This is a short drive from Biglervlle and very easy to find. Just a small building on the side of the road that doesn't seem like much. Don’t let that fool you as there's yummy goodness waiting inside. It is only open for breakfast and lunch, so be aware of that. Reminds me of an olde fashioned family diner. It keeps to the local flavors as there are a lot of different apple foods to get. Well, this is apple country, so it is to be expected. Walkin and sit yourself and get ready for some home cooking. They have a menu board for specials and a regular menu as well. It makes it hard to pick, but you have to narrow it down. I went for the Corned Beef Hash while my wife went for the French Toast specials. I got it later, but I had to have the Scrapple Fries with syrup. The memories of childhood came back as we used to have this when scrapple when I was a kid. The waitress was great and very patient with us. Our coffee never went empty either. It has a pleasant atmosphere and feels like we were part of a family. Plenty of locals were here which tells you just how good the food is here. For the 2 of us, it came to just under 30. They do accept credit cards, but cash is king here. Definitely worth the drive for some delicious home cooking.

We have been told by some people to try here for breakfast. The serving are great size and the staff is great. The options are very good and turn around quick. We liked it so much we went back for lunch the next week. If you are in the area stop by.

Cute little place with good food and good service. This isn’t fast food, it’s a place to sit back and enjoy your meal. You want fast food go to subway down the road.
