This is a good place to eat breakfast; however, it is more expensive than Cracker Barrel. I understand that Cracker Barrel is not the best ever, but just to give you reference on price. The food is about as good as Waffle House.
Also; the bacon had a odd chemical smell and taste. I love me some bacon, but couldn't bare it.
The biggest selling points to this place are its staff and location. It's a very easy location to get in and out if. Also; their staff are such very nice people with excellent customer service. I didn't have the heart to tell them that their bacon was bad.
Final verdict:
Food: 6/10
Price: 6/10
Location: 8/10
Customer service: 10/10

This is a staple of Bristol. This historic dinner offers a small yet vast menu of both breakfast and lunch dinner cooked fresh when you order. There amazing smiling staff greet you when you come in and help you understand any questions you may have about the menu. I ordered my favorite and as always it was amazing. However they are famous for there titan burger. I have had this burger multiple times and I love it. I have to day if you ever come to Bristol and skip this play you are very much missing out.

Claim to fame is breakfast anytime. Service was excellent. Owners very nice. Food is top notch. Mostly breakfast items, but they have burgers, fries as well. Hours are 7:30 to 1:30 6 days/week. Closed Sunday. Takeout and inside dining only. Prices are worth your money and you get fast service with quality ingredients.

Great food!! Family run. Clearly a favorite of the locals. Waffle with chocolate chips was crispy on the outside, fluffy inside. One pancake is plenty, as the are the size of the plate and perfectly fluffy. Sausage patties were tasty.

If you want a blueberry waffle…. Just a blue berry waffle and nothing else, that will cost you $8. EIGHT DOLLARS for a waffle with frozen blue berries sprinkled on top. That are still frozen LOL. It’s a good waffle but in no world is it an $8 waffle. Good service, nice atmosphere but the only affordable thing is the coffee. High prices, small portions, decent flavor. I’m glad I went but I won’t return.

This diner was so nice and quaint! The interior and exterior was all pop-culture themed and very unique. All of the staff was super friendly and our server Moriah was extremely attentive. The food was very yummy and I’d love to go back again if I come back to Bristol. Thanks!
