The bread on the subs is fresh made and delicious. Every sub is made to order, no requests too much for JB's. If you are traveling through Sparta, it's definitely worth the trip. Prices were very reasonable too!! Which means a lot these days.

This is an oasis of food in a rural area. They offer online ordering, which I kind of wish I'd done…read morebecause it was crowded and there was a wait, but when you're driving the parkway down here, getting any kind of cell service is iffy. They have indoor and outdoor seating, both of which was full. Often times I walk into restaurants where I'm the only person who doesn't speak the language; here I was clearly the only non-Appalachian person in sight. They offered a veggie burger based on black beans, for which I got more beans as a side. The burger didn't hold together well and made a bit of a mess, but this was ultimately solvable. The accoutrements added to make a dynamic flavor, so I wasn't too disappointed. Their pinto beans came with onions and chow chow, which again elevated the flavor. I appreciated the opportunity to order an apple cider in season. The ability to get fresh and vegetarian-friendly food in this area is valuable. It's not fancy, but it is fresh.

Delicious sandwiches on home baked bread, which we ate in big comfy chairs on the front porch. But it is also a step back in time. We wandered around the General Store, looking at the jars of jellies and pickles, bags of noodles, loaves of homemade bread, and so many other items. Bought some bread, egg noodles, and popcorn, to take home. Check it out!

They have a mix of local bulk foods (honey, jellies, jams, chocolates, candies, etc.), a cooler aisle (drinks, sauerkraut, etc.), and a sandwich deli in the back. Bathrooms are clean. Parking is plentiful. And there's no hurry in shopping. If you can't find something, they'll point you to three kinds of whatever you're asking for. You will always buy twice what you expected and eat some multiple of the candies you promised yourself you'd "save" on the way home. So save room in your trunk, people.

First time visiting both the music hall and having dinner from the cafe…read more The band was Empire Strikes Brass, and they were excellent as always. We were seating at a high top table in the music hall for dinner. We had beer, then an appetizer, then dinner. Service was not terrible, but there were not enough servers working. We loved the buffalo cauliflower, but had to order extra sauce as some pieces were barely sauced. The ranch was good, seemed homemade. My jackfruit bbq sandwich with coleslaw was the winner at the table. Quinoa burger was okay, but very bland. The regular burger was fine, fries were also fine. We had a great time dancing in front of the stage to the band, after our server ghosted us. We will go back for a good band but might skip having dinner there.
