This is comfort food with family pride!!! Thin pancakes are a speciality. Biscuits and gravy look like my choice for the next visit! Bottomless cups of coffee, always hot and fresh. Our first visit has resulted in many subsequent returns...today bringing my brother-in-law for his first visit while down for his birthday. The biscuits and gravy had him leaving with a broad satisfied smile.

The place was great. We were seated fast, and our server was wonderful. The food was out to us fast, and it was delicious. New twist on us for the gravy, but it was good, had bacon and sausage in it. 9-15-22 The place was good as always. Service was great and fast. The food was delicious. Had the Philly cheese steak sandwich with a side salad this visit. 1-23-25 - Food was average, but good. Had a county fried steak sandwich, and I had to get gravy on the side for it because it only came with mayo. Hubby got the county fried steak breakfast burrito, and it was good. The service was great, and the atmosphere was comfortable.

Country feel, Breakfast and Lunch Diner. I usually eat breakfast. The Bisquits and Gravy are a “10”. The rest is a “9”. I have always had a server stop by several times for more coffee, and I have never gone without something. Wait staff is very friendly and the food is constantly the same! (Consistency is a +++) 5 Stars recommended!

From the service to the food everything is always really good! The crispy pancakes, biscuits and gravy, sandwiches, and breakfasts are some of the best in town. Locally owned and a paradise gem. My family and I live nearby and eat here frequently! Best breakfast in town with exceptionally kind servers. I also love that they have a cooks tip jar

Great diner!!! We had a great breakfast! The employees were very nice and brought super good hot coffee. I ordered a lite breakfast 2 egg omelet with added jalapeños and home fries. Everything was fantastic. The home fries were probably the best I’ve ever had! We also ordered blueberry cakes and it was amazing!! Definitely a must have. I will be back next time I’m in the area!

I had the chicken fried steak from the lighter side portion of the menu. It was still a lot of food.The country potatoes have cheese on top. Just when you thought country potatoes were perfect... they add chedder cheese! :) Instead of the toast , I got a pancake. It was thin like a crepe with crispy edges. So delicious! The coffee was great, Served in cute coffee cups that are miss matched. A perfect place to have a wonderful meal.
