About Lori's Diner

Lori's Diner is a 50's style restaurant with a vintage atmosphere and decor, including a 50's era Edsel car and arcade machines. The diner offers a variety of classic American dishes such as a tuna sandwich and a cheeseburger with fries, which are praised for their taste and presentation. The staff is friendly and attentive, providing quick service. Customers can enjoy breakfast options that are considered to be of higher quality than typical hotel fare, with some reviews highlighting poached eggs Benedict and Florentine on toast topped with Hollandaise sauce, served alongside not too salty Potato Rosti. The menu also features hearty lunch and dinner choices, including a New York Steak that is described as soft, juicy, and well-seasoned, cooked to the proper temperature. The portions are generous, often enough to take home leftovers. The diner serves beer, wine, and milkshakes, and the atmosphere is filled with fun 50's memorabilia that adds to the experience. Arcade machines accept four quarters but do not provide refunds, so customers are advised to exchange money at the cashier. The food is cooked fresh and served hot, with overall positive reviews about the quality and variety. While some reviews mention mixed feelings about brunch options, the overall experience at Lori's Diner is memorable, especially for fans of Burgers, Sandwiches, steaks, soups, and pastas. The friendly service, lively decor, and classic American dishes make it a popular spot for breakfast, lunch, and dinner.
