This is my "spot." Good location, good decor and good food. Im not familiar with the lunch options but the breakfast menu has every option you could want. Ensure you arrive earlier rather than later on Saturday mornings because it can get really busy. Plenty of seating if you are a large family, kid friendly. Overall one of my favorite brekky locations in gardner.

Our first visit ensures more. Lots of diner staples with most made from scratch. Excellent homemade corned beef hash, English muffins, and hollandaise sauce. Traditional diner comfort food in a bit of an industrial setting. The building was an elementary school previously. Excellent fresh food, friendly staff, and full of locals - the ultimate sign of it being good.

I’ll never order from here again. I don’t know what this was inside my veggie omelet. I’m DISGUSTED not knowing what I was actually eating. CLEARLY cross contamination. There was so much brown liquid on the bottom of the container that had my hash brown soaking in to the point they were mushy. The side of hash was so greasy it soaked through the container. No butter on the toast. I asked for hot sauce and never got it and they have the NERVE to charge a dollar for condiments and plastic to go utensils. NEVER WILL I ORDER AGAIN. HORRIBLE! I NEVER write reviews but this is absolutely appalling. $26.00 for SWILL!

Let's talk about this hidden gem. Pulling up this diner doesn't look like much. But the inside has a whole other atmosphere. With custom table tops, that I now much have in my home, to clean sleek booths. The staff was friendly and knowledgeable about their menu. Their menu offered several traditional breakfast options but also so much more. I was not super hunger on my first visit here, so I ordered a plain waffle with sasage links. Nothing special about them but they were hot and good. I will be back with my family for sure to try much more.

Cute, very Gardner flavor of diner. Some friends and I went and it was fantastic! Their pancakes are huge and their omelets were on point! I can't wait to come back and try their pulled pork mac and cheese and homemade cinnamon rolls. 😋 Edit;; the service is also fantastic, lots of love!!!!
