First time here, we had a delicious lunch! The chicken taco soup was really good. Also tried the grilled ham and Nick which was good, although I love me a good old fashioned hot ham and cheese, the addition of grilled onions and flavored mayo wasn't my favorite. We will definitely goback and try other entrees.
We were passing through and decided to stop by for burgers. The waitresses were great, offering recommendations and more time when needed. We started off with a hot fudge sundae, delicious, and finished it off with a burger and a wrap. We were pleased with the quality and low wait times. Would come back!
So far first impressions are great. I walked in and the smell of food instantly made my mouth water. People here are friendly and have no problems interacting and making suggestions. The prices are very reasonable for the the quality and quantity of food you receive. The food is served relatively fast for the amount of orders they were getting. The food here tastes as good as it smells too. Whats not to like.
I found this place on the map when I was searching for something locally owned to eat for lunch on our road trip. This was a perfect choice! Not to far off of the highway but just far enough you found what appeared to be a favorite among the locals. We enjoyed some really tasty burgers priced perfectly at just $3.50. I did opt to add garlic mayo but I wouldn’t next time because I didn’t taste it at all, but the burger really was delicious tho. We saved just enough room to enjoy a large 1 scoop waffle cone for $2.25 that hit the spot perfectly. I chose the butter pecan and it wasn’t that good but my husband got the strawberry cheesecake and it was delicious. The kids opted for cotton candy and they loved it. For the size it was a great way to finish our lunch. It was a cute little place with good food and a friendly staff. Next time we come across this highway we will be making a detour again to eat here.
I've been eating here over 40 years and always have had great food every time.
I passed through Peru and stopped at John's Place for something to eat with my girlfriend. The atmosphere was simple and pleasant, the waitress was very friendly and welcoming and the food was very good for the price.
Great people and great food. It really has a old-time diner feel to it. There were a lot of good options on the menu, including burgers, hot dogs, wraps, ice cream, shakes etc. The daily specials are really good, monday’s special was a …
I’ve lived in the area all my life (50 years) and this was my first time. Wow I can’t believe what I’ve been missing!! Will be going back!!
Love the Taco salad! Always fast service. The most welcoming staff. Just a small town diner. It's the best!
Always amazing service, fun atmosphere, and fresh authentic american menu choices... 10/10 reccommend.
