It's a small diner style restaurant, very well executed. We had heard from friends how good this place was but this was our first visit, a Friday at the end of March Break. Got there about 12:30 and despite almost all 30 seats being full, we had our food a little after 1. The fries were excellent as was the crispy chicken burger special. Pictured is the regular Turkey Club. Great bacon & cheddar slice. If you like lots of mayo, ask for extra.And the DONUTS! Warm, sugar dusted & delicious.

Low key, the best breakfast I have ever had. A small cozy place which filled up fast on a Friday morning, but we got a seat no problem. The pancake was fluffy, the maple syrup was warm, the hash browns were crisp, the eggs were over easy, the doughnuts were fresh and hot!(And they actually have copper spoons.) The service was friendly and warm and playful. Highly recommended little nook!

Excellent food and clean friendly atmosphere! We will be back. My 5year old couldn’t believe how good his waffle was and loved everything he sampled from my plate. He also says we are going back for sure

Great place to eat. French toast almost done even after my daughter ate already. Clubhouse gone even after having a full breakfast, lattice fries and burgers are so delicious. Affordable to boot.Thank you Kerry from #campcherokee for reccomend this place.

Must try hidden gem and not to be missed. The friendliest MOST delightful little spot. Food is fantastic. Must try is the Loaded Benedict with the cubed hasbrowns. By far better than any other Benedict I have ever eaten. We also had the pancakes which were fluffy and flavorful.Then if that couldn’t be better, they end your meal with a fresh and piping hot mini donut! 10 out of 10! Well worth the drive from anywhere.

I LOVE this restaurant.First of all, GREAT customer service. The mother & her little son as the servers. Really fun energy to be around especially when the little son is giving you the cutlery & desserts & cleaning up the tables after. Really fun company to be around. Great energy from the other people that go here especially the family. Local spot with a great selection of food. The Green Smoothie was PERFECT, vegetarian is all that I can ask for today. The Rye Bread with the sweet pink sauce is so nice. The Ultimate Skillet didn't impresss me but I'm very grateful for having tried it once. Nice home family vibes. That's what makes this place so awesome. Thank you Copper Spoons!
