Cafe was clean and food was pretty decent. A simple menu, which I prefer as usually fewer items are easier to keep doing well. I was disappointed the chicken fried steak and the pork tenders are purchased pre-made and frozen, and not made in house as that's why I went to diner to try. I opted for a burger after waitress explained. Personally I believe a good diner with small menu could really be phenomenal with scratch made comfort food, but that is getting harder to find now. I probably would go back, but $15 for a burger, tots, and water with tip most likely would be for breakfast.

Small town family diner where farmers gather early in the morning and families dine at night. The food is always good along with the service. Must try the whole made hearty wheat bread.

A nice place with basic food. We were the only non- locals in the place. We were lucky to be there on Wednesday which is baking day. We had some terrific homemade pie, mine gooseberry, my husband's strawberry rhubarb. Delicious

A very good diner. The food is wonderful and the staff are friendly and take care of the customers. It has a typical diner atmosphere so don't expect anything fancy. If you just want good food at reasonable prices for the amount you get, you won't go wrong here.

Took a little day trip to Wamego on our motorcycle. Had lunch here before going to the Wizard of Oz museum which is conveniently right across the street. Lunch was delicious, service was great and we also had a peanut butter roll for dessert. I will dream of that peanut butter roll until we return! This is a cute downtown diner style place- nothing fancy, just delicious budget friendly food with good service.
Great little restaurant!
