Nifty Fifty

It's "worth blowing your weekend calorie allotment" on "fresh-ground beef burgers", "hand-cut fries" and "milkshakes in every flavor you could imagine" at this "kitschy", neon-trimmed diner chain, a '50s "nostalgic ride" that "really takes you back in every way but the price"; the "noisy", "kid-friendly" confines are "always busy", but "helpful" servers are thankfully "on the ball."

Lunch, Breakfast, Desserts & Coffee: Aside from the catchy name, what does this checkerboard sock-hopper have that all the other burger joints in Philly don't? Well, of course, there's the nostalgia factor — from the music down to the Coney dogs and onion rings, Nifty's is straight out of the Eisenhower days. Be sure to tap into the soda fountain; they offer over 100 flavors and free refills!...

If you try out Nifty Fiftys, you`ll find a place that offers guests American dishes and is most sought for their burgers and sandwiches. Expect the average entrée to cost under $8.
