If you're looking for conservative western food in the otherwise heavily leaning Indian Caribbean Middle East Brampton food landscape, Wimpy's is your oasis.

Waffle House #1622 - Cartersville, GA

2310 Hwy 411

Visited April 28, 2015

The bean counters must have done ROI calculations to justify keeping Waffle House open 24 hours year round with a skeleton crew of 2 during vampire hours.  How did they determine hungover Southerners numbers?

Steel City Diner - Pittsburgh, PA

CLOSED 2010(?)

961 Liberty Ave

Steel City Diner reflects the blue collar culture of Pittsburgh.  Hard, stern, no nonsense, no froufrou decor.  It exemplifies the old school typical eat a big hearty greasy big breakfast before you go to work diner.  It's a piece of Americana and a dying breed but given the nature of the city, I predict this diner will continue to thrive (I was sadly wrong, 2010)

North Pole Restaurant - Newport, MN

1644 Hastings Ave

Established 1947

Visited January 1, 2008 

Newport will never be mistaken as a Mecca of diverse food so it's no surprise the North Pole Restaurant survives in land of bland. The North Pole Restaurant serves diner conservative staples bacon, eggs, pancakes, burgers and sandwiches. It's frozen in the 70's and probably just the way the regular locals raised on meat and potatoes like.
