Out shopping for holiday gifts and my husband found two great picks. A blackberry moonshine and a wine. They were having a local party in the downstairs eatery area so we unfortunately didnt get to go check it out but that just means we have more reason to return! They had a turkey and pimento cheese sandwich on their menu that I want to try! Owner was a true gem. Enjoyed chatting things up and getting to know more history about the area. She was well versed in her stock of beverages. A stop you must see. They have non alcoholic items as well. Non-drinkers do not be afraid to stop in.

I had the Alexander (probably should have stopped at half way, but are the entire thing). We went back after completing our meals and ordered a 6 layer chocolate cake slice to share at home tonight with dinner. They also have a very nice shop featuring several local and/or gluten free items as well as several imported from Italy items. The gentleman running the counter when we ordered was awesome and able to answer any questions we had. The young lady that brought our food to the table was also very polite. Loved the wall artwork in the further back building's dining area. All in all a really nice experience for a Saturday lunch.

Got their meat lasagna to go, a take and bake. Was not a fan. I'll have to try the Italian one next time if in stock. They had none this day. The sandwiches were the star which is what I went for and will definitely be back. The meatball sub was messy and darn good!!! Only reason I gave 4 rather than 5 was the take and bake.

It's a small little diner but we got lucky as two people were leaving as we walked in - got 2 seats at the counter. It was awesome that they had a breakfast special, two eggs, bacon and two biscuits & gravy. It was so good and the bacon was crispy and very good. We also ordered the lunch special-double cheeseburger & fries. Got pickles and diced onions on the burger. We've been on a tour of top 10 burger places in KS-this burger would be our #1 or #2 if it were KS. It was outstanding. Everyone in the place were super nice and the counter staff made it a fun time for everyone. Great place, great staff and excellent food.

Seating is incredibly limited; like 4-5 booths, a couple tables and 8-10 or so stools at the bar. Unfortunately, walking in right at 11AM on Saturday, I was met with the greeting that "Breakfast is over, the only other place that'll have breakfast is Waffle House on the other side of town" (while the last breakfast order of eggs and bacon were being cooked right in front of me). *My disappointment is immeasurable and my day is ruined* Alas, being the good sport that I am, I rolled the dice on some chicken strips and fries along with a grilled cheese sandwich. The grilled cheese was actually good, but the chicken strips and crinkle cut fries were the standard frozen to fryer items and not really worth eating. On one hand, it's curious why they can't just do breakfast all day (or until they run out). But on the other, there was a significant number of people ready for burgers (which did look good) ready to order once breakfast switched to lunch. Maybe just chalk this up to a weird timing deal, but if you miss out on breakfast, you're kinda hosed unless you're down for a burger. If I'm ever back, I'll try to make it for breakfast since that's really what looks great here.

Investors: buy this distressed business and fix it. Serve beer and make a decent spicy BBQ sauce. Simplify the menu. Keep the servers. It was the day before Thanksgiving and it was a sunny day, so a short road trip was in order and this was the destination. I hadn't been to dear old Excelsior Springs in quite some time, so I was game. Although the tiny former train station is just another nondescript red brick building on the outside, the spacious inside has wonderful old-timey vibes, right down to the waitress in perfect 1950s drag makeup. We arrived around 2pm. It wasn't empty, so that was something. The first sign of trouble was the long menu with a lot of non-barbecue items for such a small place, including fried catfish and a fried chicken sandwich. I discounted this because my mother had been excited about the fried mushrooms. The second sign was that my parents only ordered the long ribs, even though they like brisket. Note: order what the experienced order. The ribs were fine--not too dry and falling off the bone, with a mellow smoke flavor. But it's hard to mess up ribs. My burnt ends were overcooked except for a few pieces, and a couple pieces were actually carbonized rather than caramelized. A travesty in the region responsible for the delicacy! The brisket was as others have described: dry, thinly-sliced. Decent but not exceptional flavor. Certainly not the tender, moist, barbecue brisket I was hoping for. I regretted eating any of what I ordered--it gave me a terrible stomach ache into the next day, despite skipping dinner and drinking a lot of hot mint tea. Rancid oil used for frying? Or just tough meat? Whatever, I learned my lesson! As for the rest: Fried (sliced) mushrooms -- fine, not over-salted, served with a light ranch sauce in a squeeze bottle. Easily enough for four people. Beans were sweet with some bits of pork in them. Possibly out of can. Cole slaw was extremely sweet and finely chopped, almost like a while salsa. Potato salad was good but nothing special.

As for the food, although the restaurant wasn't busy, all the food from fries to the chicken sandwich, macaroni with cheese was stone cold. My ice tea tasted of mold.
