The food was very plain. Not seasoned. The fried chicken and gravy tasted like the stuff you get premade from the freezer section at the grocery store. The onion rings had no taste. Couldn’t even taste the onion. I will never go back there.

Old school breakfast and lunch place. Just a small hole in the wall roadside diner with whimsy. Patrons talk amongst themselves over who they are related to and plans for the day. My 2 eggs and 3 large strips of bacon were cooked just right. Coffee is delicious. Waitress and kitchen staff are easy to laugh and friendly. They take cash and card. Open at 5 a.m. for breakfast and close at 2 p.m. after the lunch rush. And as the sign says, don't hit the bench.

The food was amazing! Our server didnt really check in once our food arrived. It's definitely a very old building, but it was clean. Can't beat the food or prices.

If you don't really like something you didn't get the gravy! Over medium biscuits and gravy sausage patties! Don't leave a review if you haven't tried that! If you feel unwelcome here that's your hang up, always peaceful and fast breakfast.

Local down home goodness.Everyone is hometown at this little “whole in a wall” small sort of neighborhood joint, hence you will be “noticed” - it’s just the southern way. Give it a try! You can’t beat the prices or the service. The food is good! The breakfast plate is very economical and deliciously flavorable . The hash brown casserole is an appetizing add on.Breakfast at lunch is always one of our favorites on lunch break.(Breakfast all day - close @2)
