Amherst Diner is a favorite for the locals. Service is always quick and friendly. We usually go here for breakfast, they have a large selection for breakfast and it's always good. You will not leave here hungry, they have very generous portion sizes. Don't expect anything fancy, but that's part of what's great about this diner. The staff gets to know you, and treats you like one of their own. The daily specials are always a nice addition to the standard menu.
The Amherst Diner has excellent food with reasonable prices. The atmosphere is that of a mom and pop place. Most of the servers are very nice and very open for conversation. We are regulars now and if they see us coming, they already have our coffee poured. The only reason I gave them 4 stars is there is one server (Christine) that is quite rude to people. For example, someone seated themselves and she basically yelled at them and then told the next table about it and didn't even lower her voice. I have even heard people mention they wouldn't be back because of her. However, don't let that deter you. It is well worth your time.
Food was pretty good not bad price. The cabbage soup was pretty good I got open face roast beef although she brought me roast beef dinner which is now what I ordered. Wife got Ruben which she said was pretty good. Daughter got country fried steak it came with brown gravy Not what you would expect with country fried steak. Son in law got cheese burger said it was pretty good. Service was pretty good she was attentive and brought me some bread for my roast beef to make it an open face like I ask for. Decor was a little dated but for a dinner it wasn't too bad. I would eat here again.
Food was great. Prices very reasonable. Service was good. Will definitely return for breakfast in the near future. Nothing bad to say about this restaurant.
Along our travel route and knowing we'd be needing breakfast, I made plans to eat here while I was still in Oregon. I wasn't disappointed. Chatted with several of the locals and took a recommendation from one. Service was prompt and attentive and the food was good. Biggest impression was the value. Nothing fancy, for sure but a solid spot worth trying out.
Just wanted a light dinner and was very pleased. They have a 1/2 sandwich special with two sides for $4.99. Besides the 1/2 Rueben and the potato salad that is pictured, I also had a cup of creamy rice chicken soup that was nice and hot and good! This is one of the BEST light meals I have ever had! The service was also very good and will definitely be back again!
We were trying to go to "Farmer Boy's" for breakfast, but this restaurant showed up in its location. I'm guessing they are one and the same. Solid diner pretty much in the middle of nowhere. You're probably stopping by here because it is one of the few restaurants surrounding the apple picking orchard. Cheap food, good portions, and quality is fine. Standard fare. Nothing special about the place, but it was clean and service was good.
