Alice's Restaurant

Always looking to try something new (or at least new to me), I decided to check out Alice’s Restaurant today.
I tend to prefer supporting local non-corporate businesses, so this funky little “Mom ’n’ Pop’s” diner was just what I needed. The shop is a veritable museum of old Coca Cola memorabilia, the walls covered in old Coke marketing goodies — which is funny when you see the sign on the front window announcing “We Proudly Serve… Pepsi”.
I read the backstory once on their website, but it seems that website is now defunct.
To the best of my recollection, they used to serve Coke (or planned to), but the local Coke distributor wouldn’t give them the time of day, whereas the Pepsi distributor was more than happy to give them the respect they deserve… and thus a Coke memorabilia shop serving Pepsi.
Right on! The clientele I observed were mostly retirees and appeared to be a “first name basis” of local loyals.
I ordered the Chicken Sandwich served with fries and added a cup of today’s soup, Bean & Bacon.
The soup was very clearly homemade with nice chewy bites of bacon.
The sandwich was fair enough fare; the fries were from frozen but good.
I’ll try their breakfast next time. As for the service, the young woman who served me was really nice, smiling, attentive, accommodating and made my first visit to this restaurant a welcoming experience.
Five stars; wish more wait staff were like her!

This was my first time here.
I was pleasantly surprised with the service and the atmosphere.
The menu was just what I would want from a Breakfast and Lunch restaurant.
I had the special that was a sausage omelet with cheese.
The went heavy on the cheese but everything else was what I expected.
Ill be back for sure, as I read the Patty melt was what many other recommended.

This place is a great little restaurant, especially if you need a menu that has plenty of inexpensive options.
The food we ordered was really good and the portion was just right.
The food came before we started thinking about it and it didn't feel like it was overpriced.
The atmosphere is warm and inviting.
We'll be back!
