Homestyle Diner is like coming home to Mom's cooking, in Mom's dinning room. The staff are great people, and eager to ensure you have a great meal, and the specials are just that, special. The value is good, and please remember to pick up some cookies on the way out, they's awesome!This place is my go-to when I just can't face making breakfast (or I've run out of food in the fridge), but they're also a good place to escape for a coffee and read for a bit.

Crazy busy, loud, waitress tried but it was 40 mins before we got our (delicious) food. She was great... kitchen was horribly backed up. Willing to *maybe* try again, the front staff were friendly and personable.

I was very disappointed with the services in the diner. My mother and I were seated right away to a table however we waited almost 10 min and still, no one even bothered to asked us for our drinks. I work as a server myself and the fact that not even the other servers or host offered to start us with anything even if the other server is busy was disappointing. There was another server who informed us that the server was coming but we just sat there in the middle of the room and it was obvious that we were being neglected. It was only when we decided to leave that the server finally acknowledged us. I felt bad for leaving but I think that if the server assign to us is busy, another server or host should step up so that the customer is not feeling neglected. We ended up going to Sunset Grill and even though they were busy, we were served within minutes.

Stopped by last weekend for a quick breakfast ... wasn't disappointed. Very friendly staff, large selection at reasonable prices, and service was quick and accurate.Will definitely return, and next time I'll bring my girls with me.February 18, 2024 update ... food is tasty and plentiful, the atmosphere had a welcoming diner feel to it, and the service was amazing. My server (I do not her name) was very polite and helpful, and she brought out my food with a smile. She took my order, and my food came out just like I ordered, very professional service.Homestyle is one of the better diners in this part of Waterloo.I'll be back, and you should give them a try.

Small restaurant. Food pretty good. Desserts lovely. Reasonably priced.
Delicious food with a large menu of options. Gets very busy, though (not that I'd expect otherwise from a great place).

What can I say about home style diner, this has to be one of my favourite breakfast places - as soon as you walk in you are greeted with friendly and prompt staff and a cozy atmosphere.Once sat you can count on your servers to always greet you with a smile, efficiency and extremely friendly,The food - what can I say, I have NEVER been more satisfied, the pickle grilled cheese ... MY Favourite!One thing I also really like is that the owners Craig and Denise always find the time to walk around and greet their customers when they can! It's always a nice touch when owners appreciate their customers.You will never be disappointed with home style diner!Keep up the great work everyone!Also shout out to Jenny! One of the great servers at home style!

Terrible costumer service, female server completely ill-treated a bunch of brown students, and then proceeded to rant to another set of costumers about the situation in their presence. Owner was nice but the server was unapologetic and behaved pathetically.
