Nope… The food was not good. The coffee was horrible. Seriously it was horrible. I should have ran then… The service was pleasant but very slow. It is in the back of a junk shop(My GF says it is technically a flea market). OLD booths, counters, loud Seriously, there are better options close. We stopped at a bakery ½ a block away to get coffee for the day and WOW we should have eaten there!

Great small town lunch spot, located in the back of an antique shop. Food is good, nothing special, service the same. Great prices, lunch for 2 under $ 15.

I love this place, everything from the classic lunch counter ambiance to the antiques stacked all around the front of the store. You can watch people eat talk and simply slow down life for a little while. It’s all American comfort grill food, from great sandwiches, to hearty breakfasts. The milkshakes are the best I have ever had next to my mom’s, who consequently also loved this place too. Come to Englander’s for a moment from a past time, but stay to enjoy a simple slice of life.

A trip to Englanders is like a trip to a bygone era. A traditional lunch counter in every sense of the word. My great uncle was the pharmacist in the building in the 1960s when it was a drug store and the same lunch counter was still there. I love to imagine all of the conversations that happened there over the decades. Located in the back of an antique store, you can take a look at all of the treasures before taking a seat for a good old American meal. It’s basic, to the point, no-frills, grilled food. I’ve heard the lunch sandwiches are terrific, but I always go for the breakfast. Eggs, hash browns, toast, bacon, coffee. That’s all I need and Englanders does it right.

This place is old school greasy spoon(and i mean that in the best way)! They are one of the few places in town that have a flat top griddle and know how to use it. The selections are simple and to the point. Breakfast is awesome. They have one of the best cheesesteaks in town(just make sure to ask for REAL mayo, not miracle whip). Great milkshakes. It is hidden in the back of an antique shop which just lends to the home cooked, small town feel.

Good, inexpensive food at a lunch counter. What’s not to like? Basically, if it can be cooked on a flat-top or deep fried, they’ve got it. The Philly Cheese Steak that I had was really good; the boys liked their burgers; and my wife’s fish sandwich was huge and tasty. The staff is constantly busy — don’t expect long conversations or much personal attention during the lunch rush. They’re busy making your calorie bombs! Don’t expect anything fancy, and it’s kind of elbow-to-elbow at lunch. Still a good place to stop, and it’s fun to browse the antiques in the shop too.

Hopefully the food exceeds the antique experience by miles. Other than a few eye catchers in the cases past the cash register, there’s no reason to go to Englanders for vintage finds or antique treasurers. Don’t waste your time.

Based on previous reviews, we went anticipating surly service and good food. We got great service and so-so food. Everyone in the place was friendly and the service was fast, friendly and efficient. The short stack of pancakes is two, not three as the menu says. That was fine because the buckwheat pancakes must have been sourdough buckwheat cakes. I wasn’t thrilled with my two and would not have wanted three. The cakes were tangy like sourdough, which is fine but they weren’t described that way, so it was quite a surprise. The omelette eater in our group said it was mediocre. The atmosphere was a throw-back to the lunch counter diners, and it was lots of fun to roam through the antique store section after breakfast. We wouldn’t go again for the food, but it was a pleasant experience overall.

I went here for breakfast. The locals told me they make great buckwheat cakes. I am not a connoisseur of buckwheat cakes. I had them at the Amish breakfast over Autumn Glory and liked them. These were ok. If they are more authentic, then they are not my thing. I found the coffee to be a bit weak. I think this is a place one goes for the old-fashioned 5 and dime experience. The food is ok. I would definitely be open to trying lunch here sometime. ~Christine Zellers CEO, LBDC

Wonderful local spot for breakfast or lunch. Manager Dottie is a Garrett County Treasure! Locals love the buckwheat cakes! Milkshakes are the real thing!

The only place you NEED to easy when you’re in Oakland. Fantastic breakfast(pancakes, sausage, eggs, etc) and phenomenal lunch(burgers, sandwiches, fries, etc) just like mom used to make! Make sure you get a milkshake before you leave!

This place is hilarious. It’s like a giant antique store, but in the back is a small diner type of thing. Bacon and eggs. Toast. Coffee. Oatmeal. Sausage Gravy over Bisquits. You know… I think they have lunch there too — burgers, sandwiches etc. But if you look around the store you can find some pretty crazy stuff. Mostly old junk. But some people like that stuff. Look at the pictures I took of some of their merchandise.
