Amazing breakfast and lunch options. Try the monkey french toast or any of the specials. They are all superb. Other favorites are the grits , bacon , and biscuits . My mississippi friends loved them!

Small establishment in South Philly which is obviously been local favorite for a decade. Wait can be long; be sure to have all members of your party present. Portions are enormous and tasty.

Heath Terry

Great spot. Really creative menu, very well executed. Way more than the word “diner ” implies. Biscuits , pancakes , housemade sausage , was all delicious.

Natalie

Their breakfast platters are delicious and super filling. Their biscuits and home fries are on point.

Michael Gelberg

Super cozy vibes, good crowd and solid food. The cannoli filling as a side for the pancakes was a clutch move.

David Guerrieri

They make their own jam ? What more must I say? The best brunch for the best price in Philly. Huge portions .... I like to share.... On of my must go places when I visit my hometown!

Delicious! Totally worth the wait! French toast and frittatas are superb!

Jess Butler

The frittata special was great. And I didn't leave a single crumb of biscuit on my plate. No regrets.

Sandra Rubinchik

Cash only , but there's an ATM on premises. Also a fire pit if you're waiting outside — which you are because there's no room to wait inside.

Lauren Smith

Get here early to avoid a long wait on the weekend. Cash only but they have an atm on-site.

Larisa Grollemond

No nonsense neighborhood diner with a hipster brunch following. Get the pancake special .

Monte Cristo Sandwich . Friggin fantastic! Comes with their own homemade strawberry sauce .

The pancakes are made by leprechauns; it's the only explanation for how good they are. Also, the chef said so.

David Neaves

The biscuits are like cake ! very dense. very slow getting food , only 1 cook. but worth the wait!
