About Mel & Faye's Diner

Mel & Faye's Diner is a good place that locals love. The food is good usually, with a perfect American Diner experience. Breakfast is the best in Jackson, with the Country breakfast (2 eggs, crispy thin potatoes, biscuit and gravy, and sausage) and the Denver omelet being awesome. The Senior omelet had a LOT of hashbrowns, and the omelet was great with bacon and cheese. For lunch and dinner, the regular hamburger and moo burger (2x 1/4 lb patties) are good quality and filling. The Aged Prime Rib special is very nice, perfectly cooked to medium rare with a complimentary horseradish side. The butterscotch milkshake is also so good. The staff is nice, kind, understanding, polite, professional, and accommodating, though sometimes in a hurry. The diner has a pick up window and outside seating. The large chocolate chip cookies by the checkout are really good. A great family friendly place for a quick bite to eat.

on 8-4-2025 my wife and i had lunch at your restaurant,i had the mo burger. something just did't taste right, for one the burger was cooked hard as a rock and my wife told me to send it back but i did't. i woke up today sick,and the only thing i ate was the mo burger. i do not want anything i just feel the prep on the food is not being watched, a rock hard burger on a small bun is not what you have served in the past. we eat there several times a month.

The most iconic Jackson restaurant, a classic American diner since 1956.

We ordered a Moo burger and fries, Sourdough burger and fries, and a chocolate peanut butter milkshake. Burger and fries were great, milkshake was incredible.

All about the vibe here, classic diner theme featuring historic decor from the city of Jackson. Open kitchen where you can watch burgers being grilled while sitting at the diner counter. Large indoor and outdoor seating area with a bar...read full review
