Well I’ve been trying to give this place the benefit of doubt, but the last 2 times have been terrible. The service is rude when you ask for something. Today December 19, my husband picked up food for us who are sick. All of it was cold. The food wasn’t ready after 43 minutes when they told us 30 minutes. I had a lumberjack omelette and it was way too over cooked and cold. The biscuits and gravy was extremely cold. Mind you we live less than a mile from this place there shouldn’t have to be cold food for take out especially when it was over 13 minutes late. But each time we go back to give this place the benefit of doubt the wait staff was rude as hell. Not the town diner with service with a smile. Today the women was rude to my husband. It needs to change, and the food is breakfast food how do you mess that up?

Charming little family restaurant in Freeland. As my son and I ate an early dinner, we heard the regulars talking to the waitresses and they were all on a first name basis. The food was good! My kiddo loved the peanut butter pie and also enjoyed watching the pet squirrel eating corn outside. Our waitress was attentive and nice. Recommend.

Think family friendly, home style meals with generous portions. That’s what riverside is and has always been. One of our rug rats had half of his food on the floor and spilled coffee, whilst the other one was doing laps around the tables, with no issues. The wait staff was patient and attentive. Couldn’t think of a more tolerant and welcome place. Highly recommended! Oh, and a great farmers omelette!!
We also picked up our ordered pies, an annual tradition that never disappoints. A staple of our family and a favorite of my son, who came in from California and couldn’t think to miss it during Christmas!!

We enjoyed a late breakfast here on the weekend. The parking lot was packed when we arrived, but we were able to be seated quickly. Our coffee was always full and hot, and we had a nice view in a booth by the windows looking out at the river. We both ordered omlettes, I had the veggie add bacon, and my husband had the lumberjack. Portions were large, and the food was very flavorful. The wait for the food to come out was a bit longer than expected, but we didn't mind. Will definitely be back to try other menu items!
