"Quality and cleanliness has decreased. Bathroom was gross. Out of latkes, which are on the menu in two separate locations. Wasn't notified until I followed up halfway through my partial meal, server offered to comp the shake for the inconvenience. The milkshakes are fun, but way overpriced. The cupcake and brownie on the shake were hard, stale and inedible. Kids liked the avocado toast."

"The food, service, and atmosphere at The Daily Diner were all amazing! We drove 45 minutes to try the diner and we were not disappointed. The food came out freshly prepared and just like we ordered. Our server, Denise was amazing. She was very attentive and made sure that we were enjoying our meal. We definitely recommend the diner and will be back!"

"I was in the area having stayed at The Haven of the Wild. I wanted to stop for breakfast before heading out, this diner was on the way and did not disappoint! The home fries were some of the best I've ever had! My omelet was nicely made, and even the coffee was delicious. Some diners fail on the coffee... The staff were all super friendly. I think what made everything extra special was sitting at the counter and engaging in conversation with Vietnam Veteran, John. John eats there every day, which is a testament in itself to the food and staff. I wish I didn't live 4 hours away, or I'd be there every day as well! No pictures to share as I was too busy living in the moment."

"The cooks messed up one of our orders (a few times before bringing the plate out) and the manager and server were so nice! They comped the dish and even gave us some free cupcakes. The food was good, atmosphere was friendly and staff was really sweet."

"Daily Diner is a fantastic spot with an amazing milkshake selection and a very creative food menu. The vibe is clean and modern, making it a great place to meet up with friends or family. It is located in a convenient strip mall plaza with easy parking. The prices are a bit on the higher side. For example, three milkshakes with a tip came to about $40 (a few years ago) but the quality is definitely there. It’s worth the visit for a special treat or fun brunch!"
