The Swanson was really great, creamy, and yummy. The cider was good, but waaaaayyyyy too sweet in a coat-your-mouth way.

Seating was open and welcomed as the temps were over 90 outside. I also notices a great hotdog, chip and a drink deal they offer. Didn't try but will remember for the future and leave room for ice cream after!!

Over the years on these vacations Toby and I have stopped in a handful of donut shops we were told…read morewere the best in the area. Whether it's wanting to take a break from the large platters we have in the morning usually on these trips are just genuinely craving something sweet, most donut shops are just okay. Ralphs was a genuine find. Not only was the glazed exactly like in an old-fashioned--the sourdough taste and such good nook and crannies texture-wise--but that maple bar was probably the best one I've ever eaten. The donut was soft and pillowy with a good chew to it. But that maple topping was like the perfect texture; it was runny but still had real heft to it. It was like someone put pure molten maple on top and if you shook it too hard like a wet dog it would all just go flying. Every bite I wish I could repeat because it was a donut that seemed to go by too fast. The counter person couldn't have been more friendly. She was like tidal wave of warmth and kindness to us. I wish all folks who worked morning shifts could be this nice. The ambiance was good. It was a little tiny with the counter space. But the fact it is a donut shop and not a restaurant makes the fact they could pack in twenty or so seats at all amazing. And of course they'd be packed with customers sitting shoulder-to-shoulder. If I lived close to a donut shop like this , I'd want to come every morning for my donuts and coffee. I'd definitely get fat here. Overall, this is my ideal donut shop. There's a reason we made the 60 mile drive here for a few donuts and milk, and then drove 60 miles back to the hotel. There are just some donut joints that are worth a 120-mile donut run.

There are few places left that I have been that truly evoke nostalgia. The kind of nostalgia that…read moreeven my granny would identify with. A slower pace. An old Coca Cola menu board. The smell of fresh yeast and powdered sugar. Ralphs. Please never change. Not the original donut cases. Not the recipes. Nothing. We drove all the way from Nashville to Cookeville for the privilege of buying a dozen of these heavenly donuts. Nothing inventive really. But a flavor profile that wins every time.

Had scrambled eggs (no complaints), buttermilk pancakes (not spectacular but just fine), and biscuit and gravy (inedible / the gravy was a little orange). I saw an omelet, and it was huge.

I was a regular customer and was always grateful to send friends here. The past few times I have come in have not been good and I don't plan on coming back.

I love trying different international dishes that are authentic instead of made for the pallet of picky eaters.
