I got the Cowboy Burger meal. It was $14. The burger was roughly a one pound burger and absolutely delicious. I highly recommend it.

Stopped in when passing through. Does not seem like much in the area. Saw the Cottage Cafe and gave it a try. Onion rings were over cooked and just shocked for the price of the sandwich that a side was not included.
