Ordered biscuits with sausage gravy and pancakes. Food was mediocre, service was lacking. Waitress interacted with us at the very end once we were paying. Other than that, we were pretty much ignored. Had to wave down waitresses for service. Food was over priced for amount received. Other restaurants give pancakes, eggs, bacon. Here you pay the same for just pancakes. Seems like poor service and over priced bad tasting food is a trend here in Port A.

I didnt know what to make out of the drunken hostess who wasnt sure if my party wanted to eat at the restaurant. Well... we didnt come in to watch everyone else eat. After sitting, a while I may add, and getting our food, any doubts I had about this place were put to rest. The food was incredible. Try the All-U-Can eat fish or tasty chicken tenders. Very impressed and would return anytime. Even with the drunk hostess.

Stumbled upon this cute place after deciding waiting an hour for Moby Dicks wasnt worth it. The service was excellent and the food was great! Not a huge selection but what they do offer was very tasty and they were accommodating to changing some things up. There were 5 of us and we all tried something different and liked it. I recommend to anyone who doesnt want to wait around at tourist traps!

Sat and ordered breakfast right away... 45 mins later our waitress informs us that they lost our (and several tables that came after us) ticket. We reorder... 15 mins later after everyone else gets their orders we get our marginal breakfast that is now more of a brunch. Asked for the manager which comped our meals...but at that point I was not going to pay for the meal anyways.

I had the chicken fried steak which looked really appealing when it hit the table, but that was the highlight. The meat was good quality but the gravy was tasteless and the green beans tastsed like they came from a can. The only reason I gave this place three stars was that my wife had the fish and chips which were really good. The service was good.

Went for breakfast and got pancakes they are as big as the plate and are so delicious. My favorite is the western omelette. And my family all enjoyed it.so we went back for dinner and we all got the famous fish chips they were amazing and tell it was fresh. Wait staff was very friendly. We will be back. Highly recommend this place.

Had breakfast. Almost left because of cigaret smoke; I can not remember the last time I went to a restraurant with a smoking section only inside and only a few feet away. Eggs and biscuit were good, has browns were greasy. Will not go back.

Ive been coming here my whole life and the prices went up so much that I almost walked out. It is a small cafe with a laid back atmosphere but they are priced like a 4 star elegant restaurant. I posted a pic of the menu. You decide

Came here to get lunch but prices kinda high and waitress should be fired. Dont need to come to wait on people if you dont like your job! No one needs service with an attitude. Will spend my money elsewhere next time.

Awesome place! The two ladies serving were excellent despite being busy. The food was more than we imagined. Pancakes were big!! Suggest buying a four stack and splitting it amongst your party.

This place is down to earth. It makes you feel at home. Home made gravy, soups, pies, bread pudding, croutons, etc. , there is a salad bar that is amazing.

Good was good. Our total bill came out to $52+. A burger, adult fish plate, and a kids plate. Ridiculous. Food is not worth $52. Great staff and atmosphere.

All the fish you can eat but the plate and salad bar work too. They cook eggs well for breakfast and the waitresses are good.
