Great small town, friendly, and welcoming breakfast spot. Biscuits and gravy are homemade but a bit dry. The gravy offsets the dryness. What makes this place shine is the hospitality and service. It's present and prompt but not over bearing.

The restaurant was super clean, food was great, and Kelly is a sweetheart. What more can you ask for? I had the chicken fried steak and eggs. Food was fresh. I recommend this place for sure.

Excellent place to eat breakfast. I ordered the country style potatoes, eggs and bacon with a homemade biscuit and gravy. The biscuit was soo delicious and a meal in itself. The historical photos of Porterville on the walls are a nice touch for those interested in the history of the town as well. Great, friendly service as well. I highly recommend this place. You won't be disappointed.

Soooo good! Our first time there was Tuesday morning. Around 10:30am. Not crowded. Love the calm atmosphere. The waitress was super friendly. Came by more than once to check on us. Food was amazing. Price is just right. The country potatoes were my favorite. Good cup of regular coffee, sugar, and cream. Parking lot filled up as we were leaving.

I am giving this place five stars because six is not an option. Chris (our waiter) what a class act! Thank you sir! The food though, as if the service could be topped, everything my wife and I had was absolutely delicious! This was an unscheduled stop while passing through but a memorable one nonetheless!
