The Uptown Griddle - Merrifield MN
On the way to Nisswa...but can't make it another mile without breakfast.
The Uptown Griddle is right here in Merrifield. No need to go another mile.
Cute, smaller diner--about a dozen tables. But, a big challenge the moment you enter. Now maybe one of you is up for this...it's way out of my league:'The Challenger' at The Uptown Griddle -- More than we can handle LOL

We, being a little more 'restrained,' decided to order from the menu. My eye immediately went to the buckwheat pancake...a side item. Hard to find a good buckwheat pancake, so I'm ready to give it a try, with an egg thrown in for good measure. John opted for oatmeal---'loaded' and the 1/2 biscuit and gravy.
Between the 2 of us, we couldn't tackle the challenger!!
Buckwheat panckake, biscuits and gravy and loaded oatmeal!!
The buckwheat pancake was fantastic....a thin pancake with a crisp edge and great flavor. To gild the lily, it came with blueberries and whipped cream.. Totally delish!
John's loaded oatmeal was nummy, too. Whole grain oats---big oat flakes with a little toothiness topped with raisins and golden raisins, cinnamon, brown sugar...and a cute pot of milk. The biscuit (a whole biscuit on the 1/2 order) was smothered in thick, creamy, slightly sweet cream gravy with sausage and sprinkled with fresh herbs. The biscuit was homemade.
We devoured every tasty bite. Then we asked about how many people were able to meet the challenge of the Challenger......total: 6
Don't feel so bad--it obviously takes a special person to meet the challenge!!!!
