My cheeseburger wasn't done, told the waitress, she said they'd recook, we didn't have time to wait
disappointed
still paid for both meals
We’ve loved this place for nearly a decade. The changes they have made are AWFUL. We won’t be back, and that’s terribly disappointing. We bring every out of towner here because it WAS the best breakfast. Good luck…..but I won’t surprised if y’all lose most of your business, if not all of it.
New owner changed the breakfast potatoes to hash browns or little deep fried potato cubes. No more American fries. They have had American fries for at least the last 30 years that I can remember. The wait staff are friendly and wonderful but if you don’t have business they won’t stay either. Looking around this morning and there was hardly anyone there. It was always so busy and people were waiting to get in. Very sad.
