    What I was Ordering... French toast... Pancakes and eggs they ask you before if you would like cinnamon on the French toast.

    Don't sleep on this place Great service... food is made nice and fast great Breakfast for the right price can't really beat it to be Honest smokes Denny's and cracker barrel any day of the week if you ask me. I went right and 7 a.m. was nice and quiet good for a fast or casual Breakfast.

    I never been before but had it bookmarked for years. There's maybe three 2 person tables. The rest is counter service. Maybe 10-12 seats. We arrived around 1pm and had to stand around a few minutes to get 2 seats. Like everyone says. All the waitresses are good looking and young. Its just something you notice. Friendly but slow service. Theres only 1 cook then there's a girl who toasts the bread etc. Worth the wait so pass the time talking to who you're with. Really good breakfast meats and omelettes. Those home fries are delicious. Its the thinly sliced potatoes. Not those cube looking potatoes I can't stand. Options to do half order for just about everything. Cheap prices but its cash only. $18 for breakfast for 2. Definitely worth checking out

    They have a nice juke box, too.

    This is an excellent little diner that's been here for about 60 years. It's been here for 60 years, yet my dumb ass wasn't insightful enough to eat here until last Wednesday. I am remiss. After having a fantastic and FILLING breakfast (Mike's omelette, toast, and home-fries) a few days ago, I told myself that I'd come back soon and try a burger. I told myself that the burger was good, I'd write a review. Well, I did, it was, and I am...I'm sitting here in the parking lot writing this. So, I had the cheese burger...and it was excellent. Like a BumBum Brazil contest, this burger starts out with great meat. It's perfectly cooked (which, for me, means a little pink in the middle and a little crispy around the edges), it's perfectly dressed, and it comes WITHOUT too much bread. Speaking of bread, I paid $6.95 (plus a nice tip for the great waitresses) for two sandwiches and a cup of coffee. Sweet deal. Two sandwiches? I also tried the sausage burger (cheese and pickles on top). It, too, was great. The service was great. The place has a classic diner feel; it shows it's age, but it's perfectly clean...even the dumper. I will definitely be back. 4 stars! The extra (fifth) star is because the juke box is pretty good. Also, Jefferson Express's cabaret-style Ms. Pac-Man machine isn't rigged...and the joystick works...56,000 points baby.

    I got the egg, bacon and cheese breakfast sandwich with a half order of Home fries with onions to-go -- SO good. I 100% recommend. The staff was extremely friendly and their prices are very affordable. I will most definitely be returning soon!

    Good food great people!

    After my first visit and observation I'm reminded of Cheers "Where everyone knows your name" - your…read moregreeted warmly, treated like your family, handled with care. This truly a wonderful experience for all ages and varying tastes. A tremendous and welcome change we've come to endure from other dining experiences. Here the customer is THE primary focus from the moment you walk in til you walk out the door - BRAVO!! The food, had the Mayberry Mega where you pick your 6 omelette ingredients. Normally a crap shoot in most diners but here it was a home run. The ham and sausage were nice size chunks, juicy, and full of flavor. Spinach, onions, and tomatoes were fresh and perfect sizes and good quantities for the dish. That leaves the cheese my one "ding" would have preferred shredded cheese vs sliced cheese because of flavor and texture - but it didn't take away from a wonderfully prepared omelette made and severed with genuine care. Potatoes were frozen BUT they were prepared exceptionally well for dinner dare they were soft and cooked with a nice crisp. It was a superb surprise and a very welcome one. The coffee was fresh and hot and the standard "acidic" coffees you'd find in most diners anywhere, but overall inviting enough to have a few cups for a discerning coffee "snob" like me. Place was PACKED so all tables and booth were full, but they have a nice counter service with plenty of seating and space to move and eat and be very comfortable for your meal. What's fascinating is the incredible teamwork and collective desire to ensure your time, experience, and meal are spent enjoying your company and food not staring at your watch wondering about time. The entire restaurant was seated, served, and cleared with clean tables within the time I had to get and consume my own breakfast. So if you see a packed house on your arrival and don't desire that counter seat fear not - in this home environment your wait will be short and your day will lose no valuable time - well worth some minimal patience - you'll be glad you did. Your greeted as soon as you walk in by one or more of the extremely hardworking waitresses with a smile - your also sent off with a "Thank you. have a Good Day" by one more waitresses as you leave - both excellent touch of service class enhancing customer experience. I've never seen a more well-run diner or any restaurant from the waitresses to the cooks to the dishwashers the teamwork, attention to details, customer satisfaction, and to the incredible cleanliness of the restaurant despite the constant flow of customers - I've never seen a restaurant so clean and kept so clean the out the day. So what are you waiting for come to Mayberry where a warm greeting, clean home, exceptional food are calling YOUR name today...I'm returning perhaps I'll see you there....Bon Appetite!!

    Good diner experience. The service was excellent, with quick service and lots of coffee refills…read more The food was basically what we expected. The egg white veggie wrap was nicely portioned without being over the top; a little mustard and hot sauce was required to complete the profile, but that's fine. The veggie omelette was good, with a big portion of hash browns and a decent quantity of veggies in the omelette. Hot sauce and mustard were also our friend here, but that works for me. The staff were very friendly and attentive, even beyond what we would have expected. All told, this was an excellent experience if you're looking for a fast paced diner breakfast.

There were two people who came before us, and then a group of 14, and then my husband and me, followed by another bunch of people into a restaurant that was already packed. The waitresses did not even bat an eyelid. They were very polite and were busy doing their work. They were helping seat people as well as checking out people who had just eaten. We only waited about 15 - 20 mins. In the meantime, we chatted with the locals, who told us how often they came here just to eat the pies. When we got seated, the first thing we ordered and got started on were the AMAZING pies (chocolate PB for me and custard for my husband). Oh my God, they were out of the world yummy! We got to watch the ladies on the grill as they made the food. My husband ordered he Swiss steak and I had the double hamburger with all the fixings. The food is great but so are the people who work here --they are just so friendly, have worked here for years and truly care. You don't see this anymore. If I lived here, I would come here once a week to chitchat with them and eat PIE!! Make sure you come here. This place is a gem and has been here since 1948.
