The Hitching Post
Summary
Would we go there again: Yes
A quaint country style restaurant that serves sandwiches, salads, soups, and the like. Not very big, definitely a mom-and-pop kind of joint. This review speaks mainly to Tim's visit there during a work lunch. We went there together, but it was a while ago, so Jeni has limited comments and ratings.

Tim's Comments:
I like this place, in spite of the country music station they tune their radio to. The food is good, and it's the right price. I've been there for lunch two or three times now. Good sandwiches and good fries, too.
Jeni's Comments:
Not very impressed with my salad the one time I went.
