Customer Reviews
Wonderful small-town goodness!! Stopped here while traveling. So glad! Service was quick, sweet and accurate, even though they were packed at 12:30 on Sunday. Food is delicious. The tenderloin was perfect, fries were golden. Hubby had the tasty turkey club. and enjoyed it. No room for pie 🥹 maybe next time. We will be back!!
Yes. You should you get off I80 and go out of your way to come here. Clean, friendly, homemade right down to their hot sauces and on site roasted coffee. My omelet was an epiphany on a plate. This road warrior rates this as a must visit.
Loved the food so much. I had a mushroom and Swiss and I felt it was better than Culver's. My companion had a homemade tenderloin that she couldn't eat the rest of. I had a strawberry shortcake for dessert and it was warm served with whipped cream topping. We will definitely come back.
A local dining treasure at the west end of Grinnel, on the north side of US 6. We had breakfast (served until 11 am). The facility has a combination of booths and tables with some fascinating Grinnel and restaurant history adorning the walls. We sat in a booth with a summer photo of what appeared to be the restaurant family's family reunion, spanning 3 generations with over 100 people in the photo, as one example. AMAZING!
Our breakfast was great! Service was quick. We will definitely be back. My husband had the tenderloin skillet and it was out of this world. I had cinnamon roll french toast. Also awesome. Our 3 year old loved his pancake. Mom stole a bite and it was definitely fluffy. We will 100% be back.
