Stopped in foe a late night snack ...did the cheeseburger and warshed it down wit a 'boozy shake ' which was awesome! Definitely a place to hit up son ???? ????

Brian Kuberski

Great diner ; staff is super friendly & super chill . Don't come here if you are in a hurry; a big part of the appeal is that its not a drive-by experience; they will talk. Try the Frank Sinatra martini

Their boozy shakes are so good! Also the fries with gravy and cheese curds are scrumptious!

The train wreck fries are the best! Who would have thought chili cheese fries and poutine go so well together

The drinks. Crafted and delicious. Extra time to prepare, but worth the wait. Chicken and waffle sliders are amazeballs.

Get the ham and cheese omelet w/breakfast tarred and English muffin ! Gf had oatmeal w/granola and yogurt ! Huge servings! Great service!

OMG, the pancakes ! Amazing. Veggie sausage , not so much. Hash browns have some odd seasoning I wasn't expecting. But the PANCAKES!

The chilaquiles are amazing... Almost as good as my momma makes them.

Saleena Manoha

Barrel aged long island . YASSS. Ask for it.

Leah Sinsheimer

Polenta cakes breakfast comes with delicious candied bacon .

Julia P

Food looks good but doesn't taste good. The hash is dry - did they run out of oil? The pancakes are burnt and hard to chew. Coffee is LUKEWARM.
