3/17/24 Sun. My husband & I checked out their web site before going to their Cafe, the menu given on their web site was not updated to their current menu & what their NEW charges were! They also do their receipts the "Old Fashion" way, written by hand & without itemizing what cost what!?? Its VERY Confusing!! And as much as I tried to figure out the receipt taking me almost a 1/2 hr. doing so! I then still had to have the waitress explain how she figured everything out, as our total for just 2 people was $42.96!! This just seemed WAY TOO MUCH! I understand food prices have gone up a lot since the past 2-3 yrs. but we assumed their web site Menu was the same still & went by their "old" prices apparently! They should have shown the NEW menu prices on their web site! They ALSO decided to tell me after words when I was trying to pay my bill, that they except CASH ONLY!!?? I was shocked! I said what!?? The waitress said its on our front door. I went over to their front door & looked at it & it's just under their scheduled hours written in the same exact coloring & same size lettering!?? That is also the ONLY place they chose to post it! It should be posted on their Menu's & other placed within the Cafe & should certainly be put on their web site too! When we arrived to eat, a gentleman was just in front of us as we were entering & he was nice enough to open the door for us & let us go in first! SO WE NEVER GOT THE CHANCE TO EVEN SEE THE SIGN ON THE FRONT DOOR INFORMING US OF THE CASH ONLY! This is simply NOT a realistic way of running a business anyway! NOT everyone carries cash on them or may not even carry an ATM card with them all the time. The waitress said we have an ATM machine just around the corner. Well using an ATM machine other than your banks usually costs you an extra $5.00 more as an extra fee charge! WHY SHOULD YOU BE EXPECTED TO PAY A PENALTY FEE OF $5.00 SIMPLY BECAUSE YOU DIDN'T HAVE CASH ON YOU!? We were completely new to this place & had never eaten there before, so had NO idea this was how they ran their business! We will NEVER EAT THEIR AGAIN!! What a...
   Read moreWe LOVE coming here!! Every time We are here in Schoharie for Breakfast, we are HERE for Breakfast!! My Husband and I love coming to this warm, inviting diner! The way they serve and talk to you feels like Home! The food is Always SOO TASTY! They recently upgraded their drinking Glasses, and now they look so much better and more official!
The Server, whom is the Owners Daughter, is always so genuine, kind and warm. She always is super fast and knows how to strike up a good conversation while taking your order. Overall, really nice and sweet atmosphere.
The guy who seats you and brings you drinks and silverware works really hard. My Husband and I agree he’s the most Gentlemanly person we have met in a long time… Keep doing what you’re doing dude!
Spoke to the owner this time and informed her what a great establishment she has! She too, was extremely friendly and happy.
The food is always warm and fresh, and this time they had more options. I decided to get the Pumpkin Cheesecake. (Which is amazing because we went on February 24th, and they still had it)
They never let you down on the food, and they’re always around to make sure you are filled up on Coffee and that you’re satisfied. And… it’s Fairly priced for the Value you get!
We ALWAYS leave with a Box, and a Smile on our Faces! ————————————————————————— My Recommendations:
•Try the Pumpkin Cheesecake if you like Pumpkin and they Have it! •THEY DO NOT TAKE CARD, SO MAKE SURE THAT YOU HAVE CASH!
Pros: •They don’t take Cards •Amazing, Tasteful Diner Food with Decent Prices •Generous and Thoughtful Staff •”Homey” Diner Atmosphere- Pleasurable
Cons: •None!
Thanks Your Way! See you Soon! -Mr. &...

Price point: amazing value at a very low cost
I grew up in Schenevus so know the area since my dad lives here but have been away in Denver for a while. I came back for a family wedding and stopped in to try this place as I was familiar with the former diner that was here. I’m going to be honest but only out of love for the town. The food is great and lives up to what you want in a diner. I got the waffle and it was perfectly crispy, a lot of breakfast spots don’t get that crisp right so I was impressed. The thing for improvement though is the atmosphere. It’s half Christmas decor and half vintage signs (I visited in august). I have nothing against Christmas but there is no cohesive theme here and I think it does make it confusing, especially if you want to attract out of towners (which you should because that’s business too). There is no background music, lack of color, and overall it’s just a depressing vibe. The waitress was superb, kind, and quick but looked overworked/tired. I understand the “if it ain’t broke don’t fix it” mentality and that does apply here (this place would be fine as is) but I also value consistent improvement and growth. I suggest picking one theme for the place, sticking with it, and adding some background music and color life to give the place some life. It’s not costly and I think could greatly improve the energy of the space and employee morale. Just a friendly suggestion from someone who loves the area and wants local businesses and employees to thrive. It is the only spot in town for traditional diner vibe so why not make it...
