En route to Parker, Arizona, we visited a local cafe for lunch. The outside appearance of the restaurant did not indicate it was open to the public due to a lack of marketing and advertising. Nonetheless, the interior decor was nostalgic, and the staff were friendly and courteous. The locals were also welcoming, discussing a social gathering. Our food was served promptly, looked great, and tasted delicious. read more

Passed through Parker on Sunday 1/04 11.40am. Chose to dine here after driving through Parker a bit and not seeing anything appealing. Extremely clean cafe, friendly and attentive staff. Quick food. Good portions. I love that the hash browns is not an overwhelming amount. The girls were quick to clear empty tables even sweeping the floor. This place is clean with great staff and great food. They have a 'small plates' portion of their menu which I found very helpful for those who do not want to gorge themselves with mounds of food. We would definitely dine here again when driving through. read more

The diner food was good, great service and a quiet ambiance for the morning. A nice way to start the day.

Was in for breakfast this morning with my cousin and my aunt ordered the trough breakfast asked instead of having the regular sausage can I have the spicy sausage I was told yes not made aware that I was going to pay an additional $6 to change the regular sausage to the spicy sausage same amount keep in mind was not extra the exact same amount as they would have used of their regular sausage. Nowhere on the menu does it state that there will be enough charge the waitress never even bother to tell me yes you can do that but it's going to cost you more money. So instead of paying $19.50 I paid a total of $26 that's $6.50 more than the menu price. But it doesn't just stop there nowhere inside the restaurant or on the menu does it state if you will be paying with credit card or debit card there will be an additional 3% of the total added to your check original price on my check was $71 and some change they charged me an extra $2.14 and they call it a surcharge and again nowhere is it posted nor do anybody tell you oh you're going to pay with this okay please be made aware we charge an additional three percent that will be added to your total check first of all it is illegal I've already checked with it that is totally and completely illegal so just be made aware read more

We came in a party of 3 on a Sunday morning. They were not busy, had 4 servers/waitresses. Our drinks came out quickly but after about 13 minutes of not being acknowledged we walked out. Girls were too busy laughing amongst themselves to notice. We've gone before when we come into town for races and have similar service but today was by far the worst. read more

Great service and food! As soon as we walked in, we were greeted and directed to a table. They came to check on us a few times while we were looking at the menu and answered any questions we had. They were extremely on top of it! I had the two eggs scrambled with bacon, hash browns, and a biscuit without gravy. Everything tasted fantastic. Eggs were perfect, bacon was crisp, and hash browns were crisp as well. Biscuit was so yummy and I loved that they brought us honey and butter. Food was delivered quickly after we ordered as well. Again great service! Easy to find parking outside, even when it's busy too! read more

I will always choose to eat here for breakfast or brunch over anywhere else in Parker. The atmosphere is homely, the food is always delicious and staff is kind regardless if you're a local or out of town visitor. The prices are great and menu has a variety for everyone. When waiting, take a look at the decor, it has town history mixed with a little bit of nostalgia read more

Went in for breakfast. Eggs, bacon, tomatoes. Was pretty good. Coffee refills were decently delivered on time. The only complaint would be they don't use REAL BUTTER! And the men's room would be a little tight if you're above normal weight. read more

We love this small town diner. This is our breakfast spot when we're in town. Fast and friendly service. The food is made to order and piping hot. There is parking in the front and back (use the back parking lot if you're pulling a trailer, there's plenty of room) read more

Well the ol' timers are gone, but the family is still running this great Breakfast place. Been coming for years mostly breakfast, but lunches are good to, just a bit more pricey since the last trip out. May our sweet short elderly waitress rest in peace. read more

Service was nice, food was ok, but the restaurant is sooo dirty. The carpet is blackened

I am puzzled to see how this place received such good reviews with such tasteless food. The pancakes were paper thin and looked like they were made in advance and just warmed up. The ham steak that apparently they are known for was cold in the middle. Come on people :(. There has to be some descent breakfast places in the area. read more

Awesome food great customer service highly recommend best chicken fried steak in town

Amazing food! Everything we've eaten here is delicious! Friendly and efficient service. We will be back!

Stopped in for breakfast this past weekend because my dad raves about their ham and eggs. Says it's monster and oh so good. I was impressed with how delicious our breakfast was. My steak and eggs was killer!!! Yummmy!!! The servers there are all so friendly and efficient with your order. Attentive to our table with several coffee top offs and asking often how we were doing and if we needed anything. Will definitely be back when in town! read more

We stumbled onto this place while looking for a local cafe. It will definitely not be our last time to eat here when we are in the area. The service is prompt and friendly, prices are reasonable, the food is really good, and the portion sizes are generous. I ordered a chicken fried steak with hash browns, eggs, and a biscuit with gravy for breakfast. My order came on three plates because it was so large. The chicken fried steak was the best I can remember! The total bill for two adult breakfasts with coffee was a reasonable $22. read more

This is one of our favorite places to have breakfast. Customer service is awesome and the portions are nice. I love their sausage patties (but they are very spicy) today we ordered a side of ham. It was $8.00 but totally worth it. Breakfast for two kids and four adults just under $70. read more

Looove this place!! My mom and I usually come here after church and I only get the grilled cheese and fries with a root beer and the root beer is probably the best I've ever had and the grilled cheese & fries is amazing! Also, whenever they see us coming, one of the men who works there always opens the door for us because I'm in a wheelchair which is super nice. Highly recommend this place! read more

Super cute, Mel's diner type of place. The biscuits and gravy are amazing. The people are super friendly, The water lady Dorothy reminds me literally of a throw back from an older time. I really wish people still had diners like this at home. I will be back when we are in Parker. read more

On our way home from the river, we stopped to get breakfast at this little spot. It's no taj mahal and looks exactly as you'd expect a random coffee shop in the desert to look with exactly the kinds of local characters you'd expect here. Minus a crazy guy who sells squirrels in the desert. I was hoping to see one of those guys. But really it's tourists and local old people when you walk in with the raspy voiced spark plug waitresses you'd expect. It's as if they were lifted out of a cliche tv show. The food isn't fancy or spectacular but you'll be full until you get to your next stop. They don't do things like egg whites and health doesn't seem very high on the list but they've got decent spicy sausage and eggs. And they've got a bottle of tapatio on the table. Do not use the restrooms. I found them to be diiiiiiiiirrrrrttttyyyy and to seriously reek. In fact, I wanted to scrub a lot of this place down. But they didn't poison me. read more

Best family owned breakfast restaurant in the United States. Great food fair prices. Great people.

We stopped in on our way home from Lake Havasu. We figured it would be good since all the cops in the region were eating there too. The coffee was good, but they don't have creamer however the offer milk. I ordered the spicy sausage and eggs breakfast and my friend ordered the mini chicken fried steak and eggs. My meal was 'flavored' spicy versus hot. Mine was very yummy and so was my friends BUT I wouldn't describe it as a 'mini'. There was a lot of food. read more

I'll start with a positive.... the people were nice. I wouldn't feel right if I didn't put this information out though. Especially during Co-Vid times. There was a short haired lady "Donna" bussing tables. She would take the unused jelly packets off the dirty plates and put them in her pocket, then scrape the food off the plates in to the trash. In her defense she did a pick up a dirty rag off the counter and wipe her hands with it. Then she would take the previously plated jelly packet from her pocket and throw it back in their jelly stock, which was systematically placed on each top piece of toast to be served. But, that's not all then a customer came in with his dog and sat with his dog in the seat with him and his paws on the table, while petting his dog (Yep, dog hair floating in the air!). Then the short haired lady went to the trash and picked through it to find some scraps for the dog. After that, she went and poured a glass of milk and grabbed silverware to set the table for the next customers. She didn't wash her hands at all the whole time we were there nor did she use sanitizer. She would go bus more tables, serve drinks, grab lemons and put them in the drinks, pick up all unused jelly packets and return them to the stock supply, and just kept running this routine the whole time we were there. The really nice lady (Grandma) behind the register would take the money from the paying customer and make change, then turn around and butter the toast and you guessed it.... yep, grab a jelly packet and promptly put it on top of the toast. She would ring up the next customer and then grab the plates and run them to the tables. She never washed her hands or used sanitizer either. But, the people were really nice, they kept checking on us and made sure we had all we needed. We waited for our food and carefully picked through it and ate a little. After we paid the short haired lady had already promptly picked up our plates and was telling the man with the dog that some really nice people had ordered the chicken fried steak and had left quite a bit. She said she would cut the piece that wasn't touched and box it up to take home to her...not sure if "her" was his wife or his dog.... but either way, oh my! Keep in mind this lady dig through the trash, touched silverware, lemons, jelly packets, cups, apple juice container, milk carton, refrigerator door handles and served people as well. If this doesn't bother you then you should enjoy this family cafe'. read more

We stopped for lunch. I had the Chili beans husband had the pastrami sandwich, friend had Chinese chicken salad. The chili beans were embellished so it didn't taste like right out of the can. The pastrami sandwich was yummy and it was served with tater tots, crispy yummy tater tots. The Chinese chicken salad looked very good and the dressing was sooo good. Well worth the time. read more
