Fried Steak and Eggs. Hashbrowns and rye toast
Tashina R.

You could tell the place is understaffed - but everything was clean and everyone was super polite. Our server was nice and our food was good. No complaints.

The famous groundhog
Aaron F.

My husband and I walked in and we were seated right away. I has breakfast and my husband had country fried streak with stuffing and mashed potatoes. He absolutely loved it! The waitress even though she was cleaning up, she made sure we had everything we had. Very good wait staff. Definitely would try again.

There isn't much around here, but this is the best all-around diner. Usual breakfast and other diner fare. Fridays are best for fish.

Overpriced. Cold food. Terrible buffet. I only give 2 stars instead of one because the servers were friendly.

First of all the parking lot was jammed pack (which is normally a good sign food is delicious). I'm a sucker for foot longs and not someone claiming foot longs and instead it's just 2 hot dogs. No they legit have the footlongs. I also love chili sauce so when I have a new chili dog to try, imma try it! If you like a slight sweetness and a hint of cinnamon then this sauce is for you! It was a good sauce, not my favorite chili sauce but it was a yummy sauce. My husband loved it! There curly fries aren't like your normal curly fries they are fresh cut, so they are thinner for a crispier fry. I'm not a fan of fresh cut fries but I didn't realize it would be. All in all I would definitely recommend and definitely plan on going back. Believe or not it's actually a cheap place! I absolutely suggest you go!

I wasn't sure if they did carry out and the contact us was an email. On a holiday weekend I really wasn't optimistic I'd hear anything. But in a few short minutes Jeremy responded and said they do carry out orders unless there is a line waiting, then they couldn't promise. He gave a number to call for ordering. Upon calling the staff was friendly and helpful and said they would wait to put our order in as we were 30 min out and wanted our food hot. It was ready on arrival and were also able to get carry out beer. She included plastic ware in case we needed it. Food was hot, fresh and delicious. Would definitely go back if we were in the area again. Thanks for a great fast experience.

It's a good portion too, I did not plan on finishing it but couldn't help myself.. so delicious. BBQ Pulled Pork Bacon & pretzel melt. Was well made, moist and the BBQ sauce was sweet but not too sweet. The blend of Savory from the bacon and sweet from the BBQ sauce made this a great choice. The Classic burger was also scrumptious. It was slightly over cooked past Med to well done. But other than that. It was yummy. Service - Food was made in a timely manner and delivered to the table hot. was mainly attentive but we really only got water- so we made that pretty easy- lol. The ambiance was so great- gave a great feel of a hometown brewery / Tavern. Fantastic!

I was looking for a place with a hearty vegan option half-way between Toledo and New York City…read morewithout going too far off the highway and it seemed like Station 101 would fit the bill- a Black Bean Burger made in house, some tasty nacho options, and I even called ahead to confirm we could get a hearty vegan option, and confirmed it was! Yay! Unfortunately, when we arrived, the last Bean Burger had been sold and the black beans listed as a side were actually cooked in some heavy butter... so it became one of those stops where only French fries were the hot vegan option... because who wants a cold salad when it's 20°F?! In any case, the server was very nice about it and the Craft Beer was still vegan, and because we called ahead about the vegan burger option, they even comped the fries for running out. So- disappointed it wasn't as hearty as we hoped for a vegan on our arrival- but very kind to apologize with comped fries. For those who weren't vegan- the French Dip on ciabatta was on special and sooooo good. I don't like horseradish and it didn't overwhelm the flavor, so it was absolutely perfect! The pulled pork melt with crispy fried onions and bbq sauce was also excellent with a very crunchy buttered thick Texas toast bread. Excellent food when it's available- and hoping for a few more vegan options because Pennsylvania towns are a bit of slim pickings if you don't want to eat animal products!
