"My friend suggested we meet at this diner a few days ago, I had never been here but I left knowing that I had found my new favorite breakfast spot. I am gluten free, they offer lots of options but I got the griddle special with a gluten free waffle - the strawberry cream cheesy ! I was absolutely over the moon! It is huge, soft and fluffy, and great taste! The hash brown was delicious, perfectly golden brown, eggs were done to perfection and the sausage and bacon were great too. I came back Sunday to get another one with my fiance and I'm already looking forward to the next time I stop by. Service was fantastic, our server was attentive and kind. I highly recommend stopping by if you get the chance!"

"We were 2 hours from home, just looking for something simple for dinner. My wife said, "How about a diner", and I was immediately hungry for a BLT. We found this place, we were warmly greeted, promptly seated, and made to feel welcome. The BLT was perfect, as was the apple crumble cheesecake we split. A true gem. If we lived closer, it would be a favorite. See you next time we're in the area!"

"A delightful find in the heart of Pottstown. Excellent and prompt service with spotless bathrooms. Loved the charm of the place and the friendliness of the staff and customers. The breakfast special was excellent but more food than I was prepared to handle. Great experience and our server Dorothy was a hoot. I hope she is our server the next time we go back!!!"

"Great first visit- better than expected! Pumpkin cinnamon cream cheese pancakes & scrapple Benedict :) Pottstown history and oldies style deco. Very comfortable clean feeling."

"I honestly didn't know what to expect going in. My 14 year old son loves diners & asked me a while ago to take him so today we decided to go. I was very pleasantly surprised!! I haven't been there since it was the old Pottstown Diner. Great atmosphere, very bright & so much space! Our waitress was Jazlynn & she was EXTREMELY sweet & engaging with my son. I had the western omelette & my son had chocolate chip pancakes. When the food first came out, I honestly thought they just put chocolate chips just on top but then my son said "ooooohhhhh they're baked in too!!" He got the short stack (that's two! ) but he could only eat one bc they were so big. My omelette was amazing. Perfect. So fresh. We will definitely be back! Next time we'll have to try a milkshake & a piece of that cannoli cake!!"
