Welcome to Nana Jo's, a hometown place in small town Kansas that many might overlook, but it's time to mark it down on your bucket list.

This little cafe out in eastern Kansas sits about an hour south of Kansas City, hiding out in a small town of only around 1,000 people named LaCygne.

Nana Jo's specializes in home cooked meals that never try to be fancy, like goulash or chicken and noodles.

Our favorite meals often include gravy, like meatballs or open faced beef sandwiches. There's never a bad excuse for gravy!

If you've got a hankering for some good home cooking, you'll find it right here at the table. Diners that treat you like family are a Kansas treasure we cherish.

Special items like prime rib are something that might surprise you, but not if you know how hungry Kansas gets. There needs to be enough for everyone, after all!

Get your grub on from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. on Tuesdays, and from 11 a.m. to 7 p.m. Wednesdays through Fridays.

If you’d like to keep an eye out for specials and menu changes, check out Nana Jo’s Facebook page.

Nominate your favorite hometown destinations for an article with our suggestions page, and we might feature them in the future.

Address: 116 E Market St, Lacygne, KS 66040, USA
