I always enjoy going here. Today was very quiet not like other times when it is packed and loud. Food was absolutely great like always. I always get the corned beef hash and an extra side of bacon and additional toast. Couldn't eat all my toast but it was wonderful.

We loved this place. The food is great, as was the service. If you are looking for a old fashioned mom & pop diner feel- this is the place. The prices were great. Also, that was the best coffee I've had out to eat any place.

This diner is a happy step back into Americana. No fast food, but food is on time, tasty and priced right. The staff is friendly, knowledgeable and happy to visit for a bit. This is where the locals go, that says a lot! I had corned beef hash and eggs, my partner has a great Western omelet. Worth skipping the chain restaurants!

I arrived, immediately they sat me down, no delays, no hassle. The waitress brought me the menu, had coffee & water. I ordered, got my food in 7 to 8 minutes, my breakfast was already served. Finished eating, paid & was out the door. Excellent customer service, will definitely return & will recommend to my friends.

We walked in just a little bit before their closing time. And they served us anyway and the service was very good. I had a chicken fried steak burger and fries with Dorothy Lynch as I don't like ketchup. Two thumbs up for the service and the burger.
