It's mostly farm folks and locals that come here. I got a biscuits & gravy omelette. You heard that right, it's an omelette with the biscuits inside and smothered with gravy. It's a neat concept except the gravy isn't homemade and could use a little sausage flavor. It was just bland. Other than that, it's a really neat concept. You get plenty of food for your money, and you pay at the counter or the waitress can take it, but in this day she was pretty busy so we took it to the counter. All in all, not bad. I'll try em again on a day that isn't 3 feet from the sun!

Nice and clean interior as well. Thank you!

Family friendly, good service, and the usual kitsch decorations. I ordered their Cinnamon Roll Pancake. I asked the waitress how large they were - they were LARGE, so I only ordered one. Good call. My wife had their veggie omelet, which came with tomato, onion, green pepper and mushrooms. It came with hash browns and toast. I ordered a side of sausage patties. The sausage patty was large too - it looked like a hamburger (but obviously wasn't). The Cinnamon Roll Pancake was exactly as described - the waitress offered to bring out maple syrup, but said most people didn't use it so I passed on that (and didn't need it). My wife enjoyed her omelet. I had a root beer (I know, but it was lunch time in my weak defense) and my wife went with the coffee. She said she didn't like the coffee - she isn't one who goes for the fancy coffee - we don't have a Keurig or Nespresso machine - just a plain old Mr. Coffee Jr at home, and if she didn't like the coffee, that says something to me. Service was very prompt from the moment we were greeted at the door until we left. The mens room was clean. The deodorizer in the urinal needed to be changed - it was completely exhausted.

Now, where I am from, fried chicken is sacred. They seem to use a wet batter (like the one long john silvers uses) a common batter used for fish, used for chicken. There is generally nothing wrong with this, but if you do not season your chicken or your batter you are in deep fry (water). When we were there I literally saw them opening up CANS of "chicken gravy" and taking frozen fries from the freezer. The sauce is too sweet for me and has an interesting dulce de leche consistency. So you have bland chicken breast, sugar sauce, and frozen or canned food you have BBY.

We got there at an odd time on a Sunday as there were only a couple of other tables occupied. We were greeted and seated promptly. The staff was friendly. The inside looks like a clean mom and pop restaurant you'll find in rural America. This one appears to be better maintained then most, but still gave that dated, rural Americana feel... which is warm and welcoming. The food is what you expect at places like this. It's warm, comfort food that isn't offensive to the pallet and priced to keep you coming back. I had an opened faced beef sandwich special they were offering. Which was to my liking. It wasn't anything special, but it was good and hit the spot. My girlfriend had their fried chicken. She liked it, but again it was nothing special. They did have a good selection of pies, unfortunately we were both full and didn't dare try any, but they did look good. Overall I'd say if you're in the area and hungry, you won't be disappointed. Just don't expect anything too fancy.
