Reviews
Really neat diner… lots of room
Lunch specials, reasonable prices , good service , clean restrooms
Just had coffee and homemade pie
Definitely will be back for a lunch on next trip from the lake
Highly recommend for something different AAA
MENU: Breakfast seems to be the happening thing here, especially brunch on Sundays. They have your typical breakfast fare in the morning, and diner style burgers, fried chicken, and whatnot during the day.
FOOD QUALITY: Good, but very basic. I believe most of the items are made up of factory ingredients thrown together. For example I went here for brunch with a friend recently and got the barbacoa bowl – the spuds were the frozen par-fried kind, the cheese sauce was out of a can, etc. I also had the nutella waffle, which was a frozen waffle (kinda soggy, rather than crispy) with literally a squeeze of nutella and a sliced banana. Their stuff is basic to the point that you could make most of the menu at home in less time than it takes to drive up there and wait for your order.
MENU FAVORITES: I’ve only been here twice, once for a burger (which was pretty good – I’d say a contender for the best restaurant burger in Kirksville), and once for brunch, so there’s a lot of things I haven’t tried. The stuff I did have was satisfying, and the price is fair.
MENU FAILS: N/A.
FRONT OF HOUSE SERVICE: Staff is friendly and attentive.
KITCHEN SERVICE: The food is basic, but done well. Your scrambled eggs will be cooked through but still moist. Your pancakes will be nicely browned and fluffy.
COMPETITION: The closest comparison for breakfast stuff would be Rosie’s Northtown Cafe, and Diner 54 is definitely better. For burgers and fried chicken, the closest comparison would be Maxwell’s, and I’d say they’re about the same, quality-wise.
ATMOSPHERE: The last time I went was for brunch on a Sunday and the place was PACKED! (Meaning there was a short wait, the restaurant was noisy, etc.) Otherwise, clean, comfortable, and cheery.
Conveniently located right across from the Super 8—perfect for anyone visiting Truman State or staying nearby.
The staff was super friendly, and the service was quick. I ordered the two eggs over medium with hash browns and bacon, plus a half order of biscuits and gravy.
The eggs were cooked perfectly, the hash browns were crispy, and the biscuits and gravy were pretty good too. The bacon was a little chewy, but still tasty.
The single pancake that came with the meal was excellent—fluffy and flavorful.
Hot coffee kept coming, and the prices were very reasonable.
Definitely a solid breakfast choice, and I’d happily come back again. ☕
We will never order or eat here again.
Very family ordinated (Cartoons were playing) we were seated as soon as we walked in the door they gave us plenty of time to order my husband got the all you can eat Walleye, he said it was really good and you couldn’t even tell it was fish! I got a taco salad (recommended by a lady who was coming outside as we were going inside) and our kids had some fries that were really good!
Three diffrent people asked how the food was and how we were doing I think one might have been an owner or manager (he looked very nice)
Over all the service was nice the place was very neat and tidy along with a lot of space. We will return soon!
We started off with the Appetizer sampler. When it came out it was piping hot and delicious. It was standard American fare consisting of mozzarella sticks, onion rings, chicken strips, and potato skins.
For the main course I ordered the chicken quesadilla it was really warm, however could have used more seasoning. I placed salt seperately on it and it was still good. The fries were really crispy as well.
The strawberry crepes were good, but were very plain. It’s something you can get just about anywhere, maybe if it was stuffed with something it would have stood out a little more.
Overall the food as tasteful, well-prepared, it could have used a little bit more seasoning at times, however the fact that nearly everything was homemade made it taste better. As for the service of the waitresses was more than accommodating and really made you feel at home. Connie was a fantastic waitress and really went above and beyond. Overall i would rate this restaurant 4 stars
