    This location is an old Bobs Big Boy. The decor is aged but clean. The breakfast menu was varied. Had their weekly daily breakfast special eggs, bacon/sausage, potatoes or pancake . Spouse had crepes. Prices are great for the specials Food was good Service was good Location seemed to cater to Seniors. I would return and try other items offered.

    I love this location!! When I'm in the mood to relax n watch sports or horse racing, I come here!! Also when there is a sporting event to watch n I'm feeling hungry, I come here! Either way it's always a great vibe, great food, n great atmosphere. You can listen to some good bands here n meet some nice people. Please check it out! You can play keno or bet on some horse races or meet your friends here for lunch. Great menu n prices that don't break the bank.

    Had a great time singing at Sammy's tonight. I opened with "My Way" by Sinatra and finished with "I can't help falling in love with you" by Elvis. The ambiance was positive and upbeat, and the service was fantastic. Kathleen was a terrific bartender/server and all-around person. I enjoyed her kindness and professionalism. The food is nothing to write home about, but the drinks, service, and people are cool. A great little bar, and they have horse racing, pool tables, and live music. Recommended.
