First time here, As long as I have been living here, never found the time till now to try it out. Having Alcoholic Beverages this early in Va is catching on seems like everyone here is having a drink with me. The food & service was excellent. Definitely will make plans on coming back

THEY HAVE SCRAPPLE and it was cooked just like I remember at grandmas breakfast table! Service was friendly and all food arrived as ordered hot and delicious! The pancakes are HUGE with no sacrifice of flavor or fluff. And the cheesy grits - yes cheesy! Friends enjoyed their waffles! Can't wait to return...it's quite popular too, but tables rotate quickly

What a cute little place! It is a hidden gem. We came out of town and just wanted to find a nice breakfast place near the airport. Was happy to find this place. Very cozy, the food is delicious and comes out fairly quickly even when the place is busy, servers are very kind and nice!
