Had a great hamburger. The meat juices mixed with the mayo created a decadent and delicious sauce. Chips are served rather than fries. The atmosphere is nice, the outside of the building doesn’t tell the story but inside it’s really great. They have a bakery featuring bread, scones, and massive cinnamon rolls. I also got a chai latte which was delicious. You can build your own deli sandwich and they also offered gluten-free bread.

The peach pie was delicious, and raspberry coffee cake was super fresh. Recommend this place. We want to stop by on our way home for lunch.?

On my first visit I ordered the Italian sandwich and a cup of beef barley soup. The sandwich was so small I was surprised and the bread was a store bought roll. My wife ordered a half sandwich and it was so small it was about 3 bites. Both totally overpriced for what we got. Really not much to say about it except very plain and boring. The soup was very tasteless and didn't seem fresh like maybe it was yesterday's soup. The restaurant itself was super clean and nicely decorated.

Coffee was awesome, biscuits and gravy was really good too. Scones were great. What an awesome gem to find on the way back from Pullman.

Such a fun place! Bring your family for breakfast lunch brunch or anything in between. Find all the animals in their beautifully painted forest scene. One of their cinnamon rolls will feed a family of four! My favorite drink is their dirty chai. They have their own house blend of coffee, so even the drip is amazing!

It's clean. The portions are reasonably sized.Sadly the cinnamon rolls....ick. Also the cookies. They taste like shortening is used. When I ordered a cinnamon roll to go, it was put in a styrofoam container, THEN microwaved. The styrofoam was hot, and half the roll was dry. I don't care for the hot plastic smell or the taste of shortening frosting. I was very disappointed.

Such a gem! Everything was fresh and homemade, excellent service and atmosphere and the cinnamon roll was divine! The food was made to order and came out as it was ready! Would highly recommend stopping here when passing through!

The special was a bbq beef sandwich - my friend really enjoyed hers. I got a create your own sandwich on freshly baked bread that was great. Ample parking, friendly staff, very quick service, cute decor. Although everything was tasty, my friend and I enjoyed our baked scones and coffee the most! Great for a quick road stop snack while we continued on our way.

Expect all the bread products you order made by these friendly, gentle folks, and your breakfast to be just right to start your day. We had a long drive pulling a trailer, so we did not order a lot, but what we did order was pretty filling. My breakfast sandwich was hearty, with generous slices of pit ham and delicious sharp cheddar cheese. We love camping in this area, so it is no doubt we will be coming back to try their lunches...

You should have seen my guy's happy face when we walked in here, and he saw the family running the place in Mennonite dress. If you haven't dined at a place where these gentle folk own you will be in for a treat. Everything is farm fresh, and you will never find any bread products they didn't make. We had a bit of a drive to get home pulling a trailer, so we kind of took it easy this time. But that didn't mean our meals weren't filling. His breakfast sandwich had nice thick cuts of pit ham, and after a few splashes of tabasco he was in his happy place. I'm a biscuits and gravy girl, and their gravy was great, and the biscuits were so light with a nice sweetness to them. And I ordered a huckleberry scone that wound up in a box to take home because we were full. It made a delicious nosh for me this morning!
