On vacation from the Netherlands we rolled in on our way out over the Mohawk trail and up north to Bellington Vermont.
We found the service friendly and efficient, the food great diner food and the atmosphere pleasant and neighborly.
Any concerns about hygiene are over exagerated..

Our kind of place. Loved the prime rib hash, my wife loved the French toast. We’d come back! Across the street from the bike trail if you’re bringing your bike.

What a great breakfast! This is a terrific little diner. The staff are very real and friendly. The food is tasty and just the right amount. Some places try to overwhelm you with food to somehow make it better. Not this place. I got plenty of food; it was the right amount that I could eat it all ( happily ), feel pleasantly full, and not feel like I wasted food.
We’re coming back here again soon and recommending it to friends!

I went in here recently for breakfast and I have to say it was an amazing experience. Service was fast and quick. The waitress was very friendly and funny. The cook Ramon did an awesome job with my omelette. I ordered the hashlette and it looked and tasted delicious. There was a good vibe in there. I have to say the cook and waitress make you feel like you’re part of the Shady Glen family. I would definitely recommend checking this place out if you’re looking for a hidden gem with a yummy breakfast. Next time, I think I might try the breakfast burrito. Highly recommend.

I knew as soon as I walked in this would be a gem. The coffee was great and bottomless, the omelets HUGE and pancakes perfectly golden brown with fat blueberries. It was just the chef and hostess today the banter was lovely and playful, and was a very warm inviting environment. It was too quiet for how good it was on a Sunday so I highly recommend stopping in if you’ve never been. This is going to be our new spot, even 40 mins away. I can’t wait to stop in again, you guys were amazing.

Perfect small town New England diner vibe. Wait staff and cook are super friendly and attentive. Great spot for a tasty breakfast, hot cup of coffee and to find out what’s going on around town. Sat by myself at the counter and read my book for a while and then chatted with the cook while he was making my food. Even though it was only my second time, I felt like a regular.

I NEVER leave reviews on places but this one is a must. I got up wanting to grab some breakfast with my partner and after attempting 3 times to find some where to go, we settled on this place and it was an utter mistake.
The atmosphere was calm but everything looked grungy and dirty. Windows hadn’t been wiped down or cleaned in a while, I could tell.
The coffee is absolutely awful. Not even mediocre at best. I had 2 over medium eggs, corned beef hash, “home fries” (weren’t even half way cooked, drier than a nuns hooha, and just tasted gross like they were old and outdated), and white toast. The eggs were cooked perfectly. The hash was alright. The toast.. well… how do you really screw up toast?
My partners breakfast burrito looked like dog food and he couldn’t even finish half of it because he said it wasn’t good.
The waitresses were nice.
But now on to the cook. This gentleman was of large stature, bald, Caucasian, and not hygenic at all. He did not wear gloves which would be fine if he washed his bear paws before touching food. I watched a waitress bring a ticket over to him after he had been leaning on the counter, playing on his phone, and touched and scratched his face numerous times. He grabbed the ticket and immediately started raw dogging all of the food without washing his hands or putting gloves on. I had just finished what I could eat of my food and saw all of this and immediately got nauseous.
We will NEVER be going back.
And for wandering/wondering minds… I have been a cook myself for almost 18 years and I would NEVER let this stand. I would NEVER serve people this food. And I would NEVER let the lack of hygiene in this place fly.
I’m incredibly disappointed and praying we don’t get food poisoning. Lastly, the prices are definitely not worth it. Please don’t eat here. Save yourself from this disgusting environment.

This was an excellent experience. The interior is quite homey. The staff were very friendly and professional. The food was delicious. There is plenty of parking around the building and in the area. I was able to enjoy the hashlette. I am looking forward to going back again soon!
