Know something we don't?
This trendy new diner is located on a historic stretch of Main Street between Fifth and Sixth streets. Inside you're greeted with a picture-perfect model of a pre-WWII-era diner. High ceilings, vintage wallpaper, wooden tables, scuffed tile floors, cushy red leather booths and an old-school, lunch counter-style open kitchen make for a historically sentimental scene. You can almost picture John Fante ambling into this place for a cup of coffee back when Angel's Flight still ran and Bunker Hill stood proud. The menu is moderately priced and carries a roster of egg and pancake dishes along with burgers, salads, soups and vegan and vegetarian options.
Of special note are the decadent pastries and desserts including peach cobblers, lemon bars and vegan coconut tapioca pudding (divine!). The house specialty pastry is the Cher cupcake. We can't tell you what's in it, you just have to order it for yourself.
