It's one of those places located on "Main Street" in a small town that caters to locals. I found that is was the perfect place for lunch. It has atmosphere in spades and makes you know that you are out-west, in the authentic meaning of the word. The service was friendly and competent. I particularly enjoyed my hamburger. It was grilled as requested and had a great beefy taste. The fries were plentiful and tasty. My wife's chicken tenders were kind of average, but she enjoyed them, as well as the fries. This isn't five star dining, but it's the kind of place that you are glad you found because it's exactly what you wanted for lunch.
