Merry-Ann's Diner - Champaign

The staff was wonderful and very efficient for the crowd that came and went. I highly recommend getting something with the engraving if you like white breakfast engraving it was the best restaurant engraving I had in years. I had the breakfast stack and a chai tea salad so good! The chili cheeses are also great. We're just going by chance and going in and I recommend you go!

I spent the majority of my day with my dog in the local Vet, so I was looking for somewhere near to eat. When I was in Merry Ann's, I was greeted right away. I went to the counter to let the man know I've never been there and I wasn't sure to sit down. He was very polite and told me to choose a seat and quickly came by. As many of the other reviews say, there were only a few workers. But the service was very fast. The atmosphere felt secret and comfortable, I felt that I took lunch in a family member's house. I ordered a number one and replaced the toast for French toast, the portions were decent size. Overall the food was 10/10, service was 10/10. If I'm ever back, I'll stop again!

The interior reminded me of diner's in the 70's with all the tables around the open kitchen. James was quick and efficient with bringing the food and the manager helped us pick our meal. The burgers and fries were cooked perfectly. I could wax poetic about the fries. They were just the right amount of crunch with potato goodness in the middle. The prices were very reasonable and portions were perfect.

Very hospitable and friendly service, especially the waitress. Great quantity for the price, love the country fried steak, it was juicy and crispy! Love it's for nightlife.

If you are looking in the city bright and early and to get a good breakfast, this is the place. This small, old-fashioned diner has limited seating, but is very fast, so customers are in and out quite fast. You can perform every day or night in our performance. We had breakfast today and it was amazing. The waitress kept my coffee full and knew many of the males with names as they came to eat. I definitely come back here.
