This by far is the worst meal I have ever eaten. I wish I could run this place for 1 week and teach them what real food is to sell..I ended up eating french fries and lettuce for my supper. And they need to teach the waitresses not to call everyone “Hon” at least 10 times….If you like this food you obviously have not had a good down home cooked meal.

We just had breakfast there today. The scrapple was not pork but beef and had an awful liver flavor. The sirloin steak was not worth the money and did not come medium as ordered, but well done. We also found out that the sausage is turkey sausage and the ham is turkey ham. Apparently the owner is from another country and does not do pork.

Have only been there for breakfast. For the service and price there is nothing better in Carlisle that I know of. Wished it were closer to our home (and it would get even more business from us).

Management here really cares! Good food at a good price. When you go, say hello to Jose, the hardest working person on the staff.

Went here today for breakfast for the first and last time! Food was OK, not stellar, service SUCKED! Waitress took our order for drinks, went to 2 other tables that sat after us, took them all their drinks first, then finally brought one of our drinks, then about 5 mins later returned with the drinks for the other 2 at our table. Will return to our usual diner for the service and food!
