This is our favorite place in town. A wonderful family place that has become our family. Great food great prices (remember their grocery costs have gone up like ours, and are in line with every smaller place). Their family is wonderful -salt of the earth people. They care for veterans and the community alike. They will cook your food however you want it. They had a long time customer pass away, and closed early one day to have a memorial service for him.Don’t miss the chance to eat here?I should revise my cost estimate. There are plenty of items < $10 We usually spend a bit more than that.

We would give this place 6 stars but they don’t have six. We go every Friday and the service is wonderful, staff is friendly, food great. The owner also does many community minded events and is a great asset.

Do not eat at this place. I was there and left a personal item. I called to tell them I would pick it up. They said they had it and to pick it up the next day. When I went to get it , no one knew anything about it. I'm sure one of them has my property. These people are EVIL . Linda

Years ago my husband and I used to eat at the 3 B’s whenever we would come across one they made the best homemade tomato soup you could even buy by the quart and grilled cheese and bacon sandwich, the best home comfort food I have had the pleasure of enjoying, reading the menu I don’t see the homemade tomato soup , hope this has not gone off of the menu , they said that’s what they used to feed the lumber jacks and workers . Great memories , hope they still serve !!

Although this is classified as a breakfast place, we went there for lunch shortly after midday.The entrance is through a separate part of the building, and there were tables there with clothing for sale (2nd hand,maybe?). It smelled like a second hand store, not what you need when going into a restaurant.Once past that, the restaurant itself was fine, and the food came quickly and was good quality.

Such a cute place with the friendliest people. The food is really good too and the coffee is perfect. Skillet was huge with lots of cheese. Biscuits and gravy were so yummy.

Food was not bad and server was friendly, However pricing was off the charts, Ala Cart pricing for every item including almost $4.00 for a glass of coke. Basic breakfast ended up at a $23.00 bill with small tip. Ouch. Will not go back
