This restored 1957 dinner serves breakfast all day, along with lunch, dinner, drinks, and a late night menu served until 1 or 2 am. The full menu has a variety of comfort food choices from pot pie to fish and chips. One of their specialties are the Hi-Tops, savory fried dough with all sorts of toppings that make a full meal. Nice deck for outdoor seating, but no reservations, and expect a wait during busy times like lunch, dinner, and weekends.
