5 Stars! The food is very good and affordable, the service was prompt and the atmosphere is great. The place is spacious and clean. Plenty of parking available, quick access to highway. It’s very popular so there may be a little wait but definitely worth it! Highly recommended.

Decent diner food. Not the best for breakfast for my family. Maybe lunch would be better. Our pancakes were very basic. In todays world of great coffee to be found in most place, this place misses the boat on decent coffee.

In CT from VA visiting family and needed to grab breakfast on the fly. Mapquest alerted me to Nick’s and the reviews and description had me stop. I am sitting at the counter being served by excellent, attentive staff, all while rge sit down waitress service and take out (both walk in and drive through) are humming on a late Thursday morning (fantastic buzz, far from peak time). To top it off, the food is fine and priced right. One feels Nick’s has been around for a long time and will continue to serve well into the future. Go! Chrissy at the counter will be a pro – and I even saw Nick hard at work with the regulars.

Great omelets!!! We went for breakfast and the food was ready super fast. I’ll most definitely make my way to visit the place in person and to try out the lunch and dinner menu.

The breakfast is amazing! I had egg and cheese with georgia hots on a poppyseed horn and loved it. I had never heard of poppy seed horns as a bread option, and I had never heard of Georgia Hots. The poppyseed horn is essentially a soft Cresent shaped roll that has a potatobread like sweetness. The Georgia Hots were essentially a hot sausage.

I love this place! One of the best breakfasts I have had. The corned beef hash is homemade and fresh. Everything is made to order. No frozen homefries instead soft, hot potatoes lightly seasoned to perfection. I can’t wait to try something new next time. Great job!!

The food in general is pretty good. Standard diner fare and certainly better than most other places in the area. But the home fries are a step above. I drive past at least 3 other diners to get breakfast at Nicks for the home fries alone. They are that good.
