Thee Diner

We arrived at Thee Diner this morning at 8 AM were served coffee and our order was taken. At 8:40 we had still not received our breakfast. The waitress returned and asked us what we had ordered again and she wrote it down again and said it will be right down. We waited five more minutes and still nothing while the table next to us which had ordered at the same time had finished their breakfast. We left and told her to forget it as we had an appointment to be at. She yelled into the cook to forget it so she evidently just put in the order. This is the second time we have had poor service at the diner and will not return or suggest it to our friends and family. I hope she did not think the money on the table was for her tip cause it was for the two coffees as that is all we received in 45 minutes!

Best ice cream in Cicero. Huge parking lot with plenty of outdoor seating. Highly recommended.

My husband and kids went here this past weekend for the 1^st time. We’ve driven past it many times and the parking lot is always packed. Our waitress was one of the nicest I’ve met. Food prices were reasonable. I had the open-​faced meatball sandwich which was decent. My husband ordered the cajun chicken sandwich that lacked some flavor since it was supposed to be cajun. We ordered the kids a chicken tender entrée to share. The tenders were really good and had a really good flavor. Their fries were great. Macaroni salad was solid. They were out of the apple crumb pie which was a bummer to the hubs.
They had an interesting display of jewelry on the counter. Pins made out of dominoes. Each had an unique painting on it. I picked out 4 for $ 10. Turns out our waitress’ sister makes them.
We later returned for their ice cream and milkshakes. Kids enjoyed their cherry milkshake and the other, blueberry milkshake. I had a yummy black raspberry soft serve.
We’ll be back again to try their other menu items like the reuben.

Went to the diner once it was just ok. But the ice cream stand is wonderful. Lots of choices, huge portions and reasonable.
They are only open in the good weather, and the lines can get long at times.

Plain diner, generally dumpy and yelling cheap! Specials board listed 4 entrees, including Italian Mac & Cheese (with sausage & tomato) and 2 «homemade» soups. Beef Vegetable Soup $ 1.75 a cup, seemed to be a mix of soft, canned veggies, poor beef chunks and a strong, lousy tomato base.
From the adequate-​looking menu — Turkey Club Wrap $ 5.50, had a good mix of deli turkey wraped around enough good bacon, plus lettuce, tomato and extra mayo. They didn’t grill it as was asked for.
Meatball Sub $ 4.75 presented a big plain roll holding 3 (should have been 4 to fit) medium-​sized misshaped balls with nothing added, so, no flavor. They were covered with plenty of cheese, but nearly no sauce! Both meals came with broken chips and a pickle spear. The waitress was deadpan and unfriendly.

Cute little diner a few miles off the highway across the high school. Very friendly and accommodating and perfect for a casual breakfast or lunch. Indoor seating — about a dozen booths. Outside off the parking lot they run an ice cream shop with a bunch of selections. I’d return.
