Took a early lunch at work and decided breakfast was in order. Got a county breakfast with eggs, potatoes and sausage links with a biscuit. The service was good and the place is quaint with a county vibe. The food was good over all. For me the sausage was bland with almost no flavor what just left the texture while eating it. The potatoes where chalkie. Even with butter it was lacking. The biscuit was good but not warm at all so the butter witch was very cold didn't workout. Putting cold butter on a room temperature biscuit, not the breakfast adventure I was looking for.

Cute little quirky place. It's very busy, so you may have a wait, but they move people in and out fast. The parking lot is small, but there is on street parking nearby. The food is good, decent portions for the price. Overall we were pleased.

I love everything about this place. Cozy little spot with satisfying meals. Been coming here with my kids for years. Never once anything to complain about. Always friendly, always accommodating. Food is better than you average diner. Would recommend stopping in.

If you see Chilaquiles on the specials menu my husband and I both HIGHLY recommend ordering it! We visit this place (or the one up near Orchard Lake) just to get the Carne Asada Chilaquiles (with basted eggs).

I mean… pretty much since we discovered the existence of these Chilaquiles over a year ago, I’ve basically been disappointed with any other dining-out breakfast experience lol. Pretty sure I’m ruined! But like… content to be ruined.

In case it’s not crystal-clear, if you told me that the ONLY available breakfast item at any restaurant in the world for the rest of my life would be Early Bird Chilaquiles, I’d be like, “Ok. Cool. Can I have it at dinner sometimes, too?” 😎

This is a good breakfast spot. Service is friendly and as good if not better than most places. Food is not bad, but not many items that make me want to take a special trip here. The atmosphere is probably better than most places though. I like the layout, kind of compact. Don't go if you have alektorophobia.

Disappointing. Spent $72 on breakfast for 4. Food quality was that of a standard diner, nothing to write home about. Some portions were kinda small, others large but not high quality. Fake maple syrup, not great eggs, meh french toast. Bacon was ok. Coffee meh. Servers were friendly and interested in our baby initially, but not really once we had ordered. Wouldn't have thought much about it if it had cost half the amount, but for poor quality diner food $72 (before tip!) is just way to much. Kinda cool atmosphere with lots of different chicken statues, but also kinda dirty. Bathroom doesn't have a changing station.

I have been here several times. I usually order breakfast regardless of the time. I ordered lunch today, and I had to write this review.

I always get the Travelers Special (pancakes, eggs, and meat) for breakfast. Love the pancakes! For meat, I get turkey sausage. I think the turkey sausage is cooked ahead sometimes because it will be hard. It's fine other times - puzzling. I also add an order of the potatoes. Everything is delicious and a good portion.

I only had one mediocre breakfast experience. My order came out very quickly, but the food was lukewarm at best. That was rather odd. I know the server didn't let it sit because it was so fast. I don't know what happened. Despite that, I have returned numerous times. 😁

I have often considered writing a review, and today is the day. I did not get my usual breakfast. I actually ordered a lunch special - chicken strip pita. It comes with fries, soup, or coleslaw. I chose fries. They're steak fries! Fries were perfectly done inside and out but not too done. I think the pita was grilled. Anyway, it wasn't just a plain pita. The pita sandwich seemed a little small at first glance. Well, looks can be deceiving. It was plentiful and tasty, too!

So, what will I get next time - breakfast or lunch? Don't know but I expect it will be yummy 😋

It tasted like American cheese slices in my omelet. If that's what's happening, please stop doing that forever. Sausage was good, hash browns were fresh and staff was friendly and prompt.

Great food and service! I highly recommend their skillets. They are always served hot and fresh! Their French toast is great as well. I’ve never had a bad meal here! Great little diner right in downtown northville.

We are from out of town but tried to find where the locals go. We found it and were delighted by the food, wonderful waitress, and high energy atmosphere.
