    Ok so this is a cool little diner.  You get a bang for your buck!  I'm not kidding- I probably got the most filling breakfast of my entire life for less than $10, maybe $12 if you include the fact that I got a soda.  

    The hungry man's breakfast, like everyone else has mentioned, is what I got, and would 200% recommend.  I also got a western omelet the following time I was there and was equally satisfied.  

    This place has been around for years and years and the staff who work there are excellent.  Stacy, my waitress, was wonderful and funny!  She was great.

    I'm sure this place gets busy on the weekends but during the week, there was no problem with seating, and I sat at the bar.  Parking is bit hectic, but I managed (even being the horrid parker like I am).

    Authentic diner experience on the Providence waterfront. Great food, wonderful ambience, people. Everything a diner should be. Privacy plants special where the pancakes. It's all good

    Great food, great prices, service is fast & friendly.  Wish they were open later for late appointments at the hospital but great for the earlier ones.

    After driving past this place many times on my way to work at the hospital, I always wanted to check this place out. Boy am I glad that I did! I had the Seaplane special that includes eggs, toast, home fries, and corned beef hash. I ordered the home fries well done, but they were a little soft in some spots. Otherwise, there was nothing to complain about at all. The hash was very good, even though it's no longer homemade according to my waitress.

    Service was quick and efficient, and the coffee was good and strong. It seemed popular with the locals, including some uniformed Providence Police officers and utility company workers. I spent more than I would have at Dunkin or McDonald's, but it was well worth it. If I'm in the area again at lunchtime, I would certainly give their lunch menu a shot.

    I loved this place!
    In fairness, let me just say that I wanted to love it from the moment we drove by the first time. It's in a funky little industrial area and it stands out because of the seaplane in the roof. It feels like being in the old times, the whole place is just dripping with nostalgia.

    As we often do when visiting an area, we came to this cool diner for breakfast. It was a rainy day and the ambiance was cozy and welcoming. The waitress was friendly and attentive and we had our meals quickly and nice and hot.

    We both enjoyed our eggs a great deal... I had eggs benedict with avocado and Hubby had an omelette and we both remarked how good the food was. We took our time and enjoyed more coffee before heading on our way.

    If I lived in Providence this is a place I'd want to go to often, and am jealous it isn't my own hometown hangout!
