The Story
The warm aroma of coffee and griddle cakes wraps around you the moment you step into that cozy retro parlor. With sunlight streaming through the windows, settling onto the worn counter stools feels like coming home to a bottomless plate of hearty breakfast goodness. It's a sweet escape in Exeter, where every bite of a treat tastes like a simpler, happier time.

The food, the service, the atmosphere were just awesome! It's a tight little diner but, there'll always make room for a little more. I am on keto and they were SO accommodating! They even went over what was being used to cook the food. Just awesome. Especially for being so busy. They obviously care about their customers and their food! I highly recommend!

This is a solid old school diner. Home fries- solid, and well seasoned, (not crispy style, if that's your thing) eggs cooked perfectly, and the banana bread 😋 My family all enjoyed their meals with the exception of the interesting take on stuffed French toast. My son likely read it wrong, thinking it would be cheesecake filling (his favorite) but it was just plain cream cheese.🤷♂️ Very pleasant and attentive waitresses. Definitely try this place!

Rhode island wouldn't be a place I'd want to live if they were nolonger here! Great food, awesome staff, and always hits the spot! Breakfast ALL day, because 2pm might be my first meal and I want French toast! Oui, S'il vous plaît!!! The atmosphere is a little crowded and if there are a lot of tables full it can be loud... but it's cool inside with lots of quirky things to look at. I gave 3 stars to atmosphere mostly because its age is showing. But honestly, I have been here about 1,000 times... and now my age is showing. I will always go back, it's nice to find yourself in The Middle of Nowhere. AND Next to Nowhere, isn't such a terrible place to end up either! Try the Cherry Ice cream!!

Stopped in with my sister & niece for lunch. I live in CT. I've been here a couple times. Foods always been good. I enjoy their breakfast over their lunch. Our server Stacy was wonderful.
