My comfortable cold home fry was not made at the moment and some people with the speaker playing Mexican music with loud volume that was annoying, talking about not even doing it, they left it, check your video from 2 15pm, it arrived

This charming little diner in Poughkeepsie is fantastic! The food was expertly prepared, giving me a genuine diner experience. The pancakes, eggs, and sauces were all excellent. Plus, the prices were very reasonable. The only thing I would have preferred is real maple syrup instead of the standard pancake syrup. I highly recommend it!

Quirky, vintage diner atmosphere that gives you the feeling of a homemade breakfast. I ordered a breakfast burrito with home fries and an iced coffee. It was exactly what this college student needed while being away from home.

I ordered a plain bagel with eggs and bacon, and I found it to be quite pricey for such a simple sandwich, especially since it only had one egg. I think I ended up paying $8.68 for it. However, the staff was very nice, so I won’t say anything negative about my experience.

Owner-run diner offering no frills experience. Solid omelettes at value pricing! Vegetarian options: There are a few veggie options, but I don't know how well the non-veg cooking surfaces are separated.
