My husband, two kids under 5, and in-laws came here on a Sunday. They only serve the buffet on Sunday, with no regular menu. The food was great, and they had a soft serve ice cream machine that was a hit with my son. The price of the buffet was very reasonable. For my family, it was about 30. The service could be improved. She would walk away while we were asking for something. She was respondsive and quick, though. The parking lot is very large and trailer friendly.

Nice little place to eat. They have a small buffet on Sunday that isn't too bad but very simple. Ample room to park a semi in the parking lot.

Stopped for breakfast on our trip home from Omaha really glad we did. Staff was super friendly the coffee was delicious and our cups were never empty. The chicken fried steak breakfast was very hot,very plentiful and very good. Beat the heck out of cracker barrel. They sure make you feel welcome, definitely give them a try. Plus they have gas and diesel.
