First time to eat at this Nashville landmark. The breakfast was delicious! Real diced potatoe hash browns, scrambled eggs, country fried steak, and biscuits and gravy. So sad that I haven't been eating there more often. It is closing on October 31st. They lost their lease after 30+ years

As classic and authentic a diner experience as you could hope to find. Cash only, so plan ahead. There is an ATM on site. Open 10pm-1pm, perfect hours for late night munchies or a morning hangover. Service is quick and efficient, and the food is exactly as advertised. There are no frills here, but plenty of regulars. Prices are very fair and portions generous.

This will always be a special place for me, I was in labor with my first child little girl ..the old General Hospital was across the street and said I wasn't ready! I went across the street and was hungry for the chicken and dumplings!! Was in labor 72 hour's!! Her name is Misty!! Thank you for being here!! Great memory

Don't be in a hurry if you're planning to eat here, and don't expect great service. It was fairly busy so normally I'd understand, however we watched the server piddle and chit chat for nearly 10 minutes before taking our drink order, which another staff member ended up doing anyway. It took 40 minutes for two of our three meals to come out (from the time we walked in the door), both of which were cold. The other meal arrived a few minutes later, which was at least hot. We had to ask multiple times for only one refill and the server seemed to think that we were a nuisance. The food was pretty good, and priced well, hence the 2 stars.

Love this place so much and I'm beyond heartbroken that they are closing their doors soon. Nashville will never be the same when this staple of our community is gone. Thanks for the memories HC. Make sure you check this place out while you still can.

Great food! Great service! Fun fast little diner for a quick bite to eat! Lots of choices for everyone. Our food got to us fast! Everyone was so friendly

Walked in, got made fun of by staff for our group wearing masks and staff started whispering in their ears about our outfits, so we chose to walk out. Wouldn’t come back.

Worst service I have ever experienced. Our waitress was so rude to us. Never brought me the water I ordered. I got a coffee but she never checked back on us so I didn't get a refill. Threw our food down when she delivered it to us and was overall nasty to us but friendly to every other table there. We have no idea what we could've done or why we were being treated that way. The only nice part was the female cook who rang us up when we left. Other than that, wouldn't recommend and would never go back.

Based on other reviews and our experience, this place seems to be much better if you're a local. We went because it was open late-night. The woman who served us was incredibly rude and didn't put in any effort to extend hospitality. The other employee (the dude with one leg, possibly the owner?) came by instead and he was easygoing and fun to talk to.The place itself is grimy as all hell. Cash only. Food was OK—simple and cheap. But the woman ruined it and really shouldn't be in food service. I wouldn't recommend if you don't live in Nashville.

Dirty, flies everywhere, staff was not happy that we were there. I've never felt so unwelcomed. Food was merely okay, nothing to brag about and definitely not worth returning. Especially with the rudeness of the staff. Coffee was luke warm, so I poured it into my own insulated coffee mug to keep it warm and was told by the server that I wasn't allowed to drink out of my insulated mug. I simply poured it into my mug so that I could keep my coffee somewhat warm. I prefer hot coffee & this place was ridiculous. Definitely will not recommend to anyone and will not be back.
Cheap eats. Typical hole in the wall cafe.GOOD good food.

The food and prices were very good. The service left a lot to be desired. Couldn't get a refill for coffee because waitress was too busy visiting locals.

Great atmosphere, even better cuisine, friendly service! Fried bologna sandwich was incredible. My personal favorite breakfast place in Nashville!
