I mean it’s not bad. But definitely not good.

I got here around 12:30 on a Friday with the intent to be here earlier for breakfast, but that didn’t happen.
It was not busy at all. There were maybe 4 to 5 tables occupied outside.
And one inside

We were greeted we had to sign in on a piece of paper (kinda outdated but ok)
We were able to sit outside where we wanted that was nice. We only had to wait about five minutes to be seated.

The tables were wiped down, but they were not cleaned. I use wipes that I had on hand.

I did order half a French toast (it came with two slices of diagonal cut toast, a scoop of butter and syrup. Hot nice fine. Not amazing or anything, but it’s food.

I also ordered a club sandwich with french fries a Coke and ranch.

The Coke came out tasting like the syrup was being stingy. I almost was gonna ask for a different drink, but it could’ve just been the ice diluting it if it did come from a can.

The club looked to be a good portion, but the fries were immediately cold.
I asked for fresh fries and apologize for even having to ask she said that’s fine but that they needed to take my entire plate?
She came out less than a minute with “fresh” fries and the missing ranch
The fries were warmer than the fries. I just had but they were not fresh….

We were able to see airplanes going in and out. Nothing crazy but good enough to eat and look out.

I will make a note that the older women servers here seem… idk. Lack of pep. Not that they did anything bad, but the overall vibe just gives a sad diner vibe and that contributes to it as well.

Thankfully, there are benches at least seven that you can come and not feel pressured to have to eat at the diner to see the airplanes.

I wouldnt mind returning again, but probably with my own picnic or something.
I wouldn’t go to the diner

I work across the street and been wanting to visit for some time now. Wish I would have sooner. Nice place to grab a bite and watch the planes take off and land. The servers were very friendly but seemed a bit unorganized. It was busy so I’ll give them that. The amount of food for the price is worth the visit.

Open since 1983 this little diner attached to Brackett Field Airport has some of the best views of any diner that I’ve ever been to. I will say that the food is not very memorable, but the location and experience was. Inside is like stepping into a time capsule. You walk by telephone booths and newspaper stands to get into the restaurant which also looks like it is preserved in the early 1990s. It is attached to a giant free parking lot so parking is very easy and plentiful. Our server was also very nice and everything that we ordered came out pretty fast.

We were lucky enough to get a table outside right by the air field and watched many planes take off and land, which was the highlight of our meal. The food itself was so so, but definitely not bad. We started off with a Cinnamon Roll, which was pretty small and not very fluffy but still had some nice flavors. For our breakfast, we chose the Kitchen Sink Omelette, which was good although it wasn’t blended. The omelette was just folded over the meat so every time you would cut into it everything would spill out. Also, there wasn’t much seasoning or flavors. We also ordered the French Toast, which was a bit better and tasted as expected. I really wanted to like the food more because I really like the scenery, but I feel that this place is worth visiting more for the views than the food.

Stopped in on Thursday morning after my doctors appointment. Wanted to get breakfast and this was a short easy drive from my doctors office. Located at the airport the restaurant provides a great opportunity to see general aviation and enjoy yourself while you’re having breakfast or lunch. The restaurant offers seating outside or inside ( prefer outdoor) to watch the flights and outdoors. I had there (2) eggs with bacon and hash browns with white toast. The food arrived quickly and the service was excellent. ✈️ definitely would come back again.

Good airport food. Hard to find a good biscuit and gravy and they do an adequate job. Fun to watch airport traffic while having a bite, with almost every seat having a runway view. Patio dining is preferred for nice days and runway view

This restaurant located next to a small airport really is awesome. First off the Best place to sit is on the patio even though there’s sitting indoors available. By sitting outside especially this time of the year November it’s cool with a Beautiful scenic view of the mountains in a distance plus seeing small prop planes land and take off every few minutes. I had the French Toast with 2 eggs and ham. Food is served Hot n delicious. It’s really Great tasting Home cooking. The only small problem with Norm’s this day was the outside server who when asked for cream by my friend for her coffee never got it so she got some from another table herself. I know it is not a big thing but, it was a low point in the meal. Overall everything was top notch and I will be back.

One of the best breakfasts that I have ever had. I had a chicken fried steak with biscuits and gravy. Everything was cooked to perfection. Excellent portions for the price. Throw in the planes coming and going and this is an excellent place to eat

Worst experience I’ve eved had at a restaurant. We took the kids here thinking it would be fun to see the planes take off. We got seated right away. Four tables after us were seated, every single one of those tables got their drinks ordered and food before our drink order was ever taken. At this point kids are getting restless. And it was clear they’re not fans of children. Our kids got up and ran down the stairs to the grass area that gives you a better view of planes taking off. The owner screamed at them for running, to the point that I had to jump in to protect them from her. I told her she needs to address concerns to the parents and not talk or curse at children the way she did.
Food finally came, it was ok. Not terrible but not anything special. When it was time to leave my friend wanted to talk to the owner and the owner said she had nothing to say to her and walked away. When I tried to point out that they had us waiting for over an hour and naturally any child would get restless she acknowledged the bad service but then proceeded to get the entire restaurant involved by yelling to EVERY costumer ‘who here saw these children run?’ We told her it wasn’t necessary to include other guests and that was inappropriate. I told her this was my first time visiting as well as my last. She said she didn’t care and she can’t please everybody.

The environment was fun, the costumer service was awful.. and the owner was as blatantly rude.. very clearly does not like children. Unless you want your child verbally abused, I highly recommend finding another restaurant.

Service is great and the food is amazing, greasy spoon vibe plus you can watch planes takeoff and land while you eat. I strongly recommend you order the pancakes, never in my life have I had a better pancake than I have had here. I can’t stop talking about them and I will go back just for the pancakes!

I’d been wanting to take my daughter here for some time after going to Maniac Mike’s in Upland earlier this year, which was such a cool experience. This place is similar, just not as good. We asked to be seated outside so we would see the airplanes, and admittedly we were a total group of nine, but the wait took so long. It was over an hour before we were seated, but all good. We asked to sit outside so that’s on us. The issue is there were barely any airplanes to watch which is kind of the point of the restaurant.

The inside of the restaurant looked much cleaner than the outside. The napkins at our table were wet, the server brought out the wrong juice for the kids initially and then dropped sausage on the way to our table. These aren’t huge issues and they were quickly resolved but it doesn’t leave a great first impression.

I ordered the Sink Burrito which was good and everyone else enjoyed their food so for that, I’ll say 3 stars, but I don’t think there’s any reason to come back.
