This was a great place to fly in for lunch. The staff was friendly, the atmosphere can’t be beat. Food was a touch bland but not bad. I would have added just a little seasoning to the onion rings and hamburger but hubby loved his dish, forget what it was called but it was a brat. I would definitely recommend going if you are in the area and live airplanes and history. We will definitely be flying in again soon. Maybe even next week when we go flying again.
This place is so cute! I love the aesthetic inside and outside, it’s very retro. Seeing private planes take off and land right outside your booth is an added bonus. The service was good, food was okay. It’s nothing special- but it’s very affordable, so you get what you pay for. I’d definitely come here at least once!
Cool diner done in a 40’s era design. We got to see some WWII era planes flying in and out! Food was good! Have to try the homemade onion rings!
