Eddie's Restaurant

It's not every day a food establishment lodges itself into your soul. It was a last hurrah of the summer- my four friends and I - a road trip to our friend's house in New York. After a weekend of waterfall swims, guitar playing around the fire, and late nights at the local beer garden, the reality of returning to our different colleges set in on our drive home. Melancholy seems to always follow joy, as surely as thunder follows lightning. Driving back we stumbled across Eddie's, humble and welcoming to five strangers. Stepping in felt like we entered an episode of Twin Peaks, the restaurant homey and filled with locals. We gorged ourselves on gravy slathered roast beef, onion rings, and pancakes, eventually managing to stuff in the most heavenly apple crumble pie you can imagine. Our waitress was one of the sweetest girls we had ever met (who's name I wish I could remember to acknowledge her), leading us to tip more than we ever had for any service worker in the past. Eddie's ghost looked upon us as we stumbled out of the restaurant, stomachs full of hearty food and hearts intoxicated with joy. Driving home with the sunset dripping orange over the trees it didn't seem so bad that we may not see one another for quite some time. We'd meet again soon enough, and our time at Eddie's would be with us forever. If you have a melancholy in need of healing, give Eddie's a try. Five stars.

Food is great! Love the home cook style. Waitress is very rude, we walked in at 7:20pm and they close at 8pm, the waitress refuse to acknowledge us, as we sat at a dirty table ( all the tables where dirty). It is one thing do they have a disclaimer sign saying they may close early, but it was normal hours. We sat there for 20 mins while everyone around us was served and eating. Very rude and unprofessional.
