We stopped in here on vacation wanting food that isn't fast food. They had good reviews so we went. The fried chicken was fantastic! So hot and crispy! I can see why it would be a local favorite.

Great place to stop on my trip! One thing to know is when they say they'll be open, they are. Other places close early but they don't. My beer was inexpensive, my wings were great, the service excellent. I'll gladly stop by the next time I'm in town.

The hot beef open faced sandwich was awesome. It tastes exactly like homemade- from fresh roast and pan sauce gravy. Mashed potatoes are real -not from a box. Our waitress was friendly and really helpful. Highly recommend.

This is my kind o f place. We ate here twice while camping at Prairie Rose State Park. Food and service was great! I had a cowboy burger ( onion rings, BBQ sauce and cheese on a pretzel bun) my hubby had a patty melt. Both were delicious. Saturday we wanted to have a snack and got the stadium pretzel. Omg it was huge & delicious. The bartenders were awesome too. We took a snicker pie to go.AMAZING

Tried this place for the first time yesterday and we will for sure be back! My boyfriend enjoyed his chicken fried steak with cheese balls and mac and I had a smash burger w/ everything and fries. Of course we both tried a piece of cake too. The Milky Way (my choice) was just as great as the meal and my bf enjoyed the cheesecake! Not a bad bite to be had
