The outside isn't much to look at. Then I went in. The inside isn't much to look at either. I started reading the signs and donations contributions and realized it's a truly authentic classic place that makes you feel so welcome. I thought to myself I wouldn't change a thing. Its like I could tell the owner has a great heart. The food portions are generous. I shouldn't have 4 containers for 1 10 dollar meal but I do. I love how much I got. It's also delicious. I love this place.

Best omelette/breakfast I’ve never had, I go to a lot of diners stopped in 11/17/19 after Penn State football weekend. Highlight of my Sunday drive home. Western with cheddar cheese and Hashbrowns with a side of bacon.

Cozy quiet home style diner. Simple menu with lots of options. Portion sizes and price are great. Has an old time type of feel and you can usually snatch up some local bakery desserts and some other local stuff. Waitresses are friendly and attentive.Just a really comfortable atmosphere like home. Clean and lots of decor to make you smile, which you can purchase if you like.

Had lunch on 07/14/2019. DH got the Sunday "special" - stuffed chicken, mashed potatoes w/gravy, lima beans, salad, roll and cranberry jell. He said the chicken was dry and really needed the cranberry. Also said the stuffing was gelatinous. I got crab cakes, sweet potato fries, baked corn, coleslaw and a roll. Came with tartar sauce; not a fan and the cakes were very good, as is. The coleslaw was tasty and the fries were wonderful.(DH shared his cranberry sauce, which was awesome!) The rolls were soft and served with butter that was spreadable. Half of my food went in a to-go box. We also got a slice of coconut cream and blackberry pie. DH said the coconut was really good. (He did not share.) With 2 large teas, our bill was a little over $38. The place is ancient and old-fashioned. There's a path worn into the tiles in front of the kitchen. It's like Sunday dinner at Grandma's.Four stars because of the chicken.

Independently-run restaurant offering quality food at at a reasonable price, right off I-80! Ask for the breakfast menu if they only give you the lunch/dinner menu, as they serve breakfast all day and the breakfast menu is where they shine.

Good food with friendly service. Large portions at medium prices. Good comfort food. Don't expect vegan or non gluten, except maybe one option. This is people friendly food.

Our food choices were good to excellent and reasonably priced. We arrived shortly after a super rush and service was probably shower than normal. Our waitress was very helpful with menu choices. We were traveling but if we are back in this area in the future we would return. A nice, homey place with good food and excellent service.

We pre-ordered a banana cream pie on Thursday for my father's birthday, my mother went to pick it up today, Saturday and she waited 25 minutes for it to be brought out, so I assume they forgot to make it. Which would've been no big deal if they told us. We got the pie home and it's completely wrong. It looks like they threw filling and intosone bananas into a crust and sent it out. There's no whipped topping which we always received when ordering previously. The filling is clumpy and gross. Completely disappointed because we've always received great pies from here. Truly a disappointment.UPDATE: They offered to remake our pie and then only offered a refund when they saw our one star review. Very poor customer service :(

Somewhat disappointed. We stopped here five years ago at random. Enjoyed the food and the atmosphere. We've stopped several times since and enjoyed again. Not this time. Food was average. Service OK. Out of dinner rolls at 5:30? Something or someone is slacking off, or maybe it was just an off Thursday. We'll try again.

We ate lunch here and every thing was good. The price was great for the meal we got. The whole meal was the price you would pay for just the sandwich somewhere else. We are planning on eating here when in the area. The service was great too.

Nice little place. Portions were extremely large. It was so loud in there though I had to repeat my order a few times to the waitress. The breakfast was great but the lunch was not so good. The Gravy for the open faced roast beef tasted too much like fat with no real flavor to compensate. The #1 Bone in Ham slice breakfast was large and full of flavor. I will have to try them again to really be able to get a real feel for the place and consistency.

Place is dirty, it looks like they never clean. Food was horrible! It was tasteless and reminded me of the horrible food my highschool had. I would not reccomend this place at all. McDonald's would have been a better choice and I don't even eat fast food.

My family stumbled upon this restaurant years ago - literally by accident and out of necessity. My parents loved the liver & onions ... fortunately for us kids, they have other tasty options on the menu. Quality of food and service keeps us coming back on purpose every time we're driving through.

This restaurant was dirty, the fish was over done, burnt. The rest was nothing special. The tables were back to back ..none of the staff wore masks. They were not even wiping tables off in between customers. The bathrooms were filthy. And the cakes in the freezer have been in there a very long time. They were frost burnt. The whole place gave off small dirty hole in the wall vibe. Never again!

Very nice and locally owned eatery right off of interstate 80. The breakfasts were amazing and plentiful portions as well. They also have homemade ice cream and some very interesting flavors! Definitely worth a stop and a restaurant to break the monotony of fast food locations at any exits of the highway.
