Excellent food reasonably priced. The iced tea was freshly brewed and the best I ever had at a restaurant. I had a BLT sandwich that was delicious. Service was friendly and efficient. The place was spotless from the dining rooms to the rest rooms. If I was a local I would eat there regularly.

Very busy at 10:30 am so returned at noon. Food was really good. Stuffed Hash brown comes with two eggs and toast. Potatoes were super good and everything it was stuffed with tasted very fresh. This was a surpringly good breakfast. The flavor was on point! The bread is home made and tasted like it. Our Granddaughter loved the grilled chicken sandwich. It was a huge piece of chicken breast and it was hot and juicy. I tasted it and found it super tender. Served with Home-made Chips and a creamy onion dip. Coffee was a medium roast with mild flavor. Service was excellent, attentive and friendly. Highly recommend this place. Meal with coffee and two sodas came to $42.40 without tip. Good serving size and good value. We will be returning.
