Zaks Mousehold Diner

So much fun, awesome atmosphere, and huge portions! The place itself is decked to the rafters with enamel signs, vintage posters, vinyl on the walls, and an old school coca-cola dispenser. The coloured lights really add to the diner vibe! Husband and I visited for the first time after booking on a whim and ordered soda floats (soda with ice-cream) and frickles (fried pickles) to start - and we had such a great time trying both. The batter used for the frickles is really tasty, better than a lot of batters we’ve tried. We definitely over-ordered for mains and ended up with a takeaway box. A burger cooked medium as big as my head, onion rings, and tater-tots smothered in blue cheese sauce (and they do mean smothered… I asked for the sauce on the side on our next visit as it was just that bit too much for me) Partner ordered a burger which came with an entire steak IN it… and also paid to double up on the patties! Attached a photo of his face when he saw the monster delivered to the table! And finally, mac and cheese on the side. Our wonderful server did warn us it was a lot of food, and we still went full-steam ahead - though we were appreciative when she later passed by and mentioned they have takeaway boxes… half the food came home with us! We visited again another day so my husband could try the Wednesday bottomless wings, and again had a great experience. I had a bratwurst hotdog with tater-tots and he had the wings, which he was grateful came with plenty of napkins and small wet-wipes to clean off his hands. Prices are competitive and not overly expensive at all. The service is really relaxed but engaging and kind. All three waitresses we have been served by had a laugh with us and were very knowledgable on the extensive menu.

I visited Zaks Mousehold Diner with my partner and a friend last week. The waitresses were really lovely and friendly, the food was lush (I had a pulled pork Sandwich for dinner and lime cheesecake for pudding), and the alcoholic milkshake was amazing! Very good value for money considering the portion sizes.
