Food Scene
You can't miss this place as you travel up State St hill in W. Lafayette. It id the tiny, mom & pop style diner located in the bright orange and brown building. This is a must to meet the locals and many from afar, (seating is close so you have no choice) enjoy a sandwiched named after football players, or the great American breakfast anytime.
Warning-if you want to be part of the home Purdue football crowd, this place is packed early (6am) with the Breakfast Club. This is a group of die heard fans that dress crazy, have a lot of fun and start the tail gating early, very early.
This place only accepts cash. ATM inside is available.
