I've been wanting to try this cute little country cafe for a while now. So glad I finally had the chance! It is small and cozy, seats about 30 people. The staff were inviting and super friendly! I ordered the basic french toast and eggs and my eggs were cooked to perfection and I'm super picky about how they are cooked :) The homemade salsa was delicious and had the perfect kick to it. I will definitley be stopping by again to try the biscuits and gravy everyone has been raving about!

The best staple around. The gravy is so good whether it’s on the biscuits and gravy and the chicken fried steak. Small but everything tastes wonderful.

Been going here for 40 years now. The inside has changed a little bit to accommodate more customers, they added an outdoor seating area a while back as well. Food just as good today as it was the first time I ate here. Exception food and friendly service..gotta love it!!! Pictured is the BLT combo.
