Great place if you want an alternative to the clinical chain stores, that offers some healthy local farm products. Lots of stuff for the kids to do while you wait on breakfast or lunch.

One ugly book containing an amazing story
I don't know the story of origin or ownership, but here's what I see; what I imagine...
Alongside the road lies an old building that has withstood the test of time, proudly displaying its battle scars. The saying "don't judge a book by its cover" comes to mind. Well, I didn't... sorta.
By sheer chance, I pulled in, realizing I was about to lose my friend behind me. At 60mph, I whipped in, hitting the brakes and kicking up rocks and dust as I skated through the empty parking lot to a stop. A cloud of white particles caught up as I stepped out to signal my fast-approaching friend, who hit the brakes with a 24-foot cargo trailer behind an F350 Power Stroke Super. It goes, but doesn't like to stop. I watched as his brakes smoked; he whizzed past me, waved, and then turned around to wait for him to come back.
I'm staring at this place, "hmm, dusty..." and it dawns on me, "there's a door, with lights on inside. Nice." I awaited my friend, who eventually returned, stepping out to voice his disapproval, raising a finger of frustration. "Tay-" he starts.
"Yeah yeah, you need new brakes, idc, let's check this place out," I say as I turn and walk inside.
**First impressions—shock.** Mild, but shock. Firstly, this place is like Mary Poppins' bag. It just goes on forever. I look around and notice more and more but finally see what I'm looking for—drinks. I need something to drink, so I start walking towards the coffee and off to my left—I see a kitchen. Unexpected. I didn't think this place would have enough business to support that 60 seconds ago. I didn't even know it existed as a business. I turn and look behind the counter and see something equally unexpected—this big guy. The type that makes you think, "Nah, I'll pass." Not unfriendly, quite the opposite. Every man who's been punched in the face knows you don't mess with certain people. One look at this guy, and I know I don't want to get punched by him.
I order a sausage, egg, and cheese, one for my friend, and grab my coffee. While waiting, I walk around, more and more surprised to the point a smile is slowly developing on my face with how much effort and homey touch has gone into this place. Antique's, giant blocks for kids, places to sit and hang out—everything you could imagine for entertainment at a nice bar is here. I notice there's about 600 photos on the wall, each with what I assume are customers and the owner, who is also the big guy behind the counter making my sandwich.
It looked like he had a picture with every single customer, and it was the coolest thing I've seen in a while. I walked back to check on the food and saw him putting the sandwich together with delicacy and care. My whole experience, from humbling start to humbling finish, was pure passion.
It seems to me this man, wherever he came from, probably had a tough life and is a total unit. The kind of guy you don't want to mess with. But he left whatever he was doing to open this dream.
And like any dream, this time tested book was full of unexpected wonder presented in the most welcoming, simplistic way by a man who makes the best damn SEC sandwich I've ever fking had. Thanks bro.

Always a positive experience from the time I walk in the door 'til I exit the premises! My last name isn't Passmore but they treat me and every other customer as if we were. If you've never been there then stop in and I'm sure your experience will be positive as well! Try a grit ?!! ?? My favorite! I get a breakfast plate in a cup, basically!? Grits, eggs, sausage, bacon on the run!!

Just meeting him today you can tell Chris, who runs Passmore's, is a great guy. Kind, friendly and humble sum him up! The breakfast is good. Go get something warm to eat and soak up some of how York County is at its best.
