First, the good: the prices here were very reasonable. The not so great: I’m not a fan of political signs inside a restaurant. The food was just okay (but again: reasonably priced adequate food). The service was just okay. The decor was right out of the early 80s but not in a cool retro way- just never upgraded or renovated. It’s just okay. Service: Dine in Meal type: Lunch

Stopped for Sunday morning breakfast. Excellent! Service: Dine in Meal type: Breakfast Price per person: $10–20 Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5

An absolutely wonderful, local, breakfast/lunch diner – type family restaurant where you are tended to as if you were a valued family member, served food that’s perfectly prepared and never nagged with that insecure server, asking “how is everything“ every 20 seconds. The corn beef hash is homemade and with two poached eggs and a biscuit with some cheese grits? That’s a breakfast from heaven. Don’t miss this place if you’re in the Linville crossroad area.

Wonderful small town vibe, bring cash! Service: Dine in Meal type: Breakfast Price per person: $10–20 Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 4 Recommended dishes: Grits
