Historic building that I originally found on Yelp. Home cooked selections for lunch and dinner and breakfast on the weekend. They keep their Facebook updated so you know what the daily specials are before coming. Pretty much everything I have tried was good. Did breakfast for the first time today and sausage gravy was excellent and I am a gravy snob it passes the test. Usually not too busy and can walk in and get a table. I recommend trying nice country drive.

Awesome little hole in the wall. Great southern food options. Not a lot of seating inside but the food and service is great!

We must have visited on an off night. There are only 6-7 tables in this place and it was not full. However, it took an hour and a half for us to get our food from the hot bar! We ordered from the hot bar because we knew it would be the quickest...No idea what was happening. Possibly understaffed? Possibly new staff?The food was good, which is why I'm giving them 4 stars.

Don't run here, SPRINT! A true gem tucked away. If you see this and you think ahh this place is too far, shut up and go. The food is delicious and is truly a place you'd find on Diners, Drive Ins and Dives.The Fired Okra is easily the best I've ever had, don't tell my mother-in-law. Patty Melt is out of this world flavorful and the Philly might be my new go to.Service.. it's the bomb. Everyone is friendly and goes the extra mile. You get the feel as if you're at home.

We stop by on a Sunday about 1am... my wife went in to order & get the food .. they told us it would be about 45 minutes, but we expected that due to it being after church services...it was about 1 hour & 10 minutes,... but I tell you, I got the Philly cheesesteak & the wife got the regular hamburger... that cheesesteak was so good it was worth the wait..I told my wife I could eat their cheesesteak 3 times a week it was so good...next time I think we will stop on off hours, so it's not so busy

My heart is officially touched. Walking in this gem is like walking back in time. Read the back of the menu to understand deeper what I mean folks. Just go n get you some grub. I had the chicken sandwich (fried and open faced-- I just took the top of the bread off and went to town with my fork). The paper liner didn't hold up to the cutting but then again most folks use their hands to hold a sandwich! Todd made our night. I think he was the only brave souls working and my tender heart went out to tue guy, who was jolly, professional and quick on his feet. When I went to the bathroom I read a sign telling how it's hard to get people who wanna work and they're most likely short staffed so be sure to be patient and kind to the people who decided to show up and serve you. Kinda that thought NOT word for word. I got a thought. What if we all bussed our own table when we noticed a place is understaffed. A huge "we're hiring" sign was the first thing is saw when I pulled up. So they're tryin'!!! If you're anywhere near this place please go. Wait patiently and smile big cause he deserves it!!!! In fact. If you know someone needing a job. Please apply. Spread joy if ya got it. If you don't. Get it! Jesus loves you. Keep supporting local.

Came here for the first time this past weekend. It was kind of slow because we got there about an hour before close. I can't for the life of me remember my server's name, but he had brown hair, young kid. Super sweet and helpful. There was another person there too, don't remember names too well, but short hair, wearing an apron, so most likely a cook. Also very nice, sat and talked to me a little while we were finishing up. Fried bologna was good. My bf's philly was delicious and tender. And they have corn nuggets. One of my faves! Star of the show: Tater sauce. I'm gonna make it at home now and put it on everything! Will definitely be back!

I saw that they were selling Philly Cheese steak sandwiches and I had to try it out. It was good and so were the tots. They staff were very nice and I liked the rustic decor. I will be going back.

Very small cafe about 20 min away from Murfreesboro and it was definitely worth the drive. It is very inexpensive and the staff is personable. The food was yummy and it has an old farmhouse feel inside. Check it out if you're in town or from the local area!
