Instant food poisoning. Diarrhea and vomiting for days. Not a very sanitary place. By any means. I should have known I'd get sick. Rudest owner I have ever met. Treats her employees and her patrons horribly. She literally wears the same clothes daily. JUST DISGUSTING. HORRIBLE EXPERIENCEKid-friendliness: DO NOT BRING YOUR KIDS HERE.

I had hard boiled eggs on my eggs Benedict and over cooked and burned home fries. The cook was aware of the poor result of his cooking and was ok with sending to a customer. Shame on him for sending a poorly cooked meal to a customer with no regard to how badly cooked. Where is your pride? Do you care what you send out of the kitchen? Don't eat on a weekend......they don't care what they send out.

We ordered for the first time recently since under new ownership. I was definitely a longtime fan for years of Whistle Stop, when it was in business by the previous owner. We decided on take out for lunch on 12/01. I ordered an omelet with cheese, onions, mushrooms. My partner got a cheeseburger & fries. The person who took our order over the phone sounded friendly & told me it would be ready in about 15-20 mins (accurate estimate). When we pulled up, we noticed many vehicles parked, so it was a busy Friday. Upon entering, we saw several customers, both at tables & the counter, yet no employees. We stood at the counter awaiting service to pick up our order, when a staff appeared from in back, after a few mins of waiting. The young lady seemed polite & rang us up at the register. It cost under $20 for the order, which was reasonable. It wasn't until we got back home & opened our to go containers, that we noticed how they forgot about the french fries, which I asked for with my fiancés burger. I know it's a small mistake, but it still was one, so I called to bring it to their attention. They offered to make some, but unfortunately we didn't have the time to go back. She did apologize, so I was glad at least for that. We also noticed after a few bites that the burger was not medium well, but more medium rare (we had requested "medium well"). However, my omelet was very good & it came with rye toast (bread type is customer's choice) as well as home fries, which I gave to my fiancé seeing as they forgot his fries with the cheeseburger. Overall, our experience was decent & we will try again. Hopefully next time we'll get everything we ordered & our food will be cooked to our preference, if offered specifics (like with how the burger was cooked). Makes me miss the way it used to be, but hopefully we'll grow to really enjoy the Whistle Stop with new owners. Worth a try! First impression could have been a bit better though to be honest.Kid-friendliness: Mickey mouse pancakes.Wheelchair accessibility: Wheelchair ramp located at the entrance.

I have ordered here for years, I called this morning to order take out and was told they don’t do take out on the weekends. The place is a bit small, and tables fill up quickly, we also just like to order and sit and enjoy our meal at home like we have been doing for years. There is also no place where I have seen this information updated unless I have missed it. Some people can’t leave their houses at that. I hope in the future this will change, for the sake of those who can’t sit in small crowded place, or can’t leave their home. I also think that they could have been a little more polite about telling someone who has ordered there for years they no longer do take out on weekends.I’m just In shock guess. As for the questions below I did not order any because take out is not an option on weekends.

A great place for breakfast and Lunch. For having such a small team, the food is great! They really need more wait staff as one person can only attend to so many people when the place is to capacity.Overall great place!

Very nice little diner spot!Service is very friendly and helpful, not super fast, but quick enough, and the food is well worth the wait!! Very filling and delicious!! 😋👌The new renovations to the place came out really nice too! Kept the old school vibe to the place, but it's still fresh and new looking, and very clean!

It's so nice to have a real diner back in town. The place is immaculate! Totally handicapped accessible. The breakfast is great and the service is very nice. I can't wait until they have fish and chips on Fridays.

So, I gave this place three chances. Each time I watched the owner's friends get served before me even though I was there before them. The final and last time I was there, I waited 90 minutes. I also had a child with me. At this point, a customer came over and told my family that the owner makes people wait if they (the customers) get annoyed (this was 60 minutes into it). Mind you, we had kept to ourselves, but obviously probably looked agitated due to the wait and due to a starving child that had also had enough of the nonsense. I think all the good reviews must be from good friends because I really wanted to make this a regular for our family, but every time (a span of over 3 years) it led to disappointment. The food certainly is not worth it nor is the service or the snarky buddies of the owner. Rose 32 Bread is right up the road and it blows this place out of the water. Go there instead.
