If you're ever passing through a small town and find yourself craving a classic diner experience, make sure to stop by the Diner. It’s the kind of place that feels like home, serving up delicious comfort food with a side of warmth and hospitality. On a busy Sunday, when the place was packed and the pressure was on, our experience was elevated by the exceptional service from Lindsay.
Managing a table of seven on a crowded day is no small feat, but Lindsay made it look effortless. She was the epitome of grace under pressure, juggling multiple tables without ever making us feel like we were anything less than her priority. She was attentive, quick with the refills, and always had a smile, no matter how busy things got. Lindsay's professionalism and friendly demeanor made our visit truly memorable.
Not only did she handle the rush like a seasoned pro, but she also had a knack for remembering the little details. She made sure our orders were just right and checked in with us just enough to make us feel cared for, but never hovered. It’s rare to see someone manage such a full workload with such ease and kindness, and Lindsay made our experience special.
The food, of course, was delicious—hearty diner staples done right—but it was Lindsay’s service that really made the difference. If you’re lucky enough to have her as your server, you're in for a treat. She’s truly the heart of this place, and we can’t wait to return.

Just another average dinner. I've only had breakfast at this place a few times. It has a nice cozy neighborhood feel. I expected the breakfast potatoes to be better. More homemade-like. Cubed seasoned.
With some onions and peppers would have been nice. Not that flat mushy stuff.

Friendly staff. But the food quality and prices for the food are a bit much. $35 for a BBQ chicken wrap with non melted cheese and not great tasting BBQ sauce. I will say the chicken and bacon were good. I also got zero sides. My mom got potato skins and a small cup of Amish soup. Oh and two waters and a coffee. My mom said she enjoyed her meal and that's great. I wouldn't even complain but for what things cost these days then I'm sorry I want a meal I'm going to enjoy.
Great local diner

It's a well established diner that's been around for years. There specials were decently priced and a good amount of food. It was busy when we went there but got seated immediately and served quickly.
