A diner's oversized booths and oversized pies have long been a beacon of hope for teens dumped after prom and frowny clowns looking for new novelty-sized props. Take refuge in the crispy crust of an old-fashioned eatery with today's Groupon: for $10, you get $20 worth of down-home cooking and drinks from Country Kettle on Dunlop Street.

Each morning, Country Kettle rises with the roosters and raw sunshine to crack Omega-3 eggs and plaster plates with homemade home cooking from breakfast until dinner. The country-fried steak 'n' eggs ($15.99) dredges, fries, and tops a New York striploin with béarnaise sauce before cordially inviting it to breakfast with two eggs blazed any style, strawberry jammed toast, and a side of tomatoes, potatoes, or fruit. Country Combos pair piping hot sandwiches with freshly made soup, salads, fries, sideburns, or cream slaw. Take the night off from cooking and kick back as a tenderfoot sandwich ($8.99) gently coos over a sweet pork schnitzel bouncing on a bun of lettuce, tomatoes, and Dijon-lime aioli.

Reviews

Country Kettle has a 3.5-star average from four Restaurantica reviewers and three Yelpers:

• Not one bite was without at least one of the tasty ingredients. It was also cooked to perfection - no nasty, overcooked brown spots - it was golden throughout. And the hashbrowns - oh boy. Seasoned just so, crispy enough to give a little crunch and thankfully not oversalted. – Ange M., Yelp
• This is our regular breakfast stop. The food is great and the staff is excellent. – Norm Luke, Restaurantica
