    the outside of the restaurant at night

    Nasty espresso pull and the milk had little texture;but they got the split shot and drink temp spot on. This shop has a great feel and the young employees were working hard on a long line of drink orders; they were obviously tense but still friendly. I'll return

    Java has great service and fantastic food selections and the coffee and other drinks are the best in TN.

    Cramped diner. Consistently cold food and weak coffee 3 x in a row now. I'm done…read more .............................................

    I don't know how someone could rate Mel's Diner a 4-star experience, but it's most certainly not…read more In this quaint little space, whiteboards display specials and kitschy signs occupy every remaining bit of turquoise wall space. The paint matches the tables and chairs, with two brown-colored, old-school restaurant booths located in a second room. A western movie plays on the television in the corner, and there are no carryout shelves, no WiFi, no frills. It's not what you come here for. But you will find lots of camo, long beards, and locals engaged in boisterous chatter with heavy southern accents. It's an authentic southern experience. The Saturday morning breakfast rush was just winding down at 8:45 when I walked in and took the only remaining seat. The other 45 spots were taken as the place was packed! It took 30 minutes to get my food, but I hoped it was worth the wait. The loaded hash browns contained a mixture of ham, peppers, onions, and one of my least favorite things - a melted square of despicable American cheese. The potatoes are closer to soggy than crisp which is a cardinal sin in the hash brown game. But the ham was really good. The sausage patties were obviously store bought and very unimpressive, and the biscuits were either picked up at the local grocer or simply underwhelming. The gravy was thick, but the wonderful texture was utterly flavorless. The entire meal was under $10 without the tip, so you get what you pay for. At least it's affordable.
