We've eaten twice now at the Appalachian Trail Cafe. I had the BBQ Burnt Ends Mac N Cheese the first time and the Corned Beef Hash with Eggs this time. Both meals were outstanding.
Mac-n-cheese with bbq pork bits in it is a no-brainer. How can that be bad? To be fair, I can imagine a few ways it could go wrong, but this place does it perfectly.

Read moreGreat breakfast at the AT Cafe! we went for breakfast both yesterday and today. The ownership has recently changed, but this was my first time here, so I cannot comment on the cafe as ran by the prior owners.
The staff was super friendly and attentive, made sure we had everything we wanted.

home fries were cooked very well.
I will definitely be making AT Cafe a regular stop this...

I chose an omelet which was packed with veggies and cheese. The homefries were also tasty as well as the homemade English muffin. The servers were focused and friendly. They seemed to know many customers on a first name basis. The surroundings will keep you entertained while you wait for your order. The ceiling is covered with the trail names of hikers that have hung out there. There's a wall with an array of nature photos, a little nook with a woodsman painting, and plenty of wall hanging with...
