“Stop by this little charming place today for lunch. Let me tell you the cheese burgers we order were awesome. A hand patty burger that actually covers the whole bun cook fresh while you wait at the sit down bar. You know a place is good when people are coming in one after the other and ordering food and they also have a drive thru that is continuously busy as well. All the employees were so kind and friendly. We will definitely stop back by on our way to the Amish. Thanks for the great service and keep it up.”
