Penny's Diner Reviews
I know some say their experience was not great, but I love this place. I feel like we need to keep ALL and EVERY diner alive. I love the atmosphere and vintage signs and things. There is an endless (it seems) amount of food options to choose from so each time you go there would be a new meal you could try!

Penny's Diner is a charming eatery with top-notch service. The menu offers a variety of dishes, including a Reuben with crispy tots, a patty melt with exceptional french fries, and a great burger with outstanding fries. The Chocolate Malt is a highlight, and the diner prides itself on using quality ingredients. Customers praise the fantastic service, excellent food, and welcoming atmosphere. The fries are described as some of the best diner fries, with a crisp fry. The kitchen's substitution of fried onions for onion rings on the western burger was an excellent choice, making the burger taste and look like it came from a much fancier restaurant. The milkshakes are ample and do not leave customers feeling bloated. Penny's Diner is a top choice for diners passing through New Mexico.
The diner is well-known for its large servings, including huge pancakes and the Hearty Breakfast with french toast. Customers also enjoy their coffee and the delicious sandwiches to go, such as the club and deli sandwiches with tater tots. While the prices are a bit high, many find the food worth it, especially the pie, which is considered amazing. Even when short-staffed, the friendly chef and waitress ensure a wonderful experience. Visitors find Penny's Diner to be a wonderful small place, a GEM in Belen, and often recommend bringing family to enjoy the great food and welcoming atmosphere.
