Checker's Grill

Hands down the best place for breakfast! The portions are huge, and the pricing is perfect. I travel cross-country a lot, and to this day, I have yet to find a restaurant that serves breakfast at the price of Checkers Grill. The customer service is always spot on-friendly, attentive, and welcoming. It's honestly the best place in Mount Union to eat. Whenever I'm in the area, I make it a point to stop by for breakfast. I highly recommend eating here. If you're in Mount Union, don't miss out on this gem!

Prowling around the back roads of central PA, I started to feel a mite peckish. And when you feel peckish in the middle of nowhere, good luck! Because the first few towns I went through had nothing. I could have knocked on someone's door... but no, I think I prefer an actual meal. Finally got to Mount Union, and spied an unassuming local establishment. Those are always the best, and Checker's is no exception! The prices are a throwback to days of old. It feels like a nice diner inside, friendly service, casual warm ambiance, a place that never really made it out of the '80s, and once you're there, you won't feel like it ever needs to change. In addition to paying less, you get a good quantity of delicious, fresh-grilled food, made to your liking - I asked for and received my burger medium-rare. So when you're hungry and you're in the middle of PA, plug Mount Union into your GPS and come on over to Checker's to fill you up right!

Fish dinner is excellent and best fries around. Good service. Very busy at noon to 1 and 5 to 6 because their food is good and prices very reasonable. I try to get there between those hours. Breakfast is great too. Large helpings. Burgers excellent. No complaints. 1 waitress alot of times but she is quick but be patient if you are there at rush hour. This is not fast food. So have a conversation with you eating partner. Estimate 15 mins to get your Hot food. Worth the wait. You can call ahead and get to go also. Favorite in Mount Union. 1 to 15 dollars for orders.

Stopped in while in town at the recommendation of a local. Had the BLT which was great, thick cut bacon, fresh tomato (tasted locally grown) and plenty of mayo. I also had the house made Checkers Chips with salt and vinegar seasoning. My husband had the Philly omelette and it was great too. Quiet diner, definitely a spot where locals go. Our server was friendly and service was quick.

Delicious food, huge portions, amazingly cheap prices. Love this place for breakfast!

Great service. The food is incredible, the biggest and best breakfast I ever had, prices are very reasonable

The servers are always super nice and the food is really good. It's worth the trip to get out of the house. I recommend the breakfast.

Very good food. Went based off of good reviews. I was craving some good, filling food and the hot turkey sandwich was everything I thought it would be!

breakfast was really good but bad service. was not served a refill on coffee and had to stop the waitress for a to go container mind that there were only three customers in the place at that time. the one waitress came around when there were more customers to refill coffee but not once did she come around to me. why's that. I can guess.

Some food was great - burgers, appetizers, kids meals; however, fries were underdone (almost raw) and there were only 2 waitresses for the entire lunch rush. They were trying their best, but service took forever and things that were forgotten never got placed at the table since there wasn't enough help for the entire dining room.
