The best local place I have ever eaten!!I canβt take a picture of my emptied plate because it all was so good and I finished it all π.This family owned business will offer you food with the taste of home. You will find here local hospitality and great breakfast service!Cheers to the ladies that work here!
I love home cooked food. The service was fast our waitress was amazing. However my home fries were cold and hard I went there because they serve waffles, except that day they didnt have waffles. Some of their prices are high.
Went for breakfast. Eggs, toast, bacon, and French toast. All was excellent, and the atmosphere was friendly, as a local diner should be. Highly recommended.
Always good. Everything is made with love. Great place that never will disappoint.
Wonderful back home atmosphere, staff is very knowledgeable and courteous, fantastic prices for the portions and love that the food is cooked in the open right around you so we could smell our food as it was being cooked. For our first time eating here and it was my sweetheart birthday, we were both very happy and satisfied! We plan on going back again for sure! Love these smaller diners, they truly understand hospitality! Well done!!
Good standard of the grill food. Nothing adventurous. Dont expect alot of fresh veggies. But good basics, fried potatoes, grilled cheese, eggs, omelet, and other sandwich items. Courteous service, reasonable price. Only breakfast and lunch.
Great atmosphere, pleasant staff but my food was cold.
Tuna melt, Reuben, hot dog and sauerkraut, triple decker sandwich, egg and olive sandwich and endless coffee.
Want a great breakfast for a great price, go here, simply amazing.
It depends on the day you go here how good the food is. Monday through Friday it is way better. They have great omelets. French toast is thin. I like a thick cut french toast. I dont like the sausage links here but bacon is good. Renee the server is always good and perfessional.
Always liked the service and food just like home.
My wife and I spent a couple months looking for the perfect breakfast spot in our area; we went through some duds but finally ended here at the Iron Kettle.The absolutely best staff in the world; friendly, fast and genuinely warm hearted people.The prices are almost too reasonable to believe for the quality of food. (Try the chicken cordon bleu)Cant recommend them enough!
Omelettes are out of this world. Never had a bad meal or server there! Awesome people
I have been coming here ever since I was a child. The people here are phenomenal, the food is amazing. Please support this local diner if you want a great nostalgic experience.
Friendly staff and good prices.
Classic greasy spoon in all the right ways. Service is fast, food is delicious and after a few visits you will be greeted personally. They do have limited hours (close at 2p daily). But they serve the entire menu all day.
Just good food in a quaint diner.
Food was great and service was excellent. Thanks for the great food and experience.
Food is delicious and faster than any place Ive been to yet. Everyone is so friendly to
Very good dive. Cash only.
Awesome food, amazing staff just an absolutely wonderful experience
Another spot for a great breakfast.
Just another day in paradise.
Always delicious food there
Iβve never been blown away by their food, but it does the trick.
Great service, great prices!
It was great like always. I had the number 3 which is 2 eggs an 4 peices of toast an orange juice an coffee.... yummy yumm....
Had breakfast here and the food was great the service was fast friendly and fun. Will definitely return.
Great local diner!
Nice place! Fast service.
We use to go here in the early 80s to eat when stationed at Griffiss Air force and its still there. The food is great and the people are very nice and helpful.
Cash only but the service and food made up for that. Love the homefries and sandwiches and pancakes!!!!
Love this place. Great food, great atmosphere, and the cost. Youll be glad you stopped in on a Tuesday or a Saturday no matter when you can always get breakfast or lunch. Highly recommend if youre looking for a nice place to eat.
When the Beeches closed, I was invited to try the Iron Kettle. Its has really been a great experience. Love the staff. And the food is Devine. Cant wait to visit again.
Locally owned and operated! Very friendly and great service. Wide menu selections. If you are looking for cozy comfort . . . This is your place.
Delicious food and friendly service ! Very satisfying breakfast and wonderful staff.
They have the most amazing french toast ever!! And their home fries are out of this world!
Great food for a great price, so reasonable! Down home atmosphere. Service is awesome!
Nice small town place with home style cooking. Fresh food and great service. Try to make a stop in every weekend. Sit by the bar and watch the cook make the food fresh in front of you. Prices are very good.
Cute little dinner. Good food
Staff is very friendly, the more you go the more they recognize you and youre like family (but, in a good way.) Prices are reasonable...coffee is good (they serve with milk)...love the home fries. I usually get an omelette or the 2 egg special. Not fond of the waffles, they taste frozen and dried out.Pancakes are good too.
Great home town atmosphere. Good home cooked food. Bring cash $$$, no credit cards welcomed.I love their breakfast and the fried chicken dinner! Yum yummy food
Good comfort food at very reasonable prices.
Absolutely horrible !!! The worst breakfast that I have ever had.
Great service.Always amazing food!!!
Best place in town for breakfast!
Cheap and basic
The food here was just ok. Nothing to rave about. I had blueberry pancakes, but they didnt have blueberries baked in like typical blueberry pancakes, it was just blueberry pie filling folded into the pancake like a taco. It wasnt very good and was a total sugar overload so that I couldnt even come close to finishing it! They are also cash only so be prepared. This place also definitely draws a very specific type of crowd, the senior citizens. The place was almost full and with the exception of a handful of us, everyone else were seniors. Surprisingly these seniors were a fairly raucous crowd and were very loud and talking over each other. We couldnt really carry on a decent conversation at our table because they were so loud. Id say this may have been a fluke, but the waitress knew everyone at the table by name and I heard them make comments about their weekly meals together so I assume they are a regular part of the atmosphere there. It has a cute local vibe to it and all, but I still wouldnt recommend this place.
Terrible! Went for Sunday breakfast. There was one young man serving beverages that was EXCELLENT and should be given more responsibility! Other than that the whole experience was an exercise in frustration! The tables are too close together to sit comfortably back-to-back with other guests. Customers go into the food prep area to bus their own tables. Your order is taken based on whatever table the waitress wanders over to who NO regard to who arrived first, so it can easily take a half hour just to order and then we were greeted with a very terse what do ya want. For an order of 2 omelets we waited well over an hour. Then another 15 minutes while she struggled to figure the bill for 2 omelets, 2 coffees & an order of hashbrowns. The coffee was just ok, the juice watered down, the omelets were good but certainly not good enough to out weigh the horrendous customer service!
Quaint little restaurant I enjoyed the atmosphere (kind of like eating in Grandmas kitchen). I was surprised at how good the food was. The Reuben sandwich and potato salad were very good.
Very nice restaurant with large accessible parking lot near Fort Stanwick. Food is very good and reasonable. Met family here for breakfast and service was very good. My brother and I who like healthy food and are weight conscious had oatmeal. The others endulged in the usual breakfast fare and were pleased. Prices are reasonable.
Everything was great from the service to the food
Omg I went there for the first time today. It was awesome. Great food, great service and we were in and out in under an hour!
All ways great there love it
Great place, great food, great atmosphere. Not so great deaf,old waitress. Very nice but she deserves retirement, let her retire guys!
Im there at least twice a week. Reminds me of a family home. Somewhere they dont count how many times they fill your coffee cup. The food is slow cook, you may wait 5 minutes but Ill take 5 over 3 seconds of process food out of a baggy. My whole family goes there, love it. GLAD YOU STUCK AROUND ROME NY .
Absolutely love this place. This diner is the last mom and pop shop left in the area. Food is great, prices are amazing. Current live in Charlotte nc and we absolutely have to stop here when we come back to visit family.
Fast service, great food, friendly staff, and fantastic prices!

Best mom and pop style food in Rome. Great atmosphere and employees are very friendly. Food is the perfect home cooked for the right price!
Great food and great service! Love those homefries. Great place for breakfast, cant wait to try lunch.
Best Western Omelet Ive had.Been going there for years.Friendly servers and good food,not greasy.Coffee is great.
Great old fashion sit down breakfast, food is excellent highly recommend
Awesome little home style diner. Ive never been disappointed eating here.
Great food, great prices, great waitresses. 5 star.
We were there for over an hour and a half for breakfast. There was a young girl making sure our coffee cup was full but thats just too long to wait. We have been here many times but the last 2 times we were there forever. When we finally had eaten and were ready to pay we had to wait for the server who decided to go fill ketchup bottles. When she came out, instead of checking on her tables she decided to clean the coffee grounds and change that garbage .... i understand those things need to be done but you gotta respect the people who have been sitting there far too long as it is. We asked the girl pouring coffee but she wasnt allowed to get our bill for us. I bet she could have filled those ketchup bottles though. We wont be going back.
Nice cozy restaurant, inexpensive and serve breakfast all day.
Absolutely the best place for a real sit down home cooked breakfast.
A staple of Rome. Great food at a great value!
A nice place to go eat breakfast.
LOVE LOVE THIS PLACE. Never have been disappointed with service or food..
Good food, good prices, attentive service.
21sf of Nov. 17 Absolute waste. I ordered a steak and eggs, what showed up on my plate was a 3 or 4 oz thin cut flank steak. When i asked what it was they said how did you order it? I said rare and she said thats a rare steak and walks away. Then lies and says its an 8oz ribeye she saw them cut, then changes her mind that its a 4oz steak in a freezer pack and i see the pack. No way its been fresh cut in front of her. They charged me for everything and didnt even look at me when i paid just took my money.
Good prices, comfort food and a relaxed atmosphere.
Small portions. Very old atmosphere (wall to wall rug). Dont remember how it tasted
Great service and food.
Second time here and love the food. Service is great, awesome prices. Will always come here when in town.
Good food at a fair price. Breakfast and lunch. small but clean and friendly
Nice place for breakfast, good food and clean. Reasonable prices
Always the place to go in Rome for breakfast or lunch. A Rome NY institution. Good food, friendly staff and owners, very affordable.
Great food, fast and friendly service ! Always come for breakfast.
WARNING: THIS IS NOT A COFFEE SHOP!!! But they do have a solid traditional breakfast. Just dont go there for the coffee alone!
Every time we travel back to the area from South Carolina the Iron Kettle is always on the list of things to do! Love it!
I love it here use to be mine and my mom and dads spot before mom died few months ago now its mine and my dads very friendly very good very cheap highly recommend to everyone to eat here never had a problem once
Would have gotten 5 stars if they accepted credit cards.Food was excellent!
Havent been disappointed with their omelets or more hearty breakfasts. Stay away from anything that needs maple syrup though. Their pancakes deserve better than their table syrup.
Service was extremely slow,. Food was acceptable. People were nice, however, they have to work on their organization of tasking and customer needs. Waited too long for everything; in the end I had to get up and chase the waitress for the check.
Best place to have breakfast in Rome. Good food, quick service. Food is consistently delicious.
Food was really good by the old lady that was waitressing was very rude and very slow literally our meal came out before our beverages. When I asked whether our drinks were coming soon the waitress responded very rudely the gentleman cooking were great and very friendly though
The food was good and came out fast. Parking lot is kinda small but good establishment.
