“ Great cafe! Very cozy atmosphere, lovely servers. Delicious meal - loaded potato soup and salad. Highly recommend. ”
“ It is a very good diner that serves good food. It is a little smaller with six counter chairs and maybe ten booths. The servers are friendly and the prices were right in line with regular prices today. Not lower than or higher than other diners. They have a bigger parking lot that wraps around the back of the building. There was plenty of room for us to park our full size truck pulling a cargo trailer. I highly recommend this diner! ”
