We drive from Georgia to Pennsylvania every year to visit relatives. This restaurant is a stop we always look forward to along the way. The food is homemade, reasonably priced and the atmosphere is always pleasant. The best part is you can purchase fresh baked cookies and pies to take along. more

The food was good, plentiful and reminded me of my mother's cooking. Great restaurant after being on the road and eating fast food for lunch, etc. more

We were seated and raised our eyebrows when the waitress said they didn't serve sweet tea. Automatically we deducted 30 points from their "Southern Cred." We both ordered... more

We arrived late - at closing (we weren't aware they were closing). Service was friendly, but our waiter was new and wasn't helpful with dessert selections. Our food was fine, but nothing special at all. Probably will not return for lunch and dinner, but might give breakfast a try one day.
