This place is amazing! First of all this place is like a second family. If you come regularly they will know you and what you like to order. Everyone is super friendly, funny and genuinely cares about how life is going and let me tell you about the food YUM! This is BY FAR the best diner I have EVER been to. I always get the florentine omelet with porkroll, home fries and 2 blueberry muffins. It's enough that I get a second meal out if it. The omelet has the PERFECT amount of cheese. I'm someone who always orders extra cheese normally for an upcharge but not here! This omelet is perfect the way it is! The right amount of cheese and the flavors make your mouth think it's in heaven! Let me tell you about their blueberry muffins! To DIE FOR! THEY ARE HUGE, GRILLED AND WARM! Add some butter and enjoy! They are the best muffins I've ever had! The staff including the owners go out of their way to help you and make sure you are good. They will chat with you about life and take care of all your diner needs very quickly! I just love it here! It's like a second family! This place is just the best! I love the atmosphere and employees. It's also super affordable! I get so much food for 20 like enough for 2.5 meals! It is cash only so bring cash but the food is so amazing that doesn't even matter!

Great food & great service! Love coming here! The food is always mouthwatering amazing!!! The staff is always so pleasant and helpful. I do not have a bad thing to say about this place, except they have the ability to take all my money. Seriously though, the prices aren't even bad. Totally affordable for anyone. Will never stop coming here! I can't wait to go back already!!!

Found this little gem on a cold Sunday morning about a week ago (mid-April 2023) and my family and I are so happy we did! The atmosphere is very cozy and “homey”. We were greeted warmly as soon as we walked in (party of 3) and welcomed to sit wherever we liked. Upon sitting, our waitress came right over and took our drink order (all coffees) while handing out menus. Our coffees came out super fast and we had all the fixings needed (sugar, regular and diet) cream, milk, etc. Our waitress even offered French Vanilla creamer (my fav!) :) As for our meals, we had biscuits with sausage gravy, chipped beef on biscuits, eggs with bacon and home fries, and a side of toasted blueberry muffin. Everything came out so fast, hot and incredibly delicious. Their gravy for the sausage gravy and chipped beef is probably one of the best we’ve had in this area in the past 3 years of having moved to PA. It is so flavorful and the perfect consistency. Our waitress checked on us frequently and was very personable and pleasant, even joking with us about SOS (my husband didn’t know what it meant!) Aside from their great menu with its selections of breakfast items, there was also a specials board with other items not on the menu, which all sounded amazing and made it hard to choose on what to get! They also serve lunch as they stay open a bit past noon so we will definitely be back soon to try their lunch menu. Just a note, they’re cash only. We didn’t notice if there was an atm available as we checked online before hand if they accepted cards or not and came prepared but we found the prices to be reasonable and their portions generous. Thanks for a 1st great visit!

My wife and I had the pleasure of eating here this morning. Probably the best breakfast spot ever. The owner Danny is an amazing guy serving great quality food with great service. My coffee never got empty and they checked in all the time. My wife got the eggs benedict and they were the best we have ever had, hands down! I got the country fried steak and it was very good with an amazing gravy. I really wanted to try as much as I could, so I also got a pancake and a sausage link, both were amazing! If you haven't tried these guys out you have too. It is a hard favorite for me now. Thanks Danny and staff for a great experience!!

Food and service fabulous. It's a small space and always crowded, so you're not having a quiet meal. Local place with local customers.
