    You'd be hard pressed to not think that the Flat Tire Diner has been around for 50 years with the vibe it was putting out. It had energy of a long standing family establishment but has been around for 6ish years! They've done something right with hiring amazing welcoming staff to filling the menu with amazing diner esq grub! Hands down the crunch French toast is a must order that crispy hard exterior of corn flakes and the soft interior is the perfect balance and this will be the only French toast I'll ever order!! The fresh made bread and pastry onsite is also a welcoming addition, if I was local this is where I'd get my sliced loafs weekly!

    OMG! This was my 2nd time at the Flat Tire. The 1st time was great & this time was even better. Momma had a bacon, ham, egg, & cheese wrap with hash browns and I had the everything skillet with cinnamon toast. Delicious all the way around! The only thing better was the service! Kendall welcomed us & even spent time conversing with us. I must say this is the best experience we have had anywhere in ages! We will definitely be back!

    Sausage Bagelwhich

    Here's a fun, comical review you can drop straight into Yelp or Facebook Flat Tire Diner First time at Flat Tire Diner, and let me tell you--we rolled in hungry and rolled out happy (with all tires intact). We went classic breakfast mode and were not disappointed. The two-egg breakfast with fried eggs, bacon, hash browns, and white toast was simple, comforting, and packed with flavor. Add in a sausage bagelwich that absolutely understood the assignment, and we were officially on board. No frills, just good, honest diner food that tastes like it was made with purpose. But the real MVP moment? Sitting up front by the door... in winter... where the door opens and closes approximately every 7 seconds. Just when I thought I might need to order hot coffee intravenously, the host kindly shared her little personal heater with me to keep the chill off. That level of hospitality deserves its own Michelin star--or at least an extra strip of bacon. Warm food, warm hearts, and one very heroic space heater. We'll definitely be back--next time possibly bringing a scarf, just in case.

    Pastrami sandwich with onion rings

    The bartender at our hotel recommended this place. Well done, sir! Staff were quite friendly and answered our questions. They smoke their own pastrami. The fries are real potatoes. The onion rings are fantastic. The portions are just right. Absolutely recommend.

It was absolutely fantastic, with the strawberry's and bananas! Omg!! So good!! Anyway, this place is great , ambience was good, packed but now loud! Service was excellent! Our server was attentive, thank you, Mr Willy,you did great! We will be back and definitely will recommend!!

    Pork chops with apple and eggs
    Jessamyn B.

    Can you say pork chops and eggs, but with a twist, and at a diner in a strip mall? I was not expecting to get the brunch/launch experience that I did, but I am so glad we tried this place out. From the outside, you would never think that you're going to get such a great experience inside. They've got a full service bakery as well. We will definitely come back and bring the little ones for treats next time. Great service, great ambience!

    Chicken fried steak. Eggs were cooked perfectly!

    Great food. Biscuits and gravy were delicious. Eggs were cooked perfectly, over medium. Fast service.

    Classic breakfast food executed perfectly. The chicken fried steak is the best in the area. It is fresh and not frozen. Baked items are fresh and delicious.

    Crabcake Benedict with pastrami hash

    Love this old school diner! Food was great, very comforting. Even there was a bit of a wait on Sunday, we did it wait that long to get our food.

    Sunday morning, we popped in for a last minute breakfast and were readily seated for a table of 2. The service was prompt and super sweet. They had a very large menu which offered a variety of dietary accommodations. I ordered pancakes and a crab cake which both were great/large/tasty portions. Our coffee cup was never less than half full! Looking around the diner, they have very endearing decor, all staff were smiling and working hard. There didn't appear to be any grumpy or underserved tables (even in the midst of a Sunday morning rush). Local great spot - highly recommend for an easy, delicious, and financially sound meal. We look forward to coming back.

    Veggie omelette with hash browns

    The 2-egg veggie omelette was excellent! Hash browns were very tasty, as well! My friend had Eggs Benedict and enjoyed it! Our server was very attentive and kept our coffee cups topped off! It has a true diner vibe!

    One of the best finds for breakfast I have ever eaten at. This is just a "simple" diner - with a very large desert case, tables stacked on top of each other, busy every single time we have been there - but people don't care because of how amazing this place is. There isn't much room to wait inside but there are a couple of chairs there. Me and my friend didn't have to wait for more than ten minutes. Classic diner food but everything is fresh. Service is great. Coffee keeps coming. The pancakes are absolutely delicious, definitely get some! It's not a frilly or hipster breakfast place - the plates are cheap and the food top tier. Check it out!

    Crunch french toast
    Amanda B.

    Flat Tire has been on my "want to try" list for a while but I don't make it to the area often and rarely around breakfast/brunch time. While my dad was visiting we decided to make the trip. We were quickly seated upon arriving. The menu options all sounded so good, it was hard to make a choice! I settled on the chili cheese omelet and upgraded by bread to a cinnamon roll. My dad went with the crunch French toast. The cinnamon roll arrived first (which my waitress offered to have arrive first). The frosting was great and the flavor was delicious. It was a little more dry than I prefer, but it was still great! The chili cheese omelette featured a very fluffy omelette, melted cheese inside, and topped with more cheese outside. The chili was fantastic! It has shredded beef, beans but not too many, and a wonderful deep flavor that was well seasoned and a hint of spice. The hashbrowns were perfectly cooked as well, but I do wish they have a little salt and pepper on them when prepping them. The crunchy French toast really lived up to its name! The homemade bread was soft, the crunch coating outside fully covered the bread and added a delicious crunchy element, and the fruit and syrup were great additions! The space itself is well laid out, comfortable, and has a solid diner feel. The staff was all really nice and attentive! I cannot wait to visit again!

We weighed our options and ended up visiting Nadeen's Hermitage Haven based off of the positive reviews as well as wanting to visit somewhere local. Nadeen's is charming inside and out. The parking lot is small but there were plenty of spots open on a mid-week morning. We were greeted warmly and sat at a booth. Nadeen's feels familiar and comfortable. Our waiter was fantastic the entire time, he was gracious and hardworking. My husband ordered the Southwest Scramble and I had the Farmer's Skillet. Both were delicious but we both agreed that mine was the better of the two. The biscuit was baked perfectly and was so fluffy. The gravy and potatoes were delicious, too. Our coffee cups were never empty, either. Not to mention, the coffee here is really good! We will definitely be back!

I will say the drinks were strong. I accidentally ordered a margarita instead of a Bloody Mary so my wife drank that. I tried it and it was strong. I ended up getting the single bloody instead of double and glad that was the case. The food was good. I had the Diner Breakfast with cheese scrambled eggs and country ham. It was a big meal, so much I couldn't finish everything. My wife had the southwest scramble which was something right up her alley.

The place is relatively small with stools around 3 main counter areas. There are a few tables in the back, but the fun is at the counter. All of the food is prepared on the grill behind the counters. We sat on stools in the middle section and our server was awesome! The ambiance is great and the decor with records on the wall is very cool. The food here though was fantastic! I ordered the blueberry banana pancakes and my wife had an omelette. The pancakes were loaded with blueberries and were delicious! I really loved the interaction with our server and other customers. There's just such a friendly vibe here. We'll be back to Nashville in a couple of months with friends and we can't wait to take them here!

We dined early on a Saturday so it wasn't busy yet. Service was wonderful. Staff told us of their favorites and didn't steer us wrong. You must get the grits! They were delicious! Love how bright the inside is. I will visit again when I am in Nashville next.

    I've been wanting to try this place for ages, but it always seemed packed. Well, today (Memorial…read moreDay) was no different. I tried to swing by around ten minutes to noon, but it was a disaster. There were heaps of people waiting outside, and it didn't look promising. I went to the hostess stand and asked the guy if I could get a table for one, and he said, "Oh, you can sit at the bar; it's open seating. There's one open seat right there!" So, I walked through and was approached by another worker who asked me what I was doing. I told her the guy said I could sit at the bar, and there was an open seat, even though I never saw one. I did see open seats outside at the bar, though. The bar has two sides, one outside and one inside. It seemed alright; it wasn't too hot or humid, so I went. There were dirty dishes all over the place, and I sat down. Another worker asked me, "Are these dishes yours?" Which seemed a bit strange because the guy works the bar and wouldn't he have known the person sitting there before me left them? Anyway, I said no, and he cleared them. I then waited about 5 minutes before another worker skillfully wiped the bar of debris and then got three menus and three sets of silverware (two more guys sat down next to me) and asked me if I wanted water. I said, "Yes, please." She went off, and then shortly after, I saw the same guy come with a menu and a set of silverware and a water. Thumbs up for the water but thumb down for the slowness. I saw the menu and was torn between pancakes and biscuits. I didn't really want anything heavy, so I got the biscuits and gravy but added an egg. I also got a coffee. The wait time for the food was super quick, and the food was really good. The biscuits are small, and they're okay. The egg was good, but it's kinda hard to mess up an egg. I saw the food the people sitting next to me got, and it looked amazing! Pancakes, etc. Overall, the service was pretty bad, but the food was good. I saw no sense of urgency in the workers when they were obviously swamped. I might come when it's not so busy next time. Side note, maybe I'm showing my age, but the price of regular drip coffee was a bit steep. ($4).

The parking lot was packed and every table was full when we walked in, which is usually a great sign. The gal at the front desk let us know there would be a short wait, and sure enough, about 10 minutes later we were seated. We overheard that they were short staffed due to a callout, but honestly, you would not have known it from how smoothly things were moving. Our waitress was incredibly kind and welcoming, and she got our order in quickly despite juggling multiple tables. My husband went with the hot club sandwich and fries, and I ordered the chicken salad sandwich with onion rings. Let me just say, the food came out fast and absolutely delivered. My husband's sandwich had that picture perfect cheese pull moment that you hope for but rarely get, and it tasted just as good as it looked! My chicken salad was fresh, flavorful, and perfectly balanced. And the onion rings truly stole the show. Crispy on the outside, tender on the inside, lightly seasoned, and just the right texture with every bite. Easily some of the best I have ever had. It is easy to see why this place stays busy. The Glade Diner has that classic, well-loved feel where good food and friendly service come together in the best way. It's the kind of spot that makes you want to come back again and again just to work your way through the menu. We are already looking forward to our next visit.
