Goobers delivers on everything you want plus Delaware's own, Kirby and Halloway sausages for the perfect breakfast. Parking can be tough but this is an awesome diner.

Actually love it when I go and sit inside. However, I wanted to try the take out window today. I walked up, excited for the experience and no one answered. After waiting patiently in the cold air, I knocked lightly on the window and was greeted by a lady who cracked the window and blurted out that I'd have to wait. One Heck of a greeting. So I continued to wait to which another young lady came to the window with a smile to assist me. Not saying I'd stop ordering from here, just friendlier ppl at the window and at least acknowledge when someone is there. Don't just leave us standing outside on the street looking weird. It's a Take out window option, remove it if it's not working.

Looks like an old 50s diner except it is two stories, same stainless steel appearance; however it's relatively new. Food was good and staff friendly with a couple of visits from the manager to check that everything was ok.

Cool place.
Crap food
Let's just say I paid a small fortune for a breakfast sandwich that a 5 year old could make better.

Let me start by saying I am not a Diner person by any means but this place is special. Just look at the place. It’s a 2 story diner which is one of a kind. The outside oldies feel matches the inside oldies feel just like stepping into a Time Machine. The service was great. The meatloaf was delicious and so was the Mac and cheese. My wife had the cream chipped beef and that was amazing too. The owner came around and talked to every table which doesn’t happen at many places I have been. Try it out you will not be disappointed.

This was first time visiting this diner, I look for diners because I love eating at them. I saw the website and history of this two story diner and said, I have to go! The place is super clean but our very small booth was not comfortable at all. The manager came out and talked with us which is fantastic! Keep it up. The food and service though was disappointing. Again if you’re reading this post, I go to a lot of diners and I don’t look for nor expect 5 star food and service. I look forward to comfort food and friendly helpful service and they fell short in both of those areas today.

Never been and won't be back. The classic cars were better than the food and service. I got the waffle with banana and coffee. The waffle was boring. No flavor to it. Coffee was nothing to rant and rave about either. Boyfriend got French toast and asked for cappuccino. French toast was eh. Waitress brought him a coffee. We asked the food runner for his cappuccino.
We asked what brand of scrapple they had and she told me Sysco. I told her I didn't know the food delivery company made scrapple. She came back later and corrected herself. Won't be back.

Someone recommend to come here while we were waiting for our car to get fixed . Place is cute retro diner with two floors, service was friendly and place was clean. Parking was tricky as it's in Wilmington and their lot only has a few spots. Pancakes were good, tuna melt wasnt anything terrific, for $16, nor was the honey mustard. Yes I put honey mustard on my fries. Maybe the breakfast is better than the lunch I chose. Would probably come back and give a try just for breakfast.

Couldn’t tell if place was open so I left I was there on Thursday around 10 google said they were open but from outside looked like lights were off
The owner reply’s and says they were open and gives the hours
Somewhere something is confusing but I meant 10 A.M. and looked dark inside so I kept on going and went somewhere else for breakfast. I was only going there since I was driving past that way I would never go to the restaurant if I wasn’t in the area.
