Good food & good prices. Always been real good food. Great service
I ordered the mushroom and Swiss hamburger and it was cooked to perfection and served to me super fast! The waitress was a delight and I have to say it was the best mushroom and Swiss burger I have ever eaten
We are giving a 5 star review for several reasons. Food is great well prepared and the staff is awesome family owned business. Food, always tasty, prices very reasonable! We enjoy this dinner weekly we love the Ma and Pa vibes! We crave the chicken fried steak and the French dip and BLT and omelettes and ice tea and hash browns!!!! And yummy French toast and pancakes and buttery toast. Did I mention they have pie? 🤤🥰
Great double bacon cheeseburger. Can get pancakes for lunch. Great place. Great staff.
If your looking for good homestyle cooking this is the place. Lots of choices. Friendly staff and quiet atmosphere.
Friendly! The Papa Kerns family make their customers feel like family. Delicious home cooked meals and generous helpings. Our favorite place !!
Our server was nice and helpful. The cook was new so the food was not very good. Undercooked appetizers and my burger was overcooked. If the restaurant gets the cook staff figured out, I believe this would be a good place to visit.
The food is amazing!!!! We had a hamburger, fries, & salad. One of the better hamburgers that we've had in a long time!! Thank you!!!!!!
Main issue was we had a waitress in training and she messed up the order and place was crowded and food was slow to come out. Place has some good specials like $7.99 - senior eggs/hashbrowns/bacon/toast/coffee. Once food arrived, it was okay. But overall issues with getting correct order in and time for food to come out. It may have been just a busy day there.
Their food is good. Hot off the stove/grill. And the service is great. I recommend this place if your looking for a family type meal.
