When we're open

We open at seven in the morning

We're a bar and a grill, and we're also where a good part of St. Joseph eats breakfast. The kitchen is on from seven, six days a week. On Fridays and Saturdays we stay open until midnight.

We're closed on Sundays. That's the one worth remembering before you drive over.

What people order

Big plates, and the fryer is always on

Breakfast, lunch and dinner, all off large menus. Here's what people tell us they come back for. Give us a ring if you want to know what's on today.

Wings

Somebody called them the best in town in a review last week, and we'll take it.

The Kyle burger

One of ours that people ask for by name. Add onion rings.

Catfish sandwich

Comes with a sauce. Get the fries with it.

Prime rib

A dinner plate, not a sandwich.

French dip

One somebody drove home happy about in March.

Chicken strips and catfish nuggets

Two baskets people name in the same breath.

Reuben

Marbled rye, sauerkraut, chips and a pickle spear.

Hamburger steak

Mushroom gravy, mashed potatoes, green beans and Texas toast.

Since 1997

The corner of Commercial Street

We've been serving family friendly food and drink here since 1997. Same corner, same room, and a lot of the same faces at the bar.

People tend to describe us the same way, which we'll take as a compliment: cozy, quick, friendly, and the servings are big. Come in for breakfast at seven or come in at eleven at night on a Friday. It's the same room either way.

4.6 out of 5 from 1,121 Google reviews, and 96% of 641 people recommend us on Facebook.
