Thanks to all who posted kind words. We'll be back soon to start our 58th season. As always, we'll strive to provide good food & service. Our first step is to call back our lovely employees from last year, and recruit some new ones.

We all found it to have delicious food and very friendly service. Would go back again. They have been in business since 1957 and still going strong. that tells you something. And gives our young people a summer job!! Great!!! Out of Dunn NC will visit them again.
