I love this place. The food was excellent with an affordable price too. I had one time got the wrong order and they make the new one right away. I really appreciated their hard work for the food and costumer service. Everything was excellent. I brought my cousins there and they loved it.

On August 20th my buddy and I were visiting Boone and this was a local recommendation. Unknowingly we walked in this quaint, roughly 30 seat diner 5 minutes before they closed. When we realized, we said we’d leave and not trouble them, however the owner and our server Sherri insisted we stay, as everyone else finished and left before 2:00pm. We both had cheeseburgers with everything and fries. The burger had a perfect, juicy cook, dressed with all the fixins’. The fries are a midway between a standard fry and a shoestring-crisp, salted perfectly. To top off the visit, Sherri sang Freddy Fender’s Wasted Days and Wasted Nights, and we felt like we were in a family member’s kitchen, not a joint we walked into 5 minutes before closing.
The next day on the 21st I brought my wife and sister-in-law back from Grimes and they had cheeseburgers and I had to try the tenderloin. Hands down the best seasoned and perfectly breaded one I’ve ever had. They hand pound and bread the loin to really, perfection.
While I was marveling and mouth watering over the menu, Sherri brought me a sample of their homemade gravy with roast beef, then returned with a sample of their scratch mashed potatoes.
If you have a sweet tooth, they have a variety of pies made by a sweet elderly lady who uses real lard in her pie crusts. We split a peach pie that was divine, for real. I am in my 50’s and it took me straight back to my grandmother’s kitchen as a boy.
This place is full of sincere good ol’ small town hospitality and the very best in eats. Good luck deciding when you see the menu.

Nice little café with a lot of nostalgia when you walk into it, it feels like the kind of place you could spend your morning at drinking coffee catching up with a friend or reading the paper. The staff is super nice and the service is good I’ve enjoyed all the food that I’ve had there so far and would definitely recommend for anyone passing through. Their half pound cinnamon roll is amazing and will fill you right up.
