Home Style Food, Home Style Atmaspere, Home Style Memories. In our quest to avoid the corporate fast food chain restaurants and find real down-to-earth GOOD family-run food purveyors, we were told about a little place across from the train station in Old Town Van Buren.

Love the loaded potato gnocchi soup! The salad bar is always fresh and has a good selection of toppings to make a great salad! Tried the yogurt parfait bar and I’m hooked!

I'm currently fostering a days-old kitten, which means I have very little time and even sleep even less. The Hive's salad bar is SO good; their bagels and baked potatoes are perfect. I'm so grateful to be able to get fresh vegetables without needing to plan ahead. Thank you for being on delivery apps.

I’m not usually a fan of soup- but I LOVE their potato gnocchi…
