Excellent Americana food! Large portions, fairly priced. The service is the fastest- that’s why it’s called Sparks. I’m partial to the specials and the cheesecake is next level!!

Cash only. Only open to 3pm. Breakfast any time they say. Food was acceptable, service very good, busy and well liked in the area. Bathrooms small an busy when they are. Pictures show open times and old fire truck out in parking lot. Pictures an old fire patches inside.

Jacob and his team consistently hit it out of the park. This is my 3rd time since new ownership. Quality ingredients. Gluten free buns. Homemade soups. These people have the passion and they care. In a business that’s hard to please everyone they are bending over backwards to do so. Prices are fair with Senior and kids pricing as well. Give them a shot. Coffee is above average. The oatmeal is really good too. I can’t believe I just typed that - the oatmeal part.

The ultimate small-town restaurant! Friendly service with unique personalities. I ordered a Denver omelet with hash browns and wheat toast....I literally got my delicious food in 2 minutes and 53 seconds....no joke!

husband and I stopped in to this place as a last min decision while passing by while out discovering nature trails. We actually did a U turn , ha! Glad we did. Love the old school diner atmosphere, great prices, good food, excellent big cup of coffee to warm us up on this Fall day. Our waitress was Super sweet and friendly (wish I got her name) she was great. We will definitely go here again when we are in the area.

Cute little “hole in the wall” I’m from out of state just passing through. And was looking for breakfast and coffee. Both were amazing. And the pricing is fair. Has a 50s atmosphere with 80s music which I love! Only thing I’d change is the server being more attentive. She was a little busy but not to busy were the other server and the bus boy refilled my coffee each time. I really hope she shares the tip. Overall fantastic and if I ever find myself here again I’ll definitely be back!
