What People Are Saying
from Google & Yelp"They have reopened for 2021. They were closed temporarily during the pandemic. I got an amaretto coffee. It's pretty good."
"The atmosphere was very nice, the view from the park outside was a pleasure to look at, and had many drinks to choose from. Very nice if you’re in a rush."
"This was a pretty decent place for the money. My friend and I came here for lunch and both of our cheeseburgers were amazing. Looking at the place I wasn't expecting very much from the food but I was very impressed with the quality of the burgers. When I was walking away I felt like I got more than my money's worth. The staff was all very friendly and my service was very quick. The only reason I'm giving 4 stars instead of 5 is from the fact that my friend and I felt a little queasy and we think that it might have been from the condiments that were on the table. Either way the food was great and I will return again."
"Good Fries and burger...steal of a deal"
"The cafeteria in 100 Washington recently remodeled and now you can't get a burger if that's what you want every day. So I walked over here. They have a damn fine burger. The fries I can do without. Staff is friendly. You don't have to go through the metal detectors it's right in the front doors to the right."
"They have reopened in 2021. They serve hot breakfast and lunch. I can't wait to come back and try that. I only got a coffee this morning. It was $2.50."
