Howie's Diner is not too bad for a truck stop diner. It looks like they're putting some money back into this location with the new pumps, which is a positive sign. The breakfast meal I had was good, and the pricing isn't too hard on the wallet. Overall, I was pleased with my breakfast and would consider stopping by again.

Goetta and blueberry pancake.

Service very friendly and quick. Food was great and plentiful. Pancake lopped over the edge of the plate, goetta was crispy. Recommend!

Hoosier Eggs Breakfast

I've lived within a few miles of Howie's Diner for YEARS (I drive by it every single day), and I'm so mad at myself that it took me so long to stop in and try it out. My boyfriend and I were craving a hearty breakfast meal - not a chain restaurant - and he suggested Howie's. Honestly, I was hesitant to agree because this place is quite literally inside of a gas station / truck stop. Let me just say, I am SO glad I was talked in to going here and I can't wait to go back again and again. The service was great! Our server was friendly and attentive. They have GREAT coffee - I know it isn't hard to make a cup of coffee but Howie's coffee is something special. I ordered the Hoosier Eggs Breakfast with a side of goetta and it was delicious. I was starving and barely finished half of my meal because it was so much food. They offer a lengthy menu with great lunch/dinner options that I can't wait to try soon. I'll definitely be back to Howie's!

Howie's is your classic, American diner serving up home style and hearty meals 24/7. The couple of times I've visited this establishment has been during breakfast and both times have been excellent. The waitresses are friendly and the food comes out quick. Located adjoining a gas station, it's a local pit stop for truckers and locals looking to grab a hot and fresh meal. But don't be fooled by the locale, this diner is well deserving of many praise and will fill an empty stomach. The portions are generous and the food is fresh. The warm, Homemade biscuits are some of the best in the area. The restaurant is clean and can get busy during brunch but it's usually quick to get a table. Give this place a visit if you're looking to cure a hangover or just need a nice meal served alongside some friendly faces. I'll certainly be back again and supporting local business always feels better than some of the dollar menu conglomerates.

Food is always good. No matter what time it is. It's like Waffle House but better. But the flies are really bad

Truckers breakfast and biscuits gravy service is your typical hometown diner feel. Waitresses are always so polite and fast acting.

We were here on a Saturday night and it was pretty busy. The weight wasn't too bad at 30 minutes…read more Quaint little town it's in Lawrenceburg. They have a decent beer selection, which I like. They have stout on the menu. I'm not as much of an IPA guy. I got the Baja tacos and they were delicious. They had an excellent mango in the salsa. My older two girls shared a Meatball flatbread. It's crust is made with cauliflower so it's healthy. I didn't even taste it when I snagged a slice. They liked it. My sweetie, got the bacon, avocado chicken club. When I ask her what she thinks about it, she looks at me while chewing and gives me a thumbs up, but does not stop chewing. She has an extra light in her eye and a smile on her face. My German grandmother would call that the pinnacle of love. The Littles got mini cheeseburgers with mashed potatoes and they seem to have enjoyed it. They're hitting it pretty hard. The server was pretty cool. He's a bit of an old dude but down to earth, straightforward, and nose, his stuff. If you ask my youngest, she says he looks like he's been to outerspace, but I would say he looks like a solid fireman to me. The service was decent, the atmosphere is great, our server was excellent, and the food was delicious. Totally worth coming back too.

First things first: service was excellent. No complaints on that front…read more But! (But!) I ordered an extra side of asparagus, and for $4 extra, I received a whopping total of 6 pieces of asparagus. Talk about a ripoff. I understand that margins in the restaurant industry are tight, but if they're that tight on a dish, don't offer it. I am so disappointed (and a little irked), that I paid so much to receive so little. My partner got the chicken tenders, which they described as extremely tough and chewy. Additionally, my dining companion and I were seated directly in front of the door, which made for a very chilly dinner. Overall, a disappointment, and I'm not sure that I'll be back.

Waffle House - Waffle skin.

Starting my vacation on Christmas Day was a shot in the dark. I knew going into it that my meals…read moremight be limited to gas stations and/or whatever I found on the side of the road. Imagine my surprise when I found out that the Waffle House was open! Let's be serious, we aren't surprised. Waffle House has no family. Upon entering, there is no mistake where you are. Lights, windows, floor tiles. Everything checks out. You could scrub the name off everything at this establishment and the moment you walked in you would say, "oh, yeah. Waffle House. Nice." Some things just have That Look™ or Those Patrons™ or That Lawsuit™. Everything you've read about this place is true. In every location. Everywhere. Patron get a waitress pregnant? Check. Cook fistfight man parking his car? Check. Waffle with a cigarette butt cooked into it? Check. My saying is usually "hope for the worst, it's the least that can happen." Knowing the bare minimum for Waffle House will set you right up for experiencing their bare maximum. And that's exactly what I got! I ordered 1 (one) waffle, (2) Eggs, and (sausage). I'm a bacon man through and through, but the Waffle House Deities™ were whispering in my ear. Or screaming from the kitchen. I did not order the sticky table. That came as a bonus for dining there. The food came out and was not disappointed. The eggs were flat top grilled. Probably by a man working under an alias and getting paid cash under the table. They were a good constancy. A little S-n-P, and down the hatch they went. The sausage patties were round. As patties usually are. Don't let the dry, bland exterior food you. These actually had some good flavor. The kind of flavor you get from a cook with one hand. The waffle had a brown skin on it. Whether or not it came from the wild that way, nobody knows. The sound my knife made, scraping my butter across it was the type of sound a cook that works a lifetimes of close-opens makes. Flavor: 9/10 Atmosphere: 8/10 Food appearance: 5/10 Ruffians cooking your food: 12/10 (probably)

Me and my wife went to eat out to be together in each other's warm embrace. The food was really…read moregood, hot, and satisfying. The service was top notch! I will never understand why people call it the awful waffle.
