    Good little dinner. Food is always fresh. Good deal for the homemade type of food. We eat there a couple times a year. Never a bad experience. Got there this time just before closing. Had a big plate of turkey, dressing and gravy. Really good. Just happened to get back from Taccoa falls and noticed the picture on the wall.

    Google find on way home from camping at Don Carter State Park. Arrived Sunday at 1:00, long line but moved reasonably quickly as this is a cafeteria style restaurant. Biscuit, mashed potatoes and gravy, green beans were delicious. Chicken tenders slightly chewy, but generous portion. Collards, potato salad, rice & gravy, chicken & dumplings and peach cobbler were good, but not outstanding. Sweet tea was great! Our 3 meals were $36 total, so very reasonable! We love finding small town places like this! Workers very kind! Would return if in the area again! Thank you!

    Wonderful place, be sure and stop in if you have not already. I came in right as they were switching over from breakfast to lunch, and had to make a really tough decision. Everything looked and smelled delicious. I ended up going with breakfast, two eggs over medium, grits, pork tenderloin and a huge cathead biscuit. I can't wait to come back and try lunch. Many different choices, meats, veggies and desserts. Come in hungry, you will not leave that way. Good people, good meat, good Lord let's eat.

    Went here for breakfast a few weeks ago. I had driven past this cafe many times over the years, but finally got to see how it was like. I found the many rabbit dolls and figures to be quite amusing. I ordered one of their breakfast specials which came with scrambled eggs, tenderloin, and biscuits smothered in gravy. The meal was both delicious and filling just what I needed to start the day. Really good and welcoming customer service and atmosphere!

    Located adjacent to a gas station, this cafeteria-style cafe features a good mix of basic meals at reasonable prices. Not fancy and with helpful staff, it's a nice change from the usual fast food joints. Not far off of the northern end of 985 in Georgia.

    Classic southern breakfast place. Cathead biscuits, fried tenderloin, white and brown gravy, country ham, and more! The biscuits are cooked fresh all day. The tea is alway fresh too. Homemade cake slices are so good!
