Reserve your Thanksgiving Turkeys

Bees Knees Cafe
We had an extraordinary day last Saturday. It seemed that every one decided to come to the cafe that rainy day, and not a single reservation.  We thought the cafe would be slow, but we were very wrong!  It was the busiest day of the year so far, and we were short staffed.  We were swamped. Every chair, every table inside and out was full.  People sat under the umbrellas in the rain. Several people hoped for our pulled pork, and we ran out before they got there. So we put it back on the menu this week.  Now you have to choose between Pulled Pork and a Bacon, Lettuce and Tomato Sandwich!  We so greatly appreciate the patience everyone showed, waiting to be served.  Thank you, thank you!
