While some of their prices were reasonable, the cost of a chuckwagon sandwich was $5.50 just for the sandwich alone. At other places, I can get a chuckwagon sandwich along with fries and a drink for only $6.00.

The sandwiches are quite good, the fries are excellent, the prices are reasonable, and the staff is exceptional. Overall, a lovely restaurant. read more The sandwiches are quite good, the fries are excellent, the prices are reasonable, and the staff is exceptional. Overall, a lovely restaurant.

I highly recommend trying the puffs as an appetizer and any of their open-faced sandwiches for lunch. Be on the lookout for days when they have stewed beef as a special! If it's available, make sure to order a stew burger—it's not on the menu, but you won't regret it! This place is excellent for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. It's a good sign when the locals choose to eat here!

It's the yin to the Mad Batter's yang. Although I preferred it when there was no sign, I've got to say that it's a bit easier to find now that the sign outside actually says what's inside. As to what to order, just order something brown and you won't be disappointed (steak, burger, fried anything). I'd avoid the green stuff and get it somewhere else. Not the place to go for health, but a place to remind yourself that you can still have a good meal with no capers, rosemary or cumin.
