There's only one catch. Breakfast is not served after 5 p.m. on Fridays. Any other time the diner's open, pull up a chair, and dig into a tasty morning meal - any time of the day.
You can also find a great selection of sandwiches and burgers for a classic lunch.

But why jump right in? Indulge in an appetizer first. What will it be? BBQ wings, fried pickles, or batter-fried mushrooms?
Of course, there are warm bowls of creamy clam chowder to be had.

You can never go wrong with a fresh, crisp salad either. Try the garden, tuna, chef, or grilled chicken salad.
