1st time there today, AMAZING ♥️♥️ highly recommend. Food was great, staff very friendly and the coffee...omg!
I want to thank this restaurant for providing the only food I could stomach during my cancer treatments. I was in Hamilton for a month
and a half and ordered from here on uber eats almost every day. the fries are deliciously seasoned and the breakfasts made me feel a little more at home while stuck in the hospital. I genuinely miss the food now that I'm back home. this diner brightened a lot of hard days for me.
