“Love this great little restaurant! Brunch is my particular favorite. The Eggs Benny come in several different varieties. I had the hambone which was a very good portion and perfectly cooked. I life the stone ground cheesy grits. Hubby had their breakfast version of BLT with over medium eggs and home fries. Mimosas made it so special. We always sit at the the bar. Good service, friendly staff. Eveyone working so hard to make it all seem effortless. ❤️“

“I recommend the country pond café because you cannot find any places anymore that brings you good old fashion, hometown cooking. The atmosphere is awesome. You don’t have to worry about anything when you walk in the door just enjoy the food and the atmosphere. I love the roosters by the way anyone in this area to go there go it’s worth it I’ve had their breakfast I’ve had their lunch I’ve even had prime rib. Everything is awesome. Me and my mother will be going back“

“Double Tapp Grill- Melbourne 4.5 Stars In my very younger years I served as what is now known as a "first responder." The term double tapp comes from the order of your training officer to place two bullets center mass to the chest of your adversary. The connotation as it applies to this restaurant is apropos. The Double Tapp Grill is really an ancillary afterthought to the gun shoppe and gun range attached to this Eatery. While the range and gun store are filled with people deluded by the Babbittry of their lives, little do they know the exquisite taste delights that exist just a few feet away. The menu here is unique I ordered fried cheese curds, gator tail and frog legs. The curds were fried and I knew immediately they had been prepared on premises. The batter is light and allows the flavor of the cheese to shine. The frog legs were light fried with no batter. I found this to be original because usually cooks turn them into chicken wings but here they were quick fried, then daintily covered in a mango habanero sauce that had the proper balance and depth of flavor. The gator tail however was the real star. Alligator essentially always bland. Gideon, the chef at Double Tapp, has created a dredge that knocks your socks off. It is full of flavor and cooked to perfection. I could have eaten another order they are so good. The owners of this restaurant really care about their food quality and it is so nice to see. Bravo!!! Big Boy says Try It!!!!“

“My wife and I paid our first visit today. We ordered scrambled eggs, fried potatoes, scrapple, biscuits and sweet potato pancakes. Coffee came first, followed quickly by our orders. Everything was delicious but the sweet potato pancakes and the scrapple were awesome. The food was abundant. We took half home. Coffee was fresh, tasty and offered frequently. The staff were all pleasant, efficient and caring. This place was a treasure hidden from me, but not any more.“

“We got our biscuits when we were almost through with our food. You should get the bread with the bread with your water.Also my husband and I "hated" the peach cobbler. That was not peach cobbler "country" style. I used to go to CB just for the blackberry cobbler. I really miss it. It used to be our Sunday place. We are looking around now.“

“Excellent food. Reading these other reviews is disappointing. It is hard to find good food around here. Seeing these people rate good food as bad because they didn't get their ego stroked is ridiculous. Good clean food = good rating. Everything else is secondary. I order from here often. If you are going to order fried food for delivery, turn your oven on and crisp it up before you eat rather than complain it got soggy on its 35-minute car ride in steamy packaging because you are too lazy to go out. Don't be stupid...Lizzy's, your food is great. Thank you.“
