What services does your business provide?
The Highland Store is a charming gem off the beaten path. A beautiful drive on Fillmore County Road 10 will lead you to a 116 year old general store converted into a cozy cafe. Sit at colorful 1950s dinettes while you enjoy breakfast all day (featuring multi grain breads, pancakes and waffles, omelets, fresh fruit, etc.) or try some of the daily homemade specials like BBQ chicken or meatloaf with REAL mashed potatoes and gravy - nothing from a box! There are wonderful vegetarian dishes, fabulous salads with many organic ingredients, fruit smoothies and fresh baked pies and desserts.
History of your company:
The Highland Store was established in 1894. For many years it served as a local grocery, gas station, hardware store and veterinary supply store as well as providing postal service and an eight line phone switchboard for the community. Its role in the community has evolved - now it is a relaxing place to gather, visit and enjoy a delicious, healthful meal.
Any other info that might be of interest to visitors of the art tour?
Visitors can enjoy our "work in progress" garden area. A limestone dry stacked garden wall and pathway have been started in an ever evolving perennial garden. We also offer special event catering here at the store.
