    This restaurant is very much a "local diner" feel which is cute. They have those traditional dinners coffee cups and coffee, and standard breakfast and lunch fare. My English muffin breakfast sandwich was good as was my spouses omelette. There are Greek inspired items on the menu as well. The fries weren't our favorite, but they were okay. Overall, it was a fine experience, but I likely wouldn't return.

    Eggs Benedict with grits

    First impressions and Covid: Masks are required to be worn at all times (both guests and staff) unless seated at your table. Tables are closed off to allow for safe distancing. They have laminated menus that are sanitized after each use. They offer both inside and outside seating. We happened upon Creedmoor Cafe on Yelp after our original pick (Briggs Restaurant) had a 30-40 minute wait. We went across the street to Creedmoor Cafe and we were seated right away. Food: I ordered the Eggs Benedict with grits and my husband ordered the 2 eggs any style with sausage and grits and added a side of corned beef hash. Eggs Benedict: Standard eggs Benedict. The holandaise sauce is not overpowering, however the egg and Canadian bacon to English muffin ratio is a little lacking. Far too much English muffin for how small the Canadian bacon and poached eggs are. Eggs with Sausage: Eggs are your pretty standard scrambled eggs. My husband ordered them a medium scramble and they came out as requested. The sausage is really good and some of the best sausage links ordered in a restaurant. Grits: The grits are soooo good. Perfect balance between grit texture and creaminess. Grits can be so hit and miss but these are on point. Corned Beef Hash: The first bite was really salty but the more my husband ate them he really enjoyed them. Final thoughts: Would we return here the next time we are visiting? It might not be our first choice for a return visit but would come back. Maybe check them out for lunch or try other breakfast items.

    Stopped by this place one day while out and about. We decided to sit outside. Ordered a few things and when we received our order it was incorrect. The waitress accidentally brought the wrong plate, which was NBD. The Western Omelette was good, but needed some flavor. It was very plain tasting. The home fries were quite delicious. The kids had the pancakes..seemed the kids pancakes were larger than the regular order off the menu. Overall not bad, just nothing spectacular to come back for.

    I walked right in and was seated immediately. The place is quiet and clean. My breakfast came very quickly. Attentive service.

    2 egg omelet with jalapeño, cheddar and what must be a new kind of broccoli that looks and tastes like bacon.

We chose outdoor seating and even though it was warm, it wasn't that Miami heat, so we were perfectly happy enjoying the outside. It also got us seated a little quicker. We had some time to look at the menu while waiting and ended up ordering the chicken and waffles, meat lovers scramble bowl, the Bissell Breakfast, and the biscuits and sausage gravy with eggs and hash browns. Our food came out pretty quickly and maybe, just maybe, it was the long ride talking, but this foodie family likes to taste each other's dishes and we all agreed everything hit. My chicken and waffles came with a strawberry butter. Yep, that was hitting. The cheesy grits with the Bissell Breakfast, hitting. The gravy on the biscuits, also hitting. And that scramble bowl that was loaded with meaty goodness, you guessed it, hitting. Our waitress was super friendly and took great care of us the entire time, which made our meals hit even better. Safe to admit Metro was a 'hitting' first choice on our Raleigh visit.

The place was crowded but there was no wait. I got seated immediately at a table near a column in the middle of the restaurant and Christy came over and asked if I wanted anything to drink. She brought me iced water and gave me time to look at the menu. I wanted to try so many things and I was too optimistic about ordering 3 things and finishing them myself. Good thing I only ordered 2 things! An order of fried catfish with home fries and one egg. And a biscuit with sausage gravy. The fried catfish was salted and well fried. It tasted delicious for my first bite! The home fries were basically cut potatoes, but they weren't very fried or flavored. I wished I ordered the side of apple sauce instead. The biscuit and sausage was good, but a bit too much for one person after eating a separate order already. Definitely bring more people so you can try more things. Also, I wished I had asked for sausage gravy on the side so I can try the biscuit on its own first as well. Furthermore, I would have more time to eat the catfish so I wasn't worried about the biscuit getting soggy. Christy came to check up on me every now and then. The place was buzzing with people and decorations so I didn't feel so alone. When it was time to pay, Christy brought me the check for me to pay at the cash register. Both Christy and the cashier were so friendly! The restaurant does have a women's and a mens restroom if needed.

The bones feel nostalgic, but the overall vibe is current and lively. It's the kind of place that feels familiar but still cool. Service Service is where things really clicked. Our server knew the menu inside out and guided us through it with confidence. Every recommendation landed. It also felt like one of those menus where it would be hard to order poorly. The Food The menu leans comfort food with a modern edge, and it's done really well across the board. We started with a Caesar salad with dill pickle dressing, which sounds like it shouldn't work but absolutely does. Bright, fresh, and just different enough to be interesting without trying too hard. The beet salad was also excellent, clean flavors and well balanced. Then came the pimento cheese with fried crackers. This might have been the sleeper hit. The crackers are dangerously good. Simple idea, executed perfectly, and hard to stop eating. For mains, the fried chicken was solid but didn't stand out the same way the starters did. The short rib pot pie, on the other hand, was exactly what you want from a dish like that. Rich, flaky, and deeply comforting. Overall Poole's is the kind of place where everything feels considered, from the space to the service to the food. It's approachable, well executed, and very easy to enjoy.

We opted for a reservation at the bar, and we enjoyed excellent service from Brittany and Kylie. They were attentive and very detailed with the excellent service that we have found out is the norm in every one of Ashley Christensen's restaurants. Our starter of roasted beets had an incredible blend of buttermilk blue cheese with white balsamic thyme, pickled pumpkin, and Marcona almonds. So yummy. Then my husband and I shared the Ricotta Gnocchi that we agree is the BEST gnocchi we have ever had the privilege of eating. So light in spite of a duck bolognese being the sauce. Fried rosemary sparked my home chef mind for future meals! We also shared the Brussels sprout upon Brittany's recommendation. One of the most unique preparations on Brussels sprouts ever with oyster mushrooms and a sherry cream sauce. We typically pass on dessert, but the description of their Pear Tart Tatin coupled with Kylie's verbal description hooked us and we were thrilled to enjoy every bite of the hazelnut praline ice cream that is part of this beautiful dessert.

    A Classic Diner Experience in Downtown Raleigh…read more Anyone who follows me knows two things I love very much: breakfast and diners (along with other short-order restaurants). I definitely found a gem in Glenwood South that immediately reminded me of the classic diners I grew up with in New Jersey. For readers unfamiliar with Jersey diners: think a no-nonsense, sit-down restaurant serving breakfast all day, great coffee, generous portions, and a menu built around eggs, griddle items, comfort food, and attentive table service. Tucker Street Diner delivers that same spirit--just set in the fashionable Glenwood South neighborhood rather than along a highway. Tucker Street Diner is located within the Smoky Hollow mixed-use development in the Glenwood South area of downtown Raleigh. Smoky Hollow is a large, modern complex featuring retail, restaurants, Class-A office space, structured parking, and residential units. The diner occupies ground-level retail space in the office building at 421 North Harrington Street, right at the corner of the pedestrian promenade along Tucker Street. The restaurant is designed as a modern American diner with nostalgic retro touches--checkerboard floors and glossy booths--blended with contemporary comfort and urban flair. It clearly evokes classic diner aesthetics while catering to a diverse downtown crowd. The menu focuses on classic American diner fare: all-day breakfast, burgers, sandwiches, specialty comfort food, and blue-plate specials. Breakfast options include pancakes, eggs, bacon, burritos, and creative dishes such as breakfast burritos and open-face sandwiches with gravy. Desserts, milkshakes, and coffee/espresso drinks are also available. I visited early on a Friday morning during New Year's week. I was greeted warmly and quickly served a solid, classic diner cup of coffee (likely a medium roast). Even with limited office activity that morning, the diner still had a steady flow of customers. I ordered the chicken-fried steak with two sunny-side-up eggs, home fries, and rye toast. The steak was nicely breaded, and the white gravy--served on a separate plate--was rich and flavorful. The eggs were perfectly cooked. The home fries were cubed potatoes (different from the shredded style often found up north) and were very good. Large slices of buttered rye toast, topped with both grape and strawberry jelly, rounded out what was a very satisfying breakfast. Portions were generous for the price, and the overall value felt right for a downtown, full-service diner--especially given the quality of the food and the attentiveness of the service. The classic diner theme and attention to cleanliness extended even to the gender-neutral restrooms, one of which is accessible. The accessible restroom was occupied at the time, so I used the other; it was clean, pleasantly scented, and well stocked. In short, Tucker Street Diner feels like a Jersey diner dropped into a Southern downtown--comfort food, eggs, and gravy instead of biscuits--with a welcoming atmosphere and reliable execution. I left full, satisfied, and already planning a return visit.

    This is definitely a cute diner spot with classic menu options. I got the diner jewel and I loved…read morethe pancakes, but everything else was just average. I will say the service was great though. Half of my food didn't come out when everyone else's did and even though it took about 2 minutes to get it, they still took all of it off my bill.
