Travelers beware! We thought to give it a try because the previous reviews show some good appealing food but we ordered a enchilada plate they had no rice and beans. They offered to substitute for mac&cheese and onion rings but small portions because the onion rings were cold and soggy. Ordered a milkshake and they ran out of ice cream. Chips and No salsa. And sadly the green chile sauce was not even on the enchilada plate...so I asked for extra on the side and it was watery. Waitresses is nice and not their fault. But we left displeased.

Not to great. Got my order wrong not worth going back to get it fixed. They didn't seem to happy last thing I would want is someone spitting in my food. Taco Bell's across the street and McDonald's a block down they would be a better option in my opinion. Good luck travelers.

Was on a roadtrip to this town and stopped for lunch and the food was not whatbwas expected. Had chicken fried steak and the size was small and the meat was tough. Also had fried catfish and that was not cornmeal hand breaded and the mashed potatoes were box mix.

Was there for an hour. When we got our chicken fried steak it was under cooked so they made another one it was rare. We did have the orka and cornbread it was the best. I feel that once the Cafe gets more help it would be great.

We Used 2 dine here about 3 times a week. 1 of our Favorite places 2 eat. Used to be 5 Stars + but Not Anymore, it's always CLOSED & the Last time we got food there, it was GROSS!!! We're trying 2 Support Our Local Businesses, to keep them Afloat but why? My Daughter used 2 work there & it was Great, Now, Not so Much. Went last night, just out of Curiosity & the cashier in the gas station portion said it was open for 20 more minutes. Went in & saw the server & I said I'm glad ya'll are open. She replies with, "Oh We Just Closed!" Really U got 20 more minutes 2 make another Dollar & we Get Sent Packing!!!! Great, Never, Ever AGAIN. BIG MISTAKE
