“Just wanted to post a thank you and hope that it reaches the girls that were so sweet! I come into Wiggin Street regularly since it’s my favorite coffee place. My grandma picked up a coffee for me today and after she ordered the girl knew it was mine! She had heard I was having a tough day so they wrote a sweet message on my cup! Something so simple but made my day 10x better! Plus the coffee is always great and all of the employees are awesome. Emma was actually the girl who recommended what’s now my favorite coffee. Great place with great employees who go above and beyond! 10/10 recommend 😊 Update: the girl who wrote the message on my cup was Katie! ❤️”

“Bye Bye Hog Heaven. Helloooo Willy's. Went here for a late lunch 5/31/25 with some friends, their teen-age son and a grand daughter. The meat just melted in my mouth and so chewy. That's coming from a 70 yr old toothless granny. The cornbread absolutely moist and no butter needed. The portions were just right. Service great and the young man that took our order even recommended what he thought was good. I was so thrilled with the food I got me a cornbread container to go home along with the bread pudding. We will definitely be making more trips from Apple Creek OH to here.”

“Wife and I been coming to Watts for 40+ years. We have always enjoyed the service the food and the 3 owners. The present owner ( Doug) has a manager named Andy who runs the day to day operation of the restaurant. You could not find a better person for the job where you try your best to make everyone happy and still run a great business.”

“We waited months to eat here while we waited to move in to our house. We passed it regularly and had to wait for both of our kids to be with us to go. Boy was it worth the wait! The food was amazing. The margarita was so delicious I kept turning the decanter upside down to get the last drop. My husband gets heartburn very easily but the ingredients were so fresh he had no issue. All 5 of us had a different entree and everyone raved about what they ate. We tried 3 desserts to include one the ladies just created and they were all delicious! The plating was creative and the decor is fun! You have to visit this restaurant and meet the wonderful owners!”

“Amazing cuisine, super clean environment. Amazing staff.”

“This place is a hidden gem, we were down in Utica for a long weekend camping at a race track in 20 degree weather. Found this place on google and gave it a shot. It’s hard to find a good child friendly clean restaurant with amazing service and hardworking people. We went 2 nights in a row and will definitely be back when we are back down here. 5 stars all day!”

“The Groovy Grain Bowl did me right! So hearty and nourishing- absolutely 11/10 stars.”

“Love the food and people there. Great restaurant.”

“Had not been here since new ownership. The improvements I noted are extended hours and 7 days a week, more tv monitors all around the entire place, and NFL ticket. My server, Sarah was very nice and attentive to all customers. If you didn't know they have keno, pull tabs, pool and a jukebox. Highly recommend this if you like a small bar and grill in a small town with friendly people.”

“Traveling through and decided to try this small diner out. Service was amazing and food was delicious. We had Chopped Steak & mashed potatoes and butterscotch pie for dessert. Highly recommend”

“Absolutely loved the owner. Very welcoming and great selection. Will definitely be back.”

“This place is absolutely PHENOMENAL!!! We are neighbors to Young's Ice cream, & go there just about every day, yet we STILL never get tired of it! She is open on most days Mon-Sun. Open from 12 to 8. Sometimes there may be a decent sized line, & a bit of a wait, considering she's the only one running the place.. but it's totally worth it! Her foods are all reasonably priced, she has a very wide variety of selections, she will never screw up your order, & all her foods are absolutely TO DIE FOR!! There is free parking. Plenty of parking spots. However, there's only 2 picnic tables outside to eat at.. But let's be realistic.. Who's gonna want to sit at the picnic tables in the hot summer sun, to eat your ice cream any how?! Take it to your car, turn the radio on, kick on the a/c, & enjoy your food! Always make sure to remember to tip the lady! She works so hard, all on her own, & she is so dedicated!!! I'm sure any normal person could agree that tips for her are certainly well deserved!!!!!! All 5 stars from me, & my family! For sure! ??

Parking: Parking is free, & there are PLENTY of spots to park!

Kid-friendliness: She offers a special "child sized" cone for $1.40! Perfect size for a child! Not too much, but also a generous size!”

“I grab a pizza from here every time we play at East Knox Highschool. After basketball or football games and it is good! I am a pepperoni and extra cheese guy and they don't disappoint on the toppings. I really like the smaller slices to handle on the go while driving home.”

“Incredible food in a great environment with super friendly staff. We loved the buffalo chicken pizza, Chicken quesadilla, and especially the mango habanero chicken wings! The best part was the price at the end, everything is very affordable.

Kid-friendliness: The owner was very friendly and encouraged us to bring our 8 year old for karaoke night.”

“Very friendly and knowledgeable staff. They carry tons of natural products, supplements, and food.”

“Awesome Lobsters and Oysters!”

“the food and ice cream was so good! the girls working were so sweet even though they were insanely busy!”

“The live music by Confederate Rose was incredible!! They put on a great show!! There weren't too many people in the bar that night though. It was a shame that more people weren't there to listen to some great music. Maybe some advertising by the bar management about live events they book might help?”
