Downhome Cafeteria on Rockford Lane. Anyone been?

by Robin Garr » Thu Dec 10, 2015 8:59 am

I just got a nice note from Missy, the owner of Downhome Cafeteria 2605 Rockford Lane, inviting me to check out her place. I'm willing ... it's only fair to get out to the Dixie Highway/PRP/Valley Station area now and then, but local places are so rare. Anyone been to Downhome? What did you think?

I've been a couple of times. It's okay. Better than Hall's, not as good as Franko's IMO.

Thanks, Steve. I had forgotten that. Thanks also for the reminder that Ms. Miller did not invent the idea of giving reviews that don't match the stars. :lol:

Sorry, Franco's. (FB and Google both say it's with a k, but the sign out front is a c). Anyway, soul food cafeteria on Dixie. Awesome fried fish.
