One nice spot with adequate space to sit and enjoy breakfast. Getting a table was easy. Getting service....well that's a different story. Getting a coffe cup refilled....well, it was best getting up and going to the counter otherwise will still be waiting. When finally food arrived...it was more than an hr later, it was well cooked and tasty, hence the 4 stars and for the space. Service gets one star max.

We enjoyed everything we ordered - burgers, chicken nuggets, & chef’s salad. Go in with the right expectations (this is a local home cooking style eatery) & you’ll have a great meal. Great kids meal options. Pepsi products and wine available.

The food size and the taste is incredible. We came here after a long hiking trip, and the sufficient amount of food is just what we needed. Almost every entree comes with two sides of the choice and a trip to salad bar. Aside from abundant choice or the salad bar, the ingredients are frequently checked and changed so that it’s always fresh. The place is dog-friendly (as long as the dog is nice), and the fall decor is awesome.

Delicious, home-cooked goodness. Lovely staff, who got us seated quickly and were friendly all throughout. Didn’t have to wait too long, and they also have a salad bar! Atmosphere is very cozy, and it was tastefully decorated. Overall a really pleasant experience and if I’m ever back in town I know exactly where I’m going for dinner.

My family and I went for the dinner buffet yesterday. It was very delicious. The mashed potatoes were so good. The salad bar was amazing as well. The rolls yesterday were very good as well. I highly recommend eating here. The desserts are amazing as well. Oh, and the potato skins, were my favorite. I will always order them when we come in.

Visiting from Canada and stopped here for lunch on our way to Shenandoah Caverns. I had the salad bar and absolutely recommend it. The staff was friendly and welcoming and the price won't break your budget. Well worth stopping here.

We didn't actual eat here but they have a bar in their basement and it was amazing!! The owner was so cool and talked to her for awhile. The bartender Carl let us in 45 min before they opened and served us drinks anyway. They have TVs for sports and a free pool table. Old school looking stero system with Bluetooth. It's a secret spot!
