    Biscuits and Gravy with 2 eggs
    Tina G.

    Yuuumm! So glad I came here! Three of us went and it's a cute little place with a great Breakfast! We started with the Cinnamon Streusel Muffin. It comes with the butter but I'd skip it next time. It's so tasty it doesn't need it. I loved the Breakfast Sandwich. The over medium eggs had a perfect cook, the bacon is thick and the roll is soft. Sooo tasty and not too big. I want it again! My hubby had the Bacon & Egg combo. He said it was all good except the potatoes were flavorless and needed salt and seasoning. Mom had the biscuits & gravy with two eggs. They have good gravy. Nice flavor balance! They have a tight parking lot for a big pickup truck and not much street parking. The staff is really friendly. I can't wait to try more of their menu!

    This small home style diner was extremely busy when we arrived, and parking was very limited but the food made it completely worth it. My favorite item was the cinnamon streusel muffin, served warm with butter melting on top. It honestly tasted like heaven. Despite how packed the place was, the service was outstanding. The staff was incredibly kind, our food came out quickly, and they were great about refilling drinks and coffee. Such a cute, welcoming diner. I would definitely come back.

    First time trying this restaurant nice service I choose a turkey sandwich because it was $8.95 with chips Most everything on the menu is $17 or more and the portions looked huge I'd come again when in the area for a breakfast which looks amazing

    Coffee cake

    Amazing service, hot coffee, hot food, fast! And the coffee cake ohh the coffee cake. I would come here just for that.

    Small town feel diner with huge portions. The staff is friendly and the food quality and service is excellent. Pricing is on point for quality, quantity, and selection. Parking can be a pain, but worth waiting for a space or finding one off site.

    Anyone know if I you can order from them via one of the food delivery services?

    They do not have that option. Its pick up only.

    When did they start closing on Sundays?

    I believe it was several months ago. One of my friends let me know and I called Clarkies to confirm. Everyone deserves a day off and there are plenty of other places to go.

    Gluten free cinnamon streusel?

    I don't know but it'll be worth the upset stomach 😃

The last few times we've gone, the service has been extremely slow, even when it didn't seem overly packed, which made the whole experience feel dragged out. The food is still decent, but it's nothing out of this world anymore, just pretty basic compared to how I remember it. That said, my favorite dish is still the skillet with turkey, avocado, and bacon. It's a solid option and probably the one thing that keeps me coming back to give it another shot. They've changed the decor slightly over the years, and there's a nice little gift shop section right as you walk in, which adds some charm and gives it a cozy feel. The staff has always been nice and friendly, so no complaints there. I just wish the overall experience matched how good this place used to be, because it definitely had something special before.

There's always a good vibe especially by the bar and our server was really nice too. I ordered the fish and shrimp tostada this time around and they aren't stingy with the ceviche or the avocado. It was very good and satisfying. My hubby ordered the mojarra frita which is the exact same thing he ordered last time because that's what brought us here in the first place!

You get in line and pay twice, once for drinks and again for pastries. It's great to support local, independent businesses and hopefully the arrangement is working out well for both of them. There are small tables with stools to sit on around the side of the counter on the way to the gender-neutral restroom at the back of the shop. The tables are a bit small but it leaves a wide aisle and clearly communicates that the building is accessible for folks who use wheelchairs. The hum of the oven fans creates white noise in the background and there is music playing but not distractingly loud. I find it easy to get work done here. There is free wifi, ask at the counter for the QR code or password.
