A burger-insider haunt since 1947, this unassuming joint with a horseshoe-shape counter -- no tables here -- turns out one heck of a good burger topped with Tillamook cheddar, plus a hickory burger with barbecue sauce. You'll also find great fries and, of course, an apple pie good enough to name a restaurant after (although many regulars argue that the banana cream deserves the honor). Be prepared to wait.

Great food and atmosphere! Sodas served in those old fashioned paper cones in a metal base! Counter servers wear soda-jerk hats! Very nostalgic, and a great place to see celebrities....last week: Rob Reiner and the actor who plays "Avon" in "The Wire". Don't miss the pies!

The overlooked pie...

The pecan pie is the one thing you shouldn't forget to order when experiencing the Apple Pan. Rather than describing it, I'll just say that I had never liked pecans, let alone the pie, until I ate at this diner.
