The fried chicken is a throwback to when I was a little kid at the annual church meeting held under the oak grove. Someone named Annie May or Grammaw Kate would bring their special fried chicken which everyone would crowd around and hope for a piece. Some years you wouldn't get any. Earl's chicken is luscious because - it's a tastier bird to begin with; it's cooked thoroughly with no rubbery meat surrounding the bone; the crust is peppery and salty and not too thick. Just completely delicious. Come with an appetite because you'll get a lot of food and it's a shame to walk away from great food, but it's a bigger shame to just stuff yourself because it's there. Maybe you can arrange to split your meal.

Classic diner. Could picture yourself eating here back in the 60âs while traveling the mother road. Food was great. We had hand pressed hamburgers and tater tots. Lots of good Mexican food served around us too. You know itâs good when all the locals eat here too!

Tasty french toast (oddly shaped, very large, possibly made with pancake batter), eggs, ham, and hasbrowns! big breakfast and super yummy! Diner is small and a bit crowded but we got a table right away. Service was quick and friendly. It's a locals place as the waitress knew most of the customers' names. Check it out!
