Dinky Diner — Restaurant in England

I stopped at the Dinky Diner late morning for a quick bite on the way to a job. The owner was friendly and chatty and everything looks very clean and tidy and the new diner is such a massive improvement over the old shack. I had a bacon and egg roll and a coffee. The bacon was part-cooked already the fried for the roll and the eggs were cooked fresh. The roll was a large cob. The coffee was instant but still nice.
