This is by far the best restaurant in town,Great food and the owner Betty and her staff are wonderful, We eat there 3 days a week.
This is our favorite restaurant for breakfast in all of Michiana. Great food every time. Went back recently, and the food was just as wonderful. A bit of a wait for our food (busy Saturday morning) but the service was good, and the fód amazing.
Between the people in the kitchen and the staff on the floor , I couldn’t have better service for my kids early in the morning. a great breakfast and conversation before school. Who knew they could even make a bunny butt pancake for Easter! Too cute
First time visiting and it was very good. Excellent service. Good food. It was a little chilly at our table, but it's very cold outside.
The meat lovers omelet is large and delicious. The pancakes are large too. The grits were good as well. The atmosphere is great and the service is quick and friendly.
Real southern sweet tea. I had the liver and onions with mashed potatoes and it was all good. The service was very good and the prices were amazingly low. I will definitely be going back.
They deserve 8 stars for their service! As soon as you walk in you are greeted with a massive smile as if you are an old friend... It is the nicest atmosphere in a cafe I've been to in South Bend. We were given a free brownie after by the lovely person serving us (that's bad I've forgotten her name). The brownies were incredible, home cooked by the lovely person serving us too. The food was great - big portions, rustic basic and great tasting food.
Stopped in for lunch. Busy place (on-site and street parking available). Food is dependably good; home cooking. We love their breakfast...must try their battered and fried bacon (served with syrup). Service was exceptional; our server had been there for 20 years.
