Description: Review by Laura Brose c. 2008
This lovely smallish old diner with a turn of the century carved wooden back-of-the counter and a flooring of tiny hexagonal tiles serves traditional "diner food" as well as homemade ice cream and ice cream sodas, shakes and malts from the restaurant's early-1900s soda fountain. The waitress told me that all of the ice cream is home made at the diner. They offer several common garden variety flavors and the increasingly hard-to-find maple walnut. When they serve you a dish of ice cream, be advised, it is no one-scooper. I counted three scoops and change in my humble unadorned dish of maple walnut, so imagine what the banana splits must be like. While they charge more than some places, you get your money's worth, so don't come with a reluctant stomach. Besides having a choice between booth ot lunch counter, there is also seating in a tree-shaded back garden. Needless to say, the ice creams, root beer floats and Lime Rickeys are the big draw, but the rest of the menu is respectable.
