Service was fairly quick, and my salisbury steak was the best I've ever had. The sides of coleslaw and (super buttery) mashed potatoes were also flavorful and filling and balanced the meal out perfectly. We found the peach cobbler to be a tad sweet for our taste, but it was such a hearty meal overall.

During the wait you think "this MUST be THE place to be." Nice enough waitress- busy but attentive and friendly. Was told by a patron outside the biscuits and gravy were the best! So we got that - so bland. The gravy tasted like flour and water. A few tiny bits of sausage but NO flavor. The biscuit was ok- it's a biscuit. It came with home fried potatoes- that had NO oil/ grease. It was just sliced potatoes - no oil, peppers, onion, no spice, seemingly not even S&P. Another friend had a special French toast- she enjoyed those. The pancake was fine - pancakes are easy to love. They didn't have maple syrup which maybe is too much to expect - I know it's pricey. The prices were good here - I'll give them that !!

Poppy's Place in Front Royal is a TOTAL return to another time. Poppy, after whom the restaurant is…read morenamed, is the grandfather of the people who work (and I suspect at least partially own) the place. You walk in and order at the counter. This is a down home breakfast place where clearly everything is made to order from scratch. When we arrived, there was a woman waiting on a large takeout order. The order was for the wedding party for her daughter who was getting married that day. The bride so loves this place that she wanted her wedding party to share breakfast from her favo spot. So you get the picture. Very simple, very local. We ordered an array of breakfast items that included omelettes, grilled cheese, egg and cheese and pancakes, toast, along with coffee. The service was wonderful, the people who work here are wonderful. The food is good, certainly not great. I am from a bigger city and perhaps my expectations are skewed from that. This is a great place to visit for breakfast just outside of the National Park and it feels nice to support the local business. Just know what to expect.

Drove all the way from Jersey to find a waitress from Cherry Hill ... felt welcome right away!!…read more We had been on the road for a couple hours and needed breakfast. "Our Home Town Diner" sounded good, had positive reviews, and most importantly was open at 7am. What a treat and definitely a feel of home town friendliness including the aforementioned waitress who almost was from our home town. I spotted the Jar Bowl on the menu so I asked the waitress how their sausage gravy was. She said both the sausage and chopped beef gravies were "really delicious" so I said give me the Jar with its biscuit, gravy, meat-filled omelette and jalapenos (She did ask if I was aware of those spicy devil's and I just smiled ). The "Jar Bowl" was AWESOME and the gravy delicious (I only order "gravy" in southern states.)!! Everyone's breakfasts were delicious and more than reasonably priced plus the coffee kept coming!! The dining room had historic photos and we flew at home! What a great place to eat!!

My experience has always been the same. It's exactly what I'm looking for. The boss and the cooks…read moreknow how to make simple, delicious food for their customers. The eggs always freshly hot from the pan, the toast freshly toasted. The bacon perfect as ordered--crisp, not scorched. The scrapple crunchy-soft, never having sat for long. I haven't had the sausage yet. More to come. These are basics done right, and that's no small thing. I've only occasionally had lunch, but the homemade soups are like your mother's. And although I've never met a milkshake I didn't like, I'm convinced the Queen Streeter brain trust understands the importance of high-quality ice cream. It's evident. The best measure of any essential eatery is its burger and chicken salad sandwich. Both get an A.

Stopped in to the Queen Street Diner for breakfast on a weekday morning. Ordered the Sausage gravy…read moreand biscuits, plus two eggs (over easy), a side of bacon, and water. Food came out fairly quickly. Everything was hot. My only gripe - and this applies to most of the diners I've visited - everyone makes their sausage gravy the same way - bland and under seasoned. I can see the bits of sausage in the gravy - but it does not taste "sausagey." I added a good bit of salt, pepper, and hot sauce - to give it some flavor. The bacon and eggs were cooked properly - and were tasty for what they are. Coffee was average - nothing to wow me. Service was good. Paid with cash. #QueenStreetDiner

The thing that put me off was the aggressive signage everywhere prohibiting this and that.

The Cheesesteaks did NOT disappoint! The in-house sliced Ribeye, onion and Cooper cheese is so well combined on the grill that it has to be magic! OH and the Onion Rings are a great Go With!
