Courtesy Diner has been slinging its famous slingers since 1935. There’s also the requisite diner lineup of burgers, patty melts and more, but make sure you bring cash. By Gabe Hartwig

Great place to have lunch. About the most friendly staff I've ever encountered. The chili cheese burger was good according to my wife. The western BBQ burger was delicious.

The grill closes daily at the following times... from 5:35 to 6 am, from 1:35 to 2 pm, and from 9:35 to 10 pm. Also, they only take cash. So get your green and your order in right!

Hell with any negative reviews. One of the best places around any time of day. Credit to the staff for cooking and serving. A+

Okay, this place is amazing by itself, but the jukebox selection is what makes it legendary. However, don't play Don't Stop Believing by Journey. The workers have to hear it enough a it is.

Biscuits and gravy. Order it.
Kimberly MullerJanuary 15, 2012
Never again. I'm all for greasy spoons, but this was terrible. Watery coffee, old bacon that wasn't even warm and was hard as a rock..microwaved premade biscuits and tamales, hard toast...uh uh.
