Waited over an hour and left with out eating.
Came in with my family and sat for over an hour just for food to arrive because our ticket was lost, once food was brought to table went ahead and placed pie order just to come back 15 min later to say they were out of all the pies we had chose as well. Wasted hour and a half trip to eat. Still not sure it wasn’t because my family was Hispanic.
Just finished having lunch there with my wife. The baked ham lunch plate was a perfect sized portion and the ham was juicy and delicious! The green beans and carrots were perfectly cooked and the red bliss potatoes were so tender. My wife’s ham and cheese sandwich was griddled to a beautiful golden brown.
We both got a slice of pie to finish off our meal (lemon meringue for her, bumbleberry for me). Both pies were outstanding!
We can’t wait to come back again!
