    I was so happy to hear the Yankee Diner had reopened recently. They have added a take out window and added outside seating. Also, for social distancing they added clear vinyl curtains (possibly shower curtains) between the booths. We weren't sure whether to order breakfast or lunch as we had a choice because they serve breakfast until closing at 2. We went with lunch. My friend picked one of the specials of the day which was ziti, meatball and sausage. She said it was excellent and wasn't able to finish it. I picked the mushroom and Swiss burger which was delicious. I ordered cole slaw with mine and it was very good too. We were happy with our meal and the service. We will have to visit again on another day.

    Excellent fish! Husband's haddock was lightly breaded and delicate. My haddock melt (without bread as I'm gluten free) was delicate and delicious. The tartar sauce and cole slaw is the best we had on our road trip to Maine. Server was friendly and cook was accommodating. Stop here if you can. It's the real deal.

    "Chopped" scrambled eggs? You'd need a spoon to eat them This was a 2nd attempt. Gross wet ones first, gross chopped version next. GIVE UP!

    Cook/chef can't scramble eggs right. What more can I say? I sent the first batch of eggs back because they were too wet. The replacement dish of eggs was no better, other than having been cooked longer. However, the "new" eggs were now chopped into tiny bits that wouldn't work well with the fork. Gee, if you can't scramble an egg right, you're not a decent breakfast joint! Server girl didn't know how to quietly bash me to her coworkers -- she kept going into the kitchen frequently and I could hear her "dissing" me to the cooks as I sat to drink my coffee. Even after I confronted the server and told her I felt awkward because she kept engaging the cooking staff to talk about me/the issue, and I could hear her, she continued her unprofessional behavior. Way to earn a tip, Dumbo! NOT Just another local breakfast place with sub-par food. For the record, scrambled eggs are supposed to be beaten well (maybe use a whisk instead of a fork) before cooked thoroughly.....not stirred lightly. That's all I asked for. First the server misinterpreted my request to the cook who should already know how to serve scrambled eggs. Then there was a bit of a kerfuffle by the time I left because of that rude server. I've had crummy eggs in many breakfast joints, unfortunately. But hearing a server repeatedly bash me while I sit at my table to consume the remainder of my meal? That's a new one on me. Don't waste your money here like I did.

    Just a quick stop for a quick breakfast of French toast and coffee. Both were excellent, but what…read moreimpressed me most was the attitude of the staff. Extremely friendly and attentive. That alone would make me a regular customer if I lived closer. Quaint little place, a bit warm, which is a part of its charm. Lots of off street parking.

    "Polk Salad Annie Gators got your granny"…read more(Elvis Presley) We found Annie's on Main Street in Sturbridge, just look for their big sign in the parking lot. Speaking of parking, there are plenty of spots in the parking lot where the restaurant is located. Annie's is a family-owned breakfast and lunch spot, opening at 7am and closing at 12 or 1 every day. You'll find just about any breakfast or lunch comfort food here, so even the pickiest eater in your party will find plenty of options. Their menu has a few interesting choices, like three different "Egg White Mixers" that combines vegetables or baked ham with scrambled egg whites and toast. We also were impressed with the Family Style Meals for four or six. We stopped for breakfast on Saturday and were seated right away by Paige. She was friendly and attentive throughout our visit. My wife's breakfast order was a 4-egg Cheese Omelet ($9.50) served with Annie's Home Fries and choice of toast. I went for one of those Egg White Mixers ($8.25) and chose the Veggie with onions, peppers, and tomatoes, It was also served with Annie's Home Fries and choice of toast. I couldn't resist when I saw the magic words "Corned Beef Hash" on their menu, so I also asked for a side of their Fresh Homemade Corned Beef Hash ($7.25). My breakfast was fantastic, and that corned beef hash was loaded with lean shredded corned beef. Two Negatives 1) Have you ever been charged extra for hot sauce? Well, sadly Annie's charges $1 for those tiny plastic containers of hot sauce. 2) Coffee is a pretty important breakfast component, right? When I spend $4 for a coffee, I expect the coffee to be very good. Truth be told, Annie's coffee was terrible; it was incredibly weak and flavorless.

She was working like a well-oiled machine. I couldn't even keep track of my own order, I dunno how she handled five at a time! I asked the nice lady which sandwich she liked and could recommend, and she suggested the turkey with bacon and swiss melt, so I went with it. It didn't disappoint. Quintessential diner fare, done right. I have to admit though, looking around at other plates. Why the heck didn't I get breakfast? Wakey wakey, I love eggs and bacey. I think you will certainly not regret taking advantage of the all-day breakfast. You may not think it, but there *is* an artform to executing diner brekkie right, and it would appear that Kim delivers. I overheard her talking about the development plans just behind the diner. You guessed it. Ugly cardboard condos! I think the diner will survive the onslaught of development and gentrification, but just in case... you better visit soon, because you don't know what you got 'til it's gone.

The place was packed, the staff was friendly, and the walls were a nostalgic sticker bomb, giving the whole diner a time-capsule kind of charm. I had the strawberry-banana ricotta stuffed French toast--sweet, creamy, and dangerous. My partner went savory with a Philly steak & cheese omelette plus homemade corned beef hash that honestly deserves its own Yelp page. My only gripe? I like my hot chocolate super chocolatey, and this one leaned more on the watery side for my taste. Come hungry, leave in a food coma. I'll be back.

Busy joint, tight seating, and energetic servers who keep attentive. -- Patty Melt: So much to like about this, from the marble rye (though I think pumpernickel) to the full size patty (better than the double smashed you get elsewhere) to the onions to the gooey melted cheese to the extreme juiciness and pleasing flavor. I didn't detect any Russian dressing, but this sandwich wasn't lacking for moistness or flavor oomph. A near-elite rendition and one of the best I've had in a while. Excellent. -- Fries: Included with the patty melt and a plentiful supply. The bad news: they're the dreaded industrial "coated" kind. The good news: they were piping hot and cooked perfectly, crisp outside, fluffy inside. The great news: you can substitute home fries. My server offered a sample of the home fries. -- Home Fries: I found them to be right in my wheelhouse for doneness, crispness, seasoning, onions, and overall texture and flavor. Superb. Between the good looking plates that passed by and my enjoyment of my own food on my first visit, there's sure to be a second.
