A friend of his has been there a few times with his car club so it comes recommended. There's plenty of parking space so no door dingers to worry about. The diner specializes in authentic American recipes and is complimented by its decor which is also authentically American. The booths, for example were imported from Chicago whilst the artwork and artifacts come from Florida.

Check out this Dessert menu. Anywhere that can put Orios in a pie with ice cream has got to be worth a visit. :norty:

The Bibo's are interested...

Just noticed... do they open in the evening? If not shame as it would make a nice night out too.

Normal hours are Mon-Sat 8am-4pm & Sunday 10am-4pm but if they have a car meet etc pre-booked for people eating in the evening then they will stay open. I will find out minimum number for them to stay open after 4pm if you like.

I have added you to the list above. :thumb:

odd place imho, trying to be an american diner but seems more like a greasy spoon with fancy chairs. Im not sure what i really expected of the place but it just didnt come across that well, the website pictures make it look much nicer than it actually is (or was when I went) i was quite disappointed really :(
Food was ok nothing special, admit it is cheap. cleanliness could do with being top of the menu, floor was sticky, menus and tables were sticky and greasy (my pet hate im afraid sticky greasy cafe's)
chef needed a few lessons in polite conversation too, the waitress said to chef that she had some orders in and was told 'well they will have to wait' :nono:, I know she was doing something at the time but maybe the correct answer would of been along the lines of 'ok thanks I will only be a minute', especially as there were customers in ear shot.
I doubt I would go back in a hurry but that is only my feeling on the place, most people seem to think its ok.
And the car park will be good for the scoobs :thumb:
Im sure you will all have a fab time........can someone tell me if the key lime pie is worth ordering, yum!

I kind of agree... the web photos do make the place look better than I guess it is...

BUT, I've found the service nice and the food is good and very cheap...

I spoke to the waitress who told us that the place had been the works canteen and has been open for a few years.

She said it needed a refit, which is scheduled in soon and then it will open late :)

The place is run by a small team and they are always busy (a good sign), there was some sticky menus... but where else can you get food like that!

That would mean I will have to order two desserts. As I kind of had my eye on the Chocolate Hanky Panky Pie - Chocolaty biscuit base topped with vanilla & chocolate ice cream & Orio cookies. :notworthy

Served with, as if it needed it, cream or ice cream. I wonder if I could find room for two puddings. :wonder: Can but try. :D

its so cheap you could take all the desserts home in a doggy bag :D

Now there's a thought. :idea:

As you are from Braintree like me, are you thinking of coming to this major blowout?

yeah i'm a fello braintreeite lol thinking about it but will seam strange turning up with out my car????
