I had a great breakfast here with my family. Service was attentive and quick, and our meals were great. I tried out the pancakes, bacon, eggs, and hashbrowns (which I enjoyed) but I missed out on ordering myself the Joes Favorite Skillet that my wife had- that was phenomenal to try and I regretted not having my own.If you’re looking for a solid meal for a decent price this is a great spot.

I ordered ham and eggs and the ham tasted old and salty. I tried to like it, mixing it with my potatoes and eggs, but it still tasted bad. My mother ordered the same thing and felt the ham tasted bad too. We didn’t eat all our ham and we did let them know that it tasted old and salty, and they still charged us for it.

This has become our go-to weekend breakfast diner. The cinnamon rolls are fantastic and everyone is friendly and great.There is one booth that is right under an AC vent, which can get a little chilly sometimes. Or it can be very refreshing, depending on the time of year.

Stumbled on this place after coming from the airport. Starving!! A young lady came by to clean the table and said someone would be by to take our order. After waiting 18 min This young waiter guy kept passing our table but did not come by to take our order aswell as the two other waitresses,Instead, they sat a table of 4 ppl and took their order !! Wow!! The ambiance is a little hole in the wall. It makes me wonder if this place may be racist and would not recommend this place!!

It pains me this place has gone down so much, honestly. My husband and his family have frequented this place for decades, but in the last year+ it's taken a nose dive. We decided to come in for breakfast with our kids, we ordered: *A blueberry pancake *2 strips of bacon/2eggs/hashbrowns *4 eggs/ a hamburger patty/hashbrowns *Sausage skillet *Breakfast burrito with bacon and sausage (to go). Their prices have definitely skyrocketed, and I know- inflation is hitting everyone hard but that said, tell me why a burger patty is $8... just the patty. Not a burger. Just the patty. The food is typical diner food- which in most situations has the potential to be great, but here- not so much anymore. The burger patty was hard as a brick, trying to cut through it with a fork will definitely leave an impression from the fork on your finger, interesting. Eggs were waaayyyy overcooked- dry, rubbery, it's quite the magic trick to be able to stab into a scrambled egg and the entire thing lifts off of the plate in a single motion. Would have been nice to know they are now charging a "$4.95 admin fee" when you pay with a card as opposed to cash... perhaps put a sign up to let people know ahead of time? Once it was all said and done, between the food, tip and "admin fee", we paid close to $90 for a family of 4 to eat breakfast and take one burrito to go. Bit excessive for a diner in my opinion. Sadly, as much as we used to love this place- things have just gone too far downhill for our liking. Which really sucks because it was nice having a homey-diner so close by with decent food. McCoys it is from here on out I guess. The only saving grace I guess is the waiter was polite/attentive/courteous.

Great spot for some delicious breakfast. My only request is that they and grits/cheese grits to the menu but that’s my southern bias.

Classic diner. Just what you would expect with a good breakfast. I really enjoyed the hash brown potatoes and the eggs. French toast was not amazing.

Selected this diner because it was right by Drum City Guitarland, and has positive reviews. Went with Mom and son, and we were happy with our meal. Mom and I enjoyed our crispy but not over-breaded, tender chicken fried steaks. Son said the soup of the day and burger were great. The location is cute, clean, and nostalgic. Our server was excellent.
