“Hole in the wall, friendly staff and customers, fantastic food. We were just passing through, but I wish they were near where we live. Will eat there anytime we're up that way. We had pancakes, eggs and bacon. The only place that has ever cooked bacon the way I asked. Pancakes were huge and delicious, and my poached egg was perfect“

“Thompson Town Corner Deli has some of the best home cooked food you will ever find!! They take cash only which is okay although I do wish they would take a card because a lot of people don't carry cash anymore. But once you've had their food you will not care either way you will bring cash! They have ice cream also and chocolate malts that taste like they were made back in the day!! They always have fresh desserts fresh pies and their vegetable beef soup is amazing!! I also love their homemade barbecue. I usually get my food to go because it's a small place with an old school bar like an old Diner from the 50s which is very cute and there are tables you can sit at as well and it's comfortable and quiet and cozy.“

“I am an import to this area, and I grew up surrounded the best Italian food options including my nonnas’ home cooking. JoJo’s makes me feel like home! From the food to owners, hands down best authentic Italian eatery in the area. Molto Bene!Vegetarian options: Veggie and Mushroom sub options. Mushrooms sub is delizioso.“

“We stopped in on a Sunday early evening for live music and had a couple drinks, no food. The building is historic which makes this a really cool spot. There was a banquet room and bar on the second floor with a wraparound balcony that was accessible. The upstairs was closed for service at the time we visited. The atmosphere was casual and relaxed. The bartender was personable and attentive. They did just also open a coffee shop with limited hours and I will be back to check that out. Nice stop for beverage or quick bite to eat if you are hiking Hawk Rock or the AT and a place to sleep if you need.“

“Stopped by on Sunday afternoon. Hubby had the wings(Cajun)and a side salad. I opted for the cheeseburger which hands down was homemade and the best burger I have had out in a long time. Cooked to perfection. We shared some onion rings. They were darn good. Shared a piece of coconut cream pie. The BEST!!! Our server was Betty A seasoned pro.So glad we stopped in. We will definitely go back and enjoy the entire river area.“
