Food: 4/5 Good flavor and giant portions. Didn't love my Salisbury steak but my hubby enjoyed his biscuits and gravy. Service: 5/5 The wait staff were all friendly and knowledgeable. It felt like going to a mom and pop cafe because that's what it is. Very casual and very cool. Ambiance: 3/5 The vibe is sort of old school meets homey but they could do with a declutter. The adverts on the tables I can deal with but the walls are covered with pictures and they are not spaced or positioned well. There was decorations but it felt haphazard in the worst way. You can do cute and kitschy clutter, but only if you do it well.

My order was wrong and they didn't seem to want to fix it so I choked down the poached medium eggs. and it came with a complimentary side of Trump rhetoric. Sometimes you just want to enjoy breakfast politics free.

Some years ago, I'll say about 5 or so, I went with my friend Jeremiah to try one of the places that had been in Derby for some time that we just hadn't gotten to. We sidled up amidst a lazy midday sun and got ourselves seated. The place was eminently local and had a long menu with a lot of options. We, being the ornery high schoolers we were, were enamored with two things: hush puppies and something called a "pickle and onion sandwich". I couldn't, for the life of me, tell you what else was supposed to be on it, but I could, for the life of me, tell you it was supposed to have had more than just pickles and onions. We ordered the puppies and the sandwich, both of us intrigued by the idea of pickles and onions as a central sandwich theme and the waiter, in their horror, agreed to deliver.I cannot understate our shock at the plated monstrosities that landed before us. What had been delivered to each of us was a centralized mound of raw onions and pickles carefully sandwiched between two slices of bread. Jeremiah, smartly, had at least asked for his to be toasted. I, stupidly, did not. Nonetheless we ate our sandwiches and puppies in full and I have to admit that neither of us really minded our odd meal at all. I still wouldn't recommend you order a pickle and onion sandwich, anyhow. The psychic horror inflicted on us at the restaurant that day is something we all might carry to the grave.The hush puppies were good, though.

Went there for Breakfast, food was good ( Not Great ), the restaurant is a nice family friendly place to eat, if you don't mind the attitude you get from some of the wait staff and the fowl language you here from the people around you, good portions for the price, over all not the worst place in Derby to eat.

Great service, amazing food! Overall 10/10 experience. We had the burgers, chicken strips and while they were amazing, every breakfast looked divine!

A+ rating across the board for their welcoming home town diner feel with friendly service to their heaping helpings of old fashion comfort foods. I especially liked their burger and sweet potato fries

Horrible experience, order for pickup was missing a major food item and had to return to the restaurant a second time. Staff seemed put out having to wait on me a second time. Upon returning home, both orders of children fried steak was pink and very under cooked. Do yourself a favor and stay away to avoid a very frustrating experience plus might save your own life by not eating undercooked food.
