Simply put, these are some of the best fast food rolls I’ve ever eaten. And they taste just as great today as they did 10 years ago when I lived right around the corner from a Grandy’s restaurant. In those days, I would eat there a couple times per week.

The soft fluffy yeast rolls are baked fresh throughout the day, and they go quickly. In addition to being included with Grandy’s plated meals, they’re also sold by the 1/2 and full dozen. Chances of getting a cold stale roll are extremely slim. These rolls are so popular, most people order extra to go with their meals, and many stop by just to pick up a box of hot fresh rolls to enjoy with their own home cooked dinner.

So light and airy, they almost melt in your mouth. They have a smooth buttery flavor with a bit of sweetness that’s a joy to eat plain, without adding anything. Once they mix the dough and place it on a baking sheet, it’s allowed to rise, and they brush the tops with honey butter, which gives the slightly sweet taste and wonderful golden brown color. They’re also delicious split-open with jelly or jam, and they’re awesome for dipping into Grandy’s cream gravy that comes on top the steaks and potatoes.

The Dinner Rolls from Grandy’s are excellent. It’s hard to get very excited about a roll, much less a fast food version, but these are consistently fresh and delicious.
