Food Scene

John, Kim and their staff are the absolute best! I always order Dads Crunchy Chicken, Pepper Jack Mac and a side salad with their home made dressing! The menu has many other choices and they are all delish! Their iced tea is wonderful and Graham Central ice-cream is not only AMAZING it is made locally. The restaurant includes a lovely bar nestled toward the rear in the East dining area. When weather permits, their outdoor seating area is lovely.

Drinks & Nightlife

Yummy Local Craft Beers and delicious sandwiches, etc. My favorite is the "Rumplestiltskin Porter" with a "Pegasus" sandwich and chips! You can also sit outside. They are also known for their IPA's.
