I have amazing service every time I come here! The prices are unbeatable and the food is really good as well! The feel of the place is a cozy mom & pop shop, it is fairly small but I have never had an issue with seating as people tend to go in and out quickly. The place is packed a lot of times, but that's because they're worth it! The customer service alone will make you come back, let alone the yummy food! I highly recommend this establishment to anyone. They even have a liquor license (except Sunday) and can enjoy a nice drink while having dinner. 10/10

If you're looking for a traditional breakfast diner, Brotherton's is a good choice. Nothing fancy, flashy or too foodie, but you're guaranteed to find all the breakfast classics on the menu. The whole menu is available all day, which I love! I got a turkey reuben and really liked it. My husband got an omelette, potatoes, and toast. He really enjoyed it. Our server was kind and attentive.

I always feel like I am taking a trip back in time to the comfort foods of my youth when I make it out to Brotherton's - they definitely have a retro diner feel coupled with a neighborhood bar and pub vibe - family friendly and inviting - the staff was very attentive to our needs - they were very busy, but our server was always checking in to make sure everything was going well - the menu consisted of typical mid-western comfort foods - a great sampling of appetizers - and plenty of entree choices - you can't go wrong with just about anything they offer - the ribs are melt in your mouth delicious - don't set the plate on the top of your head or your tongue will beat your brains out trying to get to it -

I work all over town. I'm a Eastsider and rarely get over to Hamilton Avenue. That is untilI happened upon Brothertoms Family Restauant/ Great specials, think old timey favorites like open face roast beef and meatloaf. Double deckers look great and are priced well. Can't wait to try one. Great breakfast served all day at a more than fair price. Eat better than ihop and Waffle House for about half the price. Staff is friendly, seems like a local favorite. I see why. Decor is dated but it's clean. Don't be a snob, come out and try something new. IDoubt you'llRegret it

I kept hearing about this restaurant, but even with Apple Maps, it was a little different to find and access this smaller restaurant in the heart of Mt Healthy. It sits on Hamilton Avenue at the crossroad of Compton. It's where Hamilton is busiest, so good to know, there is free parking in the back. Just watch for some rough terrain. We entered from the back. The place was full on a Thursday evening about 6:30 pm. The waitress was efficient and kind. There was a variety of foods and breakfast served all day. My friend ordered the salmon and found that the size of the portion matched the lower price of about $12. They put a special flavoring on the salmon that is like teriyaki. They have a vegetable of the day. The salads are colorful with cheese tomatoes and iceberg lettuce. I ordered the blackened chicken breast that covered my plate and definitely shareable. Yum! The fries were typical thicker crinkle cut. Beer menu was limited for draft, but cans were also available. We are definitely going back to this relaxed atmosphere to try more from the menu. Lots of history in this location!I ordered
