We frequent Lynn Catherine’s mainly for dinner and/or Wednesday Trivia. Everything we have ordered there has been delicious. Servers Bobbi and Letha are friendly and efficient. DJ Kyle does a fabulous job of making trivia entertaining and challenging.

Reviewed By Kelly K

The owners of Gyorgos have been in the restaurant business for more than 30 years. They know what they're doing and they do it well. Breakfast is always my favorite meal but there are gems on their menu that must be tried. Prime rib is perfection. There are a variety of sandwiches I'd recommend but the Butchy's Express is my fave. And try the Greek specialties. I've not had a bad meal from their kitchens ever. Tell them Kelly sent you!

Rusty Nail Saloon

Reviewed By David908

Because of a mix up they were not expecting 50 of us to show up for continental breakfast on Sunday. Within 1/2 hour the staff put together a very good buffet breakfast with fruit, scrambled eggs, hash browns, French toast, pancakes and bacon. I was impressed.

Yesterday we were out on a family excursion, no plans to go to the bar/restaurant. When we realized that there was a fast moving storm approaching we decided to park the boat and take refuge at Blarneys. We had our Dog with us and I was, as you could expect, FREAKING OUT. I was afraid they wouldn’t let us stay because Sammie was with us. Olivia quickly calmed me down and assured me that they would never turn anyone away in a situation like that. I will forever remember the kindness and compassion of Olivia and all the waitstaff/bartenders. We ended up spending a few hours there and it was sooo fun. Music, food, even gift shop. I will be back for sure! Thanks Olivia and all the staff that made an effort to stop and say hello. You made my day! She is our biggest baby.

Called in on way back to airport. What a find it was. Waitress and owner were brilliant, tried to teach them a bit about English breakfasts lol. Food was excellent, probably the best breakfast on this trip. Next time we are passing will definitely call again next time we are passing. Top marks for food and hospitality Thank You

Brit's Street Bar & Sandwiches

Reviewed By HMS66

Thought I'd stop by to pick up some sandwiches and soups for a group of 5. The website and front door say they open at 10:30. I got there at 10:45 and although the advertising and open sign lights were on the door was locked. Drove around for 15 minutes and went back at 11:00. Still locked up. Don't know if they've closed down for good but if not, it sure would be nice if they'd open up at least close to their advertised time. Lost out on about $60-$70 there guys....

Route 12 Bar & Grill

Reviewed By JFLovestravel51

I've been in this bar/restaurant twice in the last month or so! The burger had me coming back for another! Yum! The buttered and toasted bun is what does it...I think! The first time I got the tots, which were delicious, and the second time I ordered the fries. The fries I didn't like so much, but that's because they are fresh cut which I know I don't really care for. Tasted a little dirt in the fries too...gotta wash the potatoes better. I hope the "bacon shortage" is over soon, cuz I'm going back!! Great place to grab a bite to eat!

Ordered Garden omelette. Pretty big. Came with my favorite hashbrown casserole and toast. Ordered on phone but called 6 times because I kept getting weird message to enter code. Finally got thru and my husband picked it up at their drive thru window. Always good food and service here.
