What more could anyone want than a cozy diner that only has a few tables, windows that let you watch the snowflakes, barstools that look like they re straight out of the 40s, great food and friendly waitstaff. And for three dollars, you can buy your own coffee mug that is a genuine throwback to the 40s. My son really loved the Eminem pancakes, my daughter loved her oatmeal, and I fully enjoyed my omelette. World class breakfast.
Homemade hash was delicious. Great service (very attentive). Order was done to perfection. Coffee is flavorful.
Best breakfast in town. Greasy delicious griddled breakfast foods. This is a Sunday must!
Amazing breakfast and lunch options, totally original
Best breakfast anywhere. Great old school diner run by great people. The hash is the best I've ever had. You can't go wrong with anything here. Lunch is excellent too.
Best homemade corned beef hash on the planet! Eggs over easy with well done hash browns, toast coffee and juice and you're all set!
Great service reasonably priced and most importantly YUMMY food!!
Very clean and quaint diner. The wait staff are very friendly, responsive and helpful. The food was amazing! Keep in mind...CASH ONLY!
Slinging the best hash in the state! A true gem of Southbury!
Small busy place so you may have to wait for a seat but it's worth it.
Every time I come here it never ceases to amaze me, hands down best place, Chip's does NOT COMPARE,
Breakfast cooked exactly to my specifications! Delicious and friendly service!
I come every time I'm in the area for the great homemade corned beef hash.
Great local eatery. Breakfast and lunch. Straight up best of the diner comfort foods.
I stopped here on reccomendations from Google Maps and was not dissapointed. This is a real dinner, not trying to distract you with chrome. Nothing fancy from appeance, but an amazing breakfast. Their homemade hash is to die for.
Food was very good! Service was very good!Decor could use some updating.
Quintessential. The staff is happy and the food is great. Everything you expect from a diner and some cool specials too. I can't imagine a way to improve it!
Great homefries, super hash. Tight parking. Very popular.
Proper breakfast joint. Fair prices and good food made the right way. Won t be disappointed, go.
As traditional of a diner as you can get. Food is great. Parking can be difficult, but you can park across the street in the Senior Center and forgo the frustration of backing out.
This place is small and doesn't look like much but the food is great. The few times I've been here I've always had to wait for a spot which should tell you something. Big portions and tasty and enough to get through the day on just one meal if you had to.
Cozy place with a huge menu. Something for everyone
Great traditional diner. No frills, just good food and good service at a good price.
The quintessential hole in the wall breakfast and lunch joint. Cash only. Good price. Great value. (You're gonna go off your diet, but what a way to go!)
Go there alot food is always good. Service is friendly Pete and Stephanie do a great job.Food puts Chips 2nd .With selections and price and a cozy place you wont be disappointed
The food here is incredible but the service could use some work. We were charged for eggs we never received and when it was brought to the attention of the server she crossed the item off the bill but didn't change the total. Also, no refills on drinks.
This restaurant is my favorite. I eat in a lot of restaurants but to this place I keep coming back again and again. The team is very chummy and the cuisine they cook is so appetizing. I am always happy to have a decent meal here. I recommend this place with pleasure.
Clean and consistently good quality food. Always friendly service!
I love this place. The way a diner should be. If you love hash, try the Irish Bendict. With the homemade hash, it was Great.
Food was just okay, not bad but nothing special. Be aware tho,they only accept cash and no where is that posted. You find out when you go to pay.
Cash only. There was a piece of wood in my $4 breakfast sandwich. Didn't have cash and they made me leave collateral to guarantee that I would return with cash after going to the atm down the road. Rather than giving it to me on the house because there was a piece of WOOD in it. Not many options in this sleepy town for a weekday breakfast when passing through. Next time I'll go to McDonalds.
Sante Fe chicken omelette with avocado, bacon, peppers and onions.
went last weekend with my husband. the tiniest, cutest place. it reminded me of a diner you'd see in a Hallmark movie but the food, it was amazing. the hash was the best hash I've ever had, and I've had hash all over the country! seriously good
These are the hometown places I love to go to. Got cinnamon roll french toast. Wow. So amazing if you like something sweet.
If you like classic small diners. This is the place to go in ct. The best corned beef hash around and great coffee too.
Good food, but they only take cash. Had to go on a surprise adventure to find an atm. It would be an awesome restaurant otherwise.
They have an open-to-view kitchen, do you see all the food being cooked right in front of you, which I thought was pretty cool.
Awesome place! Great food! Nice staff! Fast service! I ve been coming here for years. They have the best corn beef hash and banana pancakes! Just a warning this is comfort food at its best. If you don t like flavor(butter) don t go. Seating is limited so I would not suggest it for a party of more then four.
A REAL diner! True home fries and old-fashioned hash. Super staff
It is cash only but oh man is it good. Best diner food I've ever had.
Pete makes the best home fries and the best corned beef. I have never had a bad meal here. Miles above and beyond Chip's. His pancakes are way better than Chips!
Seriously you won't be disappointed here.
Great breakfast! Fabulous corned beef hash & delicious pancakes
People love this place but I don't know why. The menu is super boring and limited, the food is just ok, and they are only open for breakfast and early lunch. The limited seating is tight and uncomfortable. But the staff is great and the food is consistent. I've noticed it's mostly men eating here, although I feel like that's not unusual for breakfast places. It's one of those everybody knows your name kind of restaurants. Parking is rough. Limited and hard to pull back out once you're leaving. A lot of people park across the street at the school but that's tough to do when school is in session. There is no street parking. However if you see the lot is full, be assured it's pretty crowded on the inside anyway.
The quintessential small diner. Established in 1949. Pete knows how to prepare breakfast. Great corned beef hash, hash browns, flap jacks, real maple syrup. Forget about the chain restaurants and support the locals. They are so much better.
This place literally is the goat. None of these other places in town compare an they should probably just close up shop. Really home made flavor and consistent. We can go there and know it will taste the way it did every time before that. Really feels like home, always feels welcoming, the perfect Sunday morning breakfast joint.
This is a great diner. Food is the best to find for breakfast. Small restaurant. But wait staff is so friendly and owner/chef Peter is the best. My wife and I go often
Cute little family owned diner with delicious breakfast!
Staff seemed to busy to care. Took forever to get our food, and forever for someone to take my money. No one asked how we were doing during the meal.
Hands down our families favorite breakfast diner to go to!!! Friendly staff, delicious food.
awesome little diner. exactly what you re looking for! cap n crunch french toast was great
Local small town diner that offers the friendliest of service and the Best ever blueberry pancakes. I believe in supporting family owned businesses. I have grown up going to this place!!!
It was ok, little lite on the serving sizes on the cornbeef hash with 3 eggs
Great breakfast place! Our go to when we get the chance. waitresses are always friendly. The fact that you smell like breakfast all day is a side effect of a great meal.
Literally the best breakfast I ve ever had. I got the Queen Bee omelette (avocado, cheese, tomato) and WOW. You know a place is good when all their food (but especially the omelettes) are cooked to absolute perfection. We ll be back tomorrow for pancakes! LOL
Great food and great service. A must stop if your driving through the area.
My favorite Diner in New Haven County! Owner Peter Homick does an amazing job. I recommend "The Canoe" omelet! No matter what your order...ask for a side of their famous corned beed hash!!! I'm Bob Appleby and I approve this message!
The pancakes are the best because they are light and fluffy.
Nothing better in these parts for breakfast!
Awesome omelette combos, superb home fries and hash. Would go there everyday if I could!
By the way...the staff is the best!!
Honestly, the best home cooked breakfast I have had in a long time. The place is small and cozy and they make you feel like family when you walk in. We had to wait a few but ot was well worth it. Funny thing is when we sat outside to wait, it began to drizzle a bit and within a few minutes a couple came out to let us know they were done and felt bad cause we were waiting in the rain. Nice town, Amazing people, Very special restaurant. I am not going to let you know how amazing the food was or how well priced everything was. Just take a ride over and take my word for it. Support this place. I guarantee you will make this a future stop for breakfast.
Thank you guys for the love you put into this place, It shows!!!
