Best out of the way place for breakfast! We were traveling through and found this gem. We plan to stop every time we are close. You feel like you are in green acres. The food is great and the camaraderie among the staff and customers is priceless!

Great food by great people. Weekly lunch specials that are unbeatable.
Traveling between Miami TX and Nocona TX, I stopped in for some lunch and was absolutely surprised with this meal! The service was great, let me get that out of the way. There are always claims of being in this magazine or winning this award on the menu - but this time it was for real! I ordered the chicken fired steak based on the acclaim of being in Texas Monthly magazine. The sides chosen were mashed potatoes and fried okra. The sweet tea was perfect and the okra was crunchy. The potatoes were made in house - not instant. The gravy was creamy and tasty, seasoned perfect. The chicken fried steak was perfect - not too thin, not too thick, tenderized perfectly, seasoned great, cut easily, wasn't stringy, the crust was crunchy, wasn't greasy. This is a winner based not on size like most think, but on taste and quality. Notice in the pic...the steak was on top of the gravy - first time for me ever experiencing this! It made cutting and eating the steak much easier. I asked the young man at the register the backstory on this and he said his grandfather always said when you got nothing to hide, don't cover it in gravy. Oh, they have home made pies. This was an absolute homerun!

Got the famous steak breaded fried chicken. Not very tasteful full of grease a bit bland. There is this server hopping around in a rush not very friendly
