We always make it a point to stop for breakfast or lunch. Everything is made home made. Portions are awesome and prices very reasonable. We haven't been to their happy hour but the sign says 3 wine, beer and well drinks!! This place is great!!!
Founded in 1961, Mary's Cafe has been well known for it's Chicken fried steak ever since. Prepared to order, this menu item is among the best I have enjoyed for a very long time. The steak was tender and flavorful. The hand dipped breading was crispy and flavorful. The country gravy had a great country flavor. The service was very friendly and prompt. The dining rooms are spacious and comfortable. A welcoming restaurant where all will feel welcome.
Great local spot. And the thing is the locals are great. They’re down to earth and well as a native I choose this spot over others. Yet myself have found friendships worth more than any review. The reason I love it is because you have a daily special at 4 pm. The bar staff is phenomenal and aim to precipitate your needs. Glasses are pre chilled for drafts ( my fav) and the food menu is portions meant for a hard days work or sharing! I had the nachos with sweet smoked pork. But kid u not I make excuses for thier bacon wrap hotdog! The full menu is well done it’s great flavor and fresh!Breakfast is another epic. Happy hour at 4.A safe place . Great food and great people. I love it .
This place is a real gem. For any trucker passing by stop in for a taste. No rush service. Service with a cool smile. Good grill and home cooked selection. I recommend the brisket or the pork grilled cheese with fries. All baked goods are baked in-house so you know it’s delicious. I hope longevity and prosperity for this little spot.
Just wonderful.. Drove over 400 hundred miles.. Had a pit stop.. What a pleasent sent little find... Customer service was brilliant to say the least. Sky the waitress was so attentive.. The food stood out for me. We where a party of 6 and we loved it...... We are From the UK... 5 from us... Thank you sky...
I ordered the nachos with sweet heat pork, and they were so good. The chips were home made and the highlight of the evening. My partner ordered a burger, and he said it was good. The giant cinnamon roll was huge!!! A little dry though.
We’re driving thru and stopped for lunch on a Thursday. Not crowded at all; service was friendly & fast. Taco salad for me, BLT for my companion. Everything was really good!
Phenomenal Hamburger and Fries. Absolutely delicious. They actually have several seasonings they offer for your fries. Plus you have about 1000 combinations available for your hamburger. The hamburger itself was absolutely mouthwatering delicious. They obviously use extremely high-quality ingredients across the board. It’s the funny these great places you discover on the road as a truck driver. This is a gem! The customer service was spectacular, and they have a great sound system for karaoke on Saturdays. All the employees were smiling, and the patrons were just as happy as me! Yes, I will be back!!! Thank you guys so much!!!
