How do you describe a meal that sets you up for a week. Amazing breakfast, great service, and tasty food!!!

Big portions, good "stick to your ribs" food. The chicken steak with gravy is a house specialty, a huge portion.

If you want more food than anyone but a giant could eat, served in a down-home atmosphere then this should be your choice. Locals love it here, so it will be packed, but the food is so darned good, and so reasonably priced that it's worth it. It's a family owned and run restaurant and if there is one thing... More

They also have a... More
