I got dragged there by relatives a couple of times

It must've been one of the few places to serve buttermilk (does anyone drink that anymore?)

It was on Florida Blvd where the McDonalds is now at Wooddale Blvd.

Great black eyed peas. All I remember. And I do always remember it when I pass the one in Niceville.

Not sure about that. Only one I remember is Florida at Wooddale. On Airline in that area was a Shoney's. Farther down across from Coleman Oldsmobile was a Tiffin Inn Pancake House.

There was one in Bossier City in the early 80's. Only thing that I remember was drinking out of Mason Jars.

There was one on college where service merchandise was. And alfalfa video. Man.... I miss old baton rouge.

Pofolks is my first memory of eating out with the family. Will never forget the mason jars

I'm not positive, but for some reason I connect this chain with a country music singer. We ate in one in Jackson, TN, once, and the food was dreadful.

I remember we went to the Florida Boulevard location and my Mom freaked out, she said the place was dirty and everything was sticky. So we left without ordering.

They used to have one on the westbank and my parents used to drag me there when I was younger. Remember they had lots of games for kids but don't remember much on the food.
