Spillway Diner Reviews

service and food has improved drastically over the past 6 months. i was personally served by the server and they provided top notch service, very nice and attentive. the Ambiance was also very homey and "diner" like. love this place!!

Had the MVP breakfast with country ham. Food arrived hot and fresh . Grits were smooth and creamy, ham cooked perfect,hash browns loaded veggie in the hash browns cooked perfect not to crunchy nor too soft . The breakfast was on point . Service was fast and efficient. Quiet place and good food to get your day started . Will recommend 10 out of 10 !!!!!

Decided to give this local place a taste for lunch. Our server Shiretha ?sp? was excellent. Very friendly and kept us up to date on our order as they were having issues with one of the fryers. Only issue we had was the fried chicken was over cooked. Will definitely be back to try their breakfast.

They say a picture is worth a thousand words and the pancake photos I've seen from Spillway Diner always had me salivating. So I decided to make the long drive after church to try them. I'm the type of person who looks at a menu and decide what I want well before I go, yet get to a place and look at the menu again like I might change my mind. Did the same thing today but went ahead and ordered the buttermilk pancakes with scrambled eggs and bacon. While waiting on my food, my coffee, when it came out, had the aroma of liquid gold (yeah I don't know what gold smells like but I imagine it was this). I so enjoyed my coffee. I equally enjoyed my food, which came out quickly. I like restaurants that use real and not liquid eggs. I could tell the grill was seasoned as my eggs required no seasoning. The bacon was good. Would have preferred it just a tad more crispy but it wasn't a deal breaker for me. The pancakes are like the kind my granny used to make. Fluffy in the middle with crispy edges. I could only eat one as I ate the bacon and eggs first and was full! Service was good. I believe the manager was my server. He was good. I am so glad I made the trip to try them. They messed around and gave me one of those frequent diner punch cards. So now I feel like I owe it to them to earn that free meal lol! -- at Spillway Diner.

I had the bone-in pork chop platter grilled, offered fried as well). (+2 eggs and crispy hashbrowns) They were cooked to perfection and seasoned just right! I am sensitive to salt and they were perfect! The owner and other staff are very friendly. It's obviously a place locals go and is disguised as a gas station dive but is so much more! The buttery toast is thick cut and plenty of jelly in the table. The coffee was good too! We will be back!

First and foremost, I need to mention the coffee - it's really good diner coffee. Too often I've gotten burnt or weak or just outright bad coffee at diners, but the coffee at Spillway is solid. The menu has all the typical breakfast staples and lots of options to satisfy just about anyone. I went with the Super Bacon and Cheese Omelette with a side of hashbrowns and a biscuit. The omelette was packed full or crispy bacon quite tasty, but the hashbrowns were very so so. The star of my meal ended up being the biscuit. I don't even typically eat biscuits, but this one was fresh, warm, flaky, and scrumptious. Probably the best biscuit I've ever had. The prices are reasonable and the service is fast and friendly too.

First time to eat here. We had breakfast, the menu here is quite large, service is fast and friendly, this was the absolute best "Diner" experience we've had in this area, we've driven by countless times and really just missed it. Great food and plenty of it. If you haven't tried these folks you are really missing something. Prices are reasonable, especially for the amount of food you get. They also have takeout and delivery. 5 easy stars from me ! Give Spillway Diner a try ! You won't regret it.
