    I came there with my aunt and uncle last week. My grandfather ate there quite often back in the late 1930s and early 40s. We ordered Canteens and generous slices of yummy pie. We spoke with one of the waitresses. She was very kind and shared history of the little place with us. The food was delicious. The homemade pies were heavenly. It's a great little spot to make time to grab a bite to eat.

    Love this place the atmosphere is like no other. Grab a seat next to anyone. No one minds and enjoy a loose meat sandwich that's been around since 1938. It's a locals joy and any one traveling through I recommend you stop in. Get everything with cheese, peanut butter shake, and a a slice of pecan pie you will not regret it.

    I do a lot of traveling and found this to be my favourite so far. Nothing fancy, all done right here, and is good. Prices are reasonable and fair. For less than $10 you can have a sandwich and some fresh made pie! Fresh!

    Been in the same location since 1936 and when you go; you'll know why they're still there. Enjoy!

    Awesome no frills spot for lunch. Options are a loose meat sandwich or a hot dog and chips for a side. They have shakes and malts too. If you eat at the counter, they bring your second sandwich to you after you finish your first so it's hot. The 17 kinds of pie they have are homemade by a local and SO DELICIOUS.
