Classic diner food, served in an older style of restaurant.
Came here in search of biscuits and sausage gravy.
I got the spinach, mushroom and cheese omelet, served with home fries and a side of TWO biscuits and gravy. I thought the omelet was well done, not over cooked, and seasoned just enough.
My companion got a chicken fried steak with two eggs over easy, hash browns and also TWO more biscuits and gravy. The steak was a tad dry though.
Our toddler got the macaroni & Cheese dish - it was soooo cheesy!
We came in so late for lunch that we ended up being the only ones left by the time we ended our meal.
Friendly Waitress Cheri check in on us a few times.
We let her know it was our first time coming in. You get a free GIANT cookie with that visit. (we got one chocolate chip with nuts and one oatmeal raisin). They are bigger than a toddler's face - no lie.
Right next door is a long term stay motel - i would imagine the patrons from the hotel would be using the cafe a lot!

Our #1 place!!
Tammy, Elaine and all the other food servers are awesome!!!
I do eat here like once a week because they are the next best thing to a home cooked meal in my own kitchen.
Food is always fresh and delicious!! Prices are reasonable and fair considering everything has gone up.
BBQ chicken salad, dinner salad (those croutons and blue cheese… yum!), meatloaf, salmon dinner, deli omelette, chicken strips, garlic cheese toast, and those grits!!! The menu has alot to choose from!

Dropped by because I saw on their website menu they sell carrot cake. Very large portion. Not terrible however I didn’t feel welcomed nor picked up a welcoming atmosphere when I walked in. The area itself is pretty uppity and there aren’t many black people so it’s understandable they’re not used to black customers but that doesn’t make my money any less important, it could also just be they mostly focus on an older demographic all in all the carrot cake wasn’t bad

The waitress working nights is always incredibly rude and seems annoyed by customers from the moment we sit down. There is no greeting or welcome—just a blunt, "Ready to order?" Throughout the meal, she rolled her eyes, appeared irritated, and made us feel like we were inconveniencing her.
Unfortunately, the food wasn't much better. The clam chowder was gritty and sandy, the omelets had an oddly sweet flavor, and the potatoes were greasy. Overall, the quality was inconsistent and disappointing.
The entire atmosphere felt unwelcoming. Staff appeared miserable, and customer service seemed to be an afterthought. There's even a sign that says, "Beware of the attack waitress," which should have been a warning.
Save your money and spend it somewhere that values its customers and provides friendly service.
We will never come back here.
