Probably the best place to get breakfast in all of berks county. Lovely little down to earth diner. Staff are always beyond friendly and food is made while you get to watch and is always delicious. I use to be a regular till I changed jobs I defenitly miss my weekly mornings spent here. There omelets are to die for and I highly recommend.

My boyfriend and I tried Letterman's per a recommendation from his coworker. It was a 50 minute drive but 100% worth it ! So many good things on the menu. Can't wait to go back and try something different! The portions are GINORMOUS. It is cash only, they don't have a sign up which is the only thing against them. A cute little, hole in the wall diner.

If you love good food, good company and people this is the place to come. This little train car breakfast restaurant has it all. Yes it is very tight quarters; but, the conversation and the food will make you forget just how close you are sitting. The portions are huge so being your appetite! You get more than your monies worth here. The hardest part about coming here is deciding what to get. Everything is fresh and hot. Orders are made on a first come first served. If you are in a hurry ... forget it. If you want a seat be early or be prepared to stand until a seat becomes available. This is a unique experience that must be enjoyed. You won't be disappointed just be patient.
