Delicious, local, and friendly. I had the bbq sandwich with cucumber salad which was delicious.
Love this place!!!! Home grown food! Great people
The table was sticky, and I had to ask for it to be cleaned. My friend ordered the BBQ, which was good. I would like to see a wider variety of vegetables on the menu.
We were on a weekend trip. First time up this way and our AirBnB host suggested we visit. We were not disappointed! We had the crab cake sandwich, one with potato salad and one with cucumber salad. DELICIOUS!! Try to go early, it filled up fast!
My husband and I live in Richmond but our family owns a home in the area that we visit several times a year. This diner is a must every time we're there. The food is fresh and delicious with very fair pricing. The staff is so friendly and takes the time to acknowledge our previous visits. They're also very quick with taking our order and delivering our food. Our most recent visit only took about 30 minutes. If you're ever in Mathews or Gloucester, definitely take the time to eat here.
