Great food and it’s a cute cozy small cafe! The Irvin burger (in photo) is really tasty! I seriously recommend stopping here if you haven’t tried them already!!

Great food and the staff is always friendly! Always see cars there and I love that we have a place back in town! The kids have went on field trips there and they are very community friendly! Gyro pictured below. A lot of food and fries!

Nice little diner for breakfast. Good food. Good service. Support small businesses when you can. Might have to drive a little but fresh is much better than the pre-pkg’d junk that kids put on your plate.

This place is a family operated restaurant. It's in an older building but it has a warm feeling. Food was outstanding and plentiful. Service was great and friendly. The place stays busy but it was worth going. And they keep everything affordable and nowadays that is great. Small town place with big upside. Will be going back for sure.

Stopped in Saturday 12/28/24 on our way from Mt. Vernon to Carbondale. So glad we did! Waitress immediately gave us menus and took our drink order as soon as we picked out a place to sit. Selection was good. Food came out quickly. And boy was it delicious. I had pancakes and biscuits and gravy (don't judge). Wife had a chicken Caesar sandwich. Reasonably priced as well. Great place, no regrets. Give it a try!
