Twilight Zone? Maybe. But some of those episodes were pretty cool. My husband and I camped nearby and usually dine out our first evening. I happened upon this place and curiosity lured me in. It literally is an old high school. Mom greeted us at the door, the bar patrons smiled as we entered and we found a spot for the two of us with our doggo. Our dog was served first and we ordered from the bar. The food was really good. Kind of like down home cafeteria vibe. That makes no sense. But you will see when you get here. We dined, had conversation with Mom and the table next to us. We laughed and relaxed and left feeling welcome with a book to read from the take one/leave one. We will be back to leave a book and support this neat little place.

Christina and Roger make this already interesting place even more fun. They have 19 beers on tap and excellent food. Ask Roger anything about a chemical and he can make it an interesting answer. Great conversation. You must check it out.

My friend and I were driving through the area from OH to PA and stopped to the restaurant when we were hungry and somewhat lost. We were so glad we did. The owner was very friendly and she spent time getting to know us. My sandwich was delicious and my can of beer was ice cold. Highly recommend if you’re in the area!
