A simple little short-order diner (with country music playing on the overhead speakers.) The decore is a bit minimalist.
I can understand the service being hit-or-miss depending on who is working or how busy the place is, but seriously - this is not a 1 star joint and some of the reviews have been too harsh. Locals line up quickly on weekend mornings, so get there before 9:30 or after 11 if you want breakfast reasonably quick.
Pricing is very fair for their breakfast combinations. Cooks may under-prepare some food when there are many orders, so I usually specify "eggs crisp" or "extra hard" to prevent getting runny eggs. I'd like a little more variety in side items, but I suppose I should be ordering from the lunch menu more.
There are a few outdoor picnic tables you can use if the weather is nice. And assuming the local hobos are not hanging out at them. :-)
It can be entertaining sometimes while waiting for your food, to listen to the employees conversations, and the drama of their lives, or friends lives. Yelpers should chill a bit. This is South Gastonia. If you want efficient, corporate service there are plenty of fast-food places around.
