Add a reasonable tip and your $5.00 lunch deal has now cost you $9.00. Such a deal!
Our golf group ate there Friday and I had the soup and half sandwich special and felt that it was plenty to be eating at lunch. The sandwich was the turkey club and it was anything but small. As far as the drink being~$2.00 that is true but that is also for all your refills. You drink 3-4 glasses of tea or soda then you have more than paid for it.
