No skimping on anything! Definitely worth the trip if you're not living nearby. More folks working here to prepare and serve up these delicious breakfast dishes than places threefold bigger. The deco plastic lights and Drink Coca-Cola sign give this hobbit home just the right amount of atmosphere. read more

My family and I have been coming here for quite a few years now and this place never disappoints us! The food and service is always fonominal. I have some issues with dairy and they are always so accommodating. Definitely one of my favorite places! Sitting outside when it's cool is so nice. You can see the Superstitions! read more

I LOVE this place so much, the staff is always friendly, the food is so delicious and they are very quick with their service, me and my bf sit in the patio and it's always one of our favorite breakfast spots here in AJ. Love it!! read more

Was in town for a wedding and it was my first time here. Was looking for where the locals went and I was so happy I found this place. The pricing on breakfast was very good and I was pleased with the food and the hash brown casserole was delicious. They have a casserole option instead of plain hash browns. We got our food pretty quick and check out was easy too since you can check out at your table with their portable check out device. There is outdoor seating but I choose to sit inside since it was the morning and the middle of December. If I am ever in Apache Junction, I will stop by again. read more

Great little place to grab breakfast after a walk around the lake. We sat outside with our dogs and the service was quick, attentive, and the food was good. Nothing overly special but sometimes you just need that home cooked style breakfast that doesn't disappoint. read more

Stopped in for lunch on a Sunday post hiking in the Superstition Mountains. Arrived around 11:30am - there was a wait to get a table, but not more than 10 to 15 minutes. The menu covers breakfast and lunch. Base description is that is covers the normal items you would see at breakfast/lunch joint. I went for a Reuben with tater tots. It was pretty good. The break was grilled crispy and there was plenty of corned beef. The tater tots were just that - tater tots. They were crispy and hot. The place was fine. My food was good. It is definitely a local type place. N*joy.. read more

Great little Mom & Pop breakfast place! Seems to be a locals favorite with inside and outside dining. The cheesy hash browns put Cracker Barrel to shame! read more

My husband and I are now locals and have been coming here for years! It reminds me of back home in Georgia. Southern Hospitality but in the desert! Great food, service is always on point! I will forever support this local hot spot! We've since taken our little one and is always our go to family breakfast (or lunch) spot. If you're in town and want a classic "diner" breakfast, come here! You won't be disappointed. read more

Food was great and was served very quickly after ordering! Our server - Chloe was excellent in every way! Very unique special for breakfast! Eggs were cooked to perfection! Ambiance is nothing special but prices are very fair and so are the serving sizes! read more

Great and reasonable pricing. Good atmosphere nice conversations, good friends. Great food. If you have a Coke, they will offer you a Coke to go for free. How could anyone go wrong with that deal? read more

What a hidden gent!! My husband and I went hiking in the superstitions and were craving a beer. Burger and fries. So I googled great burger places and Hackers Gill popped up. We decided to give it a try and so glad we did. Got there a little before 1:00pm and was informed by a customer that our timing was great because around noon there is a 24 minute wait. We ordered the deluxe burger with fries and it was absolutely delicious!! Juicy burger with lettuce that wasn't limp and a huge portion of crinkle cut fries! We sat outside on the patio and enjoyed the sunshine. Our waiter was pleasant and on point with his service. AND you can get breakfast up till 2pm. So if we do an early morning hike we know where to grab breakfast!! We will definitely be back!! read more

We went here for years then moved out of the area. Used to love it there. Stopped here this morning when in the area. Breakfast was lukewarm and tasteless. A couple hours later both husband and I had stomach pains and nausea. Don't know what happened but we won't be back. read more

Good food, fair prices. It's off the beaten path. Lots of locals. Sat to the left, sorta in the back, no ambiance there, suggest sitting in the main area past the check-in read more

This place puts all other quick breakfast places to SHAME. They have a friendly and quick staff, food came very quickly and it was FRESH CRISPY chicken friend steak. Everything was hot out of the fryer! We loved it. Very generous portions as well. The best part is a fed my family of 4 for $45 before tip. Great Value! read more

Well we liked this place enough to go back the next day for a hearty breakfast. Seems to be a local favorite haunt with many rv parks in the area- snowbirds galore. No fancy pants stuff here, this is good old American grub, comforting, hot and served amazingly fast by the friendliest most efficient staff we've ever encountered. Their cooks must be ninja because both times food was hot and fast. This well oiled machine staff gave each others backs, making sure everyone is taken care of- they should be proud! No wonder people return- it's like a normal diner appearance, but the food and service are worth the wait since it's not as long as it looks due to their efficiency. Prices very good, and though it's not relevant they stock the softest toilet paper - they cater to older clientele who like old fashioned service and good value, and they absolutely pull it off with aplomb! read more

Food was great , Service was top Notch , way better then the last place the Family and I went to the other night , Great place to be if you're ever in the area ! read more

Hi Ya'll, The "D&D Yelping Duo Team" visited arguably one of the BEST breakfast grills in AJ! Top is the #6- Waffle, 2 scrambled eggs, bacon and what we call "Hacker Hash browns" aka cheesy hash browns. Bottom is the Combination platter-3 chicken strips, 3 jumbo shrimp, 3 hush puppies and crinkle cut fries, and ranch (yes I'm from the Midwest). The platter normally comes with slaw, I asked if I could substitute for cocktail sauce. Dad had coffee with non dairy half & half. I had a Diet Coke. Go get ya some :) read more

Whenever I visit my friend in AJ, I always make it a point to go to Hackers grill for a good breakfast to start my day off...the waitstaff are good, fast, and friendly... they will tell you what the daily special of the day is... It's popular with the people in the area as it's been there quite some time. The place is on the small side, in my opinion, but that is fine, there's plenty of seating outside as well... Give it a try ! read more

I was in Apache Junction fit work. I invited some colleagues to breakfast and chose the Hackers Grill based on 4 Stars. It is off the beaten track in a dead end street. Simple and rustic. S soon as I entered I was greeted by the hostess. We were seated and immediately asked for what we wanted to drink. I chose the coffee ("the best in the city"). It was party good. I ordered the make you own omelet (which was more like a scramble) with chorizo, jalapeños, mushrooms, and sausage. It was delicious. It came with cottage cheese (optional side) and English muffin. The eye 3-4 bread options. My colleagues had the corned beef hash and the chicken fried chicken. Portions were good and ample, the service was very good and attentive. There were condiments, jelly packets, coffee creamer and sweetener at each table. I would highly recommend this diner for breakfast or lunch. read more

After a surprisingly competent experience at the AJ dmv, I decided to reward myself with a decent breakfast. Found this place on Yelp, 2 minutes away. Friendly greeting, asked if I wanted a Booth or counter, went right up and sat down. Coffee immediately, ordered the country fried steak plate. What a surprise! Tender, crunchy, perfect steak covered in a tasty sausage gravy. Crispy hash browns, my eggs over medium, and marble rye toast. Cholula hot sauce on the counter! Friendly waitress kept my coffee hot True efficient diner food and service. Priced right! Will most definitely be returning. read more
