Food is always great! If you want comfort food-this is the place. A bit of a drive-but worth it.

Love the atmosphere with old time pictures , candies. from the 80's). Food was good , however our chicken fried steak was over done. Friendly staff and...

One of my family's absolute favorite restaurants, love this place. Good food. Fantastic pies. Fun little shop. Typically good service, it's small so once in awhile it'll be slow and lacking but overall they typically have good service. Hit it in the spring and summer and eat in the garden is very pretty.

Today my family of 4 met for breakfast. We had lost a dear family member and needed a space to decompress and spend time together. We tried for breakfast, but where told it was too late, completely understandable. Although, we had to wait for breakfast to wrap up before the cooks would change over to lunch. We took that in stride we were really just looking for a space to enjoy each other. After eating we shopped in the gift store and were admiring the deserts. While checking out and spending $180.00, my boyfriend was rudely questioned by the owner. She was very confrontational. To the point everyone stopped and stared. He was simply admiring the deserts while we checked out. She acted as though he was loitering in the gift shop. We were so caught of guard and he was completely embarrassed. The owner finally snapped out- I just wanted to know if he wanted anything. Her employees were even surprised at how rude she was to a customer. I thought long and hard about saying anything. My family needed some quality time together this morning. We actually got up from the table with smiles on our faces. She took that away quickly. I?m have thought about it, she probably had know idea what or why we were there. I hope next time she might take pause and remind herself we all are dealing with struggles and even heartbreak. Maybe, she herself was today. She won?t ever be sorry for just being kind. We could have really used some kindness this morning.
