Customer Reviews
We always look for diners, where the locals go. I ordered the special appetizer, fried green tomatoes, they were really good! I had the grilled chicken sandwich which was pretty basic, but very good. I added tots, nothing special. Great atmosphere. The wait staff were really nice. That's always a plus.
Cozy diner with lots of locals in Spruce Pine. Excellent mushroom swiss burger and very good Carolina BBQ sandwich. Friendly staff, moderate prices, good food - everything you want in a diner.
If I could put less than one star I would. My fiance and I ordered 1 mountain dew, 1 sweet tea, a ham and cheese omelet, and western omelet, only the eggs not the whole meal. They charged us $18.19 and did not offer a veteran discount. The eggs were small and cold. When we called to ask why the price was so high, and what would have been the difference if we had gotten the meal. Their reply was, you would have paid a dollar more a piece and you would have gotten toast. They offered nothing else to redeem themselves and went about their day. Even with toast this meal was not worth a penny of what we spent on it. We grew up in this town eating here often over the years with elder family members and had fond memories of how great a place it WAS. We are so disappointed that this is the second
Not a true 50's diner feel, that said the burgers etc are more than acceptable for an inexpensive lunch. Service is fast and friendly, food is prepared to order and has a decent variety. Take a break from work, stop while driving the parkway, or selecting a fresh Christmas tree. Fast easy and decently fun addition to shopping in the unique downtown area.
This is literally the diamond in the rough of diners, great staff they are very friendly and some of the best pancakes in the world definitely worth the drive for me.
