I had a Rajun Cajun burger that was delicious. The spicy potato salad was ok but not what I like.

My brother-in-law had a shark sandwich that he said was out of this world! My mushroom swiss burger was delicious too!

Great breakfast and a great ambience. And one of the few places that knows how to brew tea : with boiling water.

David Burgess

Had the Rajun Cajun Burger , which was well spiced. Not over the top. But just right. Potatoes were OK, think I'd like regular fries rather than breakfast style potatoes .

P Ward

Omg..the best. Smithfield ham with strips of chicken over rice ..and a Tom Collins ????
