What Rafael Araújo doesn't like about Knowles Restaurant:
First visit here in quite a while (there are many restaurants to choose from in our little town) and, unfortunately, we won't be rushing back any time soon. It's a long-time establishment but it is in need of some work to brighten up the dark surroundings. It looks tired and old (not in a good way). The highchair we used wasn't the cleanest thing I've ever seen and the tray mechanism is broken. No one seemed to care... View all feedback. What darryl hurs likes about Knowles Restaurant:
Was a nice stop for a simple diner meal came for the atmosphere and wanting that diner experience and Knowles was a great stop on a rainy day. Had a classic BLT and fries. The gravy wasn’t great but the blueberry milkshake was a nice surprise.The prices were surprisingly affordable like they haven’t changed the prices in years. View all feedback.

Small restaurant in a small town . Pricing is a little higher than you would expect and quality is average at best .

This restaurant is a classic diner. No need to question the authenticity of their food or decor. You'll be missing out if you don't give it a try.
