| - The people here are very, very nice, but...
First, when you walk in, there is no sign or anyone to tell you just seat yourself. When the lady behind the counter was done with another customer she looked at me like I should be telling her something so I said "Just one for breakfast" to which she advised me to just sit anywhere if it was available. I found a table in the corner by the window that had not been cleaned off yet, but it wasn't that bad so I took it. My waitress helped me pretty quickly and asked me what I'd like to drink, I asked for a Diet Coke. I was asked if I wanted a can or bottle, I immediately began doing the calculations in my head about which option would provide the most Coke product, I chose the bottle. As she walked away I wondered why in the world she wasn't just bringing me a cup of Diet Coke which included free refills like most places (see: everywhere). Was it really possible they charge for a drink every time you order one? Yes, yes it is. They charge $1.00 for a can of Coke. And that mattered because that's what I was given instead of the bottle.
After the soda dilemma it was time to order, I went with the meat lovers omelet. In my opinion it was kind of expensive given the type of place it was, but in all fairness the omelet was pretty big and was hanging over the edges of my plate. It tasted good but it was no IHOP omelet. I chose the rye toast and hash browns as my sides, but when it was brought out I had home fries on my plate. The waitress mumbled something about needing to put them on my plate so she could serve it to me, but I'd be getting another plate (presumably with hash browns?). Again, I didn't quite understand what she said so I'm making assumptions on that one. That said, I didn't care that much because I didn't plan on eating them anyways. This was the spastic curly haired waitress that someone else mentioned in their review. Very nice lady but was all over the place and seemed overworked, asked me if I was ready to order after I already ordered. And I never got my other plate that she mentioned previously. Oh well. Later I saw someone with a 32 oz bottle of Diet Pepsi. Not sure if they brought it in themselves because they were aware of the situation, or if that was what you get when you order a bottle of your chosen soda product.
When I paid my check it was to my surprise that the place actually had a credit card machine. I fully assumed I'd be paying in cash based on my aforementioned Coke situation. The lady behind the counter wasn't able to give me exact change, guess she ran out of pennies. She said "it's your lucky day you get an extra penny!" So, I guess I came out on top?
