Alva Diner

Alva Country Diner, Palm Beach Blvd., Alva, Fl. A grumbling in my tummy, 2 cents on the food and chit chat.
Lets start differently. Chatter. I posted on FB where is the best chix in SWFL. I got many replies. Alva Diner was the most said.
Alva Country Diner is just that, Country. It is on the corner of Palm Beach Blvd./ Packinghouse Rd.. It is a big red building thats looks like a barn. There is NO sign stating what this is. Its country because there is no infrastructure for them to utilize credit/debit cards. Cell use can also be sketchy.
My entree. sweet tea, pot roast, fried chix, cherry pie al la mode.
First the bad. Though the pot roast is reasonable price forget it. It really lack flavor. The carrots were frozen and taters seemed to be from a box. Taters were just too smooth no lumps.
Ah cherry pie with ice cream. I recall it was 2.59 taste great. House made creamy potato soup, goodness good.
Now the star of this eatery. FRIED CHICKEN.
Folks were correct. Great local fried or broasted depending on who you talk to.
They serve the chicken everyday of the week. BUT some days its AYCE or just special.
Crispy outside moist inside. AND it even taste good when it luke warm or cold for a picnic.
This is why you will drive 30-40 minutes .
The staff was friendly and attentive. So make it a destination if in the mood for chicken and pie.
