Very delicious breakfast diner style food but! the pancakes I give them a 10, huge and full of flavor. Would have given them a 5 star but they were out of potatoes 🥔 had to choose a different dish than what I was craving for. We love the bear 🐻 style décor

Went here for my mom's birthday. The inside looks nice, but was empty. There was two other couples there when I was. Salad was standard lettuce and dressings. Corn bread I have no words for.

Taco Salad ! The service was great and the food was even better. I love the taco salad! My drink stayed full and my extra jalepenos hit the spot. It's good to be able to have a place to go where you know its going to be great all the way around.

Delicious breakfast and attentive service. Our waiter was an openly gay man named Shawn and he was really cool to me and my family. He kept checking on us to ask if we needed anything and he talked to us about it being his first day back at work. We talked and ate and had a great visit. I highly recommend the eggs Benedict. My son's chicken fried steak was really good. My family and I enjoyed our maskless and inside dining meal and will be happy to return and we hope Shawn is still on duty.

Arrived at 8am on Saturday, no wait. We ordered the vegetarian omelette and added bacon, red potatoes, 5oz chicken fried steak with hash browns and biscuits plus gravy. Everything was flavorful and DELICIOUS, giant portions, fresh food, even the coffee was really good. Our server Shawn was amazing and very friendly. Everything was beyond worth the price! Definitely recommend to anybody, and we will be back.
