  • 8 features April 28, 1999 inian Sylva's The Coffee Shop' Gets Three Forks The Food Critic visits 'The Coffee Shop.' Photo by Phoebe Esmon by Todd Higginson Food Critic It is easy to be cynical of the Sylva that has hardly changed in the past century. The Coffee Shop has been around since 1926, and has only changed ownership three times. As I sat down in a cozy booth, I felt as though I was taking a brief relaxing trip in the past—away from the nasty term papers that currently face me. The Coffee Shop is like a combination of a diner and a truck stop restaurant. The decor is appropriately country. A row of old-fashioned birdhouses lines the partition that separates two rows of booths. Posters with faces such as John Wayne adorn the walls, along with nick- knacks like old tobacco tins, retro lunch boxes, and aged license plates. With its homey feel, it is no surprise that The Coffee Shop is a favorite of the locals. Nancy, my smiling waitress seated me quickly and efficiently. My beverage was promptly delivered, and Nancy was back swiftly to take my order. The Coffee Shop is open from 6:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m. I would say that the menu is tailored to suit your breakfast and lunch needs. The Coffee Shop is small and comfortable, but you can smoke at any of the tables, so I expect that the restaurant can be uncomfortably smoky at times. This is my most significant complaint. I urge The Coffee Shop to become non-smoker friendly. According to Gary Gibson, owner, all items are made from scratch daily. Homemade items and fresh produce make for an exceptional dining experience. I ordered "The Boss"...turkey and provo- lone on a Kaiser roll served with chips and a pickle: costing only $3.25. Kitchen to table service is very expeditious.

We hope to see you at future Mountain Heritage Center events! my food in ten minutes. "The Boss" was even better than I had expected. When ordering a turkey sandwich, I assumed that I would receive chopped and pressed turkey. Instead, my sandwich consisted of thick grilled slices of turkey, melted provolone, hefty slices of ripe tomatoes, green crispy lettuce, and Thousand Island dressing, which makes for a very impressive and satisfying lunch. The Coffee Shop specializes in homemade pies. I was easily talked into trying a slice. I chose chocolate. When a large slab of warm chocolate pie landed on my table, my mouth dropped to the floor. The meringue was 4 inches high (no joking!) The pie was great and inexpensive ($1.30), and the meringue was the best I have ever tasted. As for healthy options, there are definite limits. I got a few chuckles at some of the "light" meals on the menu. The "Lite Breakfast Special" consists of 1 egg, choice of sausage or bacon, choice of grits or gravy, and biscuits or toast. The "Diet Plate" includes a hamburger steak, a sliced tomato, boiled eggs, cottage cheese, and crackers. Isn't it great to live in a health- conscious society?! The Coffee Shop is not the place for vegetarians to eat, but it is a carnivore's paradise. I asked Mr. Gibson what the most popular entree was. Gibson replied: "definitely the Grizzly Burger." The "Grizz" is 1/2 pound of beef (12 artery-clogging ounces) with bacon, lettuce, cheese, and tomatoes. That's more red meat that I eat in a month! The prices can't be beat! Most breakfast items are in the $2.50 range, and most of the lunches are in the $3.50 range. You really get a lot of food for your money, so definitely remember this when your shoestring budget breaks. All kidding aside, I encourage you to visit The Coffee Shop soon. The Coffee Shop is the Sylva experience. Enjoy! The Coffee Shop in a Nut Shell: The Good: Excellent service, outstanding prices, and good eats. The Bad: Ashtrays on every table means one thing: you may experience a lot of second-hand smoke. The Ugly: Have you noticed the deranged wooden bear carving that stands in front of the restaurant?
