Our History
In 1978, Pat and Fred Janssen moved from St. Louis to Edgemont, AR to buy a motel with a leased restaurant attached. The next year, the couple who ran the restaurant didn’t renew their lease, so the Janssen’s decided to run the restaurant themselves which meant their three children (Julie, Tim & Fred, Jr.) “got” to work there too.
Pat and Fred shared cooking duties with comfort foods like fried fish, meatloaf w/ mashed potatoes and burgers. However, every Sunday, Fred cooked his famous fried chicken and no one ever knew what option he might offer with it. Quail, squirrel or pheasant, whatever he had shot the day before! The guests loved it!

“I ate my first bite of Tim’s giant carrot cake in 1990…it was AMAZING!My most recent bite was October of 2019. Same recipe and delicious taste ”30 years later! My favorite all around restaurant on the planet!”
– David Maier, Crossville, TN (January 2020)
“This place is a favorite with the locals and is only open Thursday through Sunday. My husband LOVES the fried chicken and it’s a real treat for us to go to this restaurant.that has “boat parking” available on Greers Ferry Lake. I LOVE the large salad bar and the homemade soup! -L. Lautiger, Fairfield Bay, AR (November 2019)”
“This is a top drawer restaurant. Excellent food. The deserts are to die for. We had excellent food and service. The boiled Shrimp tasted so fresh, you would have thought you were on the gulf. The carrot cake was so moist and so tall. I wish I lived closer to Janssen’s.” -202Trishi, Collinsville, OK.
