Rose's Hilltop Diner — Restaurant in Jay Township

This is the first time I went there and it was better than I expected. I do have to point out for the amount of customers they get, they could at least fix their booth seats as they had huge holes, rips, etc. The infant high chairs did not have proper buckles on them at all. When we went, it was quite, with very few customers, except for my baby who was not quite at all. Next, let's get to the food! So, the fries were actually the best fries around. Even better than your local fast food restaurants. The chicken tenders were perfect. The "spicy" curly fries were a bit of a let down because they didn't have a "spicy" kick to them. The Dexter burger was juicy and messy, falling apart once you bite into it. The ribeye had to be cooked a little longer because it was still rare, when I asked for not well done, but not too rare. The waitresses was kind enough to wait until I cut into it and take it back for a longer cooking session. The hamburger steak was good. The only issues I had was that there was not enough gravy on it and it was salty in some areas of the meat. The orange juice tasted nasty. I don't know where they got it from, but I DO NOT RECOMMEND! Other then the above faults and flaws, I think I might...

I was really hungry after driving for 5 hours straight on no breakfast. So when I saw this little diner I immediately hit the brakes, pulled in the gravel parking lot, and went in to eat. I'm glad I did! The breakfast menu had your typical traditional all-american breakfast foods on it, which is exactly what I prefer. I ordered a mushroom and Swiss omelette with a pancake in lieu of toast. Home fries were available for an extra charge. My omelette was really good and I'm glad that that's what I ordered. The pancake was really really greasy, almost as if it had been deep fried instead of cooked on a grill. But I was hungry so I ate it despite the oilyness. Almost every omelette on the menu specified American cheese, and I like every kind of cheese except American, so the reason I ordered the mushroom omelette is because that was just about the only one that came with a choice of cheese other than American or processed cheddar sauce (as opposed to real cheddar cheese). So overall I had a good experience and got filled up, but one needs to pay attention to the particulars on the menu if one is choosy about...

I stopped by after church on Sunday. They were very busy; I was alone, so I sat at the counter. Otherwise, I might have waited for a seat. They offer a traditional American breakfast menu; omelettes, combination plates, breakfast sandwiches, pancake varieties, and some traditional lunch sandwiches—like burgers and such.

I got an ranch omelette with hash browns and a pancake. Everything was wonderful! There was a little wait to receive my order. The wait staff was particularly personable and efficient. There was one surprise, though. They charge a surcharge of 3.9% for paying with a credit card. I am new to Pennsylvania, and this is a new concept for me. I have learned since that it is pretty much standard practice...
