Resist the temptation to park directly in front, opting instead at least a block away…that way you’ll enjoy the sidewalk art on N Sycamore.

Yes, the soft green gingham curtains are drawn, but that’s not because they’re closed silly, it’s to keep the sun out of the very large windows.

Come on in. Slide onto either a newbie or original bar stool, either chrome is a good choice. Give it a spin like you did as a child when no one's looking.

Eat your greens! Grits and greens are great…who knew! My two eggs over medium were cooked medium which is always nice and the friendly & prompt server brought stacks of butter to bath my creamy grits in.

Priced competitively. You can pick up a fast food biscuit another day.

Look around…enjoy the homey diner feeling and for Pete’s sake, look up and up….and discover a wonderful tin ceiling.

Just wondering if any of those fancy Hollywood folk, you know the ones who wear straw hats incognito, give the Southern menu a whirl.

Chat with the nice young people working who remember your order before stepping back to...

Highly recommend coming here if you happen to be in the area. I stopped here for lunch with my kids on a drive back home to NoVA from Fayetteville. Great, tasty, down-to-earth comfort food. I got the catfish platter, my kids got the kid's pancake breakfast, 2 hot dogs, and we got an extra side of onion rings. Portions are big, but not obnoxiously so (where you're forced to leave a lot of it behind to be thrown away). Fries, catfish, and onion rings are crisp and crunchy. Loved the Dixie Dog. Cole slaw was homemade and very yummy. Service was very friendly and fast. Very nice people. It doesn't seem like there are predetermined tables assigned to the wait staff. Different wait staff just come up and ask to help you, seemingly whenever they're free. I didn't mind this at all. It helped reinforce the easy-going and mellow atmosphere of it all. All this for about 45 bucks. Great value for money. Definitely will come back here whenever we're passing through again. ...
