Food Scene
This place has been around a long time & is a locale fav. It's not fancy, but has good food, especially the coleslaw & fruit pies! I understand the original owner recently passed & some recent reviews have mixed opinions, but totally worth making up your own mind, especially if you're nostalgic for your Grandma's kitchen!
