Didn't like the food. The service wasn't any better. Wasn't worth getting out of the car. Any drive-thru breakfast would have been comparable.

My wife and I travel quite a bit, and are always looking for the little, off-the-beaten-path type place to eat breakfast, lunch or dinner. This isn't one of those places!

We went for breakfast on a Monday morning. True, the staff was friendly enough, but the food was some of the worst diner food I've ever had to force down. I have a large appetite, and ordered several menu items. None of it was good. Even the orange juice was nasty!

Save your calories and money for something really good. We felt lucky to escape this place with the defection of only a few of our tastebuds!

A great old time diner atmosphere. You can still eat in the original diner car or in the other two attached building additions. Great for couples or families. Awesome breakfast- the food was very good and the portions above average. The Maryland Crab omelet was very good - none of the fake crab here! Good food that is standard to most diners, but what makes this diner great is the staff and the atmosphere. A true classic diner. The staff is friendly, helpful, and make you feel at home.
