Description

Set in a cozy, slightly worn building, this owner-run spot serves hearty comfort food — juicy burgers, roast beef, meatloaf and a popular Thanksgiving buffet — with generally friendly service. Many praise attentive staff and excellent classics, but visits can vary: expect occasional long waits, inconsistent portions and preparation (burnt or dry dishes), and reported fly problems. Worth a drive for homestyle flavors and bottled drinks, though quality and pace can be uneven on some nights.

Wonderful Luau Burger!!! Juicy and tasty. Strongly recommend it. Well worth the drive off the interstate. Friendly service. Best thing is they know what scrapple is and how wonderful it is.

Casual atmosphere with a welcoming home feel. Stopped for Sunday lunch and discovered a buffet style feast of tender pork chops, chicken pot pie, collards cooked with thick pieces of bacon, stewed tomatoes, flavorful mashed potatoes made with butter and red skin potatoes, beef gravy, scalloped potatoes with slices of sweet onions and cheddar cheese, baked apples, summer squash and onions, green beans, broccoli casserole, and rolls. Dessert was included in the meal and included slices of coconut cake, a maple-flavored cake, and white cake topped with strawberry sauce. Friendly and helpful service.
