“The Shrimp and Noodles are wonderful!”

“Recommended by a friend, I stopped in while driving back to Joplin. I chose a ham sandwich and they asked if it was okay if the fresh ham was still warm? Still warm?! Yes! Just wheat bread cheese lettuce and ham. I don't eat pie and there was fresh peach pie or cobbler? on the counter. I bought that too. The ham sandwich did not require condiments. I would have had just a plate of ham if I had known how good it was. I also ate the pie. It was so GOOD!”

My wife and I went today and let me tell you the food was amazing but the hospitality was the way all places should be. You feel so welcomed by the sweetest person I have ever met.

“Best biscuits n gravy n town”

“We love it here! So much so we had our wedding reception here! Kid friendly too. Our granddaughter loves coming to play pool and the parades on main st. Never dull. Where everyone knows everyone...and if we don't know you we soon will. So many memorabilia hanging around from record albums, photos, route 66 stuff, Gravy's favorite longhorn bull, just tons to look at and figure out. And don't miss out on Sunday Chiefs games when we have big pot lucks. The music is great whether he shuts down 4th St for Torn or opens up Possum holler during concerts/parties. Just a fun, friendly experience.”
