When you first walk into Miss Katie’s Diner, Hilary Clinton is looking you square in the eye and smiling—a full-sized cardboard cut out of her, that is. Entering Miss Katie’s is like going through a time warp straight to the set of “Happy Days.” In fact, among the ‘50s and ‘60s décor is a poster advertisement for “Happy Days: A Musical.” Also decorating the restaurant are American flags and flowers of red, white and blue.

This patriotic theme reigns supreme even on the menu with the Presidential Appetizer Special, as served to President Clinton and Chancellor Kohl from their visit in 1996. Other starters on the menu include Miss Katie’s homemade chili and soup of the day.

Depending on the time of day you go and what kind of food you are feeling, you have multiple options. It could be any one of the three meals a day, but Miss Katie’s serves breakfast all day so if you are craving French toast or a skillet, you are in luck.

If you are feeling like lunch at lunch time, don’t sweat it. Miss Katie’s has a variety of sandwiches and burgers to choose from. The most popular sandwich is Pitch’s Bar-B-Q Rib Sandwich, filled with rib meat simmered in Pitch’s famous sauce.

Drop by for dinner and almost any craving you have will be satisfied. Miss Katie’s has anything from Italian to BBQ and from chicken to shrimp. With their nearly endless options, everyone is sure to find something they’ll love.

After you’ve finished your meal, make sure you’ve left a little room for dessert. Miss Katie’s features your typical homemade diner delights, but when it comes down to it, a brownie sundae is extremely difficult to pass up. Miss Katie’s brownie sundae is made with perfect brownies covered in ice cream then coated with hot fudge, and finally topped with whipped cream. There is always cheesecake or another dessert if you prefer.

Don’t forget to check out the daily specials. Also, Miss Katie’s offers a Marquette value menu for dinners 5pm to 10pm daily for students and staff. Just bring your MU ID and your appetite to enjoy! Miss Katie’s is a splendid place to eat for any meal and won’t break your budget. In fact, it was featured on Rachael Ray’s $40 A Day.
