Ketan SampatMay 17, 2014Very nice place. Good breakfast options. Warm biscuit with real butter! Simply Devine!
This place has been around for 50 years for a reason! Great American classics, hot fudge sundae is awesome.
Ryan EickApril 26, 2021Cute spot, very friendly staff, and good diner food. I wish I was able grab a milkshake.
Jordan TJanuary 9, 2015Get the grilled cheese with bacon! :) Amazing onion rings! My boyfriend loves their sweet tea!
Drew JordanSeptember 27, 2012Absolutely the best food I've had in a while. Trucker from TN and I feel like I'm home. A must stop for anyone- Good basic eats and some of the best milkshakes in town. Foursquare users get a free milkshake for their first check in! Read more
Jason BrooksFebruary 20, 2012***Note - there is a special for first time visitors. Free milkshake. BUT you have to purchase something, which is not indicated in the special.***
Randall BowmanJanuary 19, 2014With breakfast they have great local NY style bagels from Cupertino's.
Syd ViciousDecember 20, 2014For being a local shop I was pretty disappointed in their food. Friendly staff but mediocre meal. The shakes aren't worth the price and the 'ham' on their breakfast platters is just cheap deli meat.
We have a green hair guy here that said he will bring any one who comes to the dairy bar today some much needed luck
john malloryDecember 20, 2017I'm going Dec 23, 2017 for the first time, and excited about the free milkshake !- Best breakfast in town. Try the grits and biscuits and gravy
Robert MJune 28, 2013If you don't like your burger cooked well done (hockey puck) don't bother ordering one. Asked the manager for a medium cooked burger and was flat denied (Grim Face). What a dick!!!
Daniel ThomasOctober 7, 2012Don't get the fried sardines and tomato dish if you like fried sardines or tomato.
The Dairy Bar is bomb! Obey the cow and come get a shake!
