Their burger selection, which include options like the classic MinerDunn Hamburger and the indulgent Bacon Cheeseburger, showcases a commitment to using high-quality ingredients; each patty is made from a generous 14 pounds of lean ground beef.

“ A wonderful treat after the 2022 blizzard before Christmas. We use to come to this place regularly for a good burger and nothing has changed. As far as diners go, this is as authentic as they come. If you order a "deluxe" burger it will get you fries and a sherbet treat (orange, vanilla, or swirl). My server was a sweetie and offered hospitality with a smile (and perhaps a little extra swirl to my sherbet because I don't remember it being that tall). UPDATE: Revisited and everything is business as usual and just as enjoyable of a visit as last time. I ordered the Homemade meatloaf that comes with mashed potatoes or fries and green beans. A fun and authentic old diner experience. ”
“ Old school burger joint serving homemade fries, homemade onion rings, homemade orange sherbet and yummy smash burgers before smash burgers were a ‘thing’!!! Did I mention HOMEMADE?!!!! ”
“ This is a great local diner! I ordered the Western Burger (Deluxe) The burger was big & delicious. Also ordered the Major Dunn... So good! The fries were great and the vanilla/orange swirl ice cream was great as well. Service and atmosphere was great and what you'd expect from a small local diner. We went during peak hours so they were busy and our order took about 15 minutes to get out to us after ordering but I'm ok with that especially with a busy locally ran spot. Highly recommend this diner if your looking for good burgers or a good meal in general. ”

“ Stopped here as I was in the area and impressed with the previous reviews, and boy, I wasn't disappointed! The service was great and the food was delicious! The value for your money is here as well! I would definitely stop here again if I'm in the area. ”
“ The atmosphere, decor, staff, food... everything about this place was fantastic. Had the Highland Burger with fries, cherry pie, and orange sherbet/vanilla ice cream twist. I’ll be coming here every time I’m back in town. Great place. ”
“ Delicious food and prices were very reasonable, especially in comparison to some other competing burger chains in the area. I loved their california soup!! Dine in seating was a little cramped( we were a group of 4 with a baby) but I liked the 1950s atmosphere,as it was authentic and not a recreated theme or something. ”
“ Great Burgers and awesome quick service at 1pm on a weds! The potato soup and miner dunn biggest burger is worth the money! Best burger i had in years! It lasted me two meals! ”
