"I finally decided to bike down here early in the morning and man, it was worth it. Classic small down diner feel in Downtown Toledo. Big coffee mugs, big breakfast plates, and a top-tier staff. I would of loved to step back each decade and visit this place and people watch. Places like this are the keystone to the community"

- Nate G.

"If you like a diner with diner food and grill cooked your way along with the old time smell of cooking onions. I had a burger. It was good but it didn't have grilled onion on it. That was a little disappointing. Great diner atmosphere. Brought back old times"

- Sandra R.

"Got the bacon eggs and hash browns, bacon was a bit salty but okay. Eggs were really great and hash browns could use a bit more salt but were still good. Toast was good a little burnt. Found a hair in my butter so I'd recommend the workers wear hair nets. Swiss burger was delicious and worth getting. I enjoyed sitting at the bar with a great view of the workers cooking food."

- SolarSaber

"Cozy, local spot for brunch! Good variety of food on the menu too. Enjoyed an omelet w hashbrowns and toast, and hubby had a burger. Great amount of food for the price! Staff was very kind. Cute to see decorations for valentines day. Will be back!"
