    The Dewey Mess and Bowl Dog
    Chris C.

    I have drove through West Milton for 40+ years and worked occasionally in the town. I NEVER SEEN THIS HIDDEN GEM OF A RESTAURANT. I got on yelp looking for a breakfast joint in Englewood. Seen the reviews and decided to drive the extra mile. Was not disappointed. I had the Mess and it was huge. Hashbrowns, eggs. Onions, peppers and cheese. Hash brown were crispy. My wife had the Bulldog. It was all ahe could eat. If you are looking quality food, service and economical. This is the place. You will need directions, it is not exactly on the main drag.

    A great place to eat in West Milton! Eggs, Corned Beef Hash, Potatoes, Sausage Gravy, and Coffee.

    A great place to eat in West Milton! Eggs, Corned Beef Hash, Potatoes, Sausage Gravy, and Coffee. Traditional home cooked fare. Never had a bad meal. Always Great! My favorite Breakfast place. Large selection of breakfast items. Lunch & dinner menu items, are also Great!

    A nice traditional diner setting

    A great and pleasant surprise out of Dayton. Enjoyed the atmosphere and the staff; Stephanie (eponymous designer of Steph sandwich) was wonderful and her son was also friendly and got the cooking down. The food was tasty and just what I needed this morning. There are lots of great choices on the menu to include some specials so I'm sure I'll be back. It was also a nice touch when they broke out in a Happy Birthday song for an apparent regular. Four stars only because I don't want everyone to start running there and leaving no room for me. Enjoy...

    Bulldog diner has a great breakfast made on a flat top griddle. It's your classic small town diner atmosphere.

Clientele was primarily older (retired) but still saw younger couples as well. Our waitress was nothing fancy but she got the job done and checked in on us a couple of times. I love finding old "hole in the wall" places and this is one we will hit again when we drive by. Not much in the gluten free realm, so keep that in mind. We will be back. Serve a small menu of breakfast all day...a true dinner. Was going to get a slice of pie for dessert until I asked if it was homemade...our waitress said they weren't so I passed.

The tip from the previous diners was on the table & when the waitress came over I jokingly said 'I almost took your tip!' It was a joke & she 'not funny' as she walked by. It was a joke & when she came back to take our order she said 'we work hard for our money.' I said 'I work hard for my money too.' She then said 'I am only here to take your order.' My husband said 'it was just a joke.' Then the waitress said ' I will get someone else to wait on you.' At that, we left. Not sure what was going on with this waitress, but we were not treated right at all!!!! Too bad....maybe she was just having a bad day but we won't be back. We were not there long enough, but what we experienced was not good.

We got lucky seeking a spot for an early lunch on a Saturday morning and Yelp! Did it again - great reviews and so close to where we were in Englewood, Ohio. A really nice variety of entrees, sandwiches, and salads. We chose a patty melt and a turkey Reuben - with onion rings and French fries as sides. I already have a short list of what to try next - but will be remembering those perfect onion rings to eventually repeat. I have the feeling everything here is very well prepared and delicious. (Serious FOMO over not choosing the soup of the day. Next time, for sure) The server was really friendly and happy to learn it was our first visit. The restaurant is clean and has local artists' work on display and available for sale. Next door they also have a wine shop and gallery - also on our list to check out soon. My only tip is to be ready for lunch or dinner - no breakfast is served here.

    I've been visiting Tipp City for the past ten years to see my in‑laws, and every trip we make our…read moreusual stops--the Hotel Gallery across the street, Harrison's, the familiar favorites. And for all those years, my wife kept saying, "We really should try Sam & Ethel's." Somehow, this was the first time we finally made it happen--and I'm glad we did. We came in for breakfast the day before heading back home. We arrived around 9 a.m., and here's a tip for first‑timers: call ahead to get on the waitlist. You don't need to be present, and it can save you a little time. We thought we were next, but another couple who had called ahead slipped in before us. It felt a bit unfair in the moment, but honestly, good for them--they used the system the way it's meant to be used. Once seated, everything that followed was exactly what a classic hometown breakfast spot should deliver. The menu is full of comforting options--silver dollar or plate‑size pancakes, buckwheat or regular, with or without pecans, all served with hot syrup. Everything tasted fresh and thoughtfully made. I ordered the BELT (Bacon, Egg, Lettuce, Tomato) sandwich, which was excellent. They asked if I wanted cheese and offered several options; I chose cheddar, though it didn't end up on the sandwich. Honestly, it was still great without it. I also tried a silver dollar buckwheat pancake with pecans, and it was fantastic--nutty, warm, and just the right amount of indulgent. The coffee was a little weak for my taste, but that was the only small miss. I also sampled some of my wife's breakfast burrito and my mother‑in‑law's toast and hash browns. The hash browns were especially memorable--you could really taste the potatoes, thicker and less fried than what you'd find at a Waffle House. The buttered toast was excellent too, simple but done perfectly. And I have to mention our host, who delivered one of the funniest, most unexpected lines of the morning. She walked up and said, "Can I hit anyone up..." then paused just long enough for me to wonder what was coming next, before finishing with, "...with coffee." I was briefly alarmed, then immediately reassured--and I couldn't help but laugh. It was such a genuine, human moment that added to the charm of the place. Everyone at our table enjoyed their breakfast, and the wait--especially for a Saturday morning--was surprisingly reasonable. My father‑in‑law picked up the check, which was a thoughtful way to end a really pleasant meal. After a decade of visiting Tipp City, I'm glad we finally made it to Sam & Ethel's. It's easy to see why it's a local favorite, and it's definitely earned a spot on our regular rotation from now on.

Took a while to get a table, get the table cleaned off and get a menu due to being under staffed. Once the waitress came to our table everything was wonderful. Very kind, helpful, knowledgeable server. Our food came out quickly and perfectly. We both ordered the skillet. It was incredible. One of the best breakfast dishes I've had in a long time. Well prepared, delicious ingredients to make an incredibly delightful dish. The breakfast skillet was so good. The hashbrowns were perfectly cooked. The sausage gravy was flavorful and delicious. The bacon was crisp and was the perfect flavor addition. My eggs were cooked perfectly (I asked for basted-they were perfect!) Everything was incredible. The biscuits were so good. A little underdone but perhaps the was on purpose? They were really good. My son added pancakes to his order. They looked a little overly done, but tasted good. Portion size was huge. Ambiance was very mom and pop shop---very close quarters. Only one small restroom. Great restaurant with excellent food!!! Just know what you're getting into. Probably not very handicapped accessible due to stairs and small restroom and tight quarters, but delicious food with kind waitstaff. Go for the food, not the ambience.
