I like having breakfast here. The food is good. The service is great. Today, I ordered the three eggs omelet with baked ham, green peppers, onions, tomato, and mushrooms with grits and toast. I ate the grits before I thought to take the picture. They were delicious.

Warm food, quick service, friendly ladies. What's not to love? I see why this restaurant has been running for 60 years!I ordered the vegetable omelet with a side of potatoes and biscuits. The meal came out fresh! My husband had steak and it was also great.

It was a nice small town country diner that's been in town longer than I have been alive. Servings were good, and it was exactly what you want for a hearty, southern breakfast.
