I had a deep-fried pork loin sandwich, and it was absolutely delicious! The hot food service was fantastic, as always. I highly recommend it!
After miles of winding mountain roads, we were happy to stumble onto this little off the road eatery. They were friendly and welcoming and their food hit the spot! We had the recommended Philly, a cheese burger and fries. All were fresh and wonderful! I even opted for a vanilla shot in my tea- try it- you might be surprised- it was good! Two thumbs up ? ?
The pulled pork sandwiches here are among the best I've ever tasted. It was a daily special, so it may not always be on the menu. I also highly recommend trying the cherry limeade. The staff is very friendly as well.
Just a little spot off of the road, doesn’t have a place to go in and eat, has a couple of tables out on the side, but everyone was really sweet and the food was delicious and the milkshake (butter pecan) was AMAZING!

The food is delicious and you get so much that you can't hardly eat it all and for a damn good price. And they have a good selection of ice cream that will knock your boots off Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5
