Sue SchuenamanJanuary 11, 2016Breakfast Pie and Biscuits and Gravy for our first visit. Yum! Coffee of the day. Can't wait to try more. Carrisa was great. They are already extending their hours to be open later.Upvoted 3 weeks ago- Sue SchuenamanAugust 14, 2017Breakfast is always good. So many choices. We came for lunch and still ate breakfast. The fried chicken and meatloaf looked and smelled so good. We promise to try them next.
