Found out the hard way traveling through town and wasted time getting off the highway only to find they were out of business. TripAdvisor search indicated it was 'Open Now' !?!

This place looks amazing. Question for the owner. Are you guys operating online? Or are you closed? Or plan on reopening. I am interested in the location. I would really appreciate a reply. Thank you in advance.

I have not been to this establishment for quite some time. I would give zero stars if allowed. The cook here is a real j**** If you order toast, he gives you these small little ends that come out burnt. The food arrives cold and is very expensive for what you get. This used to be a good place when Jimmy ran it, but now it is a complete fail! Don't worry, I won't come back and second, it would better since you have been closed for so long to stay closed and sell to someone who knows how to run a restaurant and treat patrons unlike you! Poor service and food!

Very nice and friendly place. Home cooked meals and a very good value.Closed. Probably due to COVID-19. I hope it reopens soon.

What a cute little gem, hidden right in front of you. If you've never been to the Farmer Boy, you're missing out! Delicious, home cooked meals without the clean up. Super friendly staff, and great diner food - plus specials daily!

Always accommodating and nice. Food portions are large and always tasty. We will continue to come here for years. Keep up the good work!

This is probably my favorite diner in the area. Their home made corn beef hash is all I think about most days. The only problem is that it's so good that it's SLAMMED every time I drive by.

So my boyfriend & I sat down so the waiter could take our order after she was done we said to one another we were coming back before we even got our food we LOVED the atmosphere. The waiter was nice wasn't crowded everyone was so pleasant even the customers. HOWEVER, when the waiter came with out food she asked us "do you need anything else a refill on your orange Juice?" We said "no we're all set" then she asked us AFTER we said were good "what about hot sauce". Any other time of day I wouldn't have minded but we ordered breakfast Eggs, sausage, & pancakes! That's like assuming we wanted fried chicken before taking our order if we came in there during dinner time. Hot sauce tho yall on breakfast? & YES we're black! It may be small to some but to us it was offensive & WE WONT BE RETURNING! Food wasn't even good. Y'all need to use seasoning! Have a good day!

Food has always been good here, but not today. I had 1 pancake and had to get a sharp knife to cut it and then soak in syrup. My husband had burnt home fries. Must be new cook.

Service is always good, the food is well prepared and delicious I’ve been going there for over 5 years and have never been disappointed with the quality of the food or the comfortable setting.

Had the stuffed peppers. Two huge stuffed peppers with a great tomato sauce. Came with a delicious twice baked potatoe. Both were delish and the waitress Jenna was the best with her recommendations. Awesome service... great food

I came here since it was conveniently located on my way to a class in Albany and I was sick of fast food. I am sooo thankful I discovered this place, the food was spectacular and I enjoyed the house wine. Service was great also the host was at the door ready to greet me as I walked in. 10/10 I know Ill be back

7:10-7:48 am 2/2 my dad and I are the only customers in your restaurant the entire time. Our waitress was busy talking with the hostess at the counter the entire time. We both ordered blueberries pancakes, one with sausage it took over 15 mins for our order to arrive cold. Our waitress Kristen was abrupt she offered to nuke our breakfast in the microwave. I told her that I didnt want it microwaved. Kristen offered to put it back on the grill. The pancakes were already over c
