Busy Bee Cafe
Busy Bee Cafe Review
A local favorite for decades, this classic 1950s diner has a jukebox on every table and serves hearty burgers and comfort food (think meat loaf and mashed potatoes, pot roast, and Cobb salad). For breakfast, tuck into a huge omelet; for a snack or dessert, order a shake or hot fudge sundae from the soda fountain.
