"This café truly embodies the spirit of a classic American diner, complete with country music, railroad-themed decor, and a touch of Old West charm that many of Truckee's more upscale places tend to lack. Having grown up here with my dad, I have fond memories of this spot, and it still feels just as welcoming as I recall. The French dip sandwich was impressively large and made with homemade bread. The staff welcomed me like a regular, offering warm and friendly service. One morning, while seated at the counter, I found myself reminiscing about those breakfasts I shared with my dad before heading out to ski in the Sierra Nevada. Millennials, take note: this café embraces its authentic old-school American vibe, and I couldn't be more excited! While I believe everyone can enjoy it, it's essential to recognize its genuine character. Skip the overpriced, trendy vegan California dishes and opt for something simple yet exceptional!"

I arrived early to find parking and was pleasantly surprised to learn that breakfast was half off from 5:30 to 7:30. The staff was incredibly friendly and attentive, and the food was amazing.

I made an unexpected stop in town and decided to grab a quick breakfast. This restaurant was wonderfully cozy. The food and service were top-notch. We particularly enjoyed the biscuits and gravy, and the decor was quite fascinating throughout. If I’m ever in the area again, I will definitely come back.

Three of us had breakfast at this restaurant, and we were incredibly impressed by both the food and the service. I tried the bagel sandwich with ham, and it was simply delightful. I also had the pleasure of meeting the owners on my way out, and they were truly wonderful people. Thank you for such a fantastic dining experience—I wish there were more restaurants like yours!

The food here is outstanding, the service is remarkably attentive, and the portion sizes are huge! Honestly, one dish could easily serve two people. Unless you’re planning on spending the entire day hiking, in which case the portion is just right. The generous servings provide ample energy for a day of trekking in the mountains. I absolutely loved this place and its decor!

I had an amazing breakfast at this restaurant, especially thanks to their homemade jam, which was simply outstanding. The coffee was excellent too, and I loved the half-price early bird breakfast that starts at 5:30 AM. I will definitely return whenever I'm in the area. The counter service was exceptional, and the atmosphere was very friendly. Be sure to look at the specials board for the dish of the day! The whole wheat bread with butter and homemade jam was incredibly delightful—it practically melted in my mouth! View menu

I wish I could give this place 10 stars! What a fantastic find! The owners came over to our table and chatted with us like we were part of the family, making us feel genuinely welcome. The food was exceptional! The service was top-notch—our waitress was not only friendly but also very proficient at her job, and the ambiance was just right. They even serve half-price breakfasts from approximately 5:30 AM to 7:30 AM. We will definitely return whenever we’re in the area. If you're close by, you absolutely have to check out this amazing spot!

Exceptional diner fare! The owner makes everything from scratch, which truly enhances the overall experience. Be prepared for a lively atmosphere during peak tourist seasons, but the staff excels at handling the crowds. The line cook works with remarkable efficiency; you might get your meal before you've even finished ordering! Be sure to try their freshly baked goods—if you spot a pie, snag it quickly, as they sell out rapidly! Another impressive aspect is their dedication to the community; they open their doors after hours for local kids when school lets out. And did I mention the food is outstanding?!!
