We went to McGrane's on the Green for the first time today for the Biscuits and Gravy. They had a…read moregenerous amount of sausage gravy that completely buried the biscuits but it was lukewarm. The waitress disappeared before I could call it to her attention and I had to go up to the counter to let them know. They were very apologetic and heated up our plates but we could not finish them because they were not very appetizing. I had to flag down the waitress to ask for a coffee refill. My wife had a side of sausage patties which apparently gave her gastrointestinal distress. When we went to pay, we discovered they take CASH or CHECK ONLY. Luckily I had enough cash because I rarely carry cash any more. Sad because we were looking for a local breakfast spot.

Then let's talk about the food and small town America vibe. It's an old school diner feel with a counter and photos on the walls. The menu is everything you expect from a legit diner -- burgers and fries and ice cold cokes. All perfectly prepared and presented. What did I have? Two eggs over medium on a toasted everything bagel with melted Swiss cheese and a side of fries. What did I get? Exactly what I ordered! And fast! Woohoo for McGrane's. They got it going on!

There were plants everywhere in the dining space, just didn't match up. (The pendant lights were nice but the mismatch could have looked artistic but instead just looked mismatched). Kitchen looked not well kept and disorganized. Our wait staff was very informal and not consistent, had to ask for silverware when salad was served. When pizza came had to replace silverware because when they removed salad bowls took the silverware. Salad was good, but was surprised the salad dressing came out in take out containers since we were at a sit down dinner. It felt like we were at a take out place. We ordered the pizza special butternut squash, onions, bacon and cheese, didn't realize it was going to be a white pizza, the toppings were disproportionate, heavy on bacon (was too salty), after the first bite not so great.

The cheap add-ons shouldn't cost as much as the actual entrée. Nothing here is homemade--everything is clearly purchased in bulk from Costco (Kirkland brand) and Restaurant Depot.

To make matters worse, they shortcut the cooking by deep-frying the bacon and home fries before finishing them on the grill, leaving the food completely oversaturated with grease.

You will need to ask. My major bugaboo is that the menu is pretty unclear. If you order a veggie omelette you might think it comes with at least some veggies in it. Apparently the $9.99 is the base price for just the eggs, and each item is added for $0.99 each. So when we ordered we were asked if we want all the veggies, it was unclear that this meant do you want to add $10 worth of extra items to the omelette. (Cheese is somehow extra too). The food was fine. Not worth $38 for eggs, toast homefries and the aforementioned omelette. So this is a once and done for us. And yes as others have said this is a cash only place.

While this is pretty much a drinking establishment for bikers, it will draw an eclectic crowd on Sundays depending on the band's following.

The serving comes with a generous slice of prime rib, heaping pile of mashed potatoes with gravy, and green bean almondine. Definitely worth a try.

And its almost a pass through to a main street. Employees were patient with us while we took a little time to decide on what to order. My main reason for stopping in was an iced coffee. They have many syrup and milk options. I decided on a brown sugar cinnamon iced coffee with half and half. Too much half and half was added to my drink. My iced coffee still tasted good. Onto the food - I chose a breakfast wrap, and my husband the hot honey chicken sandwich. My breakfast wrap was sausage, egg, and cheese. The wrap came with avocado which I dont like. The women at the register offered me a hash brown instead which worked great. Between the iced coffee and the wrap it was a hearty breakfast. My husband enjoyed the hot honey on his sandwich. And was surprised he liked the bun. Crumbs is small on the inside. So its not the spot for a group. However You and a Friend, or You and Your Sister can hang out for a while.

The servers are absolutely charming (thank you to…read morethe beautiful, jewelry-making Christina), pricing is circa 1995, there's a great children's menu -- and there is clearly some skill in this kitchen, generally. I love that you get unlimited refills on coffee ($2), which was actually quite decent by diner standards. Where else can you find that nowadays?! Eggs were well prepared and fluffy across the board. I loved that my veggie omelet ($8.75) came generously filled with sauteed mushrooms, sweet peppers, and onions. It came with toast and a side of either fruit or home fries. The multigrain, which our server disclosed was from a bakery in NY, was fresh, well slathered with butter, and far better than it had to be as a non-headline component of the meal. Home fries were beautifully seasoned, though I do prefer mine a little more browned. Fruit salad on our visit included a slice of melon, a few grapes and a slice of orange. Our eight year old got a children's meal with one egg, home fries, toast and juice ($4.50). She enjoyed her fluffy scrambled eggs, which she ate sandwiched between two halves of a generously buttered English muffin. My only nitpick: You could taste a touch of margarine in the eggs, which I personally detest. Still, the food was head and shoulders better than (and half as expensive as) anything you can find at Mohawk Mountain, where we are usually resigned to grub. We are so, so thrilled to find this sweet little place a hop and a skip away from the mountain. It's a perfect place to refuel after early morning ski practice!
