The Old Town Guide

"An Old Town diner staple for a casual breakfast, lunch, or dinner since 1973. Nookies has the familiar diner options not so concisely laid out on a menu with approximately 700 pages. You can eat everything from eggs and potatoes to a club sandwich to meatloaf or beef stroganoff. That said, we prefer Nookies for brunch - and we particularly like the crunchy French toast, battered and fried in cornflakes." - sam faye, adrian kane
