The Lunch Box is a very small old-timey style diner. That could use a deep cleaning.and smells like roach spray.The lady at the counter appears anxious but nice. The cook (owner maybe) didn't smile much but seemed nice to the customer.The bacon, eggs and home fries breakfast platter was good.

The food was great (prepared by the proprietor), price for two people... PHENOMENAL, and our server Heather was extraordinary! We will go back... frequently!

I really like The Lunch Box in Hampden because it offers diner fare in a downhome dive atmosphere. And, they have a collection of vintage lunchboxes that is definitely worth checking out.I needed breakfast! I got the 2 eggs (over easy) with bacon, hash browns, toast, and coffee for about $10. This was not at all greasy and was really well cooked. I ate every single piece of food that was on my plate.Service is friendly and if you are lucky, you might get to see some regulars. Thank you, Lunch Box, on the Avenue in Hampden!

True community diner on the Main Street. Conversation is good and comfortableThey were out of chipped beef and Turkey bacon. So know your second choice. Table wasn't cleaned. And place was crowded. Masks were optional. Corned beef hash was good. Not crispy, bit tasty hash browns had excellent onions and a crisp outer section perfectly done. Comfortable place to get breakfast or lunch. Not a destination.

The Lunch Box was that local spot in Hampden that I always saw but never cared to go until recently. We wanted to eat at a different place but faced with long wait times we ended up here. The Lunch Box is your classic no-frills American dinner. And when I saw no-frills I really do mean none, menu is super basic but cheap which a plus I guess.Ordered the chocolate chip hot cakes with sausage and scrambled eggs. Service was a little slow and there was quite a bit of waiting to order and then again for our waters and a wait for then the food even though they weren't super busy. Food was decent and for the price you can't really complain but at the same time it wasn't anything special. Portion sizes were decent too which made the meal a decent value overall. Would I come here again though? Ehhh probably not. I wouldn't say this place is bad or horrible but it doesn't really stand out in any way. If you want to spend some money during the weekend on a nice brunch then The Lunch Box wouldn't be the place to go. Pretty much everything they make here is basically what you could make at home.

THEY WILL RANDOMLY STOP SERVING YOU FOOD. I go to this place often. Normally I grab carry out breakfast. On Wednesday this week I was trying to place an order while driving and had poor service. The call got disconnected before I could complete my order, so I called back. First I got a busy tone. The next call failed because I didn't have service. So I gave up on placing the order and ate something else. I called today (Saturday so 3 days later) to place a similar order and they recognized me (since I order the same thing often) and asked if I placed an order the other day. I told them I tried and failed to put in an order because of cell reception. They said they completed my order but no one showed up (though they never called me back to confirm). I apologized for the technical difficulties and assured them I was near by and ready to pick it up as soon as it's ready. After a brief hold, the nice lady on the phone told me that the owner was refusing to complete my order. I was puzzled and only said "wait what?" Then she hung up on me. I called back and said we got disconnected then she explained that they would not serve me and hung up again.I'm pretty bummed out, this is my favorite breakfast place and I made an honest mistake. 3 days later they still remember me and refuse to serve me. So am I just not allowed to do carry out here? Is there a statute of limitations? Please next time call back to confirm an order if you get disconnected in the middle of a call since you have strict policies to stop serving people.
