The best place I've eaten as far back as I can remember. Food size was huge, fresh, hot and all made to please! Anyone ever Idaho and go anywhere near there I strongly suggest you stop. You will not be disappointed. I drive over the road and got lucky I found this place.

Friendly and quick service. Good mom & pop style diner. Prices are great and everything is homemade. The only negative was the chicken tenders were over breaded and a bit too hard. We will be back to try the chicken noodle soup that’s available on sundays!

Service is very fast and welcoming. We really enjoyed the Old Style Parky with home cut fries. The corn chowder was a nice surprise and very tasty! Highly recommend.

Our first time in. It was great one of our favorites close to our new home. Staff is very friendly and welcoming and food is amazing. Great portions and prices. They do a lot for the community as well and have a lot of regulars that rave about the place. We will definitely go back!!!!

We go there every Monday because of George our cook and love the breakfast menu. Also have ate the potato soup. One of my favorites. I usually do take out with the soup. Great cook, good waitresses and great homie atmosphere. Love it when you find a favorite cook and can continue to go back and have the same cook and a great meal. I recommend the breakfast menu and the soups. ❤️

Road Trip Find 🍳🥓🥩We got off the exit to charge and stumbled on this little gem. Breakfast did not disappoint—French toast and bacon were both delicious, and the steak was tender and cooked perfectly. Jill was an awesome server too. Definitely a spot we’d come back to if we pass through again!

Very good food and great staff. Also, they have great parking for truckers. To my fellow drivers out here on the road, check this place out - it's a hidden gem - and please, please, -- let's keep this place clean so we can have some comforts of home out on the road.Also, i want to thank the local Christian community and churches -- when checking out, i noticed a sign about free meals paid for by the community of Heyburn for anyone who is hungry but unable to pay. Thank you for sharing Christ's love and compassion.
