The food is mid quality, confidently presented but nothing special. The staff is very friendly. A step Above hole in the wall but not particularly fancy for atmosphere.

Burrito bowl with green chili is delicious. And you can grad a cinnamon roll on the way out.

Imagine an old fashioned diner in a small town, maybe in the south, and you've got what this place is like. There are older men bringing their own coffee cups, there are families enjoying a breakfast, and the help is always friendly. I'll be going back.

The price keeps rising and they still can’t cook an egg to order.
This is the cutest spot, love the atmosphere, got donuts and the BLT it was delicious.
Already ate half of my sandwich but it was delicious. This will be a spot I visit every time I come to town from Las Vegas!!

Girl that answers the phone is kind of rude waiting on hold for like 30-40 minutes hung up figured they were busy gave him a chance to catch up called back an hour later put back on hold for another 10 minutes and the girl takes my order ordering a chili bowl she says ahh what. Really good spot but lost my business I understand being busy but customer service should be number one
I gave this place a second try, my husband and I came here when it first opened. We never came back, so today I had a hair appointment at the cust cutters and thought I'd stop in. Got the little Joe breakfast which contains one egg, choice of meat and choice of pancake or French toast. The food came out late, the eggs and bacon were fine but the French toast and the donut were awful. It's weird that this place is expanding and bought out baskin robbins to put a bakery. In this day and age, the bakery probably won't last long with the mediocre pastries. I would defiantly skip this place for first watch or even mcdonalds. Good luck grumpy egg, your going to need it.

Definitely the cheapest breakfast around but at a cost. The person who took our order was literally texting people while halfway paying attention to our order. The busses was really friendly and nice. It was super busy and not very much seating. What doesn't help is its a seat yourself kind of place so parties of 2 were seating themselves at tables big enough for 6 people.. I recommend checking what day you go in on because breakfast hour is popping which says a lot. All in all it would've been a better experience had the girl at the front treat her job a bit more professionally.. without that experience I probably would've given it a 4 star rating.

A classic breakfast diner. We loved everything we tried and the prices were super reasonable.
The iced coffee with whipped cream was so rich it was basically diabetes in a cup! If you like sweet drinks you'll love it.
The bacon was cooked perfectly and the gravy was really good on the biscuits and gravy.

We were passing through town and saw this adorable little spot on our map! What an absolute treat!! Great staff energy, $0.50 donuts, & the food was 10/10 diner quality. We will be recommending this place to everyone near by!!

I had such a great experience here for breakfast! From the moment I walked in, the atmosphere felt warm and welcoming. The staff was super friendly, attentive, and made sure everything was just right.
The food was absolutely delicious—fresh, flavorful, and cooked perfectly. #7 Eddie's Special was the highlight for me, but honestly everything looked tempting. The portions were generous without being over the top, and you can tell they care about quality ingredients.
I also loved the vibe of the place—cozy, clean, and a perfect spot to start the day, whether you’re grabbing a quick bite or lingering over coffee.
Definitely one of the best breakfast spots I’ve been to in a while. Highly recommend!
