50’s style diner with all kinds of classic music decor. All the way up into the late 80’s. The music playing is mostly early 70s and I love it. There’s a hint of a scent in the air I don’t care for. Sort of like Charmin toilet paper. ♀️ But, it isn’t enough to turn us away. Especially given this is the only place to eat on a Sunday morning that isn’t fast food. Isn’t Frankfort the Capital?

Awesome little 50s styled diner. Waitress seemed to be new but did her best getting answers to our questions and was nice. Onion ring appetizer with sauce was delicious and came out fast and hot! My dinner date got the main street burger (burger patty between two very smashed grilled cheese sandwiches). Could have been cheesier for sure. Fries were plain but hot and crispy. I ordered the Fried green onion BLT. I was offered alot of side options and got the slaw which was creamy almost to the point of soup but no complaints, it tasted good. The BLT on the other hand had 2 or 3 pieces of bacon and a thick chunk of red tomato. Not worth $9.99. When I asked about it, I was informed they were out of green tomatoes. I would have ordered something else had I been informed of that before I was served. So all in all this visit was JUST OK at best.

This is a very popular spot. It service was a little slow due to the number of customers. The atmosphere was retro. The chicken sandwich & pancake plate were good. The steak & cheese omelet was a little too runny for my taste.

Wife and I stopped in to try something different aside from the local chain restaurants. Super pleased with what we found. Main street vibes with a 50’s diner theme. Totally recommend giving it a shot

Deserves every star awarded. Staff was super. Only 2 employees there, every table full and didn’t want for anything. Breakfast was great, price was great and did I say the staff was great??. Recommend this diner.

The dining experience was lovely. Friendly staff, great prices and great food. I love the vintage aesthetic and the 50s music. It’s really cool and the omelets are very filling. I got the meat lovers and my companion did the build your own omelet. They give you hash browns and bread as well. Will absolutely be back when I’m in the area again.
