Real beef, handmade burger, handmade curly fries. Delicious. Only open Monday - Friday but worth the trip. I didn't try the milk shakes but I heard the where good.
Today: update June17th 2022.
A Memorial to the sandwiches pictured below. I am leaving the star rating as is, because I love this place and all places like this. Local tributes to small town diners - and keeping the local economy alive.
We skipped breakfast in Springfield to specifically have lunch here. We were excited for the huge, size of a huge dinner plate pork tender and the chicken fried steak, also the size of a huge dinner plate! Plus our mouths were drooling for the huge portions of fresh cut Suzy Q fries.
Arrived placed an order for 1 pork tender sandwich and fries for us (my husband and I to split and order the chicken fried steak sandwich if we were still hungry). I could hardly contain myself paid my $8.74 + 1.26 tip. So anxious when my order was brought out to me. It seemed odd. Instead of the heavily filled styrofoam box, I received a petite, the smallest brown bag lunch sack. Maybe it was my fry bag. I peaked inside. Nope. I hurried out of the cafe. Obviously, the menu has change. No announcement. No reviews sharing the specialty sandwiches were a thing of the past. Our once scrumptious pork tender is now a 1/3 the size pictured and tasted much different than previous. The Suzy Q fries have transformed into a half sized order of crinkle cut fries. Maybe the size of a small order of McDonald's fries.
I feel a bit blindsided, the menu changed could not find any reviews or page announcements memorializing the once famous sandwiches. Menu changes to this degree are actually noteworthy. At least I would have been prepared for a petite version that tastes different and SuzyQ quit. However, I am thankful that I only ordered 1 sandwich instead of 2.
So stop by and pay your tribute to the enormous pork tender and chicken fried steak sandwiches by ordering from the snack size menu. At least you won't be surprised, taken-aback and disappointed.
I still firmly believe this is a cool little cafe so please check them out, but the sandwiches below are no longer on the menu.
Review from 2020 and 2021.
Pork tenderloin: huge. Chicken fried steak sandwich: huge. Huge portions. Friendly service! Love supporting local businesses. Added the coca cola can to give a size reference. The SusieQ's are probably pretty good. These are big as this was a small size. They were limp and greasy, so we passed. Overall, nice out of the way place on main street. Traveling? Recommend you support this local establishment.

Hands down best burgers in SE Kansas. Scrumptious! When you need a burger fix, this is the place. I love their Patty Melts with grilled onions. Onion strings or sweet potato fries..yum!

Small town dinner and had a fun chat with Bob and his wife (they are characters). The special today (chicken noodle over mash potatoes) was excellent and the chocolate shake was great!

Friendly people and the pepper jack burger, SusieQ's and root beer float were great. Bob takes a lot of pride in his work and this place is worth driving out of the way for every now and then. The prices aren't bad at all compared to fast food places and considering this food seems to be much better I'd say it's a great deal. There's a little bit of a wait because everything's made fresh but it's worth it. Looking forward to going back.

Teeny hole in the wall place in Neodesha. The burgers are huge and cooked fresh. And huge! Try the Suzie Q as a side. Fresh cut curly fries! The Reuben was great too.
I'll definitely be back.
