Jack: Your still can't go wrong with James griddling up a half-stack of Silver Dollar Pancakes and don't forget the Huckleberries. Beyond that it's pretty regular diner breakfast fare. The eggs are fresh and not out of a mystery pitcher. The omelets are decent. And, they serve the (in)famous Joe's Special with its burger, spinach and onion goodness. Hash browns have a good amount of crisp (they used to be undercooked most mornings). They offer up cheese and sausage gravy on just about everything (yikes!). And beware of the "Go-go-juice" or as some might call it, coffee. Their coffee has improved as they are now serving Craven's Coffee, and the first cup or two taste great. The rest may haunt your morning--I think it's how they brew the coffee. Oh, and, don't bring your important documents, they're bound to get splashed with the ever-flowing coffee, or set in a coffee drip.
