Boohoo about "cash only"?

Not so much!

Been to VK (and other restaurants with that policy) just one time, "cash only" keeps us away. My summer group of 4-10 each weekend will alternate who pays the tab. None of us are hitting an ATM just for that restaurant. And MOST DEFINITELY will not pay ATM fees to the owner to eat at his establishment.

Sorry, but it's 2019 out there.

The foregone benefit of the farmer's breakfast is your loss, not theirs. They have no issue putting people in the seats. I've exchanged messages with SAMIAM several times as it would be nice to pay via Venmo, Cashapp, etc. but the reality is they don't need to and if it means their prices stay reasonable (since no CC fees), I don't mind having some cash on me to cover a nominal bill (even with 4-10 people). The ATM there is a convenience, and if you're still paying ATM fees then you need to realize it's "2019 out there" and get a better checking account.

Passed the VK 2X this rainy Wed AM- at 0900 the lot was full, at 1040 the lot was 75% full! Oh, tonight is Turkey Dinner night at the VK- it is fantastic!

Our next door neighbors never missed a Wednesday night at the VK for the turkey dinner.

Just walked in the door from our fine dining at the VK...piping hot chicken croquettes, stuffing, gravy, cranberry sauce, squash. Very pleasant, not too crowded, and we never mind needing cash....very small price to pay . We are regulars and are never disappointed. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Default On the other side

My extended family goes every weekend to Morriseys Front Porch in Wolfeboro for breakfast as it's the best as they all say ! They are only open for breakfast Fri-Sun. due to help restraints . Yet to hear ! complaint from 3 year old to senior citizens !!

And no I don't know the owners or Chef Tony. Just like the place !

Default Cup and Crumb

Not a full breakfast, but a special shout out to Cup and Crumb in Moultonborough. Excellent coffee, espresso drinks, and fresh baked goods in an old barn setting. Favorite dish--their "Pop Tart" (but you'd better get there early for that one).

Although a faithful VK fan, we ventured to the south and had an excellent breakfast at Margaret’s Kitchen in Sanbornton off of Rte 3. Nice atmosphere and Angela is an excellent waitress.

I got the spicy fried chicken sandwich but “had” to finish my wife’s blueberry pancakes. It’s all good.

This used to be Katie Flo's Diner. When did that close?
