Very small, has it's regulars that seem to get served first. Food was ok, atmosphere was pictures of the history of Salem.

I really wanted to love this place, I’ve passed by nearly every day on my way to work for the past year. I was excited to try it because I love small diners and was hoping for that friendly, small-town vibe where everyone knows each other.
The server was friendly enough, but we waited over an hour for our food. The diner only has about seven tables and a small counter, so it was surprising that several parties who arrived 20+ minutes after us were served first. When we asked about our order, we overheard the cook say, “yeah, yeah, I saw them staring at me,” which didn’t feel great.
The food itself was okay, but not worth such a long wait. I’ve been in the service industry for 20 years, so I always try to give grace when a server’s in the weeds—but she didn’t seem overwhelmed, just focused on other tables. I’m not sure if we just weren’t a priority for some reason, but we definitely felt a bit out of place. My partner and I are a bit alternative in our appearance, and it was hard not to feel like that played a role in how we were treated, it wouldn’t be the first time it’s happened in Salem.
I was hoping to find a new regular spot, but unfortunately this visit missed the mark.

ABSOLUTELY HORRIBLE CUSTOMER SERVICE. called to place a pickup order the lady on the phone said they were slammed and are order would take 30 minutes. Totally understandable we waited about 35 minutes then i went in to pick up are order. I said i was there for a pickup order and gave the name she said the order with BG i didn’t understand what that ment so she proceeded to laugh at me and say biscuit and gravy. then she said it would take 20 more minutes i told u an hour on the phone. mind u she’s had a nasty attitude the moment i walked in. i said ok then got up to go wait in my car. as i was heading to the door she says if u want fast service go to dennys. i turned around and told her that she has HORRIBLE customer service. she responded with you can leave. just wow lady! It was the lady with blond hair and dark roots. absolutely disgusting and very disappointing!!

This is a perfectly acceptable, traditional American breakfast dinner, with a pretty good homemade country fried steak, but the place is too small so please go somewhere else lol.

Great place for a breakfast. Tiny building, but it's cozy inside. Feels like home - people are welcoming. A lot of parking.
Absolutely love this place! everything about was amazing. The food was delicious. Please try the German sausage, you won't be disappointed. The hash browns were crispy on BOTH sides . The lady who took our order was the sweetest & did her job with excellence. For the price, they give you so much food. We couldn't finished it all & had to do to go boxes! Gonna stop by here again when we have the chance.
