Jefferson Diner

Good hot coffee, friendly service. This isn’t fast food, though it’s served quickly. It is prepared with care by people who know their way around a grill. Love breakfast there, and enjoy lingering over a book while drinking coffee and conversing with people at the counter. If you remember the way a Diner was back when, then this is your place. If you need double skim milk, and a vegan tofu hash, then look elsewhere. This is a real R.I. Gem. Try the grilled blueberry corn bread!

The food here is really good-too bad the same can’t be said for the service. Once an order is taken there is no sense of urgency in getting it cooked and prepared—the cook would rather watch TV and talk with patrons than concentrate on getting your meal prepared in a reasonable amount of time. It doesn’t matter whether you come for breakfast or lunch;service and attitude are always nonchalant. We no longer come here for lunch because it takes too long to get our food and then gobble it down.
