Great place to eat! The waitresses are fast and extremely friendly. The food is incredible and the price you pay for it is hard to beat. My personal favorite of this restaurant is talking to the owner. She tells us every time were in that if our foods not the way we want it then to send it back and ask for it the way YOU want it!

I have a hunting cabin near Plymouth that I share with a group of guys. During off season sometimes we'll drive into town to eat breakfast here at KD's Coop and it is just as good as when it was called Ma & Pa's. Very good breakfast, nice and courteous staff. I recommend if your in the area come by and eat here, you'll be impressed.
