UPDATE: I can't complain about this place. This eatery is as local and mom & pop as you can get. You get that wholesome feel the moment you walk in and are served with the upmost quality of service. Being small I'm sure helps, but they don't shy from making you feel like your at your grandma's place. The food is fresh and above any standards I have seen in quite awhile. This was only my 2nd time here.
I am not a huge breakfast fan, but We had time to kill and my wife is. I went ahead and ordered a omelet and my judging starts with how fresh the avocado is, and they didn't disappoint and what's even better is they didn't skimp out either.
We got there right when it opened so we got sat right away, which is key because by the time we were leaving they were getting busy. So food is great, service is none other and the ambiance is what you expect from most places in town. Try it and let me know.
All the time I have ever lived or now that i don't, but still spend sometime in Exeter I never made it a point to come try this hidden gem out for myself.
Its a small, but clean location with a adequate staff. The menu isn't large but just right the size to accommodate most tastes and diets and they don't mind making changes to any of their meals if the need be.
Everything is clean and the staff is very hospitable. The food comes out hot and just s you ordered it. I really don't have any complaints and hope to come back soon to try out their lunch menu.
The two pork chops, eggs, hash browns and toast were all cooked...
Read moreThe Exeter Whistle Stop is the Gold Standard for American Diners! They nail the big 3 when it comes to a restaurant. First off, the Atmosphere is amazing. The diner sits in the cozy setting of downtown Exeter. The ambiance of trains on the inside and outside is perfectly done.
Secondly, the top notch service by the two waitresses. Teresa, (not sure if I spelled her name right) was my main server. Not once did my, or any other person in my group drinks go empty. Both ladies had our drinks refilled regularly without having to ask. The waitresses were constantly in motion taking orders, serving meals and refilling patrons drinks flawlessly. All while being able to interact with each and every customer and make you feel at home. It truly was an art form to watch.
Thirdly, was the food. My pictures do it no justice. The flavors and textures of each meal were nothing short of perfection. The homemade chili was superb. The French fries were perfectly crisp on the outside while the center was fluffy and the seasoning was spot on. I highly recommend trying it. The Patty Melt had a perfect toasty outside while the meat inside was very flavorful and the onion rings were some of the best I’ve ever eaten. The biscuits and gravy were flavor packed along with the French Dip.
If you find yourself anywhere within 20 miles of this amazing diner you have to stop in. I actually went back a second time recently and ordered the Chicken Fried Steak with country potatoes. It was out of the...
Read moreI was disappointed when I didn’t see eggs benedict on the menu and thought I would just settle for an omlette. I got the railroad with sausage, cheese, green pepper, and onions. It also came with hash browns and a biscuit with gravy on the side and it was A LOT of food! After I took that first bite in the omlette, I was not disappointed anymore. Usually, I feel that omlettes are bland and that’s why I never usually get them, but this one was super fluffy, flavorful, cheesy and delicious! I was really surprised and knew that I need to give omlettes a chance again. The hash browns are really good as well and were cooked so it was crispy on the outside and potato-y on the inside. I didn’t eat the biscuit as it was too much food, but the gravey – OMG – SO GOOD! I ate it on top of my hash browns and couldn’t stop eating even after I was full.
Overall, this place reminded me of why I love breakfast. They make everything in house and it’s amazing. Best of all, you get a ton of food at a great price and the service is very...
