⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Jenny’s Diner is awesome! The homemade soup was amazing and the pancakes were fluffy with great flavor. Honestly, everything we had was delicious! Our waitress was fantastic, the staff was super friendly, and the restrooms were clean. Definitely coming back!

Very popular place. Got quite busy during our visit, most tables were filled. We found our waitress to be very friendly very quick, very efficient; she was great. (Cassie) Menu was large, prices were good, we were looking forward to our meal. Food came out quickly. Unfortunately, I did not realize that my top sirloin would come out covered in cracked pepper as I have a pepper allergy. I have been told it's common for restaurants to garnish steak with cracked pepper but I never experienced it myself so I didn't think to ask not to have that. I tried to wipe it off. What I couldn't fix was that approximately half the steak was completely inedible. It was cooked the way I had asked, and it looked beautiful, but when you tried to cut it there was a gigantic vein of gristle running through

I took my y son out for soup on a cold day. He works on the Rock Creek Solar project and I work on it too along with Clinton County Wind. To he thing that stand out for me is, even their side dishes are memorable. The French fries served with his club sandwich were crisp, seasoned to perfection and not overly greasy. Their soups are amazing too. I remember trying their ham and bean soup as a side to an amazing, kale-based salad. It was so good, I ordered a bowl. This time out with my son, I ordered a bowl of their chicken noodles soup. It was on par with their ham and bean soup. The server was very helpful too.

My taco salad was delicious. The salsa on the side had enough heat to be called a salsa and there was more than enough to fill me up. Service was excellent despite it being quite busy. Very comfortable environment. A bike rack would have been appreciated, since I couldn't resist biking on such an unseasonal gorgeous day.

The place is clean and people are friendly but the food was disgusting. Raw hasbrowns and taste like the came out of the grease trap. Biscuits were burnt and undercooked at the same time. My bacon was so burnt to the point it was inedible. However, my dog loved it all.
