  My family stopped by on our way to Toronto for lunch on a Thursday.  There were a lot more cars there than I expected for where it was located.  Quite a number of customers were elderly.
  
  The service was friendly and good.  We ordered two grilled chicken salads, one fish sandwich and one chicken tenders.  Everything came with fries including the salads (like a topping).  My wife and I enjoyed our salads and thought it hit the right note of freshness and taste and volume.  My youngest liked the fish sandwich.  The older one thought he had better chicken tenders elsewhere but thought it was okay (3.5 out of 5).  We were pleasantly surprised by the lemonade my youngest ordered.  It came with one free refill and wasn't too sweet or too sour.
  
  As an experience, it also rated high because it was like being part of a slice of small town life for a brief moment.  But, getting back on the highway was a little trickier than I expected.  We traveled east on Main St (route 20) for a while before my GPS took me north and then back onto 90 East.

  Stopped by for lunch on the way to the lake. The service was excellent and the food was great. My wife loved the pie.

  It's a great little grubby food joint. Food is neither delicious or terrible, but service can be slow. Ordered the milkshake, based on reviews, and I've had better from places like Johnny Rockets or Red Robin, so don't get your hopes up for an awesome milkshake (I'm a bit of a milkshake snob). I ordered the jumbo fish sandwich, I suppose my idea of jumbo is different from theirs, it really wasn't any bigger than any fast food place making fish sandwiches. Someone reviewed that portions had gotten smaller and ingredients were not the same quality and have never eaten here before, I can only imagine how great this place was back in the day. Lots of older people, kind of a cult following, eating here, I'm afraid once they're all gone, so will this place...

  Excellent local place to grab a burger. Shakes are made like in the "good old days", a must have. Don't miss the onion rings, and be sure to leave room for a slice of homemade pie.

  Great food and very good prices.  Meeders has been the place to enjoy food and good company since the early 60's.   I especially like their Chili and grilled cheese special for lunch.  If a piece of pie is what you are looking for this is the place.

  Been to Meeder's many times over the years.  It's a cute friendly place, but their primary mission is saving money on ingredient costs.  Their quality level on everything is "buy cheap", and over the years, "find cheaper".  
  
  Their latest fiasco was to violate their signature breakfast sandwich, the McMeeder.  The McMeeder is (was) a tasty patty sausage, egg, and cheese on a bagel.  First they managed to find what appears to be shaved sausage patty that is half the thickness it used to be.  Then the bagel got replaced by this miniature bagel that is about the size of a Hostess Donette.  Don't even get me started on the dinner quality!
