Hungover and hungry? Simply roll out of bed, pull on some sweats, and head on over to Merry Ann’s! With locations on both Main and Neil, Merry Ann’s diner is the “place to be” 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Like the adorable diner featured in the movie Waitress, one can easily imagine Keri Russell walking down the aisles of Merry Ann’s, even if they aren’t limited to pies. Besides its delectable array of traditional breakfast foods, the diner also offers a myriad of scrumptious lunch and dinner selections. Nothing beats their renowned Diner Stack: a pile of crispy hash browns topped with cheese, hamburger or sausage patties, eggs and southern-style gravy. In addition to the food, the Merry Ann’s staff embodies that hometown charm capable of winning over even the grumpiest lout. Another bonus: Merry Ann’s is a wireless hotspot. With unparalleled food, people, and amenities, what more could you ask for from Champaign-Urbana’s best 24-hour hangout?
