MENU

The menu includes something for everyone with burgers, wraps, sandwiches, salads, milkshakes and hearty breakfast options. Breakfast is served all day on Saturday and Sunday.

ATMOSPHERE

An old fashioned ’50s diner, complete with black and white checkered flooring, a soda bar with retro red barstools, and heavy doses of nostalgia hanging on the walls.

OUR FAVORITE FOOD/PRICE

I loved the hangover deluxe ($8.95), a homemade biscuit topped with bacon, fried chicken, scrambled eggs and cheddar cheese smothered in sausage gravy and served with potatoes. The flavor was certainly worth the calories and extra time I earned at the gym. Nick’s take on the classic Reuben ($8.75) was also delicious with the right combination of thin sliced corned beef, melted Swiss and Russian dressing on crispy rye toast.

KID FRIENDLY

Nick’s “Little Boppers” menu boasts fun for the under 12 set with options like Mickey pancakes for breakfast. Other selections include classic kid fare, such as grilled cheese sandwiches served with choice of fries, sweet tots, or fresh fruit.

REASON TO GO

The unique dining atmosphere inside is reason enough, but the tasty and affordable food really makes it worth a visit.

SERVICE

Service was quick and friendly. Our meals appeared within minutes of ordering, and our staff experience was pleasant with both our server and the cashier at the register.

NOISE LEVEL

Moderate. An authentic juke box is on hand to play the oldies, but not too loud.
