    Food was good and nice portions. Very expensive for a diner. Breakfast plates were around $21!

    This is a basic diner that is clearly a local fave. We found it on Yelp as we are visiting Ottawa…read morethis weekend. The food was done as requested (eggs were actually over easy). The staff are friendly, even tho they are kept busy on their feet! The place is busy and so it was loud but it was clean. Steps to get in tho if you have mobility device.

    Showed up here on a Saturday mid-morning after visiting Crappy Tire and the place was busy, but…read morecertainly not at capacity as there was at least four 4-seater tables open and a couple of two seaters right in front of the door. No line-ups. We weren't keen on sitting by the door due to the draft coming in. We were told we had to wait for a two-seater because they didn't want us to take up a four seat table. We're like wtf??? I can see this if you the hot new restaurant in town and huge demand, but quite literally there was four 4-seat tables sitting empty and no line-up. In any event, we stayed, sitting in some two-seater jammed in the corner. And then we ordered a breakfast. I'm a Ozempic user, so I don't eat much - I was going to take an egg, a piece of bacon, and a couple of potatoes from my wife's plate. Oh - can't do that. There's a $2 "sharing charge". Like, wtf? I'm done with this place and their stupid policies. The food is typical diner fair that you can get any diner, nothing special here.

    Don't let the area around the diner dissuade guy from trying it. Walked in on a weekday morning,…read moredecent crowd. Friendly wait staff seated me and brought a coffee. I ordered an omelette and home fries. I judge a diner breakfast by the quality of the homefries and these were A+. Extra crispy, real potatoes that were nicely seasoned. Everything was hot, coffee was very good. Friendly attentive staff. Can't wait to go again.

    Looking for breakfast spots in the area this looked to be our best bet. Plenty of parking available…read moreand it is located in what appears to be an old mall that while outdated looking did appear to be full of many other businesses. This is your classic diner you would imagine when you think of spots that brings regulars in everyday. Also I must add they were decorated for Christmas to give that little extra holiday feeling, great touch. You are greeted right away by some of the friendliest staff and service is top notch. The person in our party was getting their coffee topped off long before it had a chance of being empty. Not really something you see with service quality much these days. In typical diner fashion they offer their breakfast all day during their open hours as well as have rotating daily specials. While some of the specials sounded really good, and even just their typical menu offerings sounded tasty both my wife and I ended up choosing an omelette. She ended up choosing the bacon and cheese while I got one of their loaded ones that came with sausage, onions, homefries, and cheese. Serving sizes were great and it is definitely a spot you will be leaving feeling full. While both were tasty, we have had better breakfast and omelettes elsewhere but would gladly return here again! The cheese used appeared to be American cheese slices and my wife's hash brown had an off taste from the oil used to fry it. Just a few knocks against the food to make it a 4 star review rather than 5 but minimal overall. Positively though they filled her omelette with a ton of bacon! If you are in Potsdam or the nearby area looking for a breakfast (or lunch) spot I do think this is worth your time! Some of the friendliest staff in a place with old school vibes for a good hearty meal!
