The Supreme Skillet was absolutely perfect! Add gravy. Bacon cooked just right too! Everything was just fantastic! It's like an old diner, either a juke box, claw machine, bright lighting, terrific food and excellent service! I really need to make this a regular spot for us!

In the year since we moved to Altoona, this is our favorite place. The staff are consistent and…read morefriendly and quick to bus tables. They are calm when it gets crazy and seem to always be smiling. I've had the chili burger, steak sandwich a few times, the hot ham and cheese, and the tenderloin. Their seasoned fries are so hot and crispy. There are daily specials, and the food is made in-house as opposed to microwaved pre-made food. I believe the owner is named Mark. He cashes people out and cooks. He's very passionate about his business and has every reason to be. We love supporting this business and highly recommend it!

If i ever stayed @ Adventure land you can be sure i would be coming here to get everyone fed! The building looks like they started out as a pizza hut and highly modified it. The interior is super bright and welcoming. On our stop here clear from Indy in one shot this was a very comfortable restaurant to unwind in. I will probably make it a regualr stop on my trips.

Thick cut bacon, rye toast heavily buttered to toasted perfection. You place your order at the counter and pay, they'll give you a numbered table tent and bring your food to your table. Did I mention fresh squeezed orange juice? I'm not sure about the tipping situation, so I did leave a tip. Bartender/server, did coke on over to check on us a couple times and they do clear the tables. However, you retrieve your own refills.

Breakfast has always been my favorite meal and by breakfast I mean eggs, hash browns, bacon or…read moresausage. Sometimes both and when it's cooked by someone else other then Nova or myself. Make no mistake Nova can cook her ass off and when it comes to spoiling me she is undoubtedly the queen. "Are we gonna have breakfast or are you just gonna walk around the house all day in your panties wearing your crown" "Baby Im still hurting from last night. I'm not hungry either. You just go out for breakfast? Ive got a ton to do around here anyway. You go." Its not often she turns me loose in the world on my own but when she does I try to take full advantage of it. Nova actually worked at Hy-Vee a long, long time ago. It was one of her many jobs right after we relocated to Altoona from Kansas City. My buddy Scott met me there a few minutes after I arrived. He sat down and said... "Thinking about God or the concept there of. A being, an energy , a vibration, a collective of all of the above which is beyond the supernatural and the natural simply cannot be defined by either supernatural or natural means, or at all." "Dude, its way to early for your psychedelic third eye bullshit. Just order breakfast" We both ordered the Good N Early, Scott went scrambled, I went over easy. Scott got a Michelada, I went with a bloody Mary. I've said it many times before. Cooking over easy eggs is an art that few can master. They did ok. A little over cooked but actually acceptable. It's a good breakfast in a pleasing setting

There's a surprising amount of seating in this restaurant, with plenty of booths, and tables. The service was also very quick - we had our food less than ten minutes after ordering. I went with the country omelette (sans onions), which is generously sized with three eggs, and was chock full of green onions, ham, tomato, mushroom, and cheese on top (fun/different way to do it). Choice of toast, I went with rye, which came out perfectly toasted with plenty of butter on it, and hash browns. Delicious! My husband ordered the special (choice of meat, choice of how your eggs are cooked, toast, and hash browns). Our server was awesome - checked on us multiple times, and was very friendly. We will absolutely come back when in the area again!
