The waffle was at first undercooked. We alludes it to the waitress, and she immediately fixed it by serving us a perfectly prepared new one. All else is just as good as traditional American breakfast should be. It was a wonderful dining experience!

Cutest mom and pop shop style diner around. Had some oldies throwbacks playing, which made for a cute and fun atmosphere. The menu is a bit pricey for a diner, but the food is well worth it and had a slew of delicious options. Definitely recommend for brunch or lunch or just a yummy casual dining experience. The staff was super friendly, and the bathrooms had beautiful flowers, complimentary lotion and smelled very nice.

A very very solid and reliable breakfast spot in my Ann Arbor rotation. They have a lot of unique dishes, like Apple Raisin bread soaked and fried served with ham or an Italian omelet with marinara, love to see some breakfast creativity. The kitchen honored my request to make the pecan waffles into pecan pancakes and it was AMAZING. I love their baked apples! Service is always good and they are great about coffee refills.

A great small local Diner in Ann Arbor. Wasn't too busy on a Saturday morning around 8:30am with most seats available ordered take out and food was quick and delicious. It was 28 after two omelets and tax which seemed a tad pricey but it was the convenience for me.

Gosh frickin darnit I'll be darned if this grub spot ain't the diggity dopest in town. If you want a grade A American diner experience, you better get your behind on down to the Village Kitchen of Ann Arbor. They'll take good care of you here with some unique and classic food options. The coffee is unlimited and so are the good times, you won't regret choosing to eat breakfast at this fine establishment.

Awesome little gem in West Ann Arbor, really gives a good picture of Ann Arbor and has awesome miruls on the walls of iconic places in AA. The food here is portioned generously and all at a fair price. The staff here are super accommodating and great! Would definitely recommend this place for travels or locals!
