If you like Mennonite-style Chicken Noodle Soup, this is the place, based on personal experience…read more Toppers had a fire and after the renovations is very clean (used to be very dirty). However, if it's service you're after, chicken strips or breakfast, I cannot in good conscience recommend you go here.
In late Feb of 2021 we decided to go for dinner. Service was acceptable (if you don't mind flagging down waitress for a coffee refill), however the chicken strips were incredibly over-cooked and dry. Even my 2 year old (who is happy like most kids that age eating basically anything--dirt included) spit the dry chicken out lol!
Forward to today, we thought we'd try it one more time and see how their breakfasts were. Meals came and still no cutlery, so I had to ask for it. Shredded hash browns still had a slight crunch from not being cooked enough (yelp!), and the scrambled eggs were nearly room-temp-clammy-cool. It should be noted that we watched our meals on the 'shelf' in the kitchen, waiting to be delivered, for ~7-8 minutes, so this pretty much explains the lack of heat.
Upon paying, I was asked how the meal was by the waitress/cashier and responded by telling her the facts of our experience, listed above. She said she was sorry we weren't happy with it, and said she brought our meals as quick as she could, as if feeling guilty. She seemed somewhat put off by my honesty in sharing the issues, so I told her that I only shared because she had asked me how it was. I honestly wouldn't have mentioned it otherwise.
Then, the 'Topper' was to hear the OWNER grumbling under his breath, refusing to make eye contact with me, his customer. When I said "what was that?, I didn't hear you..." he repeated, without looking up, "It's nice to hear everybody is in a good mood today".
Well, my friend, I was..,and still am in a good mood, in spite of getting 2 sub-par breakfasts and paying you money.
Having owned my own restaurant in the past, I was appalled that a proprietor would be this rude to a paying customer, so yes: that will be our last time being patrons of 'Toppers'.
