Way Station Coffee Shop

We’ve been going to the Way Station for about 40 years off & on. Old timey & historic! You can’t beat the Thursday special! Staff is busy, so relax, they’ll see you! We’ll be back!

Popular spot for breakfast so the wait was about 20-30 minutes on a Sunday morning. The food was good but the menu is extremely limited option wise.

Great little diner on Main Street in Old Town Newhall. All kinds of old license plates on the walls and other cool old signs. Prices & serving sizes were great with a super friendly staff! The waitress told me the building it is in used to be an ice cream parlor and there is a section of the original bar counter top and stools still in use! Highly recommend checking this place out if you are in the area.

For nearly 20 years of my life this place has been the best example of the breakfast diner of a by-gone era. This place gets really busy but you might be able to squeeze in at the counter. Weekday mornings are quieter and a great time to go.

Straight off the plane from Hawai'i and craving some hashbrowns, steak and gravy. This place didn't disappoint- Mahalo. ?

I hadn't been to Way Station in years, but my gal thought we might try it, again, just to see. Where does one begin? The cafe is nothing to write home about--- and looks as if there has been no upgrade since it opened decades ago; it just appeared dirty and untidy. Service was unfriendly and spotty, and after we were seated, we waited a half hour for our food. I ordered the French Toast; it came lathered with what wouldn't pass for butter, blindfolded, and was absolutely tasteless. The table syrup didn't help; it was tasteless, too. I had half a slice and pushed it away. I must say, with doubt, this was absolutely the worst French Toast I have ever ordered in a restaurant The coffee was generic and bitter. My gal had the eggs, potatoes, bacon, some of which she gave to me. The bacon was crisp, and that's about the only memorable thing. A simple breakfast? The bill was $28. What an incredible amount for such poor food, poor atmosphere, poor service. Well, Way Station, we won't be back.

Great old school place with good prices and good food. Exactly what you want from a diner.

Super old diner, they have cool license plates on the walls, basically your classic old school type of place. The food is average but the prices not bad.

The Way Station Coffee Shop in Newhall is an old-style diner with consistent reasonably priced food and a bottomless cup of good coffee. The portions are generous and the pancakes won't disappoint! Sometimes it's difficult to find a place that opens early, Way Station does, keep in mind they shutter on Tuesdays. A local place you must try for breakfast or lunch.

Parking: Three areas to park, in back of restaurant, on the street, in the garage off Main.

Love the small town diner feel. The staff was friendly. Be prepared to wait for a place to sit, the food is good so it draws a crowd.
