I was looking for a place that served buckwheat pancakes, which is something the community of…read moreKingwood, WV is very proud of. There's even a historical marker about it just a block away from the diner. The Down Home Diner has won some awards, including for their buckwheat cakes. It's basically your small-town diner where there are lots of seniors (most of whom I assume are regulars) and it is small. Which is fine! Service was great and, of course, I had the AYCE buckwheat cakes. This was my first time tasting such thing. They were all great that I walked out stuffed. Be sure to check the hours of the diner - the lady working there told me they used to have longer hours and they used to be open during suppertime, but they couldn't find reliable help. I hope that changes!

Great place to eat. Service is always kind and fast. Me and my Grandpa love this place. If your are…read moreever in the kingwood area, you have to stop.

Had I found…read morethis restaurant at the start of my trip I would have found a way to eat here more than one time. The food is delicious and the staff is AMAZING. It's in a quaint old house that has been turned into an inn. New Orleans inspired food. I had the blue cheese burger and it was the best burger I ever had. The french fries were also amazing. Everything seasoned to perfection. My coworker and I also decided we needed to try desert and beignets were on the menu. We were so happy we didn't get them to share but instead two orders. They were so good and so authentic. If I am ever in the area again I will return and hopefully more than once. YUMMY

I ordered my eggs over medium and they were cooked just right. I also had homefries (declined the gravy that was offered) and sausage patty with toast of my choice and a black coffee. The inside of the restaurant holds 7 extra-wide tables for 4 (but you could stick a 5th at the end, if needed. They also have 2 booths and one large round table seating 6 to 8 people and a small counter of maybe 3 or 4 stools. All and all, I'd definitely go back. Breakfast was good as was the service. The waitstaff was attentive and even offered to give me a coffee to go. I thought that was a nice touch and their prices are competitive. Please note: They do not accept credit or debit cards so be prepared to bring cash along with you. Also, don't GPS the address listed on their facebook page, It'll bring you to a street off Tallsmanville Road. Just take a look at the attached picture for directions.

Food was yummy, a little disappointed because they brought our appetizers and entrees at the same time.
