I do not give 5 Star reviews often. We went for breakfast the biscuits and gravy are possibly the best I've ever had. Love the small town charm and the pro 2nd Amendment sign in the front. I will be back again and again they are selling this restaurant, I hope whoever buys it does not change the food or hospitality. Definitely recommend you check it out.
