Delicious breakfast! Standard fare done well: eggs, omelettes and biscuits and gravy. Extra special menu items: Eggs Benedict with fried green tomatoes instead of meat. THE BEST corned beef hash around (according to those who are fans.) Always a quiche on the menu and full bar with bloody mary and mimosa specials on the weekends.
