Next time I’m in the area, I’m going back. Hole in the wall place with great food (loved the chili). Cash only, but there are ATMs near by - don’t let the stop you. It’s worth the extra work. It’s a future Triple D location for sure (and I have been to a ton).

The only thing good was the Bloody Mary the bacon was undercooked and the eggs and fried potatoes had no flavor at all and the bottom of my plate had a puddle of grease on the bottom

This place was all about good food and feelings. Nothing fancy, just good! Very friendly and welcoming, too.

I like this place because it isn't uniform and pristine. The food is delicious and always feels different, even when I order the same thing every time.

Angela Lentz

Very rude and poor service. Didn't even ask us if we liked the food never once asked us how things are or if we wanted another soda. Was incredibly rude was asking about things on the menu and he'd rudely say "whatever is on the menu" he was very rude.

Dinner atmosphere is is quaint and homey, but much more to it. They have every thing from milkshakes, burgers and pie to ribeyes, beer, and bloody marys, and the food is decent.
