    Food was great, but pricey for a quick lunch. Many of us ended up using the self serve order stations because employees were having trouble taking 1 person's order.

    Well, I ran through the drive through, so I can't really speak to the atmosphere, but it's Autumn Squash Salad season and that's the only soup I actually like, so I got some and yep it was yummy.

    This is always a great place to hangout and talk with friends when you go dutch. They have great soups, salads, sandwiches and my favorite is the Pecan braid pastry. I have met people here to have a meal and a quick meeting. Not for a board meeting just one on one. They have great beverage options too, coffees, teas and soda. I used to like their potato soup but they got rid of that, so instead I always get their broccoli cheddar. This location is on Knoxville on your way toward the Dunlap area.
