Food was yummy!😋 they were busy but the wait was short! Our waitress was very nice and helpful!
Want a chocolate malt? Go to Mel's diner and ask for Patrick. He is very personable and we enjoyed having him as our waiter tonight. He made us the best malts that we have had in a very long time. Nice and thick with plenty of malt, exactly the way we like them. Thanks Patrick!!
Cool little retro diner. Both burger and fries were very good. Waitress and the service she provided were excellent.
