“Been driving past this establishment for the last 20 years and never stopped(I know, shameful😔). A friend posted their desire to go and get the shamrock shake. I decided to reply and make it a double date with my wife. Let me tell you, I havent felt that amazed and impressed in a diner in 30 years! The atmosphere and overall condition of Connies Diner is top notch. The waitresses were all enthusiastic and the kitchen staff can be seen working diligently and also with enthusiasm. Food is absolutely 100% on point! To top it all off, Gena our waitress is my newest favorite person, I was making jabs at her and she was jabbing me right back lol. She was the icing on the cake and we'll be back this Saturday to bask in all the glory of Connies Diner again!“

Great selection of sandwiches etc. Everything was acceptable although a little on the pricey side for lunch. Would I go back? Definitely for the soup (can I get that recipe?). I also think on a cold day inside at the expansive bar (with a view) and the stone fireplace would be great.“
