Mom's Diner is small and intimate and well loved. It's an unexpected oasis in Oakland City which…read moreis near my father's home town if Petersburg. We loved the friendliness of everyone in the restaurant when we arrived ... they recommended biscuits and gravy, someone else recommended the tenderloin sandwich. My SO ordered the tenderloin with a side of onion rings... they have every right to boast bragging rights on the tenderloin! I got the fried fish sandwich (battered)... also delicious. It is of the beaten path for us but was definitely impressed.

Amazing! You won't find a place like this very often. If you're anywhere near Mom's diner, you owe…read moreit to yourself to stop in! The waffle was perfectly done--tender and sweet. The eggs were done right and the prices were ridiculous. Where in the world would you get a Waffle for $2.50? Misty was new but delightful and friendly. And I even got to meet Mom. The boss lady. What a wonderful sense of humor and what really nice people they are. You owe it to yourself to stop in at Mom's. Friendly staff, great food, and real laughter... along with plenty of small town character. Their menu selection is huge. I'm stopping back every chance I get.

It seems like it's been untouched for decades. It may be confusing for some because on Apple Maps it comes up as Cakes and Coffee Cafe (as it does here on Yelp), but the menu says "Randy's Americana Cafe" - not sure if the name changed at some point. Regardless, it was a cool old building with this really long high top lunch counter out in the middle with traditional table seating all around. I came in on a Monday and there was a steady trickle of mostly seniors coming in. I ordered a BLT and it was great- and came out in less than 5 minutes. They had a nice selection of cakes and pies. But the real charm of this place is all the obscure Americana stuff on the walls AND the old vault in the back, which is essentially a guest book. Literally thousands of people have signed the walls in the vault. They even have a step ladder because the walls are so full that the ceiling and mechanicals are about the only available real estate. Super fun blast from the past place.

The decor was eclectic and reminiscent of a trip to a hip Grandma's kitchen. The plates are all mix matched older patterns and lend a fun vibe to the interior. The room is a big open space but with lots of cozy spots. They have a room for a separate party and the servers were on point despite it being a busy morning. The food was perfect comfort food with amazing fried chicken on a smothered biscuit. Yum! My friend's French toast was very cinnamony which she loved. We will keep this in mind for future trips and even signed up for their newsletters and updates. It is worth a trip!

The menu changes seasonally with new items, but still has classics you can expect all year round. They also have weekly specials that include non-menu items that are often themed for holidays/special occasions. This morning we got to enjoy some of this season's winter menu. I had the fuyu sando, my husband had the country cabin crunchwrap, and our son had the O-G pancakes with chocolate chips/strawberries/blueberries. I also had a cookie butter chai and my husband had coffee. Everything was phenomenal, like always. The staff is always pleasant and helpful. The restaurant itself is bright, open, and just cheerful. If you're in the area this is a must stop. If you are local, they do so much more than brunch. They have a bakery across the hall, they do catering, private dinners, special nights for dinner. Chef Claudia has brought an absolute gem to southern Indiana.

With tip, $57.75. The country fried steak was the thinnest I have ever gotten. The gravy that came with it to dip in was hyped up on the menu as being delicious. It tasted like the cheapest 50 cent store brand instant gravy packet. Almost zero flavor. I did appreciate the avocado and garlic aioli flavor in the wrap. The country fries ( cubes ) tasted stale , like they were fried, then kept warm. Neither of us ate but two bites each. Ketchup didn't help.

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...
