Found this little spot on Google while visiting from our of town. I'm from the South, and to my surprise they had sweet tea!!!! Granted, it was bottled Pure Leaf tea, but it was better than unsweetened tea with sugar sitting in the bottom of the glass! Food was good, atmosphere was down home and friendly. The dining area was filled with locals, sitting around chatting, kind of a Cheers type vibe! I'd go back when visiting again.
