The food is fine. There’s nothing crazy about it. Price is good. Service is excellent although they may forget to take something from your order down if you’re a regular. Feels like a retirement home, so if you’re younger or look alternative expect to be a spectacle for the townie geezers

I’m really upset about the experience my family and I had here recently. When we walked in, I asked the waitress for a table for 3. She pointed to a table with 4 seats and said, “You can sit if you’d like,” so we began to sit down.
Out of nowhere, a man, who I couldn’t tell if he was a staff member or just a customer approached us and said, “Did you not see the line in front of you? Why did you just sit?” I explained that the waitress had just told us we could. Instead of apologizing or saying anything else, he walked away and went straight to speak with the same waitress. After that, no one followed up with us or acknowledged what happened.
Before even asking the host,I had even asked the people in line if they were waiting to be seated or just speaking with the host. I would never intentionally cut in front of anyone, and I made sure to check. Still, we were left feeling judged and very uncomfortable.
To make things more confusing, the man who confronted us eventually went and sat at the breakfast bar, which is why I still don’t know if he was a staff member or just a rude customer.
We tried to stay and make the best of it because my daughter was really hungry, and we used to come here often. But after the stares, the poor communication, and the overall uncomfortable vibe, we decided it wasn’t worth it. Even when a server eventually came to take our drink order, we had already made the decision to leave and eat somewhere else.
It’s really disappointing. We live in the community and used to love coming here, but after this experience, we won’t be returning.

I've had the pleasure of eating breakfast quite a few times here and it never dissapoints! The staff is always so friendly and does a great job! They have some great muffins, always a few choices and always fresh! The hardest thing is deciding what to have! Enjoy

What a diner. As a German I love the diner culture in the USA. We always looking for unique diners and here is one.

The interior is like I imagine a diner. Staff is nice and friendly. And the food is awesome. We had breakfast platter with eggs, bacon, sausage and pancakes & French toast. It was soooooo good. We were full the whole day 😅
Highly recommend this place.
Would definitely come again

Went for breakfast as we were staying in the area. The food was horrible. Pancakes were dry no matter how much butter and syrup you put on them. Home fries were undercooked. My wife’s meal came with hair in it At no extra cost . Server was great. The owner on the other hand. Was to busy talking to to friends and sitting at the bar top to care enough about his guests who had order issues. Do not offer to take it off the bill or remake anything. Worst diner. Consumer be aware.

Had long black hair in my home fries. (I am blonde). The server was great but the owner mad us pay for the meal with hair in it 🤢. He also never came over to apologize or acknowledge us. Just sat at the bar top the whole time! Will not eat here again!
