It's kind of off the beaten path. It is worth it, though. The atmosphere is like going back in time to the old diner. Food was very good and service was almost like you were an old friend. Breakfast was good and on Sundays they have turkey and dressing which is very good. Their pie is fabulous

Love eating here food is always delicious. The only reason why we don’t go there very often is because the cashier at the front I believe her name is Sylvia is very rude and just makes you not want to return because of her attitude. She’s got a ugly attitude, but the food and the waitresses are amazing there. They just need to get rid of that cashier, but the day we went in the owner was the cashier and it was so nice having somebody that was nice to help you instead of somebody that’s snobby and not very nice to people.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ for great food, service and nostalgia. The ham steak lunch is sooo good, with a pineapple ring on top, dinner rolls are heaven, sides were classic, and desserts are lovely. Got a side of ambrosia salad, hadn’t had that since church luncheons in the 80’s, what a fun taste of childhood! Honestly, everything I’ve ever had there has been delicious and really taken me back in time. I always leave incredibly full and happy. And the people are always incredibly nice. Going there is like a hug. I hope they never, ever change!
