    Biscuit and gravy as big as my head! Tasty gravy that is so creamy and not too salty. Scrambled eggs nice and dry. Huge pieces of bacon. Delicious!!

    Hubs had some loaded hash browns... And oh, boy, were they ever loaded! Lots of magical pig animal and veggies... Came with a yummy pancake.

    It was busy on a Saturday morning, but we were able to grab two seats at the counter. Service was super friendly and efficient.

    You will not leave hungry. Prices are very reasonable. Our new favorite breakfast stop on the way to Seattle.

    Came here on a Friday morning and it was a little busy.  We did get a seat quickly and the service was great!  Our waitress was extremely friendly and cheerful.

    I ordered the country fried steak and found the hash browns to be rather soggy.  I do prefer them a bit crispier.  The steak itself was okay with some stringy parts inside.  Flavor-wise a little more seasoning would be nice.  The gravy was thick and chunky but I did like that.  

    I liked that I had the choice of getting a pancake and it wasn't anything to write home about but very doable.

    Would definitely come back after a hiking or camping trip.

    My wife had been wanting to introduce me to this place for several months.  The best advice I can give you is to come with your appetite!!!  
    I decided to go for the biscuit and gravy.  Notice that I wrote biscuit as in the singular.  You do not need 2 biscuits as these are monstrous in size.  This came with the usual eggs and bacon for a meal.  They did ask if I wanted hashbrowns to go along with the meal and I wisely turned that down.  
    This monster biscuit is probably more like 3 normal biscuits at a chain diner.  
    The wait staff is amazing and friendly.  They gave enough attention without going overboard.  We didn't want for filling up our drinks.
    The place is busy, so just expect that you will have to wait to get seated.  Of course the best things are worth waiting for and this is one of those gems.

    Diner on the main street in Arlington WA. This place seems to be a local favorite, as it was busy on an early Saturday morning for breakfast. The diner has basically two rooms, and not a whole lot of space. They got some cool retro movie posters on the walls as decor.

    Menu consists of the usual American diner staples: toasts, pancakes, bacon, omelettes, and such. I got a ham and cheese omelette which also came with a small bowl of fruit and a pancake. It was a hearty breakfast and tasted pretty decent. Pancake and omelette were both fluffy enough. Whole meal was $12 + tip.

    I ordered the California Benedict. It was over cooked eggs with burnt bacon. Perfect if you like no yolks. Very thin avovado slices drowned in hollandaise sauce. Lots of hashbrowns.
