1 of our orders was messed up. The burgers are just ok for a frozen puck patty. Service was terrible. After the food arrived the server never came back to the table. Won’t be returning.

No lattes but they make a mean coffee and milk
Took a while to get a table for 4, but service was good and food was delicious with big portion sizes. Great authentic diner feel.

I am really disappointed today as we have gone to this Diner a lot as a family and this has been a favourite place of ours and for our children up until now. Today we went in and we unfortunately dealt with a server who was very snarky with us and overall just not a pleasant person to talk to when placing our orders. The attitude was enough to be off putting but we also felt we were deliberately being met with minimal effort to help us get what we needed, we had to search and get most things ourselves as she ignored our table. After we ate we paid for our food and we did not tip. We sat down and waited for our family to finish packing up to go when this waitress came over and in a very rude and snarky way asked us if there was something wrong with the food or service because we did not tip. I have never in my life seen a waitress confront a table for not tipping, it was totally shocking to us. We asked to speak to the owner and he came over and told us that he gave her permission to ask us this. I then told them that this is incredibly unprofessional and it made us feel super uncomfortable for which he just kept saying “I’m sorry you feel that way”. To top everything off, my husband had bits of seafood in his meal from another order, and he cant eat seafood! Overall, we are left feeling super frustrated and upset that one of our favourite restaurants has now been ruined for us due to the awful service and confrontation that we received today. We are not sure we feel comfortable going back now and that is very upsetting.

The local looks very old fashioned, which is nice. I like the environment. But food was just basic, not very surprising or tasty. But I can say it’s an affordable place to visit and chat with friends

Very typical diner, with great food and service. My friend and I shared a Blondies Burger and we could barely finish it. The home cut fries were also delicious and plentiful.

It indeed was where the locals ate. Super friendly though to tourists as well. The philly cheese steak was fantastic and my party liked their respective dishes as well.. closed on Thursdays for now so unfortunately was unable to come again but will definitely be on our map the next time we are here! Generous portions and reasonable prices.
