Description

This roadside, old‑time diner blends cozy charm — fireplace, bar seating and a bustling local crowd — with hearty steaks, burgers and made‑to‑order breakfasts. Ample, truck‑friendly parking and a clean, casual atmosphere make it appealing to locals and travelers. However, experiences vary: service can be slow or inexperienced, menu/ breakfast hours lack clarity, and food consistency has occasional lapses. A solid choice for casual diners who prioritize atmosphere and parking, but expect uneven service and quality at times.

Food and service were horrible. Teenage waiter didn't know the menu and kept going back and forth to ask questions. I ordered Steak and eggs and the steak was so thin it was probably skirt steak instead of the ribeye, which was advertised on the menu. The steak was overcooked as were the hashbrowns. Go elsewhere, I should have read the reviews 1st. Meal type: Brunch

Food was terrible, the chicken was Dino nuggets that sat in the cold for days and then got moldy. Would never recommend, Dairy Queen is way better. That place will probably make us have food poisoning tonight. The service was not that good either the waitresses were not coming by much at all. It was awful don't go there. The Ambiance was cool they had a buffet and that's were I got the awful chicken. And they had a pretty cool fireplace.
