My mother & I stopped for breakfast one morning & we didn't leave disappointed. The place is small yet simple & I actually like that about it. They don't over complicate what they're offering. The cooks were super friendly as well as our waitress. The coffee was perfect & my mother said her breakfast sandwich was great. She said it didn't leave an after taste of grease which most breakfast sandwiches cause her at other restaurants. This is something big with her - so you guys should be proud of this! We agreed if we want breakfast again & we're in your area, we're headed to your place. Thanks!

I've been coming to route 10 for the past 6 years, always ordering a minimum of 3 - 5 lunch orders between the QU colleagues and today was extremely disappointing to see the waitresses with the utmost disrespect and unpleasant attitude, she became irate after placing the order and at the time of pick up she was told the orders will be pay separately, two bills and she replay with, "Now i have to do math" process the transaction and slammed the receipts and pen. Disappointing because the gentleman cooking are streamly nice. But I guess this was my last visit.

What a nice little breakfast & lunch spot! I really enjoyed all of the items I've had here from egg and cheese sandwiches to philly steak and cheese and the omelets. I have yet to have a bad meal here, and the service is great as well.

The food is always served hot and is very consistent. The owners are very friendly and very hard working. This is our go to place for breakfast and lunch.

Look this place is everything you want in a diner. Plenty of parking space, enough tables to not feel like sardines, quality food and prices, and attentive service. The only tribe I have is it's hard to see a menu online so you can order ahead if you are in a hurry, meaning this is an amazing sit down diner but take out could be better by having a menu to see the options.

This diner is small in size but long on menu options and friendly service. You can tell it's a popular breakfast and lunch spot from all the regular customers they have. I'll describe the good as 'above average diner food'. One thing to note: if you need a fast meal, this isn't the place. There was one woman waiting all the tables and doing all of the checks, and I only saw two people cooking in the kitchen.

I happen to enjoy good diner food for breakfast, and this hit the spot. The chef was super friendly, and the food was exactly what I was looking for. The ham and Swiss omlette was delicious.

Our family had a great experience at this restaurant. We went on a walk on the Farmington Canal Trail and decided to stop here for lunch. My sons ordered burgers and my husband and I ordered breakfast fare. Everyone really enjoyed the meal. Fast and friendly service. Just a great little place to grab a meal. Reminds me of small town diners I used to go to as a kid. So happy we stopped in. We'll be back!

Such a nice and friendly little spot to have lunch or breakfast. The food is really quite good and the atmosphere is old school family diner vibe. I love eating here with my kids. Thanks for being there!Kid-friendliness: A diner with a really nice wait staff and coloring books for kids.

One of those restaurants that’s a sleeper. I had the veggie omelet with cheese. On point. Veggies were fresh and the customer services was on point. Me and my bros had a good time. I like this. ?

Good food, great service, welcoming atmosphere! The price is great for the quantity and quality of food. It has the fun buzz of a classic diner, and is well kept in regards to cleaning and upkeep. It's right along the Farmington Trail for those who enjoy walking out biking. We'll definitely be back!Kid-friendliness: Waitress jumped in quickly to get boosters and chairs for small kiddos at another table, and was mindful of what was within kids reach.
