I'm a fan of diners and this one is my favorite. So much so that my second favorite is kind of distant second.
Men's Health MagMay 5, 2015The diner opened in 1946 and still supplements the familiar fare with a local delicacy known as a steamed cheeseburger. Another possibility: the Greens Supreme soup. Read more
Cole TJune 11, 2017Was blown away by the food here; got the special one Saturday morning which featured what felt like a trip through Ireland. Had to wait in line outside due to space limitations inside!
Everything about this diner is *AWESOME*! I especially love the little sweetbread morsels you get before you order.
Gregory BrennanJanuary 21, 2013Tremendous breakfast selection for a diner. Try the Bob Wolf omelette named after a regular patron. It's a Mexican spiced omelette. Usually crowded.
Sue ArsenaultMarch 18, 2017Banana Bread french toast...a real treat, but very rich. I brought half home & had it for supper. Yum...
Ben EnserJanuary 7, 2016Outstanding service. Great off beat menu. Went out of their way to greet out of towners.- Allergy friendly! The specials are amazing as are the steamed cheeseburgers! Their coffee isn't swill either! That's rare for a diner!
Slumlord NeilSeptember 29, 2013It's already been said, but this is the best breakfast ever! You must get the jalapeno bacon!!
Best breakfast in New England. Multiple award winner. Not to be missed!
- XMarch 28, 2012Feel like you've just spent a shit ton of money on a college education and don't know what to do with your life? First things first: get the graduate omelette. Hey, it's a start….
- Claudia CTApril 16, 2013Vinnie's special surprise breakfast would be the right thing for my BF! Gotta bring him here soon!
I haven't met an omelette I didn't like here. And make sure to talk some baseball with Brian.
Becky RussoJune 30, 2019Can’t comment on the food because they closed the door in our faces an hour and a half before their listed “closing” time. Made a special detour to try this place and it was extremely disappointing.

ryanOctober 19, 2013Only one bathroom in the back. Watch out for the faucet because it shoots out like a firehose.
Gaby GingolaJanuary 20, 2016Overrated, honestly. The servers are rude and the fact that they close at 2pm is absurd

"This diner has been around for as long as I can remember. Take a look at the pictures of patrons on the wall. Kay, the proprietor, remembers EVERYONE (even me!) and often has stories to tell, too! :)"
