Breakfast was great. Biscuits/gravy, country ham, eggs, apples, hash browns, yum. Fast, professional friendly service and good food at a very reasonable price. Clean and nice too!

It is very nice to go on vacation to another state and meet very nice people who make you feel at home. Definitely whenever I pass through here it will be my point to eat a sweet breakfast.

First time in the quaint café. Decorated like grandma’s kitchen in full southern charm. The staff was quick to greet me as I entered. When asked what she recommended she said “its all good” then told me the special of the day was loaded potato soup or meatloaf. I chose the soup and chicken salad sandwich combo for $8. Both were good, as promised. I live two hours away but will definitely be stopping back in if I’m down that way. Right off the I-81 exit, take a right at the light and you’ll be there in 2 minutes. I hear they have specialty dinners on Friday nights.

This was my first time there. The food was good, the coffee was great, the people were nice. It’s a charming place that just makes you feel like you need to come back again but you don’t really know why. The only negative thing I’ll mention is the bacon was insultingly thin. Nothing else was skimpy though and I was full in the end which is difficult to do for me. The prices were honestly lower than expected. After ordering the most expensive thing, plus coffee, plus an extra side I still spent $12 after tax AND tip. Overall I wouldn’t fix anything that’s not broken but if the owners are reading and open to suggestions, as a customer I’d happily pay 20% more across the menu to have thick cut bacon and a plate warmer in the kitchen. Still, you get 5 stars from me which is impressive as I’m a harsh breakfast critic.

This is possibly one of my favorite restaurants I have ever been to. Absolutely amazing staff, home cooked and very comforting food that’s easy on the stomach and an amazing send homey atmosphere.

Great place with authentic atmosphere! We travelled to pigeon forge from nva and stopped at this pace for breakfast. Great home feel atmosphere, home made omelettes, very interesting decor. Loved it so much that on our way back stopped again.
