I had the deluxe breakfast, my husband ordered the meat lover omelette and my MIL opted for biscuits with gravy and a side of scrambled eggs. Everything bite was lovely so we picked up 3 large cinnamon rolls to take home at the counter. There were 3 tipping options on the credit card terminal ranging from 20% to 30% on the total amount! I promptly selected the custom option and added my self-calculated amount based on a reasonable and respectable percentage on the pre-tax total of the dined-in portion. I'm glad I did my math at the table before going up to the cash register.

A 1/3# patty, apple maple bacon jam, bacon, lettuce, tomato, and crispy onions, on a toasted butterhorn roll. This was an excellent burger, the beef was high quality and delicious. The bacon jam gave it a slighty sweet, yet savory taste. Everything merged together perfectly to create a burger I definitely want to eat again. I got applesauce with it that was very good. I got some Cinnamon Rolls to take home and they were fantastic. I also got a Raspberry Cream Cheese Roll. Basically raspberry instead of the cinnamon mixture and it works. Definitely a home run. The service was fantastic. Super friendly and helpful. Overall a 5 star review. Would I return? Absolutely, this is worth the 90 minute drive. Both Cinnamon Rolls and Burgers deserve their spots on the best of lists.

Surprisingly Delicious and Packed with Veggies…read more I've been driving past this place since it opened over a year ago, assuming pasties would be heavy, greasy pockets of hamburger and gravy wrapped in pastry. Definitely not my thing--or so I thought. Yesterday, I saw a photo online of cookies for sale inside, so I decided to finally stop in. Turns out, they don't sell cookies anymore. But since I was already there, I figured I'd give one of the pasties a try. I went with the jalapeño cheddar sausage pasty. They had a few hot options ready to go, mostly the traditional hamburger-and-gravy style, but most of their pasties are sold frozen. You take them home and bake or reheat them in your own oven for about an hour. When mine was done, it looked great--light, golden pastry and generously stuffed. The first bite was a pleasant surprise. The crust was flaky and delicious, and inside was a hearty mix of potatoes, carrots, rutabaga, and other root vegetables, along with just enough sausage to add flavor without being overpowering. It actually felt pretty healthy--and it tasted fantastic. I'm really glad I gave it a shot, and I'll definitely be going back.

I was delighted to find this pasty place. Their pasties are huge and great tasting, too.

We went with a fried goat chase appetizer, which I've never had before, and never even seen on another menu before. The cook clearly enjoys using balsamic glaze as this was used on both the appetizer and later on my entrée as well. Balsamic glaze is certainly delicious, but I'm not sure if it goes well on quite as many things as the cook seems to think it does. My entrée was a dish of mushroom ravioli prepared in a purée made with green peas. I noted that the chef used a variety of spices in preparing the purée, to very good effect. My wife ordered the New York strip, and what was brought out looked very good. We both had cocktails, and in both cases the cocktails or well-made. I ordered a Mojito type drink made with tequila. My wife ordered a strawberry Mamosa. I noted the care that was taken in preparing both drinks which tells me there's a professional bartender on staff. About the only thing that needs to be improved is the service. We waited just a bit too long for certain aspects of the meal in a restaurant that was nearly empty. The server was certainly polite and well mannered, but I think he was the only one working that evening. Perhaps on weekends they're better staffed?
