★★☆☆☆ 2.0 Angela Miller · Jan 2026

When you walk in you notice piles and piles of receipts behind the counter just piled there . The floor is so sticky I had to wash my shoes when I went home. The server was really nice and outgoing. The baked potato was good. The rolls tasted terrible almost sour. I thought it was just me but other people in my party also mentioned it. The corn was good but the gravy and pork chops tasted funny. I didn't eat any of mine but others in my party did eat the pork chop but not the gravy. I'm glad I tried it once but I won't be going back

★★★☆☆ 3.0 Jason n Sonya F · Oct 2025

The food tasted good. The service was great. I will say though we paid 2.00 for extra hasbrowns in place of toast. And what came out was barely a single serving. It came on a small plate and barely had more than a single layer of hashrown shreds. If it was a single serving it would have made sense. But to pay more for literally nothing more. That was a disappointment on top of chincy disappointment. As a first time experience I doubt I would go again. The service was great, our waitress was nice and accommodating. She even looked to see if their fries had gluten which they did and I am very grateful she cared to check for me. A lot of tables were dirty but it was right after a standard breakfast rush time so no biggie there. There were tables to sit at. And the wood interior is cute.

★★★★★ 5.0 Carlile Pond · Jan 2026

Stopped in here today for a late lunch with one of my Supt’s. The food was excellent. Our waitress was on point and joked back and forth with us. Big plus for me because I like going that. Great place to stop, grab a bite to eat and unwind!!

★★★★☆ 4.0 Jeanne Hodges · Feb 2026

Best hamburger around the area Fried Pork chops were great and portion large We have always loved their breakfast options but I truly enjoy my veggie omelet on meatless Monday! Waitresses are friendly and professional always anticipating my wants as I became a regular

★★★☆☆ 3.0 Lori Gaskill · Aug 2025

The restaurant was hot and humid. Our server was tentative but not very friendly and walked away when I was trying to ask him a question. The female servers were sweet and checked on us often to fill coffee
