Stayed at the Travelodge, and this charming 50s-style diner quickly became our go-to spot during our stay. The retro decor and nostalgic vibe added a fun and unique touch to our dining experience.

The convenience was unbeatable—we dined here nearly every day. The hotel’s check-in and check-out are managed through the diner, which is open 24/7 with the entire menu available at all hours—a huge plus for late-night cravings or early breakfasts.

The staff were consistently friendly and efficient, ensuring we always found a table, even during busy times. They even provided coloring books for our kids, which was a thoughtful touch that kept them entertained.

The food was enjoyable, rounding out an overall great experience. If you’re in the area, I’d definitely recommend stopping by!

Everything was excellent! Best diner food I've had in a long time. Keeshan was the cook, and he made everything to perfection. It all tasted fresh. I really appreciated how clean the whole place was. Even the restrooms. Our server was Barbara and she was so friendly and pleasant. All the staff there created an excellent atmosphere. They seemed like a great team. I can't wait to come through again. We were here on a Saturday at 9PM.

Vegetarian options: I had a veggie omelets. All tasted fresh.

Kid-friendliness: Kids menu had two breakfast options and the three kids favs: chicken strips, cheese burger, and grilled cheese. Server joked with my kid and made her laugh.

The food is good but it is cold when they give it to you and the soft drinks take a long time to give them to you until you ask again for them to give it to you.

To put it bluntly, our experience was a train wreck.
Slow slow service. Dirty tables.
The cooks had a " communication mistake " and didn't cook our food. It took our server 30+ minutes to figure out no one was cooking our food. We had to ask for refills on our drinks.
And after our hour and a half + wait ...they didn't offer any discount.
Even after the cook came out and took responsibility for the mistake.

24 hours, very friendly service. Clean bathrooms. 1950's theme, w holiday decor. Sit at the small milkshake bar!

Everything is good - Frisco Burger, (blt) or Mushroom Swiss is my favorite.
Get chocolate/ banana shake to go. Best bathroom for miles on i-5.

Wheelchair accessibility: Yes, both bathrooms large enough.

Loved the vibe of this restaurant, such a great atmosphere. The food wasn't that great, but they did have a lot of options. The service was good once a new waitress took over. When we're passing through next time maybe we'll just stick to the shakes and desserts. Definitely worth the stop for scenery and vibes! ⛰️ 🏔 📷 🤳
