Sticky table and floors. Wait person was doing her hair for almost 30 minutes before taking our order. 2 people besides us sitting. Spraying hairspray all over behind the counter where the food and drinks are. So gross. Food not horrible, loved the real french fries. Otherwise, my sandwich was burned, but meat tasted ok. (French dip) Next the Patty melt wasn't melted at all lol. Drink machine was scary looking...
Vegetarian options: French fries are homemade, not frozen.

This place is just outstanding, I guess it’s under new ownership. Everything on the menu hits just right. I would give it seven stars if I could.

If I could leave zero stars I would, I ordered a redneck BLT. When I received it, there was no bacon, the lettuce was watery brown. The mayo tasted old. The tomato was burnt. Fries were soggy not cooked all the way. I work for the food industry and it was definitely a food hazard, I would NEVER let anything like that go out of the door. They will be lucky if health department doesn't show up on Monday. Did not even offer a refund when I called, only offered to remake the food which I obviously said no to because why would I want food like that. 0/10.

It's a homey feeling there. Friendly staff and customers. Food was awesome. I was having a bad day and she made me feel better after I went back and gave her more tips. I would definitely recommend this to anyone wanting to try it out!!!!!

We are locals and haven't been back to this place since the name and ownership changed. I had the open faced roast beef with mashed potatoes and gravy and mac and cheese and my husband had the Reuben and fries. We were both shocked at how small the Reuben sandwich was for $15 not to mention what meat was there, was dry and stringy. You could barely see any sauerkraut or dressing. You could tell that the bread had come out of the freezer. The fries were soggy and greasy and hand cut. My mac and cheese was undercooked and the roast beef was chunks of what seemed to be stew beef. Overall the gravy was pretty good but again, for $15 a piece not including drinks, we just expected a little more.Even though it was only ourselves and one other gentleman in the restaurant, this did not preclude the owner from yelling across the restaurant several times to the servers. It kind of took away from the ambiance a little, lol. And when he yelled to her to "check the cheese", our mouths dropped.Sadly, we will not be back. We love to support local business but no one seems to succeed there and it seems to be a lack of consistency.

It's been 5 years since I've been here, and the place is so much nicer!!!Would loved to have had my Hashbrowns crispy like we both asked for, but they were the opposite. They were soggy ?My sister and I both ordered the Country Fied Stake, not the cook's fault, but whoever ordered the food for cheap stakes full of fat and Gristle in every bite ?There was only 1 waitress, but she was great ?But we felt bad for her, she ran all over helping everyone ?

We went on a Sunday evening, there was no one there but the staff, we had the whole place to ourselves. I ordered the Redneck BLT with fried green tomatoes. 10 out of 10. My wife had the burger and onion rings, also 10 out of 10. The waitress was super nice and very friendly! I will definitely be back. They even have live music on the weekends. So great food, awesome staff AND live music??? Yes please. You need to go, SOOO worth the drive!!!
Parking: Tons of room for any vehicle even with a trailer.

Service was horrible (inexcusable for how slow it was). Food wasn't much better.It was edible, but barely.The toast looked like they squished/crumbled it before putting in toaster. Grits were horrible (instant would have been better). Sausage wasn't browned at all (suggests microwave).If you have ANY other choice - make it. This is an absolute LAST resort.So disappointing. I honestly do not know how they are in business and open. It won't be for long if this is the norm.

I removed one star. This diner was called Grammy's a couple of years ago. The food was consistently good. My last couple of visits I would only rate the food as ok. I will point out that I only go here twice a year on a trip from West Florida to St Augustine and back. Maybe it was just a bad weekend for Grampy's.
