Had the Reuben Burger, it was AMAZING. I asked for just a Reuben and Fries but the owner talked me into the Burger (It was on special, so saved money AND got a burger win win!). I was not disappointed. So delish! It was an awesome burger WITH smoked meat and all of the Reuben fixings! SO. GOOD. Fresh cut fries were great too. Great prices! Will go back for sure!

Got the Full Plate breakfast and it was a ton of delicious food for a very reasonable price. Service was timely. Definitely a great place to come for a cozy Saturday morning breakfast.

I've been here a couple of times, hoping that it would be a legitimate greasy spoon. It's been disappointing. I should have known better when my pancakes arrived with No Name table syrup (i.e sugar and water), not maple syrup.Food was less than mediocre. It didn't taste any better than what I could make at home (which is important to me - if I am going out for a meal it's because I want something better than what I'd get if I attempted to make it myself.)Decor is non-existent. I'm not one much for decor but, honestly, the 'dining room' looks like when a church sets up temporary tables and chairs for a potluck dinner. It doesn't 'feel' like a restaurant at all.That being said, there isn't much else for 'cheap breakfast' that is decent in Peterborough unless you go chain (ex. Cora's). My advice is spend more money and go to "2 Dishess Cookshop" Yeah, you're paying for the Farm-to-Table, but anything that comes out of that kitchen is good.

This restaurant provides a dedicated fryer for fried dishes and offers gluten-free batter for their fish, so customers can enjoy gluten-free fish and chips. They also make fresh soups that are gluten-free, though not all of them, so it's best to ask when placing an order. You can find their daily specials posted on their Facebook page as well.

This restaurant is a hidden gem! The owner, chef, and server truly have a passion for food. They are incredibly creative with their specials - I tried the Southern Sandwich, which had chicken carving and pulled pork, and the smoked chicken, savoy cabbage, and potato soup of the day was delicious. The traditional breakfast options were also well executed, especially the farmer's sausages which were big and flavorful. The prices are very reasonable, making this place a great value.
