Rebecca Gishkariany: Get the house smoked salmon on the cedar plank. The side of Brussel sprouts and the mash and gravy are awesome. End with the 4 later carrot cake & white russian adult milkshake with oreo YUM.
Adam Sigel: Get one of the homemade pop-tarts or a donut while you wait. The tomato soup is a longstanding family recipe and perfect with a grilled cheese on a cold day. Tasty and unpretentious.
Jason Van Dyke: Eat everything. Because that's what's good here.

John Bremer: Overall the food is good. It's not spectacular food, but still good. The best things were the drinks and the desserts. Highly recommend the carrot cake and the mini smores desserts.
Jill Molina: For lunch, try the grilled cheese -- comes stuffed with a fried green egg, brie, and peach jam! Had it twice and it was fantastic each time.
Kendal Ann: You must check out the restrooms while you're here!
