Our Guestbook
“ After we finished our really delicious lunch at April's Diner, Pam and I brought this big bad boy home to split for dinner later. We both love Chili Cheese Dogs, and I must to say, this one was epic, and entirely in a class all of its own. April's kitchen deep fries the dogs (something we've never had or even thought of) then smothers them with their own mouth wateringly delicious chili. That chili by itself would make a tasty meal, but combining a generous helping of it to a hot dog then adding cheese takes it clear over the top, to say the least. We will for sure be making some return trips for those, either to eat there or bring home, this was in my opinion the best chili cheese dog I've ever had. A huge bang for the buck! ”

“ April, Darin and their team really made us feel at home today. We stopped in the diner for a quick lunch and were not disappointed- definitely didn’t leave hungry! The service was great, they checked on us regularly, small diner atmosphere was perfect. The food was great too. We will be back. ”
“ The breakfast I had was not bad. It just felt too small for breakfast but I still loved it. Bothy companion and I became members of the clean plate club. I even finished the egg which is to say I never do anywhere else. It was delicious and fluffy. The bacon was the perfect amount of crispy and the French toast was delicious. The orange juice tasted a little weird but other than that great. Server was very attentive, nice, and helpful. ”
“ My son and I were in town for bowling and only had a short time for lunch. We had an amazing meal in less than 20 minutes. Service was excellent as well. We even grabbed some girl scout cookies for a snack later. I sure do appreciate these people accommodating our time crunch. We will definitely be back! ”
“ Great local restaurant with varied and inexpensive breakfast menu. We will be back! Cannot comment on balance of menu. ”
“ It was my first time trying this diner and it definitely won't be my last. The waitress was very friendly and recommended the biscuits and gravy, so that's what I ordered, and it was really good! Looking forward to trying their lunch menu next time. ”
