When I was a kid, I was taken to Bearden's a number of times, and despite it being associated with a number of good memories, it's been years since I have been there.
So, today we stopped in for lunch, and really enjoyed it. I remember the decor as being a little more homey and a little less generic family restaurant, but the food was still as good as it used to be.
The menu is generally standard diner/greasy spoon fare, but it's well prepared and tasty. The one thing that stands out, and is a must have is the Peanut Burger. Yes, a burger with peanut butter on it. I grew up with these, and know them to be delicious. Get over yourself and try it, and you'll love it too. Be sure to add bacon to it too.
The prices are fair, and so are the portions. You won't leave with leftovers, but you on;t leave hungry either.
