Just fantastic. Their selection is great, their service is quick and everything my family and I have gotten from there has been fantastic. Prices are fine, and they always seem to have specials going.

I had a repair tech come to my home and I didn’t want my dog jumping on him so I let my dogs in the yard for a minute to let him get settled in. When I looked back in the yard my dog penny had dug under the gate freighters by thunder in the distance! I heard her knock on the front door and ran to her but she already was spooked and made her way down the street. Alessia was on her way to a delivery and stopped everything she was doing to help me get penny in the car. Penny was so scared of the thunder and I was so overwhelmed that penny could get hurt. Alesia saved my dog and my heart. Thank you a million times.

DELICIOUS!! The staff and owner were so friendly and accommodating. This is a perfect spot for lunch and dinner and the food is top-notch. We got the “hot honey pizza” of the month and a fresh and crunchy chicken salad. I highly recommend this small family-owned business. Support local.

Two friendly neat services and when finished packed everything up, said good bye to us and left. A big thank you to Shelly and Lou, family and staff.

Yum yum yum! Wow! Fantastic food. I had a spinach calzone. Diane a stromboli which was delicious. I highly recommend these guys and the portions are great. Worth missing Philadelphia when coming back from Atlantic City. Off Route 40 near corner of Main. A must stop.
