Love this diner.
We arrived just after 1pm, the restaurant was busy. There was one server talking to a table and taking pictures for them, and the host was at the register.
We waited about 5 minutes to be seated at the only cleaned table.
About 10 minutes later the second waitress came and took our order, although there were 2 ladies sitting beside us before we arrived that still hadn't had their orders taken.
My husband and I were patient and drank our coffee that was brought while we waited for our food.
About 35 to 40 minutes went by and I asked another waitress if it is normal to wait this long here. She just kind of giggled and said I will go check.
Shortly after our waitress brought our food to us and was visibly frazzled.
By this time the restaurant was at about half capacity.
We began to eat our food and we're quite disappointed.
I ordered the ole albert with chocolate chip pancakes and my husband had the western, whis was supposed to be a sandwich.
His was a pile of wet soggy eggs and under cooked veggies, the potatoes looked like they had served 2 rounds or more in a deep fryer.
My pancakes had about 6 chocolate chips sprinkled on top, my eggs were supposed to be scrambled but were over done on the outside and not cooked through, the breakfast sausage was still raw inside.
It was another 10 minutes before the waitress came to check on us.
We told her what was wrong and she did offer to make us a new meal but we had already been there waiting for such a long time I just asked what do we owe for the coffee, they did comp the coffee but we still left disappointed.
I have eaten here before and did not receive the same inadequate service as today, but this was very disappointing.
Great food ,great atmosphere
Great food
Food is always good and service is fast
I ordered a take out today and I had an amazing experience. The order taker was friendly, the food was ready on time and tasted really good.
Best clubhouses.....excellent fries.
If you are looking for english breakfast, just come here. The food is very good and service is great
I was here today to celebrate a birthday and was unfortunately very disappointed. 2 of us ordered the schnitzel dinner and one had the breakfast. The schnitzel was terrible!! It was rubbery and over processed and the breading was not crispy at all, and the mest was grey. This is the first time we have been here since the new ownership and unfortunately will not be returning. I gave 2 stars purely because the service was good. The girl tending our table was very sweet and kind, and she is not responsible for the final product that comes out of the kitchen. This is a far cry from the food quality that previously came from here, and we have been coming on and off for 20 years. I would recommend finding another place to have schnitzel, but their breakfast looked ok.
My ultimate favorite breakfast place for the past 9years clean and very friendly.

Great breakfast, good sized portion, reasonable price.
The food was excellent as usual and the staff were friendly and very efficient.
Amazing food, amazing service!
We are here twice in a recent trip to the area. Food was fresh. I had a salad which was crisp and fresh. My husband thoroughly enjoyed his burger which led to a second visit. My husband had the liver and onions which he again, thoroughly enjoyed. Liver was cooked well. I had meatloaf and it was ok. The home fries were supposed to include onion, green pepper and bacon but it was just a scoop on-top of the home fries and only had one tiny piece of bacon and peppers. I was expecting it to have been mixed and cooked in with the potatoes a bit better.
Great food , great service and a reasonable price. 100% recommended
