This place is a great place to eat if you are near Stayton! Breakfast is awesome, lunch is even better! The bacon! Big, thick pieces of bacon served with eggs is so good! The loaded potato was awesome and the cheeseburger was cooked perfectly and was juicy! The staff was great and the atmosphere was cute! Even the side salad was more than what we expected! Everything was so good!

Cute place! I loved all the covered bridge images on the walls! I’ve been wanting to try this place for awhile and since we were already in Stayton we decided to get breakfast. The Crunchy French Toast was so good I didn’t even use the syrup, the cinnamon roll icing was enough! All our meals came with huge slices of bacon that was made perfectly. Husband got the Country Breakfast and ate it all! Barely anyone else there on a Tuesday morning lol. Coffee was good, always filled up, and service was excellent! We will definitely be back!

The service was a bit slow but the staff was friendly and the food was excellent. They happily split an omlette between my son and I, the hash browns were cooked perfectly and the omlette was the fluffiest I've ever seen. Would definitely recommend, but plan to relax, and enjoy the atmosphere if they are a bit busy!

Staff are consistantly polite even the younger staff. Always respectful and check in to make the meal is good and that we do not need anything else. They have the best bacon. Thick meaty slices with very minimal fat. Food is always cooked to our liking. Small local restaurant... with a mix of a home like feel and a dash of a fancier restaurant. The burger buns with a cute branding on the top bun. I always get the breakfast choices no matter what time we go.

we went to the bridge for lunch with some family from out of town and everyone was OBSESSED with the food! My girls said “this is the best restaurant ever”. We don’t eat out often so this was a great treat for everyone! Also your staff was amazing! ❤️ food was hot and tasty as heck!

My first visit here per locals recomendation and boy, am I glad that I did! Good food, friendly service and charming atmosphere! Clean, delightful place in the heart of Stayton, Oregon. I had the Two Egg breakfast . . with extra crispy hashbrowns, english muffin and two poached eggs. I highly recomend giving this place a try when you're out this way. Old school charm, vibe and food. Very happy visit. I will try the biscuits & gravy with some bacon, next time. They come highly recomended.

These guys were great. We had a big party for breakfast and through no fault of them our reservation was accidentally cancelled. They all worked their tails off to make sure we were all taken care of. The food was excellent as always. The staff’s great attitude and willingness to take us in with no reservation turned what could have been a bad situation into a great experience. Thank you so much!

Coming in toward Salem from the canyon we googled diners in Stayton. Decided on this place and boy was it a great decision! My wife and I had country fried steak breakfast and when the plates came... Oh my what a ton of food. We have been to many diners but after eating, this one went to the top of our list. The food was delicious, the service was excellent! My coffee cup never went below half full before our server was there to top it off. I only gave them 5 stars because I couldn't give more. You will not be disappointed! Coming back soon and trying their bacon which is their specialty.

Well today was our second time coming to this restaurant. It was extremely busy, but well worth the wait! The bacon it to DIE for! The biscuits and gravy were amazing (coming from someone with a southern grandmother that made them daily by scratch!!). My husband’s steak was well done as requested. We come from Salem and are willing to make the drive for a perfect brunch!
