Very country feeling when you drive up to the place. The diner is clean and basic and has a very unique vibe. Wasn’t expecting much.
The menus aren’t updated to new prices but still very cheap compared to normal places. No wifi and no cell service in there. But the staff is so friendly.
Now. The food!
Got a double bacon cheeseburger and it was fresh cooked thick 1/3 burger patty’s stacked with fresh veggies. The burger was huge. Simple and delicious!!!
This is a GEM
When we got in, we noticed that every unoccupied table have the previous customers dishes still on the table. So we waited for about 5 minutes at the register waiting for someone to lead the way. The waitress came and cleaned off a table for us and took our drink order. Drinks came quickly. Took our food order and we waited… and waited…and waited. We waited for 35 minutes for our food to arrive, and we were actually about to leave at that point the waitress brought our food.
The food was fine, nothing great. It wasn’t terrible either, like food if you made in your own kitchen, you’d say “okay this is fine”. At no point did the waitress refill our drinks or even ask if we needed anything. We finished the food that we ate, and waited for the ticket that never came, we truly were forgotten. I went up to the front desk to pay as my wife loaded the kids in the car. Our waitress also rung us up after another 5 or so minute wait. She got about halfway done ringing us up then decided to go run someone their food and didn’t come back. Another woman in the back pointed out that I was “just standing there” so the waitress finished the ring up. It was so awkward bit also felt like this was normal for them.
It seems almost as though due to the lack of options, people have just accepted the place for what it is. It did feel like it was a hangout spot for the older guys and I’m sure they’re loyal customers, but I was not happy at all with the experience.
I also used the restroom where I lost a flip flop due to the sticky floors. I’m glad I got the food before I saw the bathroom, because I probably would’ve just packed up and left at that point.
The place was run down, chairs were full of tears and were old and wore out. The place was sort of dirty but everyone else seemed to be okay with it. I’ve never ate there before and have never stopped in Newport to eat, so maybe this is just what the town folk like.
I recommend eating in Batesville instead of coming here.
