    Atmosphere - Great. The restaurant has a comfortable country feel. There is tons of seating that includes booths and tables. Service - Very good. Our server was very nice and attentive. Food - Very good. We were there for breakfast and the menu options are many and varied. I chose the Ham and Cheese omelette, which came with fried potatoes and toast. The omelette was served hot and tasted great. Overall Value - Very good!

    This is a pretty good diner. The prices are fair, the food is good, the tea tasted weird, but they have sodas that taste fine and coffee that is good. We came here as an option after having a bit of a rough start to the day. It was nice to walk into an actual restaurant. The inside is cute, with a homely and warm ambiance, with a general quiet feeling that makes it comfortable to sit and chat while eating. The staff was friendly and got everythingnout to us quick. We were very happy to come here and would suggest it to visitors to this town. TL;DR: A good town diner.

    Americana burger with bacon aioli

    It's easy to miss, if you don't know what you're looking for, but PLEASE don't overlook the Windham Diner!! The portions are enormous. The interior is dated. But the food is all homemade and DELICIOUS. We met my parents there for Mother's Day dinner, and everyone took some home. The dinner specials were roast pork loin stuffed with spinach, roasted red peppers, bacon and stuffing - my brother ordered this, got soup, potatoes and a vegetable with it - if his portion of meat wasn't 2 lbs I'll be dipped. His vegetable was butternut squash - a half of a roasted squash. His coffee cup barely had a sip or two out of it before they topped him up. I got the turkey dinner special - I think they gave me half the turkey!! Light and dark meat, stuffing, mashed potatoes, steamed broccoli, cranberry sauce, and soup or salad. I ate mostly the mashed potatoes because they were DELISH, and brought almost all the rest home. A ham and pear panini? Gorgeous, and incredible. The Americana burger with bacon aioli?! I'm pretty sure my husband would leave me for the aioli.... Also, the kindest, most attentive waitstaff - from the man who did continuous laps clearing plates and filling coffee, to the gentleman (maybe a cook?) you offered up a booth to lay our sleeping toddler in so we didn't have to hold album and eat, to the waitress who offered to make our toddler a to go order. Lastly, the price was beyond reasonable - and they gave the moms a rose and heart balloon, but had them hidden in the back so you got to see the genuine surprise from each woman! I can't wait to go back! If only to attempt dessert...there was just no way it was happening this trip!

    I always leave here satisfied and happy with the experience! The Windham Diner, previously Michael's Diner, has been a reliable "go to" for any meal whether it's breakfast, lunch, or dinner. Their prices are reasonable and the food always comes out fast and hot! The staff are very attentive and friendly, willing to cater to you.

    Large plate of Shrimp Athenian with pasta, stuffed shrimp with mash potatoes and butternut squash

    One of the better diners I've visited. The staff was pleasant even though they were busy. Prices were quite reasonable with good special combo deals that included a large soup. My wife actually loved the stuffed shrimp and the shrimp Athenian pasta was quite pleasing. The menu is large and the portions are quite bountiful. Not a bad place to grab some casual grub.

It wasn't too busy when we arrived in middle of the afternoon, and we were warmly greeted. You place your order at the counter and then seat yourself. Water and cups are out too. I went with the Pad Thai ($27 with chicken) and also got to try some of the fried chicken ($17), a special. Prices seemed a little high but the dishes were delicious, with portions being reasonable and the Pad Thai not being overwhelmingly sweet. The fried chicken was magically crunchy outside and moist inside, with an irresistible dipping sauce not too cilantro-y. The Windham Local has a parking lot off to the side, but there was ample street parking too. And a shop proprietor later told us that The Windham Local is her place to eat in town!

Coffees were delicious and strong and the breakfast burrito was truly the best breakfast burrito I think I've ever had. The space is so cute. I read on their website while planning the weekend that they are open for breakfast, lunch, dinner and have live music on the weekends. It looks like they do it all. We stopped in early and had our choice of tables. The space is big, clean and perfectly calm. Great spot for a slow breakfast. After ordering at the counter, they brought everything over to our table. I got the oatmeal bowl. Delicious and simple. However, I couldn't help but steal many many bites of the breakfast burrito. Seriously, get it! A great spot with good food, a friendly team and a cozy vibe.

I had the ribs once and they weren't great either. I really want to see how they cook steak so I will probalby get it next time.

The prices are very good and I the atmosphere is family oriented and very friendly IMO. Whenever I'm in Windham this is where I go. I like the bar a lot if you want to just hang out and enjoy the scene. The outdoor area is really nice too when its not winter. It is definetly the best value in Windham.

Whether you're coming off a long day at Hunter Mountain or just passing through Windham, this spot perfectly balances a rustic, family-friendly atmosphere with a menu that doesn't cut corners. The Butcher Steaks: This isn't just a "chicken joint." They take their beef seriously, offering fresh-cut, flame-grilled steaks like the 24oz Ribeye and NY Strip. They even age their own steaks in-house when available, resulting in a tender, seasoned-to-perfection cut that rivals high-end steakhouses but at much friendlier "mountain prices." The Signature Fried Chicken: This is the restaurant's namesake for a reason. The chicken is consistently hot, crispy, and juicy. Pro tip: Get the combo that comes with their special honey sauce and "cornbread cake." Dipping the savory, salty skin into that honey is a game-changer. BBQ Ribs: If you're looking for "fall-off-the-bone," you found it. Their ribs are slow-cooked and slathered in a rich, tangy sauce that requires a stack of napkins and zero regrets. Save room--or just admit you're having a second dinner--for the homemade desserts. Their dessert bar and soft-serve ice cream are staples, but the real magic happens in the summer (or around the outdoor firepits) with their S'mores kits. It's the perfect way to cap off a mountain day. With a massive backyard featuring a firepit, live music on the weekends, and a "come as you are" dress code, it's easily the best spot for big groups. The service is fast, the portions are massive, and the "old-school country" energy makes you feel like a local the moment you walk in.

There's stuff made by local artists along with big box toys and items. There are a few cats living in the store and restaurant - all are super friendly. The restaurant is nice but the service is extremely slow and could be a touch nicer. There are multiple signs talking about the whole world being understaffed. Just be prepared to spend a while. The waitress was fine but clearly very busy. We had mentioned wanting to get dessert at the beginning but when we were done eating, she had just brought us our check - we were too fully anyway. I had the garden salad sandwich on farm bread. The avocado wasn't the freshest and there was only one tiny piece of tomato - this will probably be a good sandwich in peak summer. The sandwiches came with chips and salsa. The store made mango salsa is delicious. Locally made root beer in a bottle was delicious and unique. The baked goods were quite pricey (almost $9 for a small square of raspberry bread). The bathrooms are on the otherwise by the kids toys.

The wait staff is friendly and we were not rushed out of our seats to turn over the table. The rest room lines are shorter upstairs too.
