Good, not great. Their pancakes are quite good but not the best and everything else was average. Service was a bit lacking too. more

Very much your greasy spoon but what a treat, from the water labeled proudly that it is tap water to the inspirational sign that is missing half its letters, to the very uncomfortable but (original?) traditional diner seating this place takes you back in time. I had the steak and eggs for supper and they were worth every bit I... more

Town Diner is, hands-down, our favorite breakfast spot. The entire staff is friendly and the food is always delicious. We frequent there a few times per month. (With a toddler, we try to get there early (@8am) before the weekend breakfast crowd. No/little wait that early in the day.) Try the ployes, they're delicious! more

The Deluxe Town Diner easily has the best pancakes within at least a 20 mile radius, based upon my exhaustive research, as I do love great pancakes. But, this is our third visit there and we are done. The service, all three times, was lacking. We kept hoping it would improve, but alas. Each time, we have been seated for... more

Any Diner that has Roasted Beets, Jalapeno Polenta Fries, and Sweet Potatoe Pecan Pancakes is aces in my book. Come hungry and in the mood for the unconventional. Decor runs the gambit from ecclectic to classic diner. Prices can get a little high but for food like this who cares. For a great app try the Falafel. more

I just wish they had more vegetarian options. Otherwise, they are delicious. But be warned, it may look like a regular diner but the food (and the prices) can run to the high end. more

Hungry, well have the Hungry Man Breakfast and you'll leave full and satisfied. It's the best bargain this side of the Mississippi. Sad, then drown your sorrows in the delicious Sour Cream Pancakes. They also have a great selection of monthly specials. Lines are out the door on Sat/Sun mornings, but you'll find us on Tues, Wed or Thurs nights. more
