Such a wonderful bright place to dine with family and friends. It’s literally a diner/restaurant you see in the movies.
The food was fresh, the staff attentive and cheerful. The whole vibe is so warm and cosy.

Longstanding local institution which has amazing icecream (try the belgian waffle sundae), homely vibes and addictive food (ask for the kids menu fries and mozzarella sticks – it’s enough for 2 adults)
The waffle cone, if improved would make this place the go to icecream destination.

It was a dessert stop. Everything was fresh and creamy. Can’t beat AC Petersons icecream. And the apple pie was delicious.

My first time here in probably 35 years, and it was still pretty dang good! Growing up this spot was right around the corner from my house, and I have lots of fond memories of coming here with my grandmother and getting dinner and ice cream.
Walking back in and it all came right back to me, still a nice family vibe in this location and staff was so friendly. My tuna salad sandwich was quite good.
If you want a nice traditional spot to get a decent dinner and some excellent ice cream, please give this place a visit.

Nice kind of 40s, to 50s diner atmosphere. Amazing burgers and really nice crisp French fries! Son loved the chicken tenders with spicy fries. For dessert, the waffle cone my son got was absolutely massive, not that he was complaining, lol. I got an amazing cookie Sunday with warm hot fudge, a crunchy cookie on the inside, and a warm amazing cookie on the inside was absolutely divine and could not finish it.
Note without dessert price per person would be around 15 -20 dollars estimated.

I just got back from out of town and enjoyed a wonderful breakfast at another restaurant and wanted a place to match the energy. This didn’t. The food was your very simple and typical diner food. Nothing out of the ordinary. The last photo was what I hoped for. The others are what we got. But if I managed my expectations as I should have, it was just fine. The food was fresh and edible. We asked for eggs hard and they were still a little wet. It tasted fine, it just lacked presentation. I love aesthetics. The waitress was nice and the hostess was funny. The premise was clean. It had plenty indoor and outdoor seating and free parking. As for the milkshake it was more milk than shake and toppings and whip cream are additional cost. Is it even a milkshake if that’s not included? Breakfast was cheap, milkshakes cost the same as a meal.

I haven’t been here since I was a kid but it definitely didn’t disappoint. We went for breakfast and we each had an omelette, one veggie and one California and they were both amazing. They came with a bread side and potato side but with one we substituted the potatoes for hash. The portions on everything were large and prices were good for the meals. There are other things on the menu I wanted to try so I will definitely go back. The staff was phenomenal and friendly, this is definitely a go to place for breakfast from now on when we are in the area.

We tried this restaurant for the first time this week and we were not disappointed with food or service. I arrived earlier than my breakfast companion, but I was invited to pick a booth and the server kept me supplied with non stop coffee until he arrived. The breakfast portions were huge and we were so full that we were not even hungry when dinner time rolled around. The omelettes are seriously delicious and are stuffed to the max with very fresh ingredients. You can customize them to your liking-it might be a bit pricey this way but at least you get exactly what you want. I can’t wait to go back for some ice cream. Plenty of seating and parking. No frills decor but certainly pleasant enough.

Maaaan!!! Today I had the grilled chicken Caesar spinach wrap and show string fries and it was so good!
Looking around I can’t help but notice how clean and well kept the restaurant is. It’s a well maintained classic diner experience. One of the February specials was enjoyed by my friend and we both enjoyed a free petite sundae.
The lady that served us was an absolute sweetheart, I will definitely be coming back.

Have been eating at AC Petersen’s my whole life. When it was in Bloomfield, Simsbury, and since those closed – West Hartford.
The food hasn’t changed much over the years and the ice cream is still my favorite.
The service however, has always been hit or miss. There are a couple older ladies that work here that are great. The younger crowd mostly stands around and chit chats with eachother. Service is slow. They never give you napkins or a beverage refill without having to ask. They take your order, drop your food in your face, and then go stand in the kitchen until you stare them down for 10 minutes as they awkwardly glance at you like they are afraid to come by. Not all, but several. Im sure as an employer, you know your strong employees. Please praise them for doing what they are paid to do. But the others should be spoken with. I would not tolerate the face of my business blatantly ignoring customers throughout their service.
