    That building used to be The Lantern Restaurant and was my first job at 16 years old. 🥹❤ My husband and I enjoy watching your videos and we are especially enjoying these Dobson and Mt. Airy videos!

    I travelled through Dobson today, 9/29/26, and stopped at the Central Cafe for lunch at <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n_e5FlVHUyE&amp;t=720">12:00</a> noon. There was only one table available, one that seats eight people. I sat on one end and another man sat on the other end. Pretty soon, half of that table was full too. <br><br>I ordered the Ground Steak sandwich, because I was raised near Mt. Airy, and it is my go-to order. <br><br>I&apos;ve eaten the ground steak sandwich at Speedy Chef in Bannertown for decades. The Ground Steak sandwich at the Central Cafe was head and shoulders better, easily the best that I&apos;ve ever eaten. It was heavenly!<br><br>I wanted to write and thank you for the video, because without your showcasing the restaurant I never would have known to stop at this gem. Central Cafe in Dobson is my NEW gold standard for this sandwich.

    I love old school places like this. The prices were fantastic and so homey. In the Poconos there is a little diner called The Country View that reminds me of this place that my husband and I ate breakfast at twice this trip and twice last trip. Both your meals looked good. The ground beef sounds a little similar to chopped beef in my area. Looked delicious on a roll like that. Here it&apos;s not served on a roll. It&apos;s served like a meatloaf. The dessert I never heard of but looked good. I love trying regional food specialties. Great video.
