I usually do not leave bad reviews for locally owned establishments. This place was so bad I had to review it. Maybe they're hamburgers are good and it might just be what we ordered but it was awful.
We both got ham and cheese sandwiches. The sandwiches were delivered off of a very dirty grill. The bread had been basted with some type of cheap vegetable oil served with a very, very thin, barely noticeable slice of ham from a reconstituted ham roll and as cheap as a slice of processed orangish yellow American cheese food as you can possibly get. It was awful and we each finished barely a half before we could not eat anymore.
Our server was very pleasant but she was not the one ordering and preparing the food.
We looked around and most people were having hamburgers but after what we saw of our sandwiches I can't imagine the owners would serve any type of quality product.
This might be for some people, but if you are from out of town be aware.

Our family first visited this charming '50s classic diner in Spruce Pines back in August, and it instantly became our breakfast spot every day for a week! My wife declared their pancakes the best she's ever had, and I couldn't get enough of their fried bologna and egg and cheese sandwich. The food is fantastic, and the prices are incredibly reasonable—back home, we'd easily pay twice as much for a breakfast half as good. We love the place so much it even influenced our decision to buy a home nearby. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a delicious, nostalgic breakfast experience

50's Diner is a great place to eat. The food is consistently delicious, and the staff is so pleasant. We always feel welcomed here. The food is great, the portions are perfect, and the prices are very fair. If you want a hometown delicious meal, this is the place. We highly recommend this little gem!!

We've always had both great service and food and their prices beats the local burger chain. Alisha knows what we like to drink when we come in the door--they have great sweet tea! And the best mushroom swiss burger (but my husband likes their western omelette). A #1 small town restaurant with #1 staff.
