First time here on a busy Sunday morning, and I really like this place.
We were greeted within a minute, seated quickly and Morgan our server was very personable!
Our food was delicious and this may be our new breakfast place!!!Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - 477096Apr 19, 20241 check-in
I love a good diner and this was it. It has many tables and booths so seating is not a problem. It was busy, but the staff were attentive and friendly. Our order was placed within a few minutes of sitting down. My husband loves a good breakfast no matter what time of day. The sausage links were delicious. They had a mild flavor not too spicy. Glad we stopped and we'll be back again when we r in the area.

I went there with my family, and we possibly had the worst experience that I've ever had in my life. The food was not good at all because it was brought out almost an hour after we ordered it, so I'm sure it was sitting there for a while the waitress that we had was an older woman who did not seem to know exactly what she was doing so it ended up being where we got our orders in late we got our food late. Everything that could possibly go wrong with that situation. Did go wrong. And the problem that, we had the most with this is that when we spoke to the manager about it, the manager defended the Person stating that they couldn't help the fact that it was too long and that everything was fine and that we were the ones that were wrong. I'm sorry over an hour for your food and then getting it and having it being cold means that something is missing in the process. There's people that came in after us that sat down with other waitresses and got their food before us. We were a party of four and they were a party of eight and they got their food all of it before us and we're getting up to leave before we even got our food started. The place itself did not look bad it looked pretty clean. I was totally turned off by the service. It really made it so that I will never go back there again. If you're ever in the area, give him him a try maybe you'll have a different experience than I did. I hope you do. Thank you so much for listening.

I might sound like a hypocrite, since I keep coming back to this place, but that is mainly due to its decent breakfast, convenient location, and relatively fast/friendly service. However, for me this very large diner/mid-tier restaurant falls short by: 1). Lunch isn't as good as breakfast & is wildly Inconsistent; 2). If you ask to substitute ANYTHING, they annoyingly up-charge even when its way less costly than the standard accompaniment, e.g., Buffalo sauce instead of BBQ for the chicken fingers, or 50 cents for a thimble of hot sauce instead of sour cream and salsa on quesadilla. Menu is expansive.

Hated this diner 5 years ago. Went back begrudgingly a few months ago and things have certainly changed.
The service is amazing fast. The food now has flavor. You can be in and out in under a half hour if you want. The serving sizes and value are on point. All in all, a really good place to grab breakfast.
The only weird thing is that they use ketchup packs instead of a bottle on the table. Seems like a huge waste to have people go through 10 packs of ketchup for their omelet and has browns. Would certainly be easier for the customer with the bottle, but that's a super minor.Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Matt M.Watervliet, NY38193Jul 23, 2023
Despite many open booths, and a table in the corner, our server decided to sit us squarely at the one table situated in between the doors that separate the front and back dining rooms where foot traffic passes by. The food came out in about 5 minutes leaving one to wonder if it was pre- prepared. Toast was saturated with butter making it inedible, and was unevenly cooked, one piece not toasted and another piece burnt, omelette was kind of dry, but all in all, good enough grub for the price when you need to eat and run.

Never had a bad experience here with food & drink, hygiene, staff or atmosphere. It's a nice diner for a quick stop belly full deal.

Always great service and a wide variety of menu options. Very large and spacious space inside so you don't feel like you're cramped for space.

Great service for starters. The place is enormous so bring your baseball team. Had 2 eggs Benedict, home fries and sausage and biscuits. Sausage and gravy along with hollandaise sauce seemed to
be store bought. The biscuit was hockey puck hard. The staff and service were amazing!!Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Andrew G.Amsterdam, NY011Dec 18, 2022
I have been here a few times over the years, futile giving it another chance. There is ALWAYS A PROBLEM when I go there. I imagine other people feel the same way but, they just don't want to 'cause problems'.
I have had hockey puck burgers, disgusting chicken parm, utterly bland, tasteless breakfast. Which was my last attempt at letting them redeem themselves.
This morning I got a 5a omelette with American cheese, mushrooms, peppers and onions. Two sides of breakfast link sausage. I specifically stated I do not want home fries or any other potato. The omelet was just fried egg matter with no flavor at all. The sausage was bland somewhat breakfast sausage tasting pork matter. The home fries, I did not want, were mush. I called to tell them that, I cannot eat this. I made it through 1/3 of it and I just can't do it. It's horrible. And the hostess said no one else complains and she doesn't know what my problem is. They don't give money back I guess. Scumbags. Horrible food. I threw the breakfast out in the woods. The crows can eat it. Never go here. The positive reviews are from sycophants with no spine.Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0
