Pine Grove Junction

We were there for breakfast Wednesday August 24, 2022. Very simple straight-forward menu. Thick bacon, even thicker ham! Lots of jam choices for bread, good hashbrowns. Note they can overcook an omlet so tell them how you want your eggs cooked. You are way out in the country, don't expect an exotic breakfast menu, expect tasty food & friendly service. Your coffee cup is always topped off.
They get 5 stars because I'm in the context of what is available in the greater Republic area. They don't over-reach, they stick to basics and do them well.
This is just 6 minutes east of Republic and absolutely worth the 3 mile drive to get there. Clean bathrooms. It is within their gas station/mini mart building, so you can do some last minute shopping as well.

Came here for breakfast after hearing good things, and it was AMAZING! It's higher end, so expect to pay $15 for breakfast, but then you can expect not to have to eat for the rest of the day as well. I got the #4: 2 pancakes and sausage links, with 2 eggs on the side, and boy the pancakes were the size of hub caps! And the sausage links weren't the flimsy little plastic things you get at big chain breakfast places, they were thick juicy sausage that were just so good. Highly reccomend this treat of a place!

The restaurant at this place has very good food. The staff is extremely friendly and helpful.

I have to take away one star only because the dinner menu is overpriced. Like I said, The food is very good but it is still at a gas station and I don’t see spending over $20 a plate for gas station food. I bet that a lot of people pass it up and go somewhere else just because the prices are too high for dinner. Lunch menu prices are spot on and fair.
