Arnold Palmer

Snug Harbor is exactly the kind of diner that you want to be able to walk to for breakfast on a weekend morning. Fortunately for me, I can!

Snug Harbor may be the only diner where I don’t always order coffee with breakfast. Their Arnold Palmers are the best of the best. Fresh squeezed lemonade topped with brewed iced tea. Served like a black and tan. Delicious.

The same friendly servers can be found each week, taking care of you at the counter, at one of the few booths or outside on the shaded patio.

Snug Harbor is well liked for their blackberry pancakes when the season is right. I pretty much stick with the huevos rancheros, I have strayed a few times and the huevos are the way to go.

My wife likes the 2+2+2 with pancakes, egg whites and bacon. Snug Harbor knows how to do bacon how she likes it, a little on the chewy side.

Snug Harbor is no frills, and that’s what is nice about it. Good prices too, around $20 for two to eat breakfast. Sometimes a bit of a wait depend on when you show up. Don’t forget the patio too, I didn’t even know it was there the first few times I went.
