I’ve eaten here 3 times and I’m very happy with the food , service and prices. The food is home style cooking. The service is excellent, Sherry, Missy and Kim are very good in making sure you are taken care of. The check with you to be sure you are happy. Ernie the cook makes some of the best French toast and pancakes. To be honest about it he cooks everything great. I recommend wooden Spoon to everyone, especially my friends. Like I said earlier, the service excellent, food is home style and the price is good.

Awesome food!! Obsessed with the “Italian style” omelette, very good and big portion size. I also got the iced mocha, which was great! All-day breakfast. Stopped by on the way to the train museum and it definitely filled me up.

We stumbled on this diner in mid morning after visiting the Sherwin Williams paint store next door. We didn’t think they would mind us dressed in our paint spattered clothes, and they didn’t. We had a great brunch, my wife had a garden omelette with hash browns and I had one of the daily specials, 3 fried eggs, sunny side up, sausage, home fries and buttered wheat toast. Delicious. We were now ready to go back to painting our house Showstopper red.

Was in Plant City yesterday and drove by decided to turn around and stop for breakfast and absolutely enjoyed it. I hate when they brown or burn my eggs, NOT here, cooked to perfection. Eggs was absolutely delicious, grits- creamy and amazing. Wifes pancakes was so light and fluffy, incredible! This place is the place to go, we will have to go back and try lunch next time.

Everything was great but the ice or the water need a water system the lemon didn't work. The breakfast was fantastic though I really enjoy the home fries. But I will definitely be back again our waitress was superb.

Wow...possibly one of the nicest steaks I've ever seen for Steak & Eggs. Service is outstanding, fast and courteous and they ensure everything need is met during your dining experience. This little diner epitomizes small town America warmth and value.
