NORMS Restaurant

Food was made quickly and blew us away with the quality.
Server was friendly but distracted and had a charming timeless atmosphere.
Highly recommended for a nice meal when everything else is closed at 2AM

Okay...here we go... Diner/Coffee shop along the lines of Denny's or Bob's Big Boy only better. Beware...usually rather busy, and you'll likely have a short wait... I've been to several locations.
All equally good.
Well prepared meals at reasonable prices.
ALL MEAL PERIODS. This most recent visit was a result of their Friday menu. A fish and chips special.
Most places these days charge $18 and up for a comparable plate.
Norm's regular price is $13.99 and theirs comes with soup AND salad.
(do the New England clam chowder) BUT, THE BEST PART... For a limited time, on Friday nights, they have a two for one special...
That's two complete meals for $13.99, AND they throw in a dessert 🍨 as well. WAY MORE THAN A GREAT VALUE!!! Everything was hot, well prepared and delicious!!! All served efficiently with a smile!!! Lilia was our server.
A well trained gem!!! Polite, friendly, appeared a bit shy at first, but she had the best server mechanics I've seen in a while.
(Im a retired Hospitality Director.
I know a good server when I see one) She was one!!! Venue was bright and clean and appeared well run. The 4 Star "Atmosphere" score was not the result of the venue, but rather its location surroundings.
It's in a "downtown" area, and it occasionally has a propensity for homeless encounters. Not under the restaurant's control. Take that into consideration. At any rate, still WELL WORTH THE VISIT!!! Pictures; I started eating the soup and then the fish before I thought about it. Beverages; Arnold Palmer and a pomegranate lemonade.

I forgot how good the pancakes are here.
They also actually add peppers and onions to their potatoes but they are not always consistently cooked but still good.
Anyhoo, back to the pancakes.
They are pretty big, soft & fluffy.
I got the Lumberjack special & I was stuffed.
