I can't say enough about this place. Authentic. Ann was the best! Bacon doneness chart was awesome. Real dinner.
Great small business hometown diner. Always busy.
On the road with my brothers on a bike trip. Great breakfast, friendly place
Good retro vibe
The staff was great and the food was great.
I had the best burger in the best diner!
Pleasantly surprised on how nice the staff was. They made us feel like family. The food was great and reasonably priced. Would highly recommend coming to check them out. We will be back.
I visited The Diner recently and had a noteworthy experience. Upon arrival, I was greeted promptly and seated, which was impressive considering the restaurant was quite busy and crowded. Our server arrived shortly to take our order, demonstrating efficient service.
The food was served relatively quickly, and I must say the meal was delicious. I highly recommend the patty melt; the patty was cooked to perfection—slightly pink and moist, which enhanced its flavor. Additionally, the sausage links were crispy and well-executed, further contributing to the overall quality of the meal.
The menu is also well-priced, making this dining experience not only satisfying but also affordable. In summary, my overall experience was outstanding, and I would definitely recommend visiting The Diner for a great meal.
the nostalgic atmosphere and the owner is from our town makes this a must stop. Sandie is just amazing she puts her heart and soul into keeping this diner rolling in our community.
Awful service

One word: FANTASTIC. My wife and I went here after walking up and down Main Street once we finished our last trip of this year to the Farmer's Market. I ordered what I always order, the Biscuits and Gravy with a side order of Hash Browns, and my wife had a Cheese Omelet. From the food to the conversation we had with the waitresses as well as with Sandy, we had a wonderful experience -- so much so that we both thought that going back more regularly was in order. There's something about sitting at the counter and having a meal while talking to the employees that's very comforting...it's something that's sadly lacking nowadays, at least in my opinion, and is a throwback to a bygone era where strangers at a small restaurant would actually engage with each other over a meal. I find, as I get older, that places like The Diner are more and more appleaing...not just for the ( wonderful ) food but also for the atmosphere.
Thanks to all who made this morning's meal an amazing one -- we will DEFINITELY be coming back !! ??

The food is good and the place is clean but me and my mother and brother are homeless and there’s a homeless thing where people can use tickets and get free food, the booths were all taken as usual and we sat in the chairs in front of the counter, and we had our tickets the waitress came and put them up, the cook turned around and said “where you here before?” And we said yes because we were there on Saturday LAST WEEK and she said “oh you can only come here once a week.” Which we ate last week. So we had to leave. If you’re not gonna serve the homeless to eat a little bit of breakfast because they don’t have the money. Don’t give the opportunity.

Old fashioned local diner. The experience was great. The owner was on site and the wait staff were awesome, friendly, knowledgeable and worked together. The food is your basic diner food but done right.
They even offer meals to the homeless. There are rules for this and when I inquired as to how this works the owner explained it and basically once every 7 days an individual can partake in this unique program. For a business owner especially at such a new location this is rare. This uses customer seating , time preparing and the giving away of food. Definitely not a profitable endeavor but obviously the owner cares and is giving back to her community. One wait staff shared how recently they had to enforce the rules need in order to keep the program going. This was not received well by the individuals but the owner and staff want to be able to continue to offer this so hard as it is the rules have to exist and be upheld. I really respect and admire their commitment.
I do not live in this area and we were passing through on our way to a funeral. We had a pleasant breakfast in a fun nostalgic atmosphere. Prices are very affordable and service was fast. I would definitely stop in again. I here the burgers are amazing so I will be back.
