A meal with friends soothes the soul, much like a mother's hug or a movie about brave dogs learning to read. Enjoy a feel-good feast with today's Groupon: for $7, you get $15 worth of homestyle fare at Countryside Catering & Cafe in Greenville.

Countryside Catering & Cafe's kitchen denizens whisk fresh ingredients into a menu of house-made fare in a warm, down-to-earth atmosphere. Chefs crack three eggs for philly omelets that bubble with swiss cheese and heaps of onions, peppers, and mushrooms ($7.29), and noontime diners dunk the french dip sandwich's shaved prime-rib-stuffed hoagie into pools of au jus ($5.49).

Dinners arrive trimmed with sides that accessorize hearty plates of country-fried steak ($7.49) and sirloin tips perched atop mashed potatoes ($7.79). Garlic bread and a salad sashay out with pasta dishes, such as the chicken alfredo's creamy tangle of noodles ($7.99). Broiled, fried, or seared with the cook's laser vision—the seafood platter parades to tables piled with heaping helpings of haddock, perch, shrimp, and walleye ($12.99). This deal is also good for the kitchen's daily specials, which add variety to plates and keep spatulas on their metaphorical toes.
