I’ve dined at this establishment for over 30 years including its prior location in town. It’s certainly at its worst. They should probably close up. Inside has been dirty and unkept for months. This afternoon I placed a pick up order. Both the chicken on my salad and sandwich were cold and looked like they had been cooked the previous day. The chicken was not edible on either meal. My salad was drenched in dressing, literally floating lettuce. No pickle with my sandwich, no utensils given and my sandwich didn’t include the basic lettuce, tomato or onion. Overall I’d be ashamed if I owned this establishment. It’s not a good look after serving the community for so long. Do better or call it quits.

This establishment should be shut down. Food was not edible. I’m not sure if chicken was even chicken. If it was chicken it was old and wasn’t even cooked properly it was pink and hard. Which I’ve cooked chicken before and that’s a talent that less than 1% of humanity could accomplish. There is more to complain about. I will not say anymore other than because when you order a chicken sandwich and the only thing edible was the hard roll everyone should be ashamed who works there. The original owner is gone and when he left so shouldn’t the diner itself.

Very disappointing experience. The diner was unclean, my to-go order was wrong, and no silverware was provided. Worst of all, the chicken on both sandwiches was raw and completely inedible. I had to throw the entire meal away. Food safety should be a basic priority, and this missed the mark completely.

This was ladies’ choice for lunch after shopping at a local gift store. Not only were there lunch items to choose from but there were breakfast items as well. As we walked in there was also a sandwich board with delicious sounding specials for the day. Two of us opted for breakfast while the other lady chose a corned beef sandwich. The food was outstanding. The waitstaff was attentive and friendly. All menu items were reasonably priced. If they had offered speciality coffees we would have stayed for those. Instead we went further down Rte 9 for those.

On the way out, I opted for one of the specials to bring home for the hubby….the Thanksgiving Dinner Wrap. He thought it was a really great sandwich. It also came with one of the soups of the day, Cream of Broccoli.

We will definitely try this again for lunch.

Was on vacation on a vacation–you read that right–and my friends took me here. Not to be dramatic, but overall it was the best breakfast I’ve had in a restaurant. I had the ultimate French toast meal (??). The French toast was thick with a slight sear to it. Eggs, bacon, and sausage were immaculate. And the sausage wasn’t your run of the mill links, it was like a German sausage? Very delicious and juicy. OJ was very fresh without being too tart or too sweet. Oh and the prices?!! The PRICES?! Insanely affordable and the portions were big.

We were bicycling from Albany to Hudson in the rail trail and stopped here for lunch and the next day for breakfast.

We got the tuna salad plate. It was HUGE and tasty. The next day, on our return trip, we got omletes that were done very well.

We shared a fruit plate which was wonderful. It seemed like there was a half pint of fresh blueberries!

I down-graded the service because both times we had to flag down the waitress to get refills on our coffees and the coffees cooled down quickly in the thick mugs.

A great local restaurant in a cute little downtown area.

Excellent food most of the time. Prices are very fair. Recently though I’ve experienced over mayonaissed tuna and egg salad and over salted soups especially a chowder they had as a special.

Or breakfast was good but not much better than that. I think the service is what gives this place the lower mark. My wife had the corn egg hash breakfast and she liked it, but our waitress never came back to see if things were ok. My wife wanted jelly but ate dry toast instead. I had the vegetable omelet. I specifically asked if there was asparagus or broccoli in it and she said no. When it came, I showed my wife all the broccoli in it. Hmmmm. Also I could not tell which side of my toast was actually buttered. Halfway through my meal, my glass of water was empty and so was my coffee cup. I set them on the edge so she could see and refill. By the time she came back, we were both done. Mind you, they were not busy. She gave me a cup of coffee on the first time/last time to our table. She didn’t even ask about the water. Really bad service here. Not sure if it’s always like that. I look for small mom and pop diners and cafes. I was really disappointed in this one. Unfortunately it would be one I would probably not recommend by the service we had. You might have better luck. I would not give a great rating and suggest a place to have someone would go to this place from my review and be upset on my good rating. This one doesn’t get it, at least not from me.
Also,I know it’s just a painting, but I wouldn’t want a younger child to go into the men’s room and start asking questions about what they saw in the men’s room. See last photo. It seems too odd to display In a public, all ages bathroom.
Not recommended
