Diner notes
5 out of 5
Spare-Time Grill is the definition of a hidden gem. From the outside alone, you can tell it’s something special — that cute, old-school diner vibe with the vintage sign just pulls you in. It feels nostalgic in the best way. The food absolutely delivered. The burnt goetta was the star of the plate — perfectly crispy on the outside with so much flavor in every bite. The eggs were fluffy, the home fries were seasoned and cooked just right, and those pancakes were golden, buttery perfection. Everything tasted homemade and comforting. But what really made it stand out was the service. Everyone was so genuinely kind and welcoming — we felt right at home the entire time. It’s the kind of place where you can tell they care about their customers. Great food, cozy atmosphere, and the sweetest staff. We’ll definitely be back again soon.

Good food cooked fresh. Good service. Clean and organized space. Reasonably priced. Limited seating though, not ideal for large groups, unless your just stoping for an ice cream and go.

I went for the very first time today with my husband. The atmosphere is so cute, it gives little ice cream shop but also old-timey Diner feel. The food was great my burger was made with fresh meat smashed on the grill with seasonings which is hard to find these days. It's hard to get fresh beef not frozen. Everybody was so polite and the cook changed his gloves between touching the raw meat and the vegetables go on it, proper cooking hygiene is hard to find these days also. Lunch was just a little over 20 bucks, can't beat it!
