    I always hit Dottie's when I am in Dubuque. They are a cozy place that caters to their regulars. There can be conversations that can cover the whole dining room (regulars and wait staff), so be prepared. The food is your typical greasy diner and very reasonable for breakfast. We love their Hillbilly Suprise. English Muffin, Ham, Cheese, two eggs (your choice) covered in sasuage gravy with hash browns on the side.

    Dottie's is a no frills, no nonsense old school diner located in downtown Dubuque. While the current management has been here since 1990, the decorators haven't been by since probably the 70's, so it retains a simple retro appeal. Great choice of breakfast entrees all priced under $10.00, lunch items like sandwiches and melts for $5-6.00. I took advantage of the day's breakfast special of eggs, meat (bacon, sausage or ham), hash browns for a wallet friendly $4.25. With coffee, the bill was $6.99. What breakfast should cost. Service was gracious and swift. While it looks like a place where the server might call you "honey," I was not called that or any other name. Poopsie or Buttercup would have been fine, too. In spite of that, I'm sure I'll be back. Such a good deal. A piece of pie is a buck 95.

    Their motto is "a great place for a home cooked meal" and that Describes this quaint little diner. It has a wonderful counter that seats about 10. Booths and tables for a comfortable atmosphere. We had breakfast- corned beef hash with choice of American fries or hashed browns and eggs. I've had better corned beef but it was reasonably priced and tasty. It's hard to screw up breakfast! Our grandaughter was satisfied with Fruit Loops and chocolate milk. Service was excellent and cheery. Clean. I would do this place over a chain or hotel. I'm sure their lunch menu would fit the pickiest eater.

    We stopped in because we like trying small cafes. it is a typical little diner. I had to smile at hearing somebody call another person "a pill" and references to euchre tournaments. That definitely took me back to my roots! If you are looking for a basic "greasy spoon" breakfast you can't go wrong here.

    Tasty diner food. I don't go here for any culinary specialties but it's a great priced breakfast and homemade deserts . Once you are a regular you really feel at home! The staff is mostly friendly and welcoming. They can tweak most any menu item for your taste/cooking preference and will even turn the fryers on at 8 am for you to get french fries! TRY THE CHOCOLATE CAKE!

    Dottie's is a cozy little place. They seem to have their regulars and can tell if you're an outsider. The food was standard American diner fare. Nothing bad about it, but nothing outstanding either.

    The Cute Girl and I have driven by Dottie's a dozen or more times on the way to get breakfast somewhere else, and each time we say something like, "We'll have to get there sometime." I woke up this morning today and thought, "It's a Dottie's Day, dammit!" All things considered, this was a disappointing experience, and needless to say, Dottie has not cracked my "Top Five Places to Get Breakfast in Dubuque" List. I ordered the Hillbilly Breakfast (based mostly on the strength of the name). It was an English muffin, upon which were two scrambled eggs (which were good), some Swiss cheese (unlocated, untasted, and overall unconfirmed), and perhaps the worst sausage gravy that I have ever seen, tasted, smelled, or otherwise consumed. It was a total mess, and tasted just about as you would expect. I hope the gravy was out of a can--I suspect that it was--and thus I will not take it as a personal attack from DOttie against me. The hashbrowns were better than I expected given how bad the Hillbilly mess was. To make it worse, I found the service on the verge of unpleasant. The lack of good service and the lack of good food does not counteract the good prices. I'll stick with Caroline's or head across 5th St. for the surprisingly good breakfast at Tony Roma's (yes, really).

    Dottie's is the perfect small town diner. The few patrons that were there seemed to all know each other. The service was quick and friendly. Our breakfasts were topnotch and at decent prices. We will definitely stop by if we come through town again.

    Had a hangover, needed food. Went to Dottie's hoping for some real good breakfast fare. Was disappointed - the hash browns weren't crispy and were completely flavorless, the omelet I had came slathered in American cheese, which in this context was just nasty. Overall pretty disappointed, I left wishing I'd gone to the McDonald's down the street.
