursing home. Yes it might be more expensive than some would be willing to pay. However; my brother and I think it’s worth it. They are always so friendly and kind, and it’s what we need after the stressful day. The food is always top tier. The hibachi fries is our go to. However we’ve tried other things and they’ve also amazingly delicious. I know it might be silly but Selma mini mart has become a staple in my and my brothers life and I’m sad I didn’t find it sooner.”
