| - Stopped here on my way home from a night out with friends. I must say, even after a few drinks, I knew better then to eat anything they placed in front of me.
Eggs were in a pool of wetness, and were so runny they looked unappetizing. I mean, how can you screw up scrambled eggs. Hashbrowns were cold to the touch. They were probably sitting out all day long, waiting to be fed to someone at 1am whom they hoped wouldn't notice.. well, I noticed, and after one bite of them, they joined the eggs on my plate in the "I refuse to eat this zone". Next up was the bacon, the bacon was sitting in a pile of grease and I was curious as to why my cold bacon was sitting in a pool of oil, but at this point, I decided to eat the bacon.. I mean, I am a human being and not eating bacon would just be irrational. At this point, I decided if I was going to attempt to eat the untouched pancake on my plate, It would probably need lots of butter and syrup to try mask whatever taste it could potentially have, and I was surprised.. why this pancake tasted like cardboard, and no amount of butter or syrup would help. Aunt Jemima's boxed pancake mix that they feed you at childhood summer camps would have been more delicious and flavorful... so this too ended up in the "absolutely not zone". I did eat my side of toast. It was thick style Wonderbread and tasted delicious with peanut butter.
The service was terrible. We waited 10 minutes before someone finally got up and offered us a table. Yes, got up.. The waitress and cook were sitting at a table in plain view, drinking coffee and having an in depth conversation that they refused to pause to seat a couple of paying customers. This actually repeated itself and after the terrible food I simply got up and walked up to their table and asked if I could have my bill and a machine so I could pay and leave. They made a snide comment about "eating too quick and not enjoying the company of the person I was with". So incredibly unprofessional.
So yes, I gave Humpty's one star based on Wonderbread, Kraft peanut butter, and cold bacon (simply because it was bacon). I will never be going back to this "restaurant". The only reason I even bothered writing this review was in the hopes of saving another person from this absolutely terrible place.
