food is amazing, cant beat the price. 2 thumbs up

I had their root beer while in high school in 1955. Now I come twice a year from Carmi, Illinois to enjoy all of their goodies; always bring pints of the sauce home with me. So many great memories. Thanks for still being a part of my 88 year old life!!! God bless.
