Nearly 100 year old dining experience. Great history laden diner going back to 1931 when it was shipped to West Hartford, Connecticut. It was run by a family for many years afterwards. It has been kept in original clean historical condition for all these years while the city continued to grow and modernize around it. Beautiful original decor with original cast iron counter stools, tile floors and real wood everywhere. Cozy decor, but as with old diners, it is small with 6 cubical tables and a dozen counter stools. Great competitively priced breakfasts, well made. The free parking is available next to the diner, but is limited. Note: Parking area shows as a tow-away zone, but is not, as the diner rents space here, as well. Very clean restrooms, still in original look of 1931. Just beautiful. Does not have a ramp for access.

Small old time diner in West Hartford. Went for an old time breakfast that kept the one cook they have extremely busy. He got it all done, and the two waitresses also kept things moving. Awesome retro experience. Not many seats, so we sat at the counter and watched the show. Great food, and very reasonable prices.

My husband and I went here for a brunch date with his mom and our son and we love it! Besides the food being excellent( they know how to season). The diner is soooo nostalgic, gave you a small glimpse of what a diner looked liked in early/mid 1930s. Had to take a few pictures, set up was authentic, staff was friendly. We plan on coming back for another date. Highly recommend this place .

It was a lovely place to spend time with friends but the service was unacceptable. felt like we were being forced out of this restaurant, the food was mediocre. Do not recommend the pancakes unless you are fine with a cardboard texture. Also recommend asking your waiter/waitress for exact prices because both menus were priced differently. We were also given the check the second our waitress gave us our food. And when we paid with cash the waitress seemed annoyed with us. A few hours later the other ladies and I got very bad headaches from the food that was served. Overall, I recommend choosing another diner to eat breakfast.

It’s what a diner should be. We were a party of four for breakfast and everyone enjoyed their food and the atmosphere. The staff is very friendly and the food is excellent. The service was really fast. The prices are very reasonable. We waited just a few minutes for table on Sunday. We will be back.

Classic diner along with the classic spinning stools at the counter. Kudos to the cook. Not many places make bacon to order these days. Service could be a bit more friendly – a little smile does wonders for the start of one’s day.

food was good, wasn’t a fan of the hash browns. The waitress was rude ! when we went to pay and tip her she got mad and demanded more for her tip when she didn’t even deserve anything at all. She acted like she hated her job . I’d never go back

This is a classic diner. We sat at the counter. Our coffee was always full and the food came out quick. They do a good job turning over tables. The potatoes weren’t quite as good as I had hoped. A little starchy and not as crispy as I prefer. But overall the food was tasty and the diner atmosphere was a win. They don’t have many gluten free options. They don’t really have a great way to keep a gluten free cooking service, but the omelets were okay since I don’t have Celiac and just a sensitivity. There aren’t any GF Bread options. The price is reasonable for the quality and quantity of food.

Quaint 17 counter, 6×4 booth diner. Hoping joint and old school atmosphere. Don’t ask the waitress how she is doing as she is wicked busy. Food is made by a machine dressed as a human. Will come back.
