    When we travel, we always look for local diners. Ma and Pa's did not disappoint. The food and atmosphere were excellent. The service was warm and friendly. We will stop there again.

    Delicious food seasoned to perfection. I didn't need to add salt or pepper. The gravy was amazing and that lil girl back there sure knows how to make perfect runny eggs. Our waitress was super polite and was great with all customers in the restaurant. Will most likely become a regular date spot for me and my husband.

    It's a little rough looking but the food was good. The waitress was pleasant and helpful with ordering. I ordered a ham and cheese omelette, a side of bacon and coffee. Prices were average for what I ordered. I would come back if I stopped in town again.
