This is a little diner in the center of town. It is clean and was rather busy when we were there. There are daily specials and breakfast is served all day until they close at 4 PM. The staff if very nice, helpful and professional. Unfortunately, several of the items on the menu weren't available because it wasn't summer yet.... More

Went here for lunch. Orange juice was good. Coffee and pancakes were OK. No VT maple syrup! My daughter had a club sandwich that was OK. It was served with crinkle-cut fries that I could have bought frozen myself at the grocery store. Staff was inattentive at best. The place is not in good shape physically - booths are very... More

The people were incredibly friendly, but everything was soaked in butter, as one might expect in a diner. The restaurant has seen better days, but they keep it clean. The food was incredibly cheap so perfect for a quick bite on the way to skiing or hiking in the region.

It's touch to find coffee before dawn in White River Junction, VT.

This is not a nice restaurant by any measure, its a diner that makes you feel like its still the 50s. I had breakfast, it was what one would expect from what was ordered. By and large eggs, home fries and a bagel (grilled to cover that this is not bagel-land!) is what it is. An air conditioner was roaring... More

Recently we stopped for breakfast at the Polka Dot Restaurant. The food was very tasty. Everything was prepared to order and the service was good. The interior needs some serious remodeling. The bathrooms are old and tired looking. The seats on the booths were very lumpy to say the least and not the most comfortable. If food is your only... More

The staff here were friendly and professional. The food and prices were average. It has a fun decor.

Here is your perfect old diner/ soda fountain memory - with reasonable good food. Inspiring? Years ago my wife and i sat here and came up with the idea for a wonderful small adventure tour business we ran for quite a while.
