Neat little diner with great breakfast food. Son got the 1-2-3 (bacon, eggs and good sized pancake) and I got the Bidwell Egg (basically a bacon, egg and cheese bagel). Friendly service. Imagine gets a crowd later so glad we came early. Definitely worth a sit.

One of my favorite breakfast spots in Chico. My go to order is Chicken Fried Steak with home fries. Crispy outside and juicy thick steak. Enjoy the Biscuits and gravy or their apple cinnamon muffins ( new discovery) , Excellent service every time and never have issues with food order. There is fair sized seating inside as well as the patio. Usually a wait but moves rather quickly. Interior kinda gives me that 50's diner theme with a collection of coffee mugs hanging over the counter space flare.

Went for brunch with my friend. We were seated outside and the weather was perfect. The shade and fans outside kept us cool while it was nice and sunny. Ordered gluten free pancakes ? and they were delicious. ? Will stop by again when I'm in the area.

I'm cheating because my niece works here, but it really is a good experience. Family owned and operated, so they really do try hard to make their patrons happy. The huevos rancheros is ridiculous.

If you are in Chico and looking for a diner with great food and friendly service you've found the right spot. I tend to find what I like and stay with it but my husband is adventurous and has never been disappointed. Just a suggestion, don't pass up on their wonderful BACON!!

Great breakfast establishment. The waitresses are very friendly, they provide excellent service and the cooks keep me coming back by saving up yummy food. Small restaurant that is usually busy.
