First the History
The history is on the menu so instead of typing it why not post the picture:
As stated in the write up - our visit was an enjoyable trip to an establishment that has done a good job preserving the original diner car feel. Even with the additional seating in the rear it still feels like a historic diner and seems to operate that way. Another nice touch to the menu was the diner ten commandments:
Our Experience
Mo and I chose to sit at the counter for our breakfast and we were able to watch Jamie (obvious conclusion) manage the grill, the wait staff and overall activities in the diner. She spoke and things happened with a smile. Yes a small, tight knit operation with apparently happy customers and employees.
Ok I don't change much, I ordered a bran muffin, eggs over easy and a sausage patty. Mo ordered an Omelet, home fries and their corn beef hash. Both of our meals were exceptional, muffins were definitely made there and Mo had a choice of their homemade hash or otherwise. Yes she choose their homemade hash and it was probably one of the best ones we have had since starting our adventures.
Love the cast iron frying pan with constantly boiling water for those who want poached eggs - eggs benedict. I don't think it was a Lodge - maybe a Wagner or Griswold.
Commandment VII thou shalt sit at the counter.
Okay the biggest distraction - lose the Blue Moon Beer sign and put the Worcester diner clock (to the left) prominently in its place. Blue Moon is pretty much a foo foo beer and although the name is the same it doesn't belong in a fifties diner. Just an opinion.
Contrary to that criticism, photos like this in the bathroom belong in a late fifties - early sixties diner. Goodbye Norma Jean Though I never knew you at all You had the grace to hold yourself While those around you crawled.
And always the solo Diner Queen this month.
