Eventually the secret will get out about this place and none of us "in the know" will be able to…read morefind a table. This was my first visit and I'm ready to become their next regular. The best way I can describe this restaurant is that it gives you a feeling of community. It was clear to me I was dining with a bunch of regulars since one of the people at the table next to me walked up and grabbed a can of pop from the refrigerator behind the counter, cracked it open and told Diane to add it to her ticket. Another guy at a different table got up and served himself coffee. I noticed someone else walking out from behind the bar when we walked in. I'm not sure what she was doing, but apparently it's understood when you're a regular that you're also family. I had a soup and my friend who was with me had a BLT. We were both extremely happy with our food and service. We grabbed a table near the door when we first walked in because I like to sit on the perimeter my first time visiting a place. I like to take in everything, and this place does not disappoint. Take a look at my photos to see how little I had to pay for good food and quality service. Truth be told, I was out looking at houses before taking a break at Cousin's. If I didn't want to move to Lockport before, I sure as heck want to now! Heck, I may even stop in and ask Diane for a job. The dish washer did not show up for work the day we were there, so she was pulling double duty. I'm not sure if she has someone else cooking or not, so maybe triple duty! Once word gets out about how great and affordable this place is, she'll be needing the help. Or like me, all the new people will feel instantly like family and just pitch in where needed.

The waitress was over shortly after I came in to take my drink order. I ordered eggs OM, toast and sausage. My eggs were cooked OE; the whole yolk oozed out as soon as I touched them. I still ate them because I was hungry and didn't want to wait for new ones and they weren't horrible, just not how I ordered or prefer them to be cooked. The prices are quite decent & lower than other comparable establishments. The server was not the fastest, but she was friendly.

I live in the Lockport area and had been looking for a solid specialty coffee shop that wasn't a…read moredrive to Buffalo. Found Gypsy Kitchen on Transit Road, I mean to make a habit of going there often from here on out. The coffee is legit. They clearly know what they're doing with espresso. Also grabbed a bite to eat -- food is fresh, not an afterthought. The space is comfortable without being pretentious. Good seating, good light, not loud. I've worked remotely from here, met up with people, and just sat solo -- all work. Free wifi, easy parking, the whole thing. Open Tuesday through Saturday which works fine for me. Staff is friendly every single time, remembers regulars, doesn't rush you out. If you're in Lockport, Niagara Falls, or anywhere in WNY and searching for a local coffee shop that's actually worth it -- this is the answer. Not a chain, not a compromise. Just really good coffee in a spot that feels like it belongs to the neighborhood. One of the better finds in Western New York honestly.

The decor is super unique, they have different areas with different decorations. I wish I would have gotten more pictures. They have a bakery case, multiple options. They have loose leaf tea as well as espresso drinks. I really liked the coffee options. We split a sandwich and got the bean side. Very good. Clean individual bathrooms. Plenty of parking and seating. Kind service.

The breakfast sandwich was just as bomb as the first time. I do wish the waffle was a little less expensive. YES it is one of the best waffles I've ever had. But I'm surprised a burger (with two patties) and fries is only $2 more than 1 waffle. I also wasn't able to get real maple syrup with it this time.

This weekend were were in town to check out the farmers market and decided to hit up Sugar Shack for old times sake. You cannot beat the prices. For a #2 eggs, bacon, hash-browns, and pancakes it was $6.75 ?!?! And it was delicious to boot. My fav is the hash-browns opposed to home fries which you don't see a lot of at breakfast places anymore. It's a smaller diner but you're usually in and out quick so if there's a wait it shouldn't be too long.

I had the build you own Mac and cheese that was good but it's so big for one person and had an overwhelming amount of cheese. The onion rings are so very good though. They had a lot of vegetarians option. The ambiance was great with a medium amount of people. It is not wheelchair accessible though because of the stairs in the entrance. The service was average they were a little slow but pleasant. I would recommend.

Their weekly specials offer incredible deals - follow their Instagram. Although their burgers are top-notch, don't sleep on their fingers and wings. Crispy and delicious! Bonus, they are right near Lake Effect Creamery, so you can knock two great food joints in one evening, if your stomach allows.

We hadn't tried this location of Big Ditch yet, so we chose Big Ditch for the evening. Having been to Big Ditch in Buffalo many, many.... many times before, the quality and service were no surprise. Food is good, service is good, beers (although I can't drink them anymore) I'm sure are good. One of the more pleasing parts of the evening is the location this Big Ditch was built into. Historic building in the middle of town; a lot for someone interested in history, architecture and art. The dinning and bar area is spacious. There is a separate downstairs area with a full bar and game room. Like the Buffalo Big Ditch, it is diverse and offers options for someone looking to host an event or party. Solid.
