Our hotel concierge recommended Scottys for breakfast and we visited twice. Place has a very traditional American feel and the service was excellent. Food was well cooked and there was lots of chose and if you wanted different combinations, not on the menu then they were happy to do it. Well worth a visit.

Late night eats here, food was good and service was excellent. Nice place to hangout after a late night on the town and still get a meal or piece of pie.

Went here after reading trip advisor reviews- lived up to reported expectations. Definitely the best breakfast we had on our trip so much so we went back 2 more times. French toast was marvellous , the staff were so friendly. Well worth a visit.

Found Scotty's on TripAdvisor and it did not disappoint. Hash and egss got the thumbs up as did the California omelet. Grilled blueberry muffin was a pass.

Fast service, good diner food. Always come here on my trips! Friendly staff and an expansive menu. Disco fries are the best and a must have with a beer!

Found this little diner online and thought I'd give it a bash after staying nearby. The reviews were good and I wasn't disappointed. Even early on a Sunday it was pretty busy but I was seated and served quickly with a cup of tea (or coffee) while I decided. I eventually went for the 3 Egg and Bacon Omelette which... More

Sadly, we had to have breakfast at 6am on Sunday - they were open, its an old dinner, and the cook was probably on his way out.... one waffle plate, ok. One short stack (2 plain pancakes) one of which was not cooked through. They replaced it but it took sooooooooo long to get my plate back and we even... More
