Love this place, the food is fantastic. My husband had the turkey club, real turkey breast not some shaved lunch meat. I got the 2pc fried chicken, I got to pick the pieces I wanted. Fresh made french fries and fresh sliced peaches. I would recommend this place to everyone.

The food is great and everything tastes fresh. I had the blueberry pancakes and they were delicious. Reasonably priced too.

I still love this place. I haven't been here in years as I don't live nearby anymore, but came here to eat all the time growing up. Had a home inspection for a client around the corner, decided to stop in for breakfast, and it's exactly the same as I remember. Love that this still exists--no shortage of hometown folks having a good meal, everyone saying please and thank you, polite attentive friendly servers, country style cooking, and reasonable prices. Was like stepping back in time because it still looked exactly the same, and had the same counter stools, ice cream case, the pie selection that changes daily, and of course the attached market and orchard. A true regional gem.

We got the boneless fried chicken breast because frying chicken at home is messy. It was wonderfully crispy, yet moist inside. The rolls were served with soft butter and were soft with a touch of sweetness. Potato salad and Cole Slaw were both homemade. The atmosphere is of a home cooking restaurant. It's not the romantic candles and tablecloth place. We were seated by a window that overlooked their baskets of flowers for sale. Our waitress was outstanding. She even brought us extra napkins without our having to ask. She was available without being intrusive. After dinner, we walked to their shop to buy some pies and apple cider donuts to take home with us. We shopped their day-old shelf. The Peach pie is fantastic. Day old is not a problem. Their apple pie is just as good. You can tell they're made from fresh fruit. It was well worth the 1+ hour drive

Old time family run restaurant. The family grows and makes their own fresh fruit products. Their desserts are to die for. They have specials every day, but walk ins only. The place is packed breakfast-lunch-dinner time so you may have to wait. I try to get there ahead of the rush;-). I’ve found no more than 20 or 30 minute wait at the most, and there is lots to see at the fresh produce section outside. I’ve been going there since my dad introduced it to me 60 years ago when we ate breakfast while going fishing together. Kids seem to like it for their hot pie with Icecream on top. Old kids like me go for that too;-) If you’re in the area and don’t stop to eat, it will be your loss:-(
