| - I live across the street from this place, and it's become my "joint" in a sense.
Dan's has a reputation for being rude, but as long as you sit down first and come up to order when you're ready, I've never seen any problems. While this isn't necessarily clear, the staff almost always points it out before getting rude. If you show up a couple of times and follow their system, they become really friendly .and you gain some kind of "regular" status.
The food is greasy, but that is advertised well in advance. These aren't health burgers and I wouldn't eat them too often, but I've never seen a place that mapped together "greasy burger" and "vegetarian burger" as effectively as the "Double D". I think their highlights are their perogies, fries and onion rings, but their gravy is not vegetarian (in case you care about that) and they sometimes slop it on a little too generously for my liking.
Their beer selection, while small, isn't too bad. They serve coffee from Merchants of Green Earth, and they sell it for pretty cheap. It's too bad they aren't a coffee shop, because I actually enjoy their level of sass now that I've earned their good graces.
