We come into town once a year for a big family reunion and Diner 31 is our last stop before we head home. Again, a year later Queen Elizabeth is still here with warm welcoming smiles and Z is here doing a great job as well. The kitchen staff is amazing and although very short staffed, the team worked effectively and diligently to ensure our food was perfect and our time spent with them is memorable. Be sure to stop in and say hello while supporting locals! They rely heavily on tourism in the summer and delivering the best service possible! Always remember to continue to be kind to one another. Until next year Diner 31!! Keep up the GREAT work!

The food was really good. The grilled chicken was some of the best I've tasted for wraps. It had a nice flavor and was very filling. It's got an older vibe to the place and you self seat. It is smaller so it could be hard to find a table during rush hour. Definitely would go back.

Menu

Simple but delicious fare. Great coffee and service! We are here for a week and will return again tomorrow. The waitress is a sweet and sleeps your coffee cup full.

A nice quaint place. Very clean and open feeling. I loved the decorations and signage! I have a small compliant. I have no issue with places changing their menus. However if you went through the effort to print the menu, then please update your online menu. I cane here to try the Monte Cristo. However it's no longer on the menu! Instead I ordered a BLT ($10). It was a very good sandwich! It wasn't a Monte though! The service was excellent, with jokes included free of charge. Overall a 4 star review. Would I return? If I lived in the area, then yes. It seems like a consistently good place. Since I don't live in area and would probably only be passing through,  probably not. I'd probably try somewhere else.

Excellent food, friendly service. The biscuits and gravy were generous and yummy. Even the basic bacon and eggs were delicious.

Walking into this place, you understand that is completely a local's bar. It's the kind of place…read morefor people bring a deck of cards, or talk union business at the bar. I had barely set foot in the door when the two bartenders at the bar greeted me warmly and welcomed me in and told me I could sit anywhere I wanted. I sat at the bar and as recommended by a local, I ordered the pepper jack crab soup, which was delicious. One thing to be aware of: don't expect real crab in the soup. Imitation only. But it's plentiful and delicious on a frigid winter day. The bartender recommended the roasted chicken or the perch, and living near another great lake and always having ready access to perch, I decided on the broasted chicken. I was not disappointed. It came with four pieces, choice, potato, and a choice of another side. It was way too its food, but I ate more than I thought they would because it was that good. I will definitely return to the painted lady!

Look, pal. Nothing really beats a hole in the wall pub. I'm a little huss for some good down to…read moreearth bar food, ask my mum. Situated on a corner where two roads meet, this place has all the fixin's of a place with stuff on the walls. Classic hole in the wall pub decor, classic hole in the wall pub tables and chairs. It's one of this places where when you walk in, you're there. Locals, strangers, friends, enemies, lovers. They're all there. So come on in, pull up a stool, and let's get down to business. I will say service was great. I may be a little biased as the waitress said I was the only one in her section. But I'm going to instead assume it's because I'm such an amazing patron. Hilarious and handsome to boot. Or at least the hilarious part. Hokay. So. As much as I'm a huss for bar food, I'm even hussier for wings. So, naturally I ordered the wings. Bone in, as god intended. Buffalo sauce, as Darwin intended. They came perfectly saucy, perfectly temperatured, and perfectly in a little bowl kind of thing. They were meaty and juicy. Loved the flavor. I would eat my body weight in them, and my body weight is not small numbers. I kept the main course simple. Half pound burger, deluxe (lettuce, mayo, tomato, onion). Added mustard. Ketchup's on the table. Then as my side I got the sidewinder fries which are kind of like spiral potato wedges. The burger was pretty decent. The size was good, but the flavor was a little underwhelming. I'm pretty sure the patty was one of those pre-made deals that come in packages. I could be wrong, but that's just what it looked like. Regardless, if I had ordered a burger that was more of a specialty, there might have been more flavor involved. The fries though were pretty good. They're thiccc. Thick fries save lives. I have been here before, a couple times, and would certainly come back as their menu does have a wide variety of food. Don't be bashful. Creationism wings: 10/10 Burger WOW factor: 6/10 Chonky potato wedge spiral fries: 10/10

We stopped in for lunch before taking a drive to explore the area, visiting from Dearborn MI. I had…read morea delicious bowl of cheddar broccoli soup that was on point for flavor and consistency. Then a wonderful Mexican type salad with ample: sautéed onions and peppers, corn, black olives, cheddar cheese and a spicy chipotle ranch dressing. I added grilled chicken breast and it was very tasty and filling. My sister enjoyed a Nashville Hot chicken sandwich and she said it was also fantastic. An ample size chicken breast breaded and sauced well, lettuce, tomato plus a firm but soft bun that held up nicely. She had tots as a side which made for a great meal. Our server was very pleasant, personable and attentive at just the right times. The ambience was a rich wood decor: floor, walls, booths, tables and chairs. But a warm atmosphere with black accents, comfortable seating. There were stairs to enter with railings but I might have missed a more mobility accessible entrance. I recommend calling if this is a detail you need. They're great for groups as the place was packed on Mother's Day when we first attempted to eat there. So glad we went back and I'm sure this will be a sure spot to eat when we're in town again.
