The biscuits and gravy were just okay, and the omelet would have been better if it weren't made with American cheese slices. I did like the potatoes. Everything had a taste of grease to it, but for the price, I can't complain too much. I wasn't a big fan of their coffee (decaf). The service was nice and kept our cups filled, haha. The decoration inside is dated and nostalgic. For a small diner, it served its job :) Note: I enjoyed the pancakes, but they were a bit raw in the middle.

This quaint Diner offers up the general fare you would expect from a divey-diner experience, but elevated. From the exquisite breakfasts, to beef manhattan lunches. You may also, want to choose from a wide array of delectable homemade pies, ahhh... The owners and staff are beautiful people that pour their souls into the food, and are there daily. Get there at a decent time during their posted hours though... If not, you'll miss out on the food you want, because everything is made to order, and so fresh, they don't waste any "thyme" with leftovers. A small secret... if you have a sweet tooth... Tell Chris, the owner, that your "Food tasted as good as Tom Brady's loving eyes look" & you'll be rewarded with a free piece of Pie!!! Gosh, oh golly, I love this place!

We parked in front of the restaurant, and were seated immediately. The inside is small, but they also have a nice little patio area if the weather is right. We chose to sit inside this time. The bar is nice as well. They were busy but the food and drinks come out quickly, so that helps. I started with the signature drink according to the server. It was called the lucky bucket, and it's a spicy strawberry margarita. It definitely has a kick to it, with good flavor. I ordered the special, which was a chicken Parmesan sandwich, made with a homemade marinara sauce, mozzarella and Parmesan cheese, and banana peppers. It was delicious!!! My husband had the fried chicken club sandwich. They originally brought out the wrong sandwich for him, so the picture is of a different sandwich, but once corrected, he said it was good. He ate the other half of my sandwich and liked it better! We also shared the classic fries and a slice of the vanilla cheesecake with homemade berry compote for dessert. Great service. Delicious food. We will be back to try the burgers! They looked and smelled amazing too...
