Blake's
Description
A beloved local diner serves hearty Southern comfort—big breakfasts, burgers, pies and standout fries—drawing loyal regulars and travelers alike. Generous portions, daily specials and a homey, classic-diner atmosphere pair with easy highway access and plentiful free parking. Service and temperature consistency vary; some praise attentive staff while others report slow service, cold plates, and watered-down coffee. Note: cash only (ATM on site). Expect busy lunchtime crowds and unfussy, down‑home cooking.

The restaurant offers delicious comfort food with a country flair. The country fried steak, sweet potato casserole, and cornbread were all tasty and served in generous portions. The staff was very friendly, and the service was quick.
We arrived too late for breakfast, so we opted for an early lunch instead. It was absolutely delicious! The service was outstanding, and since it was our first visit, we enjoyed observing the locals as they came in; it was clear that everyone knew each other. I would describe it as a classic diner—very clean, and the food was great.
This charming family-owned local restaurant is a wonderful spot for enjoying a home-cooked meal. The staff is friendly and welcoming. Although it appears small when you enter, there is a spacious area in the back that can accommodate larger groups. While some items on the menu can be a bit pricey depending on your choices, the quality of the food makes it worth every penny. Overall, it's a great place to enjoy high-quality meals at a reasonable price.

I went here after visiting the zoo. I got the Corned beef Reuben and fries. I thought that both were great! The fries were the best I've had in a long time, I'd put them up there with KFC fries. The sandwich was great as well. One thing about this place you should know is they only take cash and they have an ATM inside. Another is that they have different dishes on different days of the week. Overall I highly recommend Blake's! Food: 5
