What Bruce Frank doesn't like about The Old Country:
have no competition. It was not busy but order was 35 minutes. Food was hot but like under heatlamp hot and overcooked. Not impressed lately. We have had better experiences there in the past. View all feedback. What archie rutherford likes about The Old Country:

The steak at breakfast is the best around. We love having breakfast here because it is cozy, quick and economical. The waitresses are friendly and efficient.

A popular spot in New Hamburg offers a mixed bag of experiences. While some diners praise the generous portions and tasty breakfast, others complain of long waits and subpar service during lunch. The atmosphere is described as cozy and welcoming, with locals often frequenting the dated restaurant. Recent renovations have improved the decor, menu, and food quality, making it a great option for a satisfying meal. Prices are fair and the staff is friendly, despite occasional service delays. Overall, this New Hamburg gem is worth a visit for a meal that won't break the bank.

Had an excellent breakfast, although the eggs were a bit ordinary.

Delicious local restaurant filled with friendly staff and patrons. Sports playing on the tvs in the corners but never loud enough to interrupt conversation.
