What an absolute find this place was! A little hole-in-the-wall restaurant that's easy to miss. Extremely friendly service with unbeatable prices! Menu fairly limited, but they offer a good amount of specials and you can find pretty much anything you would at most breakfast places. Got a biscuit breakfast sandwich that was on special. Came with home fries and ordered a side of bacon as well. Food came out quick and everything was delicious. Staff seemed to know every customer there or that came in for takeout. I need to become a regular here and cannot wait to come back!

amazing diner in the area! Food is great, ambiance is lovely, prices can’t be best, and the staff is all so kind. I got the Vermont biscuit sandwich with home fries and it was delicious. We’ll definitely be back

I mean where to start. The family has run this small diner since the mid 1980s and it feels like stepping into their home where you can get a wonderful home cooked breakfast. I highly recommend going here.

By far the best place for eggs Benny. Place might be small. And only take cash. But the food is the best

Old style diner staffed by an unlikely cast of characters. Very much a local joint. Lots of local customers that are like family.Plenty of nearby parking.Food is like from the 50s, eggs, bacon, toast and coffee. It takes a discerning eye to catch the advanced culinary skills at the grill.If on a diner crawl, this goes on the list.
