The walls, adorned with old photographs and hints of family history, envelop you in a warm, lived-in feeling that echoes generations of shared meals and gatherings.
This cozy family restaurant feels less like a commercial spot and more like an extended home kitchen, where every corner carries a personal touch. The atmosphere encourages easy conversation and a relaxed enjoyment of simple pleasures—a cup of freshly brewed coffee, ample plates served with care, and the quiet delight found in unexpected details like golden scones paired with honey butter. It’s these subtle, thoughtful signatures that make your visit linger in memory.

This is a quaint little place Santaquin. The environment is fun a d interesting, the service friendly, and the food was fantastic. We started with huge scones that came with meal in lieu of toast! I was just traveling through and stopped because it looked nice. I will be back.

Five minutes off the freeway is another world, even in Utah. Family to the max. The waitress didn't know what sourdough bread was! They had to make coffee just for me. Basic breakfast. Ample portions. So cute. I left a huge tip. My second visit the following year was similar, but this time, they did have coffee already brewed. When I declined toast and potatoes from my order, the friendly waitress recalculated the prices from the al a carte menu and charged a lower price. Good show. Another huge tip.

Fun place with lots of history. They say it is haunted but nothing crazy on our visit (to bad). The kids had fun and the food is good. The scones are the real treat here i would go back for scones any day. If you are looking for something a bit different this is a fun place to stop by and grab a bite

Historical and fun. The ambiance is filled with old photos of the owner’s ancestors, which feels nostalgic. The food was extremely delicious- made from scratch! The scones with the honey butter were heavenly. Our waitress was so friendly and told us about the history, which is very interesting! Also, this restaurant has a haunted reputation: they give tours on Saturday nights around 9 pm. You pay about $40, get dinner and a tour of the whole place, including the basements (there are 2). It’s been featured on a few paranormal shows, so if you’re into that, check this place out!
