"So, so good! Small cafe in Apalachicola that serves breakfast and lunch. We stopped in for breakfast. It was served from the deli style bar, but it was so good. 👍 Give it a try when you are looking for a quick, casual place to eat!
Updated: 01/21/2025. Stopped in for a quick lunch. I rarely eat fried foods, but splurged on a fried pork chop. Let me tell you, it was pure southern perfection 👌"

"A lovely little “dive” restaurant in Appalachicola. Buffet breakfast for under $10 and option of lunch from buffet style or menu order. I am a Reuben snob and the Reuben I had there was the best I have had in many, many years. There are only 7 tables (4 toppers) but turnover seemed pretty quick and lots of peeps doing takeout. All the food is fresh prepared in their kitchen. Even the fries are fresh cut. Sumptuous southern eating at its best. This is a definite stop and try if you are in the area. Such a perfect little place."

"A wonderful place for breakfast or lunch. There is an amazing breakfast bar that ends at 10 with different things each day and the price is great at $7.99. You can also order off the menu. At 11 a lunch bar is set up (as well as ordering from the menu) and it changes daily. The day we were there it was fried chicken, Mac and cheese, green beans as well as other dishes for $10.99.
It’s so good they have regulars that come every day."
