Save the date!

Our annual Dine-to-Donate event to help raise funds for the Colon Softball Team will be held on May 2, 8am-close. The team gets to keep any donations raised throughout the day AND 10% of the proceeds! More business = bigger total donation for the team. Bring a friend and join us for fun, laughter, and great food!

(Previously known as Dawn & Phil's Cafe) We are rated 8 out of 35 St. Joseph County, MI restaurants on *TripAdvisor!

With one 1-star review from 2017, lowering our overall rating, we understand the atmosphere is not everyone's cup of tea...BUT it's surely a place like no other! They did include, 'In fairness, the locals love it, feel at home there and congregate there.'

Whether you're a loyal customer or someone looking to check out new places, come eat with us! Open daily 5:00am-2:00pm.

If you feel so inclined, we sure would love more updated reviews!

*Also rated on USA Restaurants (5.0), Restaurantji (4.9), Google (4.7), and Yelp (4.5) out of 702 reviews!
