It's a lot like Rosie's (another great place) you walk in and seat yourself (still a thing I'm getting used to), the menu is huge! Interesting names too! Massive burgers, they don't skimp on the bacon, yummy fries (lacked salt thou). But just a sprinkle and boom shacklaka baby! Hubs has eggs, home fries, sausage (it had a name but I didn't catch it) and a side of sausage gravy and biscuit. (Needed salt) but was delicious for fri dipping. The coffee is good, not bitter at all, the orange juice tastes freshly squeezed. And then you pay upfront and on the way out check out the garden, my husband and I loved the frogs and dogs :-) Definitely top notch!

So the town is a little space when it comes to breakfast dinners. The place itself is old, but cool inside. The service is great. The coffee cups are a little small. So why a 3. Hay, 3 is A OK, which is what this place is. The pancakes were great, the corned beef hash is from a can, okay, but not homemade which is what I would expect. Eggs and bacon were cooked per order. Upside is you can order much and diner items in the AM as well. We did joy but table next to us did. So bottoms line, food was okay, service and price were great. Facility was funky but present. Worth a shot.

We stopped on Super Bowl Sunday evening and enjoyed the delicious Chicken Paprikas and a burger with home fries and gravy. The service-super friendly, the music-perfect, the valentines decorations up and ready for a big food and love fest! Thanks to Chris and all the staff.

This type of place is a favorite of mine. An old time diner with good service, inexpensive and delicious food. Don't expect any thing fancy but do expect to pay little in comparison to chain places for food just as good if not better. The waitresses are friendly and will banter with you if you can play along. On trips back to my hometown of Amherst, Ohio we always make a plan to stop by for breakfast. I get the two eggs (over easy), hash browns, sausage patties with rye toast at the ridiculous price of $5.95. The eggs are always perfect with the yokes good for dipping but not snotty. You get a large potion of hash browns and the sausage patties are the biggest anyplace I've ever eaten. There is more meat that you get on a Big Mac. One review I read said that coffee is expensive for the size of the cup, but they will refill it for free for as long as you sit there and it is pretty tasty diner coffee. The regulars keep it packed early in the morning but by 8:30 am getting a table is not an issue. They always have fresh Lake Erie perch dinners and you owe it to yourself if you are visiting the area to try some of those beauties somewhere for lunch or dinner. Located right on Lake Erie in Lorain, Ohio!

Amazing breakfast spot that I've been coming to since I was a little kid. They have the best food and such a friendly staff. We came for breakfast and our food came out within 5 minutes of ordering it! I love love coming here and have the best memories eating here as a kid. We would always come to Chris' restaurant after church. They are always so busy and you know that's when it's really good. They've been open forever and I'm so happy I can come here when I visit my parents in Lorain. The inside is very clean and cozy. It hasn't changed in so many years and that's what I love about it. I had the veggie omelette with home fries and it was so good. You also can't beat the price. For my mom and I to have breakfast it was only $10! Everything is home made and fresh. It's like grandma's cooking. :) They also have specials certain days of the week that include chicken paprikash and cabbage rolls. I would highly recommend coming here for breakfast - you definitely won't regret it!!

This diner is in walking distance from where my boyfriend lives and well to prove my laziness we drove. The parking lot made us assume it was packed but once we got inside there were still a decent amount of places to sit. You grab your own menus and sit wherever you like. This is a true diner as the only computer system is to swipe credit cards. The servers write down everything and the kitchen uses an order wheel for all orders. I ordered the Country Skillet that included sausage, bacon, onions, hash browns, 2 eggs cooked to order and a lot of cheese (which I like) and 2 pieces of toast. It pretty much was a delicious mess plate! I don't know what kind of sausage they used but it was much better than the brown sausage links I am used to seeing in diners. My boyfriend ordered the Gyro Omelette. The weird thing about this omelette is that it only includes the gyro meat and feta. He had to ask for tomato, onion and cucumber sauce. It must have been good though because he ate the whole thing. The only thing diners should be cautious about when eating here is that the coffee was one of the worst that we have tasted and at $2 it's $2 a cup to boot. Opt for a different beverage because other than that the menu is large and the food is good!

Perch dinner.

I was excited to try Café Blanc because of good things I'd heard and it did not disappoint. There…read moreis plenty of seating, with a second level up a set of spiral stairs. The entire place is neutral colors and even had some cute swing benches. The have a counter you walk up and order at. You get a buzzer that goes off when your food is ready. If you dine in, you eat from real plates and glasses which is nice. They offer a nice selection of to go boxes that you can also grab yourself, too. They don't serve their pizzas until noon, so that's what time we went and what a great decision! I had the Blanc pizza, and requested it well done as my normal preference, and it was delicious. 6 slices, a nice size. Very flavorful and cost $15. I also had the Bacon Cesear Wedge, which was not traditional wedge salad, it was made with romain - that luckily was still very crisp! It was a good portion, but could have been a little cheaper at $16. The bacon was made fresh, it is an open kitchen concept with a window so I literally watched her make it which was refreshing. Overall I have no complaints and look forward to going again soon!

Let me set the scene, it's a Tuesday, early afternoon. 45 degrees f in Cleveland and the sun is…read moreshining! I have a hair appt near by so I got work from here until my appointment. I was skeptical reading the reviews, but this place is fantastic for a daytime cafe. It's Tuesday so the foot traffic is manageable. I asked a lot of questions at the register because it was my first time. The gal working was receptive, authentic and patient. I got the margherita pizza and peanut butter chocolate mousse tart and a rose matcha, iced. The water station is easily accessible. silverware and grab your own boxes Togo , I appreciate that and definitely has to reduce interruptions to staff while they work. There's a window where you can watch the beautiful creations get assembled. Upstairs has a lot of seating, some plugs for devices. Only thing is the stairs feel steep and made me dizzy lol, proceed with caution.
