The cafe itself straddles a stream that was likely used for water power. They had pastry options and some diner style hot breakfast, but I wasn't blown away by these options and (correctly) anticipated that I might prefer my food options on the other side of the mountains. However, their drink selection was quite robust for a place in a pretty rural location. I ordered a coal dust which was a mix of white and dark chocolate; I was a bit miffed that the menu didn't make it clear that it was actually a coffee drink as it could just as well have been pure hot chocolate. However, the flavor combination was ultimately successful for me. Travelers should certainly consider stopping in this location to take a look around, and why not pick up a beverage?

The stuffed hash browns are pure I-don't-care-if-I-clog-all-my-arteries genius on a plate. Fluffy eggs with melty cheese, sausage patties, and crisp bacon sandwiched between crispy hash browns, all topped with thick, peppery, country gravy. I couldn't stop eating it even when I knew I was full. The biscuit platter (country sausage style) provided similar delight, with perfect eggs and sausage smothered in cheese and a lava flow of gravy, all mounded on top of buttery, flaky biscuits. This is down home cooking at its best. Watching the staff perform their duties in perfect harmony with each other whilst observing management as the conductor and master orchestrator was a sight to behold. Bravo, Huddle House! You're doing EVERYTHING right!

The menu offers comfort food, and that depiction is spot on. I had the cheeseburger with a side of coleslaw. And following that my sister and I split a hot fudge ice cream Sunday. The cheeseburger was cooked to the right temp and the veggies on board tastes very fresh. The coleslaw was really good - I grade venues like this on simple things like coleslaw, and the coleslaw was delicious. The dessert was superb and almost over the top, if we could've finished it. The layers of cake were baked well and were t flimsy but held up while we were gathering the fudge and ice cream. The portions are ample and leave you feeling full and satisfied but not uncomfortable - unless you take on dessert. If we're ever back in town, this will be one stop we will definitely make. Enjoy!

Big mistake the service was terrible the server didn't know if she was coming or going. My food was cold and missing some food that was supposed to come with it. I told the server and the next thing I see she is walking out the door. Told another server what I was missing got tired of waiting for my food so we went to pay the bill for what my husband got which isn't nothing to brag about. The manager did take my food off the bill which he should have. This is one place I won't be back to.
