Big Rig Diner looks like a cool little place when walking past. Sadly though it doesn't live up to its initial appeal. The music is way too loud for such a small restaurant, we were having to shout at each other to be heard.

Despite ordering a simple burger and hot dog the food took well over an hour to be served, and strangely people that came in 20-30 minutes after us got their food first. This wasn't helped by the chef being preoccupied with flirting with the two girls at the bar. There was no acknowledgement or apology for the delay in the food.

When it eventually arrived my friend said the hot dog was good, but my other friend wasn't happy at all with his burger as it was rather plain. I ordered the Cherry Pie, which I've been obsessed with since having on a holiday in the states. However, at $10 a slice was very over priced, disappointing and not very pie like. At $30 a pop the tiny jug of sangria was laughable.

The whole experience was quite poor and we won't be going back. Its not very good value for a diner.
