I looked up diners and Yelp came through with this spot! When you're pulling up the the location you wouldn't think that there's a bomb breakfast spot in the area but OMG this place is fantastic! Small hole in the wall type spot but everything wad great. Solid stream of folks coming in and glad we beat the rush before it was a 30-40 min wait! Service, the sweetest servers! Charming and just overall nice, you know you're being taken care of with them. Renee made great recommendations and we got an omelet (forgot which one...it was a supreme/something omelet towards the top of the menu) and my hubby got a club sandwich! Omelet was cooked perfectly and they were not cheap on the meat! My hubbys club sandwich was HUGE! You must get the loaded hash browns, they are incredible!! Will definitely come back!

My husband loves chicken fried steak, yet I'm not a fan so we got both kinds (one with and one without). The waitress asked, "Are you sure, it's huge on a 13" x 9" platter". We didn't expect the platter was an actual 13" x 9" lasagna pan .. lol Yes, they are about $40 each, but look how huge. Absolutely amazing taste, wonderful customer service, and very nice small cafe environment. Well worth drive and we now have a ton of leftovers (bonus, I don't have to cook for next couple days)

I also tried the blackberry stuffed French toast--it was a bit of a gamble on my part. It had good flavor overall, and the blackberries inside were nice, but the texture was inconsistent. One portion was gooey, while other parts were very hard, and the crust itself was cold in spots. It made it somewhat difficult to eat. I think it could've used more cinnamon as well. It wasn't bad, but I don't know if I'd order it again. The coffee was a bit watery, but the prices were very reasonable for everything

Handicap friendly. The staff is always super friendly, welcoming and knowledgeable about the menu. I have a few allergies and they always either accommodate or recommend dishes. Including vegan/vegetarian friendly (yup thats right) Their coffee is a sip of comfort and home. Its always hot and never bitter. Their food is vast way better than other diners in the area. The prices are also solid. I had their chorizo Benedict with avocado and fruit on the side. I thought I wouldn't finish it but I couldn't stop eating haha I was stuffed at the end. The ambience is very country. The fireplaces were on and I love that their music is never loud so it helps to have the conversation going. I totally recommend you stop by for brunch, lunch or dinner one day. You wont regret it.

I ordered a skillet with cheddar and the reciept shows cheddar and it also shows no cheese. I chose the specific cheese. Then the site adds no cheese when the reciept clearly states the cheese type. The mgr josh is a dumb fuck. He spent the conversation trying to blame that on me when the same thing happened before. I ordered a meal with no spinach and get home with spinach on it. Call and tell him and he says there's no spinach with that meal. It clearly states it on the menu. He again tries to claim it's not their fault. He needs to fix their online ordering portal. Not to mention the food is dry and wilted looking when it's to go.

Bacon was undercooked and requested it to be cooked a bit crispier, so the two orders that went back were DEEP FRIED and not eatable. Gravy and biscuits looked and tasted like the instant kind. Toast was stale. We actually left three plates of food on the table...not even touched. This establishment needs attention. No wonder they never seem busy. Very friendly and polite waitress.

Great local spot for breakfast!…read more I did drive passed it, it's pretty inconspicuous, but, after a quick u turn I found front row parking and we went inside. Seating is limited-three booths, a handful of counter seats and a table outside-so we were fortunate to walk in just as a booth opened up. From everyone else's reviews, it sounds like there can sometimes be a wait, but for us the planets aligned, and we sat pretty quickly. The menu is standard diner fare done well. If you are looking for sexy, avant-garde food, this ain't it. If you want a stick to your ribs meal that will sustain you for your adventure of the day, you are in the right place. It reminds me of how my grandma would cook breakfast, big portions, and big flavor. Bring your big appetite. Everyone is really friendly, be it the folks behind the counter or the folks in the booths. This is obviously a neighborhood favorite, and you can tell.

Both my husband and I noticed that everything had a metallic "off" taste... kind of what we imagine a problem with the grill might cause. They probably haven't properly seasoned the grill, is my guess. They also don't seem to know how to make hollandaise sauce, either, which was watery and the butter had separated out from the sauce. I wound up with diarrhea later. The dishes were ready VERY QUICKLY... too quickly... which suggested that the food may not have been made fresh which could be what allowed the food to cause illness. I'm not sure how this place is getting 5 stars from other reviewers.
