Place is closed down/abandoned and for sale. Don’t think your gonna get some breakfast before going to Stephen Foster Park like we did.

I was staying at Stephen Foster State Park and wanted a late afternoon lunch. The buffet wasn't available (good luck for me) so I asked the waitress what she liked best on the menu & it was the hamburger. It was the same recipe that original owner/chef "Jill" used (when prior name at this location was "Swannee River Cafe"). This was the BEST hamburger I've had in 20 years ! It reminded me of the hamburgers I had in my childhood before the "fast food" brands existed. When I told the waitress my reaction, she passed it along & the current chef/owner came out of the kitchen & thanked me for that compliment & thanked me for "stopping in". He also suggested that I someday try his fried chicken, which he thought was "on par" with the hamburger...and I certainly will, whenever I get back to Fargo. The cafe's new name, I think, is "Jack & Jill's" but same location as the former "Swannee River Cafe"

Only restaurant in town - now known as JillBilly's. Very friendly proprietors / staff. Closed on Mondays. Good food, but limited menu. GREAT hot fresh fried okra.

Had a great double cheeseburger. My wife had the grilled cheese. We have french fries and corn fritters side. All very good. The waitress / owner was super friendly and very informative about the area. I would recommend this to anyone. Plan on going back tomorrow for their lunch buffet from 11 to 1. They also display folk art from a local artist. And it's all for sale at very reasonable prices. How's the traffic

One of the best little home town cafes I have ever been to. Very friendly staff! Patrons are also very friendly, be ready for great conversation when you get there.**Update**New owners! Still friendly however they don't have a breakfast buffet anymore and sometimes open later in the morning. Still good food and atmosphere!

OMG, this place is a hidden gem. This is actually a house. Knock loudly on the screen door before entering to wake up the waitress..
Don't waste your time or money! Go next door and get a can of Vienna sausage you will be happy you did.

Every time we come to the state park, we come here morning and evening for food. I liked everything they had to offer so far and have no complaints. It's the only restaurant in town I believe, besides, what camping now and don't expect this place to be an upscale restaurant. It's good food and good people. My family and I will come eat here every time we come to the swamp.
