Standard US restaurant norms apply: lunch and dinner service with a quieter stretch between, cards and tap-to-pay accepted almost everywhere, and a tip of 15-20% customary for table service. Fast food and quick-service counters expect payment up front and tipping is optional. Bars check ID for anyone who looks under 30, and the drinking age is 21 nationwide.

My wife and I came as our first stop to the city. The service was great, and our waitress gave us great recommendations and her favorites. My wife had the breakfast shoe and I had the chili cheeseburger shoe and both were delicious. So much food for a good price.

Fantastic place. Seated and waited on right away. Food came out in a reasonable amount of time. It was very hot and delicious. I ordered the horseshoe with a chicken fried steak, hash browns, eggs and covered on gravy. It was way too much for me to eat. But I did the best I could.

This is an iconic classic American diner. The food was fantastic. I ordered the Country Fried Steak. It had a crispy outer layer and tender meat inside, smothered in thick, creamy gravy. We also got the huge 16-inch pancake. It was light and fluffy, ideal for families to share. The portion size is very generous, and the vintage atmosphere is lovely. That said, the service deserves only one star. There was a long line out the door, so the staff were rushing to turn tables. We hadnβt finished our meal and were still seated, yet they started clearing our table early. They even placed leftover cola cups from another table onto ours. While cleaning up, they knocked over the soda, spilling it all over our clothes. We were left covered in sticky liquid, which completely ruined our travel plans for the whole day. Great food, but the inconsiderate, rushed staff ruined the whole experience.

We sat at the counter where they took our order pretty quickly. After about 25 minutes they told us they ran out of items on our order, which we knew, as we heard the dialogue, so we paid for our drinks and left. Interesting place but we left smelling like a grill. The staff didn't seem to have processes in place as we saw a plate of food sit for about 25 minutes waiting for the other items on the order to come up. The staff also seemed annoyed with each other and with being so busy an hour before close. We saw one employee flip another the bird as well. I wouldn't suggest going out of your way to eat there if you are traveling through like we were.

Wow. We seen this place on Guy Fieris tv show Diners Drive-ins and Dives and just had to check it out. I must say we were not disappointed. The atmosphere was unique. The service was fast and friendly and the food was absolutely amazing. I would give this place a 10 out of 10. If your ever in the Springfield Illinois area I would definitely stop in for some good old fashioned comfort food..
