From the rustic wood flooring to griffin-stamped tin ceiling tiles of another era, Sugar Britches Café & Bakery brings eclectic home-goodness-on-a-plate to downtown Sapulpa. Opening late last year in a historic Main Street building that once housed the town’s drug store, Sugar Britches specializes in scrumptious home-style favorites. Those favorites (meatloaf, chicken pot pie, BLT sandwiches), however, have a delectable, unexpected spin that only owners John McEachern and Kristina Lord can create – they’re both chefs. Pastries, cookies, breads and buns are made from scratch in the kitchen. Fresh-made, fluffy biscuits, even under savory sausage gravy, are like mom’s. The egg bread and buns, on which most sandwiches and burgers are served, masterfully complement any combination of flavors, yet still hold their own. And for dessert, let’s just say there will be very little of the cobblers and bread puddings left behind for a to-go box. 1 S. Main St., Sapulpa. www.sugarbritchescafe.com – Karen Shade
