On our way out of Minneapolis, we decided to stop for breakfast and found this place. It was around a 20 minute wait but worth it. It was incredibly busy and a little overwhelming but that’s how you know it’s gooooood. The prices were low and the food was great. I will say that the eggs and the hashbrowns were lacking salt or seasoning really, but that’s okay because you can salt and pepper to your liking. The ham was super flavorful and the pancakes were addicting. I enjoyed a basic cup of coffee for the first time in a long time. My boyfriend got a skillet which he was raving about for the next hour. Our sever was an absolute sweetheart. Don’t sleep on this place. Super cute little diner. We will be back next time we’re in town!

The portions were generous and delicious! I recommend the garbage breakfast. Wow, lots of options and plenty to take home. I love counter seating, but they also have tables and booths. The interior is dated, which is fine, but the bathrooms are downstairs where there is obvious mold and water issues.

Great atmosphere! Didn’t know what to expect pulling up but such a nice, warm, and clean environment with extremely friendly staff. Great food too. The Garbage breakfast special was excellent and the Country Fried steak was top notch.

Excellent food, fast service, cool vibe. We have been there twice now, both times for breakfast and have really enjoyed the atmosphere and food. Prices are good. My wife is Gluten Free and I am on a low carb diet and they were very gracious about adjusting thier menu items to our needs. Highly recommend!
