Rosemary was so sweet and attendant. We stopped in Herman’s Drive-in before our drive back to Brooklyn on a weekday late morning. Everyone was so friendly, service was fast and food was good! We ordered the make your own omelettes and they were made perfectly. Our server Rosemary was very helpful and genuinely kind. As an LGBTQ black couple, it was a great experience in CT.

My five year old daughter and I stopped for a quick breakfast, and we were seated immediately as the restaurant about three-quarters full. We were quickly served OJ and coffee, and ordered (chocolate chip pancakes with bacon for her and a breakfast sandwich for me). Fifty minutes later, after slowly finishing my second cup of coffee I noticed two groups of people who came in after us had already finished and left and the the couple in front us who had just sat down less than 10 minutes before were already being served an eerily similar order. I asked the waitress to come over and asked for the check rather than waste any additional time with an understandably hungry child. The manager (?) came over and began to explain that somehow it was somehow our fault for not being patient enough as the food was just coming off the grill and our order had been delayed by numerous call-in orders. She suggested we should take our food to go if we were in such a hurry. When I pointed out the number of people who came in after us who already been served, including the couple who had just arrived, she told me to told me to have a nice day. Of course we left, but not before she scowled at us about the need to pay her $5, which I was happy to pay even if it was slightly more than the cost of the coffee and OJ. The coffee was ok, and the Homemaker OJ was obviously sub-par, and we didn’t have the opportunity to try the food. And it doesn’t look like we ever will as this is not a business or attitude I want to support.

It was an icy day and we didn’t want to travel far so we gave this place a try. We were so happy we did. The food was absolutely delicious, the portions were generous, the prices were reasonable, and the staff extremely friendly. We will definately be back.

Let me start by saying that the food itself was very good. We sat down at 11:10am, was able to order food at 11:15am. We received our food at 12:05pm. Almost an hour for breakfast. While it was busy, the place is very small and absolutely inexcusable for breakfast to take an hour. Regardless, the eggs were perfectly cooked, the toast was done just right but the hash browns were mush and very oily. Some people might like it that way but I felt they needed to be crispy. The bacon was perfectly cooked. Everything had a small bit of char on it which was the best part. Small Town atmosphere, you know what to expect walking in. You know what’s being cooked because you can see it. Overall good experience.

Food was good. Service was friendly. This place is a “greasy spoon” in every sense of the word, and I mean that in a good way. I’d definitely go back if I was in the area again.

Funky little spot with good breakfast options. Got the irish eggs benedict which was tasty. Also got some pancakes which were a very good size. I’d return again in the future. Pickup was easy. Place gets packed so call your order in early.

The real diner. Locals and visitors enjoy sitting at the counter and watching the cook put out breakfast efficiently. Ask for a He I’m the Wall on rye. My favorite.
