This use to be the best breakfast place in the country! A great place to go after the bar closes to eat good food and meet up with old friends, however, the last 3 times I ate there the sausage gravy tasted like paste! No flavor at all!
It has the same owners, so I think its just a different cook. It was so bad that I gave them 3 tries to get it back to its good old self. It never happened, so I will not return!
I am not alone in this opinion! Please Country Boy, we love you. We want the good breakfast you use to have, the good gravy too!

A bit pricey for the area, but they're open 24 hours and serve Breakfast at any time. My personal fave, the CBH Special, a patty of fried corned beef hash, two eggs, hashbrowns and half an order of biscuit n gravy.

In the summer, they created a patio out front. Sure, you're looking at 9 mile in Hazel Park, but it's nice to sit in the sun to eat breaky.

Typical greasy spoon, the 'smoking section' is the middle booths and the bar area. Has enough space to not be smelling smoke the entire meal is somebody lights up. Luckily this will be a moot point after May 1st, 2010!

Only reason I didn't give them 5 eggs, they don't really have a daily specials list, so it can get a bit boring after awhile.
