I stumbled upon this delightful spot while visiting Newberry, SC. I am so glad I did. The food was incredibly fresh and absolutely delicious. They offer a great selection of sandwiches, ice cream, and homemade baked goods—including cakes, cookies, lemon bars, and cheese straws—that taste just like something out of grandma’s kitchen. The staff was not only professional but also genuinely helpful and kind. I even had the pleasure of meeting the owners, who were warm, welcoming, and shared the sweet story behind the name of the establishment—truly touching. If you find yourself in or near Newberry, do yourself a favor and stop by. This place was such a wonderful surprise and an all-around great experience. Highly recommend

Yummy, yummy, yummy... First time there as we are visiting the area. We had chicken salad and chili dogs, and will be placing our pre-order for donuts this weekend. Sandwiches, cookies, cup-cakes, ice-cream, cakes, parfaits, milk-shakes...

We were in Newberry for a doctor’s appointment and found this place online. We both got the hot dog plate and then got cheese straws and banana pudding cake to go! Everything was delicious and the people were friendly!

As I was eating a bacon cheese burger, I realized that I had to make a review of the food. The burger and fries were fresh, juicy and delicious. The service friendly and welcoming. The prices were reasonable. Although, full from eating we had to return later for milkshakes and cookies. Also, delicious.

This place is AMAZING. I’m disappointed in google for not having this higher in recommend when I searched “family friendly restaurants in Newberry, SC” because wow. The story behind Laila’s Place to the incredible food and the dessert?! Out of this world. Customer service was great. Not to mention it’s black owned! It’s unfortunate that I live 2 hours away but I will absolutely be back!! Especially for more banana pudding ice cream!

Went to Laila's Place with my parents. We had burgers and the roast beef sandwich. The burgers were some of the best we have had anywhere- not greasy nor salty, just really tasty. The roast beef sandwich was full of meat and tasty too. My parents got the potato salad and two of us got fries too. Everything we had for lunch was good. The service was excellent with friendly staff. We went back later for ice cream. Lots of ice cream choices there.
