The corn beef hash with two eggs and potatoes was delicious ?.
And, the fun time talking to the people who work there made it feel like eating at home.

We have been going to Laurel Diner for many years. Prior to living in southbury we lived in Shelton and it was worth the drive. We love the food. It is fresh and very well made. The owners Pete and Stephanie are not only gracious but they are also classy. They say good things are worth the wait whether you are waiting to be seated or find a good park but trust me, it is worth the wait.

This is a fantastic place to grab a quick bite to eat. The prices are what you’d expect for a smaller establishment but the food is definitely worth it. It was fun to get to know a few of the locals as I ate. My only complaint (which might not necessarily be their fault) is that it’s a pain to use their parking lot. But overall I had a good breakfast there and will definitely be returning in the future.

Quick stop off of I84 for breakfast, hubby had the breakfast special and added sausage gravy. Best he ever had! Need a diner like this in Gettysburg, PA. Service was fast and the server did a great job keeping our coffee cups full. We will stop again if ever back this way.

Hands-down, the best burgers in Connecticut, and locally sourced on top of that. I won't start a busy workday without fueling myself up here first.

Kid-friendliness: Incredibly kid-friendly staff, and entertaining atmosphere

The service was a little slow in this little hole-in-the-wall diner, but the food more than made up for it. OUTSTANDINGLY DELICIOUS!! If we ever find ourselves out this way again, we'll definitely stop in!

I had no idea I was walking into one of the best breakfasts I’ve ever had in my life. I recommend the “Pete’s special” or Pete’s favorite, (now unofficially known as Jake’s favorite) simply because it comes with the most amount of different food options at once. Please upgrade the French toast to cinnamon roll French toast. I’ll probably make it a point to come here again anytime I’m within 100 miles of this diner. Cash only, but I would’ve traded them my car for that meal if I had nothing else. I know I sound crazy and I don’t care. The food was just that good.
