    Veggie omelet
    Palka M.

    Grabbed some breakfast on the way home from a trip, stopped here to eat and was not disappointed! I got a veggie omelet with biscuits and gravy and it was sooooo good! The veggies were chunky chopped and grilled and smothered in something like kraft cheese/cheese whiz and stuff in the omelet and it was delish! My husband got French toast and he said it was good too!

    Very homey little cafe with home cooked food. Service was good, but this place was busy so the team was rushing around....no complaints at all. Food was really good and place was comfy. We visited during cross country drive, but would go again if in the area. Actually, I was amazed how clean they kept the place considering how busy they were! Kudos to the cook as well, what a pro!!

    Here's u proof rude lady
    Shane P.

    I came in to have a late breakfast and I had my puppy with me. She's only 5 pounds. She's a miniature daschound very polite. Very quiet. I was carrying her. She wasn't walking on the ground. Didn't even have the leash with her. I came in and the lady said is she a service dog? I said yes she is but I don't have my stuff with me because it's home when I came out and was doing something, I forgot I just wanted to have some breakfast she was we can't serve you here because you're not a service dog she embarrassed me in front of a bunch of people. I asked her if I could sit outside on the bench well we don't serve outside and she could see I will just make it to go for you first of all. It's gets a law to turn away people with service dogs and I get that I didn't have my stuff with me, but why would I lie about it and then of course it wasn't like a pitbull. it's a little 5 pound dog that's in my arms that would stay in my arms while I ate. I've been here many times and never been treated like this never with a dog because I recently got treated and was issued this dog as my service dog well, she ruin that she was just fucking rude so anyway I left and now it's time to turn to social media and let I smell like bacon. Let them know how they treat people with disabilities. This dog is saved me in so many ways and for you to turn me away and not let my small little 5 pound companion sit on my lap while I eat breakfast well no more and I hope a lot of other people doesn't do it either. One other thing I posted so many good reviews about this place before and the owner is never responded ever kind of poor business practice. I don't give a shit if you work at the school or not you're gonna run yourself out of business especially when you start screwing with the disability act.

    Lots of customers on Saturday morning.

    Customer service is great! They are short handed. At the start of Covid they had 17 employees. Now, they have 5. Nobody wants to come back to work. Sad really. It's a cute little restaurant. Country diner Regarding fly picture Sorry but since they are short handed food does take a bit longer and gives patrons more time to discover things.

    So quaint. A welcoming place to hangout should there be a long wait time. February 2019.

    The original plan was to have breakfast at "I Smell Bacon," a rustic little greasy spoon, located…read moreright at the Highway 9 exit on US 69. But that didn't work out. The parking lot was packed with cars. A long line of customers were outside, waiting for their turn at the trough. Plan "B." On south to LAKe Country Diner. Turn left on Highway 9 when the traffic clears. Traffic? on Highway 9? Yes, this is Saturday morning. Highway 9 is lined with miles and miles of road side flea markets, junk sales, garage sales, yard sales, and there is always a stationary exercise bike to be found. Some folks just pull off the side of the road and try to sell whatever the hell is in the back of their truck; like pit bull mix puppies, kittens and suspicious looking power tools of untraceable origin (if you know what I mean). Customers were swarming. Parked bumper to bumper in the ditches and shoulder of the road. Pulling out, pulling in. In every direction..... The parking lot at LAKe Country diner was also crowded with cars. Park on the grass. Surprised; the inside of the diner is roomy. Even with the crowd there were plenty of tables and booths available. Seat yourself. The waitresses were having to hustle. Eventually we had coffee and menus. They have an excellent breakfast buffet. Me, sticking with the usual cooked to order. (Check the pictures and video.) I expected a long wait. The meal was on the table in minutes. Prepared exactly as ordered. Good food, good service and they can handle a large volume of customers. Tip: Don't go looking for breakfast on Saturday mornings during flea market season! Oh, and finally the winner of today's best diner table top advertising "Milty the Septic Guy." Milty, for some reason seems like an appropriate nickname for a person in this business. Here is the important part, take note of the PD after his name. That really means something. It means he is licensed to handle crap under pressure! Don't believe that...Google it.

    First time at the all-you-can-eat breakfast buffet. It was really, really good! There is quite an…read moreassortment of foods: 3-4 kinds of scrambled eggs, hash browns, bacon that is cooked crispy and flat, sausage links, biscuits, white gravy, brown gravy, waffles, French toast strips, warm maple syrup, fried potatoes with onions and bell peppers and smoked sausage, and several toppings for the waffles plus a few fruits. It was $12/person and was so good! I'll be back!
