Like many others, I used to go to Mel's with a couple of friends back in first year. It was open late and the food wasn't bad. Coming back, this place isn't as popular as it was back then. That's probably because the food is just okay now. \n\nMel's Diner is, to me, a place that you'd go to if you were really too lazy to make your own breakfast. I ordered the Big Mel (with french toast and over-easy eggs), and my boyfriend had the Great Canadian (over-easy eggs). It's the worst french toast I've ever had, and I'm sure most people could do better in their own kitchen. My boyfriend's peameal bacon was tough to cut/rip/chew through. Bacon was overcooked and oily (left a pool of oil that seeped through my french toast and eggs). I think you get the picture. It's also like $10 per meal.\n\nOverall, it's not a great experience. As I said, if you're feeling lazy and just want to step out for a meal, you can dish out about $10 at Mel's.
