This place was just what we were looking for on a rainy night. We didn't realize, but we walked in about 20 min before close (which I never do. I never walk into a restaurant so close to their closing time). Our server was sweet and helpful - she took the extra time to make our meal special. Everything was tasty and the pie is a must. There were so many options! My only complaint is that we didnt realize it was cash only until we walked up to the register (where there was a small sign that you wouldn't see just walking in) - they should have the servers say something before the order is taken....or get a credit card machine. Thankfully, there was an ATM about a block down the street - unfortunately it was raining Haha. Oh well - still a comfort food and nice people kind of place.

Great service, diverse menu selections, and I was happy to see chicken and waffles on the menu. Home style cooking, large portions, very reasonably priced. Didn’t have dessert but I’m coming back for the rice pudding. Not a big deal but bring cash, they don’t accept credit cards.

Cozy spot. As for decor, nothing spectacular, but that is what makes the place charming and oh-so-American. This is the kind of place with LOTS of regulars. Attentive service. Large, non-fuss portions. I was underwhelmed by my fish sandwich, but my dads chef salad looked great (although huge). I have this place 4 stars more for the feel of the place and the friendly service than for the food. A good overall “diner” experience. Apparently founded in 1937. Lots of seating.

Delicious food. I especially like the Hochie dogs and the breakfasts. The steaks are very good and reasonably priced. I have been here many times over the years and have always enjoyed it. The quality of the ingredients is top notch. Great staff too. Highly recommended. Bring cash - no credit cards accepted.

My parents used to eat here when the were stationed at Carlisle in the 70s. You can't beat the value! Our family of 6 ate breakfast for only $23.06 plus tip! I had two eggs and toast, husband and little daughter shared chocolate chip pancakes and bacon, boys shared chocolate chip pancakes and home fries, older daughter had a waffle. Service was excellent!

This little place is amazing. The owners and servers are the nicest people. On top of the service, the food is always good. Omelettes, french toast, pancakes, great. And you can't go there and not get a Hot-Chee dog.

Please remember that LOOKS CAN BE DECEIVING. While this location is not much to look at, the atmosphere and food make it a great place to go! Home of the infamous "Hatchii Dog", this restaurant is owned and operated by a local Greek family; several generations work here daily. There is still an original soda fountain in operation ( vanilla Coke is AWESOME), several booths, and a lunch counter where you can watch the dogs being made. Through an opening in the original restaurant, under the archway, is the side of the Hamilton that serves alcohol. Each day there are daily specials, including homemade soups and sandwiches, along with a breakfast, lunch, and dinner specials. As already started, the decor is outdated, the restaurant is almost bustling, but the Hatchii Dogs with fries and gravy is so worth it!

I came here because my coworkers raved about how this restaurant had some good food. I came here with a friend of mine. The food was okay. It wasn't terrible, but it wasn't good either. What got me was the service. It was absolutely awful. I've never had a waitress treat us like we were the most disgusting things there. She practically threw the silverware towards us, didn't greet us, said, "what do you want?" and then pretty much threw the plate of food on the table too. When we had to check out, they told us that they didn't accept cards. Who doesn't accept cards at this day and age? We could barely pay since we didn't have much cash on us at that time. While we were trying to find more cash, this woman behind the cashier was smirking at us. Absolutely awful. I will not recommend this place no matter how long it's been there or how "traditional" it is. The staff there should be replaced. Even then, I will never go there again.
