get the Hubcap burger with cheese and jalapeños,so good!
I have always loved their food and the small town diner atmosphere.
But I did a post on a couple Van fb pages on another topic, and it drew criticism, to say the least. Well, the 2nd time I ordered food after the fb post, I was asked for my last name for my order for the first time in the 5 yrs I have been eating there, which I thought was weird. But then I found out why. Some of the employees found out I was the one who did the post on fb, and when I got home with my food, I took one bite of my food. I knew something wasn't right. The food was cooked just enough to look cooked, but the inside was as raw as it could be. I will still tell folks about the place, but I myself will not eat there anymore just for the simple fact they know I was the one who did the fb post that mad people in the town mad. And the post had nothing to do with the diner.
Hate it cause I always loved the food, but like I said, I will never eat there again just for the fact they know who I am and no telling what'd be done to my food.
The dinner bell has good old fashioned country cooking. They really go out of their way decorating for Christmas.

Guys, if you are into home cooking and Christmas spirit, this little place in Van, TX, is worth the drive. Our server was Robin, and she was an excellent server with a great personality.
This is what it looks like for the holidays. Absolutely adorable and very friendly people.

This place took me back in time to Mamaw's house in the 80's. Customer service was phenomenal and food came out fast and was priced right too. The burger was delicious and the 8 oz chicken fried steak was perfect (top 10 in east TX) , mashed Taters were a bit thin for my liking though.

Went and had breakfast here today and it was amazing. We moved from dallas and have been trying to find a good breakfast place and we finally have. The food was hot and delicious when we got it. The service was very good. The only issue I had was the carpet in the restaurant I think that's kinda gross just because people drop food and I just feel like it's not super sanitary having carpet in the dining room but other than that is was very good. We will definitely be back for sure. Thank yall so much for the great food and service.
