Today was a make up visit and we shook it up a little. Mo and I woke up and we had lost power. Wanted coffee and we were both hungry so we decided to hit up another local diner for breakfast.
First A little history:
Broke from the Worcester diner cars this month and headed to the Edgemere diner in Shrewsbury Mass. The diner, with 18 counter seats and five booths, was built in the 1940s by Fodero Dining Car Co. in New Jersey. This type of diner, common in New York, New Jersey and Pennsylvania, is rarely seen in the Bay State. The diners are known for their stainless steel exteriors and art-deco appearance.
Our Experience:
Much to Maureen's delight (Jill would have liked also) you are waited on by a crew of fine gentlemen who were friendly, efficient and funny. Menu had ample choices and there were additional specials to choose from.
Maureen had an omelet with hash and I had eggs over easy, sausage links, homefries and a grilled corn muffin and of course coffee. Coffee, omelet, hash, eggs and corn muffin were very good. Sausage links and home fires were just okay. Which means not that good.
Food was decent and the diner atmosphere was right on. A key to any good diner is not having a single matching coffee cup and lots of old shit behind counter.
Good breakfast - definitely worth additional stops. Like always here is the solo diner queen for this visit. With no power going out prep time was limited.
