Lowkey a hidden gem in Dedham. Little wait to be sit. Great menu and reasonable pricing. Service is great as well! Cash only might be a deal breaker for some. It is a bit loud but you can talk.

A traditional place with consistently fresh food and excellent service. When you come here, you experience an atmosphere that makes you feel like you're in an old, cozy home. I love this place! I recommend it!

Cute diner style restaurant. Basic breakfast food. I had a veggie omelette with sourdough toast. That was pretty good. The bacon was a little too crisp for me not burnt just thinning crisp . The home fries could’ve been seasoned more . Next time I will try their sandwiches and soup. no wait for me because I sat at the counter. In general, pretty busy great location near Dedham Legacy place. Great place to bring the kids.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 50’s Diner is a classic breakfast spot done right. Generous portions, fluffy pancakes, perfectly cooked eggs, and crispy home fries — exactly what you want from a retro diner. The coffee keeps coming, the food hits the spot, and the old-school vibe makes it even better. Comfort food at its best. Highly recommend! 🥞☕️

Food was good, service was also. Love the decor and they keep it clean. Haven't been to this place in over 25 years and it was still a good experience.

I’ve ordered takeout from this diner several times, but this was the first time my girlfriend went to pick it up for me — and it will definitely be our last.
When she arrived, it took a while for anyone to even acknowledge her. When she finally gave my name for the order, the older woman behind the counter made a comment under her breath, which was already unprofessional.
She waited about 15 minutes with no one asking her for any kind of order confirmation. But when the food was finally ready, the older woman suddenly refused to hand it over until she “proved” it was ours. While my girlfriend was calling me to get proof, the younger woman behind the counter pointed out that she had already been waiting long enough, yet the older woman still wouldn’t release the bag. She even made my girlfriend list what was inside it before handing it over.
This diner has multiple signs and rules posted right at the front about every little thing, yet there isn’t a single sign stating that customers need to show any kind of verification for online pickups. If this is a requirement, it should be posted just like all the others.
To be completely honest, the way my girlfriend was treated felt racially motivated. I’ve picked up from them before with no issues and without ever being asked for “proof,” but the very first time she went, she was spoken to and questioned in a way that I’ve never experienced there or anywhere else. The tone and the suspicion were completely unnecessary and made her extremely uncomfortable.
Best breakfast in dedham. You will probably have to wait but the line moves quickly. All the food is too notch, only thing i can comolain about (which is not a big deal, just the only thing that could be better) is that they do not have fresh squeezed orange juice. Everything else is great. Also it is cash only.
