Me and my mom came to eat here on a whim one morning while our furniture shopping. Everything we had to eat was 10/10! I got the cornbread omelet with goat cheese tomato gravy on the side. I’ve never had anything like it such an awesome savory dish. The flavors went so well together. My mom got the Jack Benny and it was one of the best eggs Benedict we’ve ever had. We also got the French toast to share to have something sweet! It was so good it was also different from other French toast I’ve tried. It was almost like a fried donut in the best way possible. Definitely plan to go Back.

Great modern diner located inside the Lodge cast iron museum and store. The menu offers plenty of choices, and everything we tried was delicious. We loved the fresh-squeezed juice options as well as the espresso drinks—exactly what we look for at breakfast. Service was quick and efficient, making it an easy and enjoyable stop.

I don’t know whose grandma is back there making these meals but she is doing a hell of a job! The meals were incredible! The wife had a biscuit with gravy, over easy eggs and bacon! I had the biscuits & gravy breakfast An my son had flapjacks, scrambled eggs and bacon! Thanks to “Teagan” our waitress, I was introduced to more than one type of gravy! The tomato gravy & the Red Eye gravy! Both delicious! Service was phenomenal! Atmosphere was very laid back. Country music filled the room at just the right volume. All the waitresses were so sweet! There southern accent made you feel like family! All I seen was big smiles and pearly white teeth! Definitely an awesome breakfast spot to hit up if you’re ever in the south Pittsburg area of Tennessee!

Such an incredible experience. What a hidden gem. My valentine and I had a fabulous breakfast. My husband had the flapjacks and orange juice. Every tiny detail was intentional and fantastic. The butter. The fresh squeezed orange juice. I got a skillet. It was also chefs kiss. Even the cream for the coffee came in the sweetest little pitcher.

Wow! Best shrimp and grits I have ever had. Also the first time in forever that I didn’t salt my food. Impeccable service and beautifully decorated space.
