My hubby had the Horseshoe Skillet with eggs over easy, sausage and toast. i had the Grilled Chicken sandwich with Swiss cheese and sauteed onions on marbled rye with a side of sweet potato fries.

It's not much to look at when you pull up, a small building between a gas station and hotel. Parking lot was mostly empty and most tables were empty when we arrived. We were greeted by two staff and told to sit anywhere. There is a large menu with a specials sheet - breakfast items on the special ranged from $7-12 dollars. Menu had a wide range of food options - diner feel. We ordered the pancakes and egg, 2 eggs, has brown and toast and Denver omelet special. Breakfast arrived quickly in about 8-10 minutes and was hot! Food was diner style perfect - affordable and plentiful. Eggs were delicious, and cooked to order. Lots of hash browns that were golden and crispy. There were three huge pancakes on my son's plate - he only got through one. Our meal for three people was $29! Can't beat it.

Excellent experience! I ordered the fried catfish with the loaded hash browns and onion petals…read more Very tasty! I tried the fried okra and they were ok. My first time trying okra and I know my friend loves Cracker Barrel's fried okra. So it's probably me. Just not to my taste. But what added to our culinary experience and made it enjoyable was the attendant for our table. Her name is Jordan. She has brown hair and was friendly and diligent. She was quick to get our order and very helpful with our questions. While we were eating, I also saw her not only sweeping up after messy patrons, and not only wiping down the tables, but also conscientiously wiping the salt and pepper shakers, etc... It was refreshing to see such a hard worker during a lull in the business day. My husband and I travel many times a month and so we eat out frequently. Many times, we've seen workers going in the back and we end up waiting a long time for service. Or they're more engaged on their phones or chatting with one another so they don't notice the customers. I get it, it's a long day for them. We wanted to give Jordan her props as well as the cooks that day. Like I said, the food was excellent and the people manning the gift shop were very nice. We'll definitely be back!

The braised beef is so tender and I love that it came with carrots, grape tomatoes that are well seasoned. The red skin potatoes as well as corn on the cob was also a nice carb addition. I asked for a soup spoon to slurp all that delicious juice. Corn muffins are still on point. The watermelon lemonade and lemonade though seem a little to strong. I've been watching my sugars lol. Our server was more than amazing. She asked if we want to split the bill and I'm glad she did as I forget this often. This is a solid visit and consistent with other CB I've been to.

It certainly provided the nourishment we needed, and we walked away with full bellies. The restaurant is open 24-7. The breakfast casserole was a nice variation with onions, green peppers and cheese cooked into the hashbrowns. We enjoyed our pancakes. The sausage patty was very thin and overcooked. The onion rings were battered fresh and crispy but they had no color or seasoning on them.
