The best milkshakes ever. great hamburgers. friendly, efficient service. Fries could be better, use real potatoes instead of reconstituted potato and the food would be perfect. An absolutely fabulous 1948 diner.

Despite the name, this is an old-school diner, not a candy shop, serving breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Within walking distance of the Metropolitan Museum. Try the butter burger. Why butter? Why not? Butter makes everything taste better. #PigFeetWalkingTours
