We attended a birthday celebration for my Dad - HAPPY BIRTHDAY . It was close to 8pm and we had yet to eat dinner. I accessed my trusty Yelp! app and did a search for restaurants near by. We decided on going to Speed Trap Diner in Woodville (my first time). If you are like me, and have never been to this establishment before and you are into eclectic scenery, you need to stop in at this place! It has plenty to keep your eyes busy all the while you are there. The eclectic decor is similar to another one of my faves, Tackle Box II located in Fremont. I was like a kid in a candy shop with a pocket full of money snapping pics (as you can see in this review). We ordered the Trailmarker Omelette (breakfast served all day) with hash browns & rye toast, and the Chicken Parmesan Sandwich. Trailmarker Omelette was stuffed full of corned beef hash with onions and peppers with a light coating of melted cheese (yum). The hashbrowns were done to perfection and the lightly buttered rye toast was almost like Texas Toast - nice and thick and tasted so, so good (especially with strawberry preserves or honey)! The Chicken Parmesan sandwich presentation wasn't nearly as much of a statement as the Trailmarker Omelette, but still just as tasty. Needless to say - true Diner food done right. The server was very pleasant, attentive, and quite knowledgeable of the menu offerings as well as the eclectic decor. We will definitely be back for another visit to Speed Trap Diner in the future!!! read more

Charming atmosphere that has a lot of decor. 2 burgers took an hour to get so service is not fast. The burgers were tasty and they had some unusual choices. read more

A total disaster for breakfast today. That moron they have cooking shouldn't be warming up microwave meals let alone cooking at a diner. I got the wrong omelet, my toast or at least i think it was supposed to be toast as I was burnt beyond recognition, by the time they made me what I ordered my husband was done eating , in the end I snd my husband hot into an argument over the fact that he asked for his toast dark and apparently the moron in the kitchen can't decipher as one person wants their bread dark everyone wants it burnt beyond recognition. I ended up throwing my entire breakfast in the trash right where it belongs along with the pseudo cook! read more

Best burgers. Seriously. I was pleasantly surprised. Also the waitress was extremely friendly.

I enjoyed this little hole in the wall, out in the middle of nowhere diner. I wanted to try something new so ordered a DB Cooper sandwich and it was crazy. Deep fried French toast, Mac and cheese, bologna and cheese. Felt like it was 5,000 calories but I saved half for later and was still satisfied. The service was also good but they weren't busy at all. I would go back for sure. read more

Found this gem of a local diner by accident while passing through. Seems to be a favorite with the locals. Great breakfast and very friendly and efficient staff! We did not have to wait long for our order even though the place was pretty busy. Interesting 50's decor. read more

Fun place to eat, due to the atmosphere. Have had breakfast and lunch over the years. Food is very good!!

Such a cute unique place! So many different foodies I would love to try, however, it's just a stop on the way to Sandusky for us! Make sure you go in the bathroom l, wish I could see the mens! I had the cake batter chocolate fudge buttercream shake and it was pretty good. My hubby cinnibunny he would get it again, definitely different. We tied the chu somethign sandwich and it tasted a lot like a bunch of sides out together but was pretty good, you need a fork and knife to eat it. The tot kegs were different, good to try once, wish they were a little less raw inside but good still. Cheese curds were nice and airy. read more

Such a fun place! Not a piece of wall that's not covered with vintage posters, bumper stickers, old vinyls, license plates. It's kitschy and funky. The food took 45 mins to come out so not a place to go if you are in a rush. But.... It was very, very good. Solid local place. The burgers are hand formed and 1/2 pound and cooked to order. We ordered Grilled cheese and tomato soup The BAM burger added fries The Sancho's burger added fries Original burger If you are in the area give you them a try. There's a pretty righteous looking ice cream place attached but we were stuffed! read more

The speed trap is a fantastic place to eat in any City. Woodville is very lucky to have them there. The service is excellent with a friendly staff and fast service. All the walls are done up in 50s diner car rock and roll amusement memorabilia. The place has a sense of humor and the food is out of this world. Straight off around 66 or 69. I had a interesting burger with a pulled pork on top. The sauce was very spicy and it had spicy cheese to boot. I really liked it. Others had the Disco burger and they thought it was pretty good. My dad is 95 years old and I never see him eat much. But he finished half a 1/2 lb Disco Burger, so I was happy about that. He loved the strawberry rhubarb pie, and especially the flaky crust. I'm going to guess we'll be back although I live in Florida maybe I'll have to take a trip up here just for this restaurant. read more

Hippie Chicken is spicy without burning you up and is delicious. Awesome tater tots, good fries, excellent onion rings! Get your eat on when you order a burger ! Excellent and large! Just a really cool old school diner with awesome ambiance inside, 50's style with 80's glam! Service couldn't have been better, nice, friendly staff, place was packed and got our food with in 20 minutes! Pepsi products, check times before stopping, closed at 2pm on Sunday. Highly recommend it if ever driving on historic US 20 in Woodville Ohio. read more

Not only did i wait for 45 minutes for my food, But there was a black hair sitting on top of it when it arrived at my table. The waitress did apologize but kept saying to me "we all have our hair tied back so i'm not sure how that happened" My response was "well i have red hair so it definitely is not mine" . She did comp it off the bill which was nice. i ordered something different because i know some restaurants will take it back, Take the hair off, and reserve it. When i wanted to order something different she began to have an attitude with me. Almost like it was an issue that i didnt want to eat that one or have a new one made. I just ordered something small and then dessert. Once i finished my dessert though she proceeded to tell me with a snarky attitude "good job for finishing it" mind you it was a little lava cake i ordered. Was maybe 3 bites. This by far was my worst experience there. It is a cute little hole in the wall but i'm not sure that i will return read more

Cute looking diner, with lots of decorations, but do NOT go unless you have 45 minutes to wait for your food (burgers were ordered), and you don't mind seeing half of the food you ordered get delivered to another table. For a table of 4, we were not asked once in the hour+ we were there if we would like refills, or how the food was. read more

We decided to try this diner after driving by several times. Went in on Saturday night, restaurant was about 1/3 full. We ordered shakes and a cuban and burger no pickles. For health reason I don't eat pickles. 35 minutes went by and the sandwiches finally arrived. During the wait no one came by or checked on us. The cuban was bbq pork, not a cuban and the description did not say bbq. My burger had pickles on it . When I brought it to the waitresses attention, she asked me if I could just take them off . NO. She said she would have it made again, no apology. 30 minutes later, my husband is done so we asked for the check. I told the waitress, just cancel the order. She insisted that I eat it in the car or take it home. I am not giving you a tip so I can eat alone and take it to go. I told her no thank you, I wanted to eat here with my husband. She got snotty with me and said.. If you would've been willing to wait we could've gotten that burger up to you. No apology, nothing. She brought the bill and didn't have the drinks on it so we brought it to their attention and waited for the bill to be fixed. One star because you can't give 0. But when you make someones burger wrong theirs should be the first one the cook makes since the customer had already waited for over 30 minutes. One star because as someone in the customer service industry that is expecting a tip, check in once in awhile and apologize. They were not short staffed, we saw many people working, just in case anyone thought that is the excuse. read more

Speed Trap Diner - cuban? no! was more like bbq pork - Diners Near Me - Woodville, Ohio

Sure it has a lot of old-school decor in it. But the water in the bathroom is ice cold. Hardly any heat in the entire place. Top it off. The food is absolutely disgusting. I could've gotten a better burger from McDonald's. read more

Ice cream was okay, costumer service was not good. Serving me was a insanely tall blonde girl, i asked for her name, she said kylie. She was very rude from the get go. Asking me "what do you want" in a rude tone. Usually i get a "hi how are you, what would you like to order?" Never just a "what do you want" I felt very unwelcome. Not to mention the vape she had in her sleeve the entire time. Pretty disgusting and unprofessional. After that I told her what I wanted and she continued the attitude and rude tone until the end. She asked me for a tip. I told her I don't think thats nessacary due to her poor costumer service. I believe this is insane and has never happened to me before but these past few months the costumer service has gone downhill especially with this specific worker. read more

This is such a fun place to visit whenever I am in the area. You could spend hours just staring at the walls and taking in all of the decorations. From James Dean to a Supertramp vinyl record, there is plenty to take in while you are waiting for your food. Their chocolate chip pancakes are larger than life and very sweet - just the way I like them! It's always nice stop here for a nice, quick breakfast. read more

Don't have the salads- they're disappointing and not why you're there. Fries, burgers, sandwiches, omelets, homemade soup- all tasty! Be prepared to wait- they have a small grill and usually only one person serving. The decor is fun to look at. Definitely small town charm. read more

Very cool decorating inside and out. Caught my eye a soon as I could see it. The service was good, looked like there was one waiter for all the tables. He got around to every table equally in a timely manner. I especially appreciated him refilling my drink even when I hadn't asked! The only negative was the wait. About a 20-30 minute wait for only two meals. Could've been worse (I've had worse) but still not the best. The candy cakes (pancakes) were WAY bigger than I had expected. I'd recommend getting only one unless your prepared. Overall good place, I'd definitely eat here again! read more

Fantastic find! This place would not have even been on my radar had it not been for Yelp! My son and I order to of their specialties sandwiches for lunch. I can't remember what they were called, nor can I pronounce it, but one had mac and cheese, fried pickles, and pulled pork. All on a pretzel bun. The other had Mac and cheese with mozzarella cheese sticks. Both sandwiches were delicious! The the decor is pretty neat, too. I am very glad we found this place, and would come back again in a heart beat. Service was fast and friendly as well. read more

Long wait for food and food was cold. Service was fine as far as availability. Wouldn't recommend it for breakfast anyway.

Tasty diner fare in a really fun setting. Great service and friendly staff. Soup, perch dinner, and burger were all good. Breakfast options ( served all day) looked fabulous. We'll be back. read more

Speed Trap Diner - A burger and fries - Diners Near Me - Woodville, Ohio

This is a fun venue, decorated with memorabilia and a great theme. One of only a few restaurants in Woodville, Ohio, this was a great breakfast out with my family before heading home after spending the weekend together. I ordered a cheese omelette. It was cooked very well, the potatoes were seasoned nicely and it was delicious. There were many versions of an omelette and several other breakfast choices I will try the next time. I appreciate when the decision is difficult. It's a sign of a great menu. The real surprise was the french toast one of the kids ordered at the table - it tasted like a pastry, it had the perfect texture and had the perfect amount of cinnamon. I suppose this is what deep-frying offers to food. It wasn't greasy and didn't need butter or syrup, in my opinion - it was that good all on its own. Parking: large parking lot out front Location: one block from downtown Woodville; just before speed limit turns to 50 leaving town; right after dropping coming into town (hence the name of the venue) Pricing: very affordable Decor: fun, 50's road trip theme in dining area - bathrooms have celebrity themes (I won't spoil the surprise but go wash your hands. Trust me.) Food: We ordered four different items, shared everything and it was all really good. Something for everyone - from kind of healthy to not healthy at all. Very good menu. read more

This place is INCREDIBLE! Their ice cream selections are seemingly endless. Their pancakes are HUGE. And my favorite characteristic of Speedtrap: the decorations. There are roads on the floor, license plates everywhere, road signs, and even their bathrooms are decorated from floor-to-ceiling. Not only is their food delicious, but just sitting in the place is an experience itself. I love it here. read more

Wonderful find driving through. The decor is really interesting and fun. The food is great and exceeded my expectations. We got burgers (three different types) and all of them were juicy and delicious. The fries are excellent. We also had the onion rings and they were not greasy at all. We will be back the next we drive out that way! read more

Usually food is very good but today it was awful ordered a Gibsonburger which is essentially a patty melt with grilled onion and melted cheese. They were out of rye bread so they made my party melt with Texas toast which may have been ok if it were truly a patty melt but what I got was a hamburger with two slices of cheese, raw onions on dry toast read more

Great food. Definitely worth the money. Burgers are huge. You leave there hungry it's your own fault

Servers were great. Kitchen was ridiculously slow. It looked like they cooked one table at a time. It took an hour to get our food. The food was good. I got a Bason Classic burger , which the menu stated was "topped your way". They charged me a quarter for a tomato. My wife got a grilled chicken sandwich- another quarter for mayo. Definitely not worth the wait with so many other restaurants around. Definitely won't be back. read more

We stopped at this restaurant after leaving a car dealership in the area . We walked in & sat down . Looks like there were 2 servers , we waited about 15 minutes for someone to greet us at our table . These servers walked past our table numerous times with NO acknowledgement whatsoever. We finally decided to leave . Super strange , non friendly environment. Do not recommend. read more

We arrived at 4:30 a couple on their bike arrived 15mins after us and six people from the round table came 20mins after us. The server took 25/35 mins before taking our order and bringing our drinks then after waiting an hour n 10mims we got our food AFTER all the locals that arrived after us. If Sam and Jeff still own this place they should school their servers. I would have tipped her a $50 in a small town bcuz I too once served in Elmore at the Village Inn and know how little servers earn but the service was HORRIBLE. The food though WOW FRESH the fries were delicious and fresh. The burger was a tad over cooked and my cheese looked like it was added way after it was ready. We are moving out of the city back to O.H. This month and hope our next visit is better. It must have thrown her off or something is looking like city slickers lol read more

Service was a bit slow. Tomato soup from a can. Roast beef tender but chunks instead of sliced, more like stew meat or chopped up beef from a food service tray. Mashed potatoes were instant. Pepper shaker empty. Actually for a diner, I would expect home cooked food not warmed up food service fare. A hot roast beef sandwich (and hot turkey sandwich) is a diner staple item. If you can't get that right, you shouldn't call yourself a diner. Cutesy retro decor is fun but what's the point if the food is mediocre. In addition, there was actually a radar cop in town so you literally risk a speeding ticket to get to "The Speed Trap". read more

Not sure why this place has two pages, but they should be merged. I stopped in today on my way home from a trip to Tiffin. They weren't overly busy, but it was steady. My food came in about 15 minutes, probably a little slow for a sandwich, but it was affordable and very tasty. I'm ok with the wait. The wait was actually a bonus as I get to explore the awesome decor all over the restaurant. From the floor to the roof it is packed with cool stuff. Some would say overly cluttered, but I like the homey kitsch of it all. The waitress was amazingly nice and friendly. I'd go back just for the great service. read more
