In Short
Tall booths, signed celebrity posters and a jukebox loaded with everything from metal to house decks out this all-night novelty diner. Big, bookish menus are full of treats, including a breakfast menu with pancake offerings named after celebrities like Pamela Anderson and Dolly Parton, depending on how stacked you like them. The burgers are huge--Boxx's burger is loaded with bacon, mushrooms and Tillamook cheddar. Sandwiches include the Paul Reubens Reuben, slippery with spicy meat.

My girlfriend and I have been going there for years and have always found it to be a welcoming hang out. The food is a full breakfast and lunch menu open 24 hours except Mondays. Its way crowded on Friday and Saturday nights so first timers try another day. If your into nightlife or the subculture and don't want Denny's this is the place for you. Beware though you will be asked for spare change or an extra cigarette on your way to the door but don't let it discourage you. Try it tonight.

So I've only been serving for 6 years, and in this industry I know it's not much, but I ordered coffee and didn't want to stay any longer because half of the waitstaff was incredibly and unnecessarily rude. I would have loved to go there and have a good time, as many of these reviewers have had but it was hard enough to even just find out who my server was (without receiving such attitude that shouldn?t be directed at a customer), let alone trying to order a cup of espresso. Thus said, I will never return and never recommend this business to anyone I know and since I work at a large hotel that caters to business travelers, I?m proud to say that the Cadillac Cafe, Holman's, and Tin Shed are places I recommended to customers.

I have been coming here since I was in high school (a long long time ago), and it hasn't changed much. The only things missing are the high backed booths, and smoking. Oh and that really tall waiter that used to wear an apron that said "6'7" or something. And apparently the cheese fries have changed too. They used to be shoe string type fries, and they were absolutely smothered in cheese, and had some parsley flakes or something on top. I was there a week ago and the fries were almost steak fries, and not a whole lotta cheese. Anywho, if you're hungry late at night The Roxy has a large menu with decent greasy-spoon food, and good people watching.

Know Before You Go:
Make sure to allow yourself plenty of time to hang out here--the service tends to be slow. But don't worry: There are plenty off odds and ends to keep you distracted.
