Despite its many strengths, some patrons have noted that service can slow down during peak dining hours, especially on Sundays. This can lead to longer wait times, particularly for those looking to enjoy a casual weekend brunch. A few diners wishing for more diverse menu options, especially at dinner, have expressed the need for a broader selection.
Some have mentioned that the cozy setting can feel a bit cramped when the diner fills to capacity. It’s best to plan your visit during off-peak hours for a more relaxed experience. Additionally, reservations are recommended for Sunday visits due to the high demand.

We were hungry coming off the road looking for something to eat and when we pulled up didn’t realize they were about to close. But they still took our order and the food and service was absolutely incredible. They especially went out of their way to make sure that my 8 month daughter was well taken care of and I genuinely appreciate that. Good food made and served people, couldn’t ask for anything better.

The staff is so welcoming, and I love supporting local family run establishments. I tried their new hot weiners the other day with one of my friends after we saw the ad in the Coventry reminder. They were fantastic!! I didn't catch the woman's name that took our order, but she was really kind and helpful. Suggested getting the meal because it was actually a little cheaper. I had only had your breakfast here before, which is FABULOUS! We will Def be back for the weiners again. They were a real treat.

Did not eat in the hotel. Pleasantly funky, Lava lamp lined entrance, Life Magazine photos on the wall. Old time phone booth with rotary dial telephones in check-in lobby. Part of the Hilton Hotel chain.
