Excellent soup excellent homemade cookies fantastic breakfast. All food tastes just like home. We were there for breakfast and dinner on two different occasions with wonderful service each time. The evening meal selections are wonderful with homemade soups and very good food. I strongly recommend this place. Don't be put off by the location.

❤️ Love this place! Waitresses are so sweet and treat your like family. Service is really quick so if your in a hurry it's the place to go. Food is always great and plenty of it for the price, had to ask for a togo box!

This is a great place for early morning breakfast. I have had lunch here too and it was great. The service is outstanding. It is a neatly decorated restaurant with an equestrian and 70's feel to it. The restaurant is kept very clean. Your food will come out quickly and as it was ordered. The location is easy to find using Google Maps and there is plenty of free parking all around the building.

Stopped on our road trip from St Louis to Bowling Green. We had the BLT club and the macaroni with beef casserole. Fries, onion rings, and coleslaw for sides. Food was delicious! Excellent value for the price. Service was fast and friendly. Definitely worth the stop! Highly recommend.

Over the years, we made so many memories there. When my grandma passed away three years ago, I found myself thinking of that place often — how special it was to us both.

Her loyalty to that little d
