The adjoining full-service bar is great for cocktails. Leave it to the Minerva boys to put up a building that can't be ignored. The Market Diner, located on the hottest street in town, literally shines with its mirrored aluminum siding. An instant hit with area diners, it still draws crowds, who at times are willing to wait a bit for a seat. The menu is diner fare with a few embellishments.
Burgers head the list of favorites, with about a dozen variations.
The list goes on to include variations that can include cheese, chili, bacon, barbecue sauce, fried onions - you get the picture. I still add ketchup. Many people are drawn to the extensive fountain treats, which include, of course, well-made shakes and malts. Floats invoke the past with old-timers like Black Cow, Green River and Purple Cow. Old-fashioned ice cream sodas are creamy and zippy.
