This LITTLE RESTAURANT IS AN ABSOLUTE GEM! It’s a modest little establishment tucked directly behind Home Goods. The decor design is very much early 1970’s. Tile floors with 10-12 Formica tables & counter seating. IT’S ADORABLE! THE FOOD IS FABULOUS & PRICED EXTREMELY REASONABLE. They SERVE BREAKFAST ALL DAY! They also offer delicious lunch items ranging from pot roast, spaghetti to patty melts. They have AN ARRAY OGLF WONDERFUL CHALK BOARD SPECIALS! THE STAFF ARE LOVELY. I have NO IDEA why anyone would say they are RUDE. I have been going weekly for 2+ yrs & I have had NOTHING but KIND, HELPFUL EFFICIENT SERVICE. The COOK is a quiet, shy but genteel man. So perhaps ppl should pay a bit more attention.
OPEN only until 2 pm (Sunday 1 pm). CASH ONLY!
HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!

33 Years in the same place, same staff, they must be doing something right, Great prices on excellent food. I've read the reviews from people that have given it 1 star. These must be people that can only accept 5 star service, and everything else is 1 star. I understand some of the things you complained about, and maybe you did have a valid point, but 1 star, and to imply that the waitress was suffering from dementia, come on, grow up. If you made reasonable criticisms, and rated fairly, people would take you seriously, but you just make yourselves look mean and vindictive. All over an undercooked omelette, etc.

Can't beat it! Great prices, nicely cooked. Corned beef hash was crispy and soft! Scrambled eggs soft and fluffy. Great coffee!
The waitress has dementia, the cook is rude, the food is just OK, and the place is kind of dirty and smoky because the kitchen opens up to the dining area! They overcharged me for something that was supposed to be included on their specials that day and then the cook/owner started an argument with me because I wouldn't pay the difference. I told her to take it up with the 80+ year old waitress who is crazy and then I left and told them I wouldn't be back!

Amazing ladies that run the place for nearly 32 years at this point. Food price was very cheap for what they cook for you and tastes amazing as well.

Shhh...they're the best kept secret in town! As for the negative reviews, when I click to see the posters other reviews, they're all negative. Really? 90% of places these posters reviewed rate 2 or less stars? That's when you just have to take the negative reviews out of the rating. The Courtyard ends up with 5 stars overall!
