Blue Bell Diner — Restaurant in McConnelsville

We visited from Newark, Ohio and really enjoyed downtown McConnellsville. Blue bell diner is perfect for the area. We enjoyed a delicious Hot Chai latte and a harvest moon latte (oh my word it's delightful that honey foam hits right!). The restaurant is clean and bright. It is tiny n quaint. The cousion on the bench seat could be a Lil more firm I felt like my chin was at the table once I sat down. As for service, ours was good we were welcomed with a hello and smile. We were seated as soon as a table opened up. I only noticed one girl with her hair down and I saw her delivering food the most. That really grosses me out. I doesn't look good carrying food and clearly trying to keep your hair out of it I could tell she was struggling, just make her wear it up like everyone else she's beautiful no matter how her hair is.

I could have split the cakes between 3 people it's a lot! Well worth the price for locally sourced food! I will recommend this diner to others and...

Pssst......Slice it thinner and pile it higher. Also, the sloshing about of mop buckets isn't exactly the best practice at lunchtime, just sayin'. I'm local, so I'll be back, of course 😉 Looking forward...

As we came in the restaurant the hostess behind the counter was really friendly and polite. The waitress that waited on me didn't seem to have any patience. She recommended the Philly cheesesteak with fries and I ordered it. She never mentioned how much it cost. My partner ordered fries and that was it. After sometime she came back with our food. The fries were pretty good but my Philly cheesesteak was nasty. The bread was soggy and tasted like someone had just cleaned the counter and threw the food on it. I couldn't even ask my waitress for something else because she was nowhere to be found. This was my first time ever being here and I probably won't be back because of...
