Heavy TableApril 6, 2010The Scrambler is the headliner — three eggs scrambled with an omelet ingredient of your choice, served over a bed of yanks (homefries) with cheddar cheese and gravy on top, if you would like. Read more- Elynn LeeJune 7, 2016Griddle cakes were amazing - it's like apple pie in a pancake! The scrambler was also great and the pancakes were fluffy and huge. Get here early to avoid the lines, and they're cash only.
Paritosh BholeAugust 26, 2015Scramblers with corned beef and onions. I can hardly finish 50% of the dish. The rest I take out which I eat for dinner that evening and sometimes even some food as a breakfast the next morning.
Marty O.October 24, 2015Seat at the counter if possible. Omelettes are fluffy, delicious. They will give you a coffee-to-go. They're best equipped for small groups; 2 optimal, 3 maximum. Singles can walk-in & get seated fast
Melissa JanskySeptember 3, 2016I got the chocolate chip pancakes and a chocolate malt. The malt was delicious but the pancake was just okay. Be prepared for large portions. Sharing is the way to go.
Greasy spoon diner where the menu's on the wall, payments cash only, portions are plentiful and hash browns (yanks) are amazing
Tanya SparksAugust 17, 2014I just had eggs and toast but love the atmosphere of the old school diner. Everyone was very friendly and you get lots of food for little money. Cash only!
Pete JohnsonApril 6, 2016Usually busy, cash only. Huge servings to last you for msot of the day. Get the Scrambler. Great old time diner feel. Get a milkshake for breakfast!
Ashley GilleOctober 21, 2012Make sure to get there early or you'll be waiting outside in line for an hour! Great food! Banana cinnamon pancake is to die for.
By far the best breakfast joint no doubt, chilly cheese omelet and the steak and eggs are amazing!!!
Amber WAugust 31, 2014If you don't have a HUGE appetite, split a fresh coffee cake and Scrambler with your friend. One Scrambler goes a long way!
Julie ParfreyAugust 30, 2015We split an egg scrambler and a side of homemade corned beef hash. AMAZING.
John ColeAugust 7, 2014Great food, though you can pass on the chocolate chip pancakes, they're not that great. The scrambler is delicious.
Greasy spoon with great home-cooked food. Everything is great!
Katie MillikenMarch 25, 2015Be prepared to wait on the weekends and fight for a table. Usually worth it though. The pancakes are enormous.
Dave SawyerAugust 17, 2014Drank last night? Get the scrambler! Quiet night? SHARE the scrambler!! Boom. Winning.
Brent GatewoodAugust 18, 2014Can't believe there aren't more ratings here. Great breakfast spot. Old school diner with great pancakes!
Although the scrambler is the signature, you can't go wrong with their pancakes or coffee cake, either. And their shakes are delicious if you're in the mood for dessert.
Chi Psi FraternityJune 27, 2011A favorite of Alpha Iota of Chi Psi and Alpha Visitor Derek Taylor, don't miss Mickies' Scrambler and the malt milkshakes. Don't forget, Mickies is cash only! Read more
darlene lafalceJuly 13, 2015Cash only. Nothing special about this diner. Breakfast and lunch food was good. Menu on the wall. Interior needs a serious overhaul. Cramped uncomfortable booths and at least 1 hole in the floor.
The Scrambler is the trademark, and I recommend that you try it. They only take cash here too.
Zariff RastamMay 29, 2011Really good breakfast, accepts cash only but there's an ATM to the left to the door so you won't have an excuse to not go
Brad LeegeJanuary 10, 2013This is also an amazing place for lunch. Have the Meatloaf Sandwich with a side of Yanks!
Timothy DonnellyJuly 31, 2014A lot of food (healthy portions). Crowded and full of Sunday morning hungover kids.
Benjamin MilnerOctober 14, 2010Try the warm coffee cake, its delicious. I was a little disappointed with my soggy today but other than that, it was an outstanding meal.
Carrie BrownJune 25, 2011The famous Scrambler will cure any hangover. Each pancake is the size of maybe 6+ regular pancakes.
- Erik JohnsonJune 27, 2010Remember that this diner is CASH ONLY so stop by an ATM before you arrive. The closest one is at the credit union on Monroe across from Camp Randall.
Pepsi products on tap, including Mountain Dew and Diet Mountain Dew.
- scrambler, coffee cake, and a malt for breakfast, can't go wrong
Cole KennedyJanuary 6, 2012Here's a picture of a Scrambler with ham. Big, but tasted fairly bland in my opinion.
Danielle BrockmanApril 25, 2012Not sure why Mickies is so popular. Sure, it's cheap, but the food is terrible, it's always crowded, and the service sucks. Plus, you can only pay with cash.
