    a slice of cake on a plate
    Eric S.

    I popped in here while I was in town not expecting much, and it wasn't, but the food filled a hole. It's really your "basic bitch" kind of eatery. Sort of like a diner but doesn't seem to me like a diner. Not a hole-in-the-wall greasy spoon, but nothing spectacular either. The clientele weren't friendly but they didn't go out of their way to be dicks either. There was this one dude who worked in the kitchen who looked like he might be some kind of backwoods serial killer. The waitress who served me seemed like she gave up, on everything, a long time ago. However I rated this place so high because she took the fact I casually didn't tip her like a pro. Like she expected that, and my frugal side respects that. It wasn't just the people but the food itself that was passable, but like I said I ate it and the price was reasonable. I didn't spend more than $12 all together for the Rueben Sandwich, that was mostly sour kraut (that should have come with chips), fountain soda, and chocolate cake (which was the best part of the meal). I would say save this place as a dessert stop after eating at McDonald's.

    Good home style food and very inexpensive! The salads are huge, the Friday haddock dinner feeds two. My go to place for a good meal.

    This is a great place for old people. The food is bland. They do a great breakfast but not so good dinner.

    No longer there. Is now a dairy bar and creamery. Haven't been there yet but maybe this summer.

    I recommend the Jill's Salad with two House dressings.

    Visiting from MO - Excellent food and service from this family owned diner in a quaint little town,…read morewhere "everybody knows your name!" The waitresses were so sweet and friendly'!

    Sunday morning, my son and I went in for breakfast. I really wanted to like this place. Our second…read moretime here, and they were pleasantly busy. He ordered pancakes and bacon. I ordered a plate of 6 scrambled eggs and a side of bacon. With only two cheese selections, I added Swiss instead of American cheese. He had a glass of water, I ordered coffee. When the food arrived, he said to try a bite - yep, his pancakes were rubbery and tasteless. I told him I was sorry and then we could get something else later. He just ate his bacon. My eggs were mostly Swiss cheese. More cheese than eggs, It's as if whoever plated this food could not have cared any less. Neither of us were interested in finishing our breakfast, but not to the point of posting a yelp review. My major complaint? We went up to pay and it was $35 - before tip. I was shocked and I said as much. The owner /manager explained that "adding 4 extra eggs and cheese was the difference." Just... Wow. "would you like to add a tip?" Ugh. I still added 20% as I'm not a cheapskate. Total was $42. Good job folks. Maybe your experience will be different. Maybe it was a one-time mistake. But they had a chance to make this right. I got Fire-hosed and that's on them. I'm local and might've become a regular. Looks like a win for the Starlite diner in Hanover.
