I can't say enough great things about this place. We stopped in with a fairly large group on a Saturday afternoon. Sue and her crew were able to get us in, get us fed and provided a little entertainment as well. The food was great, so was the service and it doesn't break the bank to eat here. We like to support these "mom & pop" type places and this one is a gem. Thank you for having us Sue. We'll do our best to get back as often as we can!

What a place! My girlfriend and I were in the area and stumbled upon this restaurant, which completely made our day. Sue and Gary are absolutely great, and Sue’s food is incredible. This gem is worth the drive. Places like this are far and few between, but there’s definitely no one like Sue. She whipped us up the best hot brown, onion rings, and frog legs I’ve ever had, all the while telling us hilarious stories of her experiences. 10/10 would recommend. Thank you Sue and Gary!

Well let me tell ya, Sue can cook! Went there for breakfast on a Sunday and I wish I had taken pics of the plates of food because they looked amazing! My wife had country fried steak and hash browns with over medium eggs cooked perfectly. I had country ham and taters with onions and scrambled eggs. I ate every bite and wanted more. Fantastic country cooking and friendly atmosphere. Can’t wait to come back!

I stopped in after sitting on my motorcycle for many hours. I needed a place to stop and relax. This was exactly what I needed. I had a BLT, fries, and a milk. Everyone was friendly and the owner pleasant and engaging. Thank you for a nice meal and chance to rest up a bit!!

Nice small town restaurant. Onion rings were very good. Kentucky Hot Brown is a must have meal. Ham and turkey on toast covered in cheese gravy. It was filling and tasty. The catfish was good. They have specials. Service was great. You pay at the counter when done. The deserts looked great but I wasn't hungry

We went it was slow and talked to the owner. She was a delight. Gary and Sue both served us. The catfish was great and homemade hush puppies were the best I had so far.

Have ate here multiple times and never had bad food or experience. Always friendly, amazing food! The fish was great, my husband loves the burgers. THE FRIES are AMAZING. Just as good as cooked at home! Couldn’t ask for better. Good portion sizes, the kids all love it.
