One of our fave finds on our recent trip to Tennessee for a wedding. The club sandwich was fantastic, the biscuits and gravy were some of the best I ever had, and the kids really enjoyed their pancakes. The restaurant was spotless and the staff was friendly and attentive. The convenience store at the front was great as well. We were so sad when we went back the next day to see that the diner was closed, so just keep in mind they aren’t open on Sunday & Monday for dine-in!

New ownership has done an amazing job here. The place looks great and the food is excellent. Chef Doug is awesome and the ladies are very sweet. We go several times a week

Most disappointing experience I’ve had in a long time. The place was almost empty with only two other parties there. There were at least four waitresses working but they all seemed very young and inexperienced. When my bland looking breakfast was delivered I found that the egg whites were runny and asked to have it cooked a little longer. A full 20 minutes later I got it back overcooked and barely palatable omelette with hard cold toast. When we were checking out I believe they overcharged us but the waitress had no idea how to recall the order and check. It was so disappointing and frustrating we just walked out after paying. Avoid this place at all costs you’ll be better off driving to Mountain City and eating breakfast at McDonald’s.

Just wanted to say the 2 girls at the counter let us use the place wifi to find our directions to this spot at Watauga lake. Really thankful for that. We also bought some drinks and snacks.

I think I’d eat breakfast here just about every day if I was able! The service was so friendly, and it just felt like home. The breakfast scramble was like something my grandfather used to make, and it was amazing. The biscuits and gravy were fantastic as well. Definitely worth a stop if you’re in the area.
