 There's a place in North Alton where the community gathers, where you'll always find a smiling face and a hot cup of fresh coffee, where they serve a hearty breakfast and a satisfying lunch with daily specials that are sure to please. I'm talking about Joe K's Family Restaurant, a North Alton landmark and a great place to gather with friends. Joe K's Family Restaurant on State Street, open from 8 a.m. till 2 p.m., Wednesday through Sunday. Now offering dine-in, carry-out, and curbside pickup.
