Well, I have to admit, we didn't really know about the "Lunch House."
A really nice fella named "Reese" told us about this place when we were eating some barbecue at another joint. (Buddy's)
Let me say, the menu is not
I tried the fried chicken liver and 2 sides with fried cornbread. My friend had the meatloaf- we both loved our lunch and will be back. Great atmosphere (I love local dives) and friendly staff!
I'm homesick for my hometown of Albemarle NC now. Right here in the middle of DT Knoxville sits this 1932's house turned mom n pops cafe with a lunch counter, old school cash register & they go old school on handwriting all your orders. Full of farmers, guys in overalls, construction workers and old
Great food, great service. They are right next to the zoo and the Muse Museum so very convenient for visitors to those places, but the service trucks filling the lot showed us that this would be a good place to eat.
They accommodated our large group easily and were fast and friendly. Young and old a
Super friendly local restaurant. They had room for our party of four kids and five adults, don't let the small seating area up front fool you like it did me, plenty of room in back. Get the tator tots, they are delicious.
CASH ONLY. We asked three locals where to go for brunch and they each started off by asking "you got cash?" No joke: check the menu to see whivh days they do chicken & dumplings. They make it from scratch and we saw locals come in for their to-go orders. The taste is worth it! Our waitress explained
I've ate there over 100 times and I've never had a bad meal. Everything is good. My favorite is chicken and dumplins on Wednesdays. Steak and gravy is my other usual. Catfish is 2nd to none.
Home cooked scratch food. The friendliest staff and great atmosphere. It's like stepping in a time machine to the 1950's. It is by far my favorite place to eat and the prices are extremely fair.
