This place is great! I have Alpha-gal (red meat allergie) and this place has several different options I can choose from aside from just a chicken or fish sandwich. They had teriyaki chicken, Teriaky chicken stir fry, hot Turkey sandwiches and more! My Husband went with a burger which he said was really good!

Went a few days ago our server acted like we was not suppose to be there she check on our table maybe twice and the food was just bad could’ve made better at home it used to be good but they removed a dish I typically get which is the ribeye so decided to try the chopped steak asked medium well it was burned and partner got the teriyaki chicken which just tasted of vinegar only thing that was good was the potato skins used to be my favorite place now it’s disappointing.

I dont give out five stars lightly. I've never been disappointed with their food, always satisfied when I leave.

This place used to be Hardee’s I believe but they’ve converted it to a family diner and did a great job. It’s pretty cute.

It was raining when we went and I read one review that was not happy about the leak. The restaurant still had a leak in the dining room but there were plenty of other tables away from it. It didn’t stop a lot of customers from enjoying their meals there, including us.

The waitress was friendly and promptly asked us what we wanted to drink. They have Pepsi products, not my favorite but the Diet Mt. Dew was mixed good and tasted great.

Hubby ordered a double cheeseburger and I got a grilled chicken sandwich with hot honey on the side. We both got fries. I asked for lettuce and tomato and the waitress got everything right.

The double cheeseburger was really good according to my husband and was really big beef patties. My grilled chicken was tender and cooked perfectly but could’ve used a little seasoning for my taste. The buns were toasted which makes a nice touch.

The fries were chunky but not steak fries exactly. They were hot when served but nothing spectacular. I wanted the pineapple upside down cake but we were both too full.

Overall it was a good meal and comfortable setting. Friendly staff and cute surroundings. I took a lot of photos. Even the bathrooms were decorated super cute and family friendly with a changing table in the one in the left, just make sure to lock the door. The bathrooms were extremely clean and had warm water to wash hands in. Stocked well. Music played in the speaker system which is nice.

They had what looked like locally made children’s clothing for sale in a little boutique area. Just a really cute place that seems to support locals which is great.

I recommend 👍

Ever wanted to eat inside but also experience the outside? Just go when its raining. This has been a problem apparently. The floors have dry rot.
One Of the bathrooms is also out of order. The sink water is freezing cold.
I ordered the simplest breakfast. The eggs were WAY over cooked. Didn’t even finish them.
The chicken meal my boyfriend ordered looked seasoned but was flavorless.
The salad looks fancy. But not of any good lettuce.
I asked for lots of sugar with my coffee. She brings the little thing of sweetener. Not one packet of sugar. I had to walk up there and ask. Then she hands me another container. It only had a few. So I ask of she could just hand me a hand full of them and save herself a refill on the container later. I get 10 packets. Smh.
The waitress needs to listen & comprehend. Also use your eyes. You see that something didn’t get eaten. Esp the protein part… ask of something is wrong??

Gross. 0/5
Will not return.
Oh even the ice water is gross. All I drink is water and coffee. That needs a filter. But I can bet that wont get changed. They wont fox the roof or bathroom. And I heard they also no longer have cable. Smh.

Just close down.

Awesome food and atmosphere best burger I have had away from a home cookout! It was a little chilly inside. But a really neat place with old fashioned decor.
