I love breakfast here. Staff is usually attentative. Prices can be cheap up to average depending on what your getting. I wish you didn't have to ask for napkins when your only given one from your utensils. Coffee and tea are decent as well. It is definitely a place to go for some great food and relaxing atmosphere.

Fantastic 3 item omelettes and hashbrowns for 5 dollar special. Everything tasted great and I would highly recommend. Coffee was good, if maybe, slightly weak.

This is a pretty nice place to get some food and chill with friends or family. The food is good and the staff are nice. The interior is cozy but worn.My friends and I came and sat down at a booth and had fairly speedy service. The coffee is very drinkable, and they refill your coffee at a good pace. The price is very reasonable, even after a tip is accounted for.

New owners efforts paying off to provide warm welcoming and tasty continuation of legendary and much celebrated fifty year Haefner family tradition.Presentation a visual delight. Service great.Will be interesting to see how they tackle their goal of a Cheers like tradition of freely awarding Regular customer status, whether or not everybody knows your name.Restaurant is unfortunately in rented space in building next to recently closed antique store. Both properties now owned by high rise developer. Located contiguous to downtowns entertainment area, the Wagon Wheel deserves expansion and preservation as an important community destination...as celebrated in a coffee table book organised by University sociology prof. Lots parking across street.Would like to see them bring back menu items from Marty's Pizza, famous for making sub sandwiches popular here a half century ago.

I'm sure we were there on a bad day. Restaurant was very busy and waitress was overwhelmed. Bus boy with the Ash hat should probably be let go. He was unhelpful, ignoring dirty tables and had to be told several times to do his job. He would have rather sat in the back chatting with the overwhelmed cook and drink soda. He was also very rude to a customer whose order wasn't right. Otherwise a quaint diner with friendly people. A lot of local patrons who knew where items like coffee syrup and take home boxes were so they could help themselves. Food was decent. The extra help that was called in saved the day.

Definitely a small town atmosphere. Classic open kitchen diner style. It’s what you would expect from the name of the restaurant. The servers were very attentive and very delightful. The food was pretty slow coming out which is why I gave it four stars. The breakfast food was good and appropriately priced! I will be coming back here again.

What a great, old fashion place to have a great breakfast! Reminded me of my Grandma's diner in SoCal when I was a child. The food is very good and the atmosphere is welcoming. I love it! Santa Approved!

We ordered 3 omelettes. They were terrible. They were dry, and had no flavor. One of us ordered a coffee and when the waitress brought the coffee pot over it looked like a pot of iced tea. It was so watered down you could clearly see through the pot. The service was slow and the mens bathroom looked like a bathroom in a gas station.

This hole in the wall breakfast place will surprise you. Besides the usual fare, they had some interesting combos and dishes. Definitely a menu worth exploring. The staff was cheery and the kind of sweet waitresses you would expect. All that said...this is a cramped, hole in the wall cafe so set your expectations properly.

Wagon Wheel is a greasy spoon diner. The atmosphere is 1980's cafe. I wasn't impressed with anything. The server seemed preoccupied and stressed.

First time we came in to eat, everything was going well until the end. We asked for a couple donuts, one of them was a filled donut. When the waitress brought them my boyfriend took a bite into one, froze, and then spit it out. He had burnt the inside of his mouth very badly. When we told the waitress she just sort of shrugged and said something along the lines of "guess I shouldn't microwave them as long next time". It took about 2 weeks for his mouth to heal. We tried to give them another try one day when it was busy and they sent us to the back where there were no tables available. We went back to the front and couldnt get an eta on a table, or even the front attendant to acknowledge us. We ended up leaving to go have breakfast at pub 500 instead.
