Burgers came served on kaiser rolls, with a daily blue-plate special. The coin-op jukebox played 45s of Patsy Cline, Tommy Dorsey and Spike Jones. The jukebox, which contributed so greatly to the atmosphere of the place, was disconnected. I hadn t eaten there in 5 years, until recently when I was prompted to provide this review. The menu has broadened somewhat, offering a daily special that goes beyond the usual grill-type food.
Portions are ample, and prices reasonable.
We could have chosen a better time to visit. The diner had only that morning re-opened for the summer term, so it was not quite up to snuff. The fryer was not yet operating, so the fries that came with my burger were replaced with potato chips. In all the burger itself was good, far superior to fats food, but something other than the standard hamburger bun would have added to the enjoyment. To drink, I had Barq s root beer, for which there were free refills.
