As we got to the end of the Natchez Trace we were all getting hungry. We were not sure where to go and we had no GPS so we just headed to Nashville. We figured we would just go look till we found something. Eric saw a sign for a gas station so we turned that way figuring we would get some drinks and a snack. Well we took the turn and there it was. The Loveless Cafe. I had this on my Pinterest board to go eat at and we had seen it on TV before. All Eric had to hear was that they claimed to have the best biscuits and he was parked in the parking lot.
We had about an hour to wait till we were able to get seated so we went to walk around. We stopped in this little shop there and 3 of the kids got these bacon suckers everyone was walking around eating. Zoey got the chocolate covered one. I tried it. Ummmmm what are people thinking? It was nasty. It tasted like sweet bacon bits. No thanks. The kids liked them though and everyone else seemed to so whatever. I just won't be doing that again. I got a few homemade caramels and they were good. Little Eric has this HUGE oreo rice krispy treat that was super yummy and gooey.

We had to hid in the car for a bit because it was poring but it stopped just before it was our turn to get seated. Shortly after we sat down the famous biscuits came out. There were more on the plate but everyone grabbed them before I could snap a picture. You can tell I had to take this picture fast before they were all gone. The biscuits were good. Eric said they were not the best he had ever had but they were up there. William said it was defiantly worth the wait and he HATES waiting. The jams though....OH. MY. GOSH! That apricot one there was THE BOMB! I could have eaten the whole thing.
The famous biscuits after the kids grabbed them all.
It didn't take long for the food to come out and it was very good. We all enjoyed it and ate it up. It was definitely worth the wait and the drive out there. Eric managed to order dessert though I am not sure how he had any room in his belly.
My dinner. Chicken fried steak, gravy, sweet potatoes, and the BEST hashbrown casserole I have had in a LONG LONG time.
Eric got 3 meats. He choose hot chicken, meatloaf, and bbq pork. He said it was all very good. You can see he got the hashbrown casserole too and green beans.
Little Eric of course got a buffalo chicken sandwich. The kid is 90% hot sauce and chicken.
The dessert. Pecan Pie. Once again people could not wait for me to get the picture first. It had a touch of cinnamon in it and it really made a difference. I will have to do that from now on when I make pecan pie.
Overall we really enjoyed our meal. They were really helpful with Ashton's peanut allergies and made sure we knew all the precautions and what might be cross contaminated. The wait staff was good as well and they were always moving. There is quite a wait even at 3 in the afternoon so if you want to go, go early or expect to wait quite a while. I think it is worth the wait though. The atmosphere is great and I wish the rain had held off so we could have looked around more. We planned to walk more after dinner but by the time we were done we were stuffed and not in the mood to walk around.
