So today we went to this restaurant for lunch we were both very hungry cuz we had to spend the morning taking care of business with my older brother and a few other things so we were looking forward to a nice meal. My wife ordered a bacon cheeseburger the only extra thing she asked for was mayonnaise, and she had fries with that. I had a mushroom and Swiss and I asked for a couple slices of bacon to be put on it and I had hash browns with cheddar cheese. One of the occurrences then was that the people that came in after us got served first. This did not make my wife nor I happy but we left it go. I believe the explanation the waitress gave for that was that because it was later in the day the hash browns and cheese and the mayo through them for a loop and caused it to be later. When we got our plates both plates had a pile of sliced pickles on the plate. Which came with a fair amount of pickle juice my wife was appalled because she hates pickles the bun was soaked with pickle juice the fries are soaked with pickle juice so everything tasted like pickles. So we informed the waitress and my wife said she wouldn't eat her because of it. I had to eat some of it because I was starving but then I stopped because it was intolerable the taste of pickles on everything. So both the waitress and the cook put it on us that we were supposed to tell them we didn't want pickles when we didn't know they put them on there. I don't know what to say beyond this besides I'm not a mind reader didn't know you put pickles on them and usually when you ask what you want on your burger you list off the things that would be put on the burger this was not done. And added note was that the cook said they've been putting pickles on things since whenever which is not true I've been going to that restaurant at least maybe three times a year had burgers omelets a variety of things and I never had a pile of pickles and pickle juice on my plate I can guarantee so we left without paying for the food even though they did make my wife another Burger she was not able to eat it with the atmosphere that had been created by their attitude towards us.it's like no one wants to be responsible for their actions so they put it on the customer to know what they're going to do. Just thought I'd put this out there.

This is how diners should be run. Everyone’s family here. Quality ingredients, fair prices and passion. Bacon is life changing. So is the oatmeal just in a different way.

They love their loyals, and their loyals love them! Small town, home cooked, and fair priced. Be sure to note they do not accept credit/debit.*likely because of fees, be kind!*Also, entrance is NOT accessibleand sort of dangerous. A ramp is advised!Wheelchair accessibility: This place is NOT accessible. There is a steep step up and down in the entrance.This could be an inexpensive fix and would VASTLY improve the experience.This is also potentially VERY difficult for people using canes or other devices mor mobility.

This cleverly hidden little hole in the wall restaurant will blow your mind! The food is amazing. The prices are on point, but don't forget to bring cash because that's all this restaurant takes.(or checks) The smell hits you when you walk in the door! The service was rapid, the food was just as fast. The bacon looked homemade. It deserved its own review! Amazing I'll be coming back again and again! Best breakfast I've had in quite some time! Keep up the good work guys!Kid-friendliness: There were kid colored pictures on the wall. I don't have kids but it seemed very kids friendly.

The waitress/cook with the red hair always treats us amazing! I recommend the eggs Benny or the delicious French toast with berries. The French toast takes a little longer but it's suuuuper worth it. I tend to like to sit at the wrap around breakfast counter and everyone is super friendly, have had some fun conversations with some of the regularsDo note it's cash only! Just remember to bring cash

Good atmosphere, delicious pancakes, just don't order "steak". I got my steak breakfast and they serve me a greasy ground beef patty as a "steak". But the rest of the food and service was pretty good.
