Food was what you would expect for a diner. Clam chowder had an interesting smoky flavor and was much thicker than any I've ever eaten. Fish N Chips was very good. Fries weren't well done as I asked however, they were very tasty.

They shoved us in a back booth and pretty much ignored us the entire time. I sat there like 15-20 minutes waiting for someone to come take my payment (literally waved down to waitresses) at the end of the meal. I was so tempted to just leave. The meal was pretty expensive for what it was. Definitely won’t be coming back.

Very delicious but a bit too pricey for my taste. Many other spots in town that give great quality for cheaper. The waitresses are nice but weren't attentive enough having us wait a very long time for our payment.

I went in with a large group but gave them an hour notice as I sat there. They became busy when my party showed. They didn't want to start planning seating which I said we could sit in separate table but would like to be in the same area. After another hour I went up to help them plan the seating. It was so cold in the restraunt that the food got cold very quickly. We made mention of the cold but they did not adjust the AC. Not accommodating or willing to plan. Not sure if the management is capable of trying to manage seating but there were alot of opportunities to work this out before an hour of waiting but was not willing to plan it. Alot of other seating option for the 1, 2 and even 4 person seating but they could not look at the bigger picture of the puzzle.

I always enjoy coming to Elmer's. The food is always good, and the staff is always friendly and helpful. I also enjoy the way the restaurant is decorated ~ including seasonally. It really adds to a nice warm cozy atmosphere. I love it here. :) Tammy

On the many roadtrips we've taken we've never stopped here. Based off of 2 coworkers who said it was fabulous we decided to finally try it. So yummy! I got the German pancake. Will definitely be stopping again.

Some what of a line, the weekend crowd were low key decent on the noise level and the all Elmers if you seen one you've seen them all. Which is a good thing because they have a nicely laid out floor plan and very good quality provided beverage and edibles on hand.
