    Your classic Cafe. Visiting with some locals, this place was repeatedly talked about as one of the best breakfast restaurants in the area. In fact the locals that we spoke with talked about their favorite menu items, called them by number, and gave exactly the description from the menu. Clearly many repeat and loyal customers. Our experience was top-notch. Not only where we seeded quickly, but every staff member was so cheery and helpful. Our breakfast items were exactly as described, and delicious. In case you were wondering, we had breakfast items number 1, and number 3.

    Yesterday was My very first time visiting this location. I was blown away at how well the staff worked as a team and even though the place was nearly filled, out server was amazing I loved how all of the servers helped each other and they were on the move constantly. The atmosphere was welcoming and it was a very relaxed feel. The food was great and portioned well. I also was impressed watching them clean a table area especially this one that had a high chair, they used a sanitizer cleaner and cleaned the entire chair down as well as the table and seats. Great job!!!

    Great Breakfast place in AJ. Service was amazing. From the minute we entered, they were right at the door. Menu has a good selection of breakfast and lunch. One nice thing is you can order smaller portions for breakfast. They serve beer, but it's listed below the wings on the lunch menu. If you aren't looking there, you'll miss it.

    Good food. The pancakes were piping hot.and good. The biscuit and gravy was cold and the biscuit was not very good at all. The thing that surprised me was, we put in order and in less than 3 min was on table. Like how did they do that?

    Extremely attentive staff, probably haven't had better service anywhere ever. It was is the waitress was reading my mind. The food is pretty standard and the prices are fair, but I would definitely go back every week if I lived here. This is my grandfathers favorite restaurant and I can see why.

    A busy place, sometimes there is a line outside but that is partly because it is a small place. The patrons are mostly part of the older generation ( 60+ ) and the staff treats them with kindness and respect. (This is something I witnessed several times on the two different occasions that I ate at this restaurant) their omelets are just okay but their crepes are very tasty, as are the sausage links. I think most people would enjoy eating here.

    First-time visit for breakfast. Very little wait time after ordering. Good food with a variety of breakfast options. Very fresh-tasting eggs. Excellent and attentive service.

    These guys are great!! Food was awesome and everything was super fresh. I just had a simple breakfast but it actually was the best breakfast I've had in a long time. You don't often eat home fries and think, "Whoa that is a damn fantastic potato!!" but they had me wowing at what are usually pretty mundane things. The service was spectacular--literally every single person working was super warm and welcoming to every single person who came in. They make you feel genuinely welcome. Lots of smiles. I worked in the industry for a long time and know how hard the job is-- I hope management is taking good care of y'all because you're all fantastic. You guys rock!! Thanks for the smiles and the great food. :)

    1st time here. Very busy, waited for maybe 15 minutes to be seated, got our drinks right away. Had to ask if someone could take our order, still waited for a while, but all in all it was great food.

    I liked it, I've heard great things about this place, and I'm glad I finally got to try it. I honestly had no idea where it was located til today but I'll be back. Food was pretty good overall, came out fast, great french toast and great portions sizes. Our server was very sweet and attentive and so was most of the staff, except one that seemed determined to get us out of there after we'd been there for maybe a half hour. She was so busy trying to push us out even our server felt the need to make a comment that she was in no hurry for us to leave. Look, I get it I've been a server so you want to turn and burn tables and make money, but the lady pushing us to get out was a bit much for even me. You can make your money and not be pushy to another servers table

    The service was excellent. The food was average...nothing to write home to mom about. We sat outside on the patio so I don't know what the interior looks like!

    Most places die down in the summer around here because of the heat, but this place is always busy. First of all the hostess smiles and acknowledges you when you walk in. The servers are friendly and can actually converse with you. They listen and ask questions. As for the menu, they have food options that you don't see other places. They offer breakfast and lunch anytime they are open. I ordered something simple, eggs, bacon, toast but for potatoes I ordered their house chips, which are basically freshly made potato chips and asked if they could add onions and bell peppers. And their salsa was fresh house made and good. The tables are loaded with all the hot sauces, creamers and jelly you want, oh and and a roll of paper towels, not cheap napkins. It was all awesome! Definitely recommend this place.

    Enjoyed a nice quiet breakfast with my wife. Prices are awesome, especially in the current economy. Food was very good. Service was perfect. 10/10 would recommend.

  • 5/5 Lynne S. 9 months ago on Google
    It's a diner, busy busy, good size portions, very accommodating, and both meals were great. If you are looking for a spotless, sterile, modern, place, this isn't for you. If you want good fast diner food, go! Hidden back behind...everything!

    Great service, great breakfast and very real desert atmosphere. Delicious. They accommodated my substitution of an awesome pancake for the toast. The pancake was perfect, fluffy, tasty and super satisfying. Great diner coffee. Five stars.

    Great little grill!!! We stopped here because some of the locals told us they had great food. It was busy as we got there at 8 am for breakfast. But they got us seated within 3 minutes. The service was outstanding. Our drinks came right away. When we ordered I figured it would be 10 or 15 min till our food came but I was wrong only 5 min and our hot delicious food was served. Highly recommend and will go back whenever I am in the area!!!!

    I ordered breakfast over the telephone with a young lady who was very helpful with suggestions as well as her generosity and professionalism taking my order over the phone. The eggs were sunny side up and perfect, as well as the chicken fried steak and the suggested hash brown casserole which tasted fantastic. We also ordered a BLT with the bread untoasted. The only issue there was no mayonnaise for the sandwich. Overall the food was hot and great tasting. A young lady brought the food out to us for curbside pick up who I believe was the young lady who took the order which had a wonderful disposition and a great smile. Thank you for your food and your excellent service and great prices that are great as well.

    We enjoyed the lunch. Would recommend this restaurant for persons visiting the area. Popular with the locals.

    Very friendly servers, quick and professional service. Breakfast was great as always. Sunny side up eggs perfectly prepared, no crisp strip around the outer edges. I have been here approximately 10 times and everything is great EVERY time. The best family restaurant in town.

    We were recommended to Hackers by a co worker of my hubby's. And we have been hooked since! Always seated in a timely manner, service is excellent! Food comes out hot. More like homestyle cooking. We love Hackers!

    The most impressive thing about this place is the staff. They work their tails off, and they are very attentive to the customers. The food is good, and the portions are good. It's a popular place so be prepared to wait for awhile. However, if you don't mind sitting on their patio, you can go right in if there's a spot open. The only reason I didn't give them 5 stars is because my hashbrowns were over cooked. They weren't just crispy, rather they were dark brown and crunchy. I would go back again.
