Dan Delion Café Elevates Cause Through Local Dining Success
Cole, a Mississippi native, recently promoted to manager after Kat Neville left the kitchen for the Purple Ribbon thrift shop. Neville praises the restaurant for exceptional food and service, crediting TripAdvisor votes to helping women in their program. The menu features Painter originals like pimento cheese and shrimp and grits with tomato pie and vegetarian options, aiming for local, healthy choices beyond burgers and fries. Delion, affiliated with Safelight, attracts tourists and locals, with Our State planning a feature and summer crowds making up to 60 percent of patrons. Community support, former owners Robyn and Neville, and repeat customers fuel growth from $200 to about $1,200 daily.
