Mary’s Place

This is my place for a home cooked breakfast! :-) the prices are just right for the amount of food that you are getting and if you start to go there regularly they will already know your order, also you may end up on the wall of fame :-) I always get the country ham with scrapped eggs and home fries. NOW DATA GOOOOD EATIN’! :-)

A group of friends and I went to the Deanwood area for a fun day of exploration, complete without doing any research or Unilocaling before we arrived. After departing the Deanwood Metro we walked across the street to the Community Center where we were given the recommendation of Mary’s Place, and there we went!
Location — This place is missable if you don’t know where you are going. If you are near the highway, you’re almost there since this restaurant runs parallel.
Food — Breakfast diner food. Get a country fried steak with potatoes for ~$ 7, or french toast with eggs and sausage ~$ 9. Other items include pancakes, cheeseburgers and other sandwiches, corn bread, and beans & rice. CA$H ONLY!!!
Space — Sit up at the counter or there are two small tables that may fit four people squished. Not too big but it does the job. You can tell it’s a local place, which only adds to its charm! If that doesn’t do it, you’ll get a joy reading the words of wisdom on the walls or looking at the photos inside.
Staff — Susie and the team are great, friendly, and quick with the food! The grill is right in front of the counter and you can see them whipping up the food like ninjas.
Overall, awesome local Deanwood experience for all to witness and enjoy. As Susie says, «woo hoooo!»

This place is great and the staff are very friendly. My girlfriend and I stop by here every time we are heading to DC. Great price and great food, don’t let the location fool you.
