    This is it!

    If you want a traditional diner this is the place. Open since 1961. Cash only. I had the grilled cheese and a Greek salad. Best grilled cheese I've ever ordered in a restaurant. The salad used head lettuce and only Italian dressing is available but had a great variety of veggies. Very good taste. My friend had a pastrami on rye and said it was very good. My partner had pepper steak. It came covered in gravy and peppers with mashed potatoes and beans. He said he thought every thing was fresh and home made. High praise for him. The staff was efficient. The cook is original to the diner and knows her stuff. This is a diner no frills just good food. It took me back to my childhood.

    Don't let the outside throw you, really decent place that looks like a timepiece. Prices are cheap waitress sweet . Yummmy

    This is what you call old school diner with delicious homemade food. Prices are so reasonable it's like your in a time warp! The girls running it are so friendly and highly recommend if you want to experience great food, great prices!

    Amazing food!!!

    The food is delicious and I definitely recommend this place when you're hungry and near by. It's calm and quiet and the food comes very fast. The people are very nice and there is amazing customer service. If you come here to eat, you won't be disappointed.

    A very small non-chain local place.

    The waitress was also the cook and handled the whole restaurant by herself. Food prices are probably the most reasonable we have seen anywhere. We had a very good breakfast here.

Something tasted off about the soup. - Spaghetti and meatballs: The sauce was flavorless and the meatballs were very strangely seasoned. - A French dip sandwich: I should have known that this would be awful when the menu said it had cheddar cheese. I subbed in Swiss and it was still awful. The meat was very dry and flavorless. - Kids' chicken fingers and fries: This was fine. All told, we had two entrees, a kids meal, and a bowl of soup. Along with two sodas, the total came to almost $70 before tip. That's a lot more than I wanted to spend for such lousy food. Prices of some other items (especially drinks) were even more absurd. I'm not going to pay $7 for a Coors light. I'm definitely not going to pay $17 (!!!) for a Long Island iced tea at some random diner. Service was fine.

I got a omelette special called the Vermont Omelette with apples, bacon, red onions and cheddar. The Home fries were seasoned with pepper and very tasty. Portions were perfect with most plates completely empty at the end and happy tummies. The owner and waitres were attentive. The owner noticed my daughter liked the doilies from under the fruit cups and gave her more to do art projects with at home. Food was solid, service friendly, street parking was easy and right in front. Would definitely eat here again and encourage others to as well!

On top of that, the pancakes were fabulous. Maybe they tasted so good because I don't remember the last time I had pancakes. I do, however, remember coming here often as a kid, and coming here tonight, there was a little bit of nostalgia, as if reliving fond childhood memories. The only difference is then I was eating with family, whereas tonight was a late night solo venture. But the waiter made me feel like family. So 5 stars 4 ya Denny's! p.s. I swear there was a pint of blueberries in just two pancakes. They definitely didn't skimp on the fruit. I actually asked to speak with the chef, and asked her (Melinda) if it was okay if I have her a shout out. As you can guess from reading this, she said yes. She said she's here five overnights a week. So chances are, if you're coming in early/late, she'll hook you up too. Again, Melinda, thank you!!

The service is usually pretty good, sometimes they can get a little busy(like Saturday mornings). I'm only docking a star due to consistency/ food temp/ lack of menu items sometimes.

Kids eat free on Tuesdays with purchase of an adult meal! ;-)

    Affordable farm-to-table experience, rural heartland diner with world class cooking…read more Everything we ate at the diner tasted like Grandma used to make, that is, if Grandma were Julia Child. We had an exceptional omelette made with local eggs, with fresh veggies sauteed perfectly, delectable expertly seasoned home fries, the best biscuits and gravy this side of heaven, followed by perfect lemon meringue pie which words simply cannot describe. All brought to us by a gentleman who missed his calling in standup comedy. To say that we're hoping to go back soon is the understatement of the century. We adore this place It's difficult for me to fathom how the food can possibly be this delicious, but I guess divine intervention is still a thing, these "meals that heal" are nothing short of sacred. So good. Mandatory upstate dining for locals, family, tourists, foodies, and any hungry angels passing through.

We sat down and it took 10 min to get water. The girl waiting the tables was sweet, but things move faster in the south than they did here. We had to call her over to place the order. Finally got my order, sat and waited until the waitress walked past hubby's burger 3 times before realizing it was ready for pickup. Meanwhile we have no Silverware/napkins. Jeff had the special of the day Swiss burger. Should have asked the price for the special - when we got the bill it was itemized from Burger down to the tomato. It was in NO way a burger baked at the $16+ price! The hot turkey sandwich tasted like the turkey was microwaved - chewy- the gravy was extremely heavy with the taste of poultry seasoning and pepper. It really wasn't good. We sat for quite awhile before finally asking the waitress to bring our check. I will Leave this with two positives - the fries were good and the waitress was friendly, when she was around. It was not worth $33 for this lunch.
