ReviewsYoull never have service like youll get it here! I have been a regular face at what is now the Rodney's Eat-Rite Diner at the corner of Highways PP & 30 for the last 14 years. Walking through that front door never fails to put a smile in my face. The friendly service, wonderful coffee, and the sweet smoky smell of Bacon in the air. Never have I found a place where the staff and the regular customers seem to meld more into one big family, than into a server customer situation. This ideal that the powers family has built into the very walls of there business was very well demonstrated this thanksgiving when they hosted a large Thanksgiving celebration for their families and employees at the diner. I didn't realize that they would be closing for the holiday, I didn't think I suppose. I went to the diner to have my usual at about 1:30 in the afternoon, and to my surprise walked in right in the middle of their festivities. I was turning around to leave when the owner, Shannon, ran over to me asking where I thought I was going. She then told me that if I wasn't family then no one was and invited me to join their dinner. I hung around, and throughout the day watched her and her son John who helps her run the Diner welcome one lonely customer after another who like me had nowhere else to go for the holiday in to join the fun. This was the first time in five years that I haven't eaten alone on Thanksgiving, and it is thanks to the welcoming atmosphere at Rodney's Eat-Rite that I finally remembered what it was like. Bring your family here, bring your friends here, this restaurant surely is a treasure!
