Great little diner just off the highway, the kind of place the locals wait for the door to open in the morning.
While our visit was brief, will definitely stop again on our next trip west.
February 2026
I was coming into Ohio from Wisconsin to meet a College buddy of mine. We randomly choose the Blue Ribbon Diner as it was close to the Ohio / Indiana border. We had no idea what to expect given that neither one of us had ever heard of Wauseon but it was a perfect spot to meet right off of the turnpike. We were pleasantly surprise by the friendly atmosphere and great service. I had the cinnamon swirl French toast, bacon, and sausage. My homeboy had a Western Scrambler. We eat it...

Food was good service was inadequate.
My wife and I had omelettes they came with pancakes we upgraded to blueberry. The upgrade charge was 7.27 per meal kind of pricey but food was good
