One of the first places I ate after moving to Richmond. No, it's not something fancy, but that's part of the experience. Drop ceiling is made out of advertising tiles that show businesses that have probably been defunct for a number of years. Outside patio seating is nice in the mornings. Breakfast is a great value, and pretty darned good, too. Nothing fancy, but after a night out in the fan hotspots, nothing hits the stomach like great diner breakfast food. Coffee, however, is not a strong point.\r

Easy to find, but parking along the street may not be the easiest. Everybody goes there; you'll see guys in suits alongside families with strollers, couples and regulars (especially the one guy with the suspenders.)
Pros: Kind of like stepping back into the past, tasty, good value
Cons: Parking, drinking too much the night before
