★★★★★ 5.0 Tom Fletcher · May 2025

New management this year! And a wonderful improvement! We had eaten here earlier and we were pleasantly surprised by how much better everything was. The food was very good, the service was great and the manager was a great addition to the experience. I had a Chef’s Salad. The mixed greens were fresh and crispy. The turkey, cheese, tomatoes and bacon were all tasty. My wife had a hamburger with fried potatoes. They were delicious and cooked just right. We came in a little too late for breakfast, which ended at 10:45. It would be nice if that were an option through lunch. I’m glad we gave it a second chance. We’ll be going back, and I highly recommend that you give it a try! You won’t regret it!

Fantastic place to stop for breakfast, whether you’re in the area or just passing through! The portions are generous, the food is fresh and delicious, and the service makes you feel right at home. Warm, welcoming, and worth the stop!

The waitress was mean to me. I can’t wait to go back! Good service with an even better sense of humor. Felt very at home and food was great. One of the better pancakes I’ve had.

I had a great lunch. Cheese burger all the way with no bun and Brussel sprouts. The waitress was great as well.

A great little country diner! I stop in often for breakfast and always greeted with a smile and a good morning. The food is always good and prompt..the waitresses are friendly (and if i might say easy on the eyes). If ykyk. And the prices are more than reasonable. If you are local im sure you already know this but if you are just passing through stop in and give them a try ...you want be disappointed.
