Phillips is a diner stuck in the 1940's with it's dour decor, uncomfortable seating, and unflattering lighting. It's not kitschy- more depressing than anything else. Still, locals line up for up to an hour's wait on Saturday and Sunday mornings for breakfast. My guess is the popularity is from the donuts- they are handmade here and supposedly the best in the state. Still, the waitstaff is unfriendly and the regular's are quite cantankerous if you happen to sit at "their" table. My advice- grab a bag of jelly donuts to go :)
