We were visiting Morgantown and decided since we were so close this was the time to venture down. It was in between breakfast/lunch time so we could eat either, in luck they serve both all day. This is so kitschy and cute. it is all the fun colors & decor, just missing some music. Unfortunately they were not accepting credit cards but they did accept paypal and things like that. The menu was overwhelming so we chose breakfast which was a ton of food. It was actually the fluffiest and best omelet I have ever had. It was full of mac n cheese, bacon and cheese and I added mushrooms. My husband got an italian sausage sandwich on grilled sourdough. I wish we had room for one of the ginormous shakes. I did ask for some cake but they were sold out, Mondays are hard because they get slammed over the weekend. I would go back if in the area.
This kinda a throwback to the 50s with a modern twist on food. Diner isn't big but several tables and booths are available. Came near closing time and the place has such a cool vibe and I can see why many come here. Ice cream is 3 flavors vanilla, chocolate and strawberry. The dessert menu is big with ALL the sweets. Never tried the food only ice cream and service was very friendly. Now they ain't cheap but the don't skimp either. Orange float, Reese milkshake concoction and peanut butter pie was amazing.
Talk about great food and great service !! We had a great selection of food. Our group shared the Kitchen Sink Wrap , a wrap with fried chicken tenders and everything you can imagine served with Ranch Dressing and a side of fries. Also at our table was the Mac & Cheese Burger with onion rings. Hand made burger cooked to perfection. Almost (but not quite) to big to bite. And a chili hotdog, great flavor and plenty of dog. Dessert was milkshakes all around, strawberry and a chocolate, sharing is suggested ! Served on a platter with cool whip and spinkles. Hand dipped icecream, with fresh milk and so good!! SHARING IS SUGGESTED. And plan to go back when possible, you will not be disappointed! The decor is adorable!! Love the bright colors too!
A friend and I were in town for a sporting event. Our hotel website mentioned this place so we tried it. The atmosphere and decor are phenomenal! Bright, colorful...just makes you feel happy! Our server was pleasant and our food was good. The homemade cheesecake is wonderful!! Would definitely return if ever in the area again.
This place is super cute, fun menu, and everything tasted great. It is a bit pricy, but the portions are generous and the service is exceptional.
