What customers say?

“ The first impression when you walk inside if you're of an age to remember, the show is Mel's diner or Wings. Everything is homemade from the biscuits to the bread to the pies. They even have cinnamon rolls that are homemade. It reminds me of those mom and pop diners five and diners. I didn't try the muffins but the banana bread was wonderful and the cinnamon rolls were great. So we're definitely going back to try the homemade pies and the homemade muffins and brunch was amazing. You definitely get your money's worth because even though I ordered a two egg breakfast I know I got more than two eggs as you can see from my plate that I took a picture of. My server was very nice and personable just like they were 20 years ago. Everybody talks to you. It's wonderful. It's like stepping back in time. This is now my favorite place to have breakfast or lunch. I love it. ”

“ This is a great breakfast spot with a friendly neighborhood charm. My daughter couldn't wait to bring me here. The food is very good and the portions are generous. I had the chicken fried chicken with scrambled eggs and added a blueberry pancake. We also ordered bacon, cheesy eggs, and the biscuit and gravy. Everything was good and the service was great. They kept my cup filled with hot coffee literally from the moment we sat down. (I thought the coffee was free, for that reason, but it's actually $3 a cup.) I didn't sample any of the pies, but they boast that they have the world's best pies. ”
