Richard...sounds like a quaint place to dine. I will bet very low key and great Food!
Bill...
It's a nice place that's not expensive and a great spot for a business lunch!
The small little places are usually very inviting to most people. Keeps them relaxed when you talk business
YUM! I want come visit on a Thursday. Homemade Fried Chicken sounds wonderful right now. Of course the salmon patties sound good too.
And now I am hungry...
You gotta love a good down home restaurant, and this sounds like a good one.

Ann
This place just looks so inviting and charming. I am getting hungry
Richard-That place looks very homey and the talk of all that food is making me hungry and it is too late to eat anything unless I want nightmares. You are getting closer each day to that goal of yours. Keep up the awesome blogging. You do realize what your 500th will have to be about don't you. I'll let you think about that one. You are a smart fellow I know you'll figure it out. Til next time take care & keep smiling, keep blogging and always keep the faith.
Richard - that certainly deserved a Localism feature - terrific...........:-) I'll be awaiting your comment...:-)
Richard... that's what we used to call stick-to-your-ribs eatin'. Congratulations on the feature!
I would like to try the Meatloaf today, but if I added in the gas for a round trip it would break me! We are losing are little Ma and Pa places down here to all the fancy chain stores.
Liz...
I will do so as soon as I can!
Ann...
It is nice, and minutes from the office!
Anne...

Pat...
It's all of my friends here at AR that hold me accountable that motivates me!
Liz...
I was surprised by the feature, but I'll take it! lol
Darin...
Those local spota are always the best! THX
I love Country Fried Steak, biscuits and gravy, dumplings, etc. I love Southern Cooking. Unfortunately in the North the only place you can get some sort of southern cooking is Deny's (country fried steak) LOL & Cracker Barrel. By the way Deny's closed so I guess thats out. I remember when you could get fried chicken livers at Kentucky Fried Chicken down south. Can you still? Looks like a nice place.
Richard- what a lovely localism post! So it's meatloaf for lunch today....sounds great! I'll meet you there at noon!
Thats my kind of place and Salmon Patties Hmmm.
Congrats on the Feature Richard.
Lisa...
The last time I looked, you caould still get livers at KFC! And Cracker Barrel has GREAT biscuits!
Lori...
Did you forget that we are on Eastern time? I waited, but you didn't show up! lol
Cameron...
I will be there on Friday ..and I will pass on the results of my taste tests!
This sounds like a wonderful place. Wish we had a place just like it close by to us.
Richard...
Let's go this Friday. I love salmon patties! lol
Richard,
Minutes from the office? You are so lucky.
Ann
Richard: I am a big fan of Sprayberry's BBQ in Newnan I think. I discovered them years ago (before they opened the new restaurant by the freeway) when I was working on a film 'Pet Semetary 2'. We were living in Peach Tree City and filming in Senoia and other sites around Atlanta. Some of the GOBs on the crew took me there. Now whenever we fly to Atlanta to visit my in-laws, we make a long detour from the airport to pick up some 'outside slice' to enjoy with the family. Thanks for the other recommendations. I hope I will get a chance to try them.
Love the place..... Gotta love the South. Keep up the good work..
Very nice post. This is an excellent way of showing off our favorite places.
Richard,
Great article and lovely pictures. You are so sweet to showcase us. We have been blessed by all of our customers who are so gracious and appreciative. With the economy the way it is, we value every opportunity to get the word out!!!! Thanks again! Claire
I love Claire's. It is the best meat & veggie restaruant in Newnan. Love the fresh vegetables. I love the macaroni and cheese and sweet potato casserole. The fried chicken and country fried steak are the best! Great place for parties!
