“I order takeout from here occasionally, but it's been a while since I've dined there. So I went with some people for lunch one day since we were in the area after a networking event. It wasn't crowded, but felt full with a good number of people having lunch/brunch.The staff were all pretty friendly. We were seated right after walking in and the service was a good pace throughout the entire dining experience. We all ordered something different but seemed to enjoy what we got. One person ordered one of the sandwich specials, another ordered the Mel's Chicken Sandwich and I got the Sante Fe Turkey Burger with sweet potato fries. It was very tasty, filling and served at the right temperature. I also had their Blueberry Lemonade which was really good.As always, a reliable place for a good meal. I recommend coming for brunch or course, but lunch is a good option too.“
“Food was delicious! I moved out of town. Came back for a visit. Down Home Diner did not disappoint.There no place like Philly when it comes to good food.Sorry, I'm partial to my home town ✔️Food was so good we forgot to get a good photo (my bad)“
“A great place. Been open many years. Recently on TV for their Anniversary. Sometimes crowded but they are quick and move fast. You can get breakfast sandwiches all day which is a plus. Coffee very good, another plus. Only takes cash, no big deal to me. Grew up in South Philly and local neighborhood places the same. Got scrapple, egg & cheese, bacon, egg & cheese, peppers , egg & cheese. All outstanding. Owner Bruce and his wife working up front, working, greeting and monitoring everything.“
“Perfect breakfast on a rainy day. The pancakes were delicious (we customized with banana chocolate chip!) as was the “scrapple” that is served along the omelette. Would recommend getting there early as it’s a small spot and there was a line already at 9 am!“
“Met a friend for breakfast as Apple Walnut Cafe was halfway between where I live and Swarthmore. It's a super cute diner-like atmosphere with very friendly wait staff and an extensive menu with all kinds of eggs, french toast, pancakes, and lots more. I enjoyed my blueberry pancakes and my friend enjoyed his eggs. It's a solid choice for breakfast and I look forward to trying other items on their menu in the future!“
“Great breakfast/diner-ish food--I'm partial to the creamed chipped beef. Mostly takeout (few tables), all Styrofoam + plastic--goes with their mostly takeout biz..Orders seem to flow smoothly, prices are better than fair and parking is plentiful.“
“This is my favorite breakfast spot by far when I WFH! The food always is still warm-hot, they follow directions really well if you leave some and I have never had an issue with them. Customer service and quality is top notch. I have never been in person but I don't need too. Bacon is always delicious, they're generous with the cheese on the eggs, and the hash browns are always made to good crisp. The best beverage is the tropical mix fruit drink, it's a lil pricey but you get a good beverage and some fruit mixed in. They'll always have my money.“
“This place is adorable, and the owners are all very sweet. They give you big portions of breakfast, and everything was really good (Belgian waffle, eggs, and grits). I'll definitely go back when I'm visiting Philly again.Wheelchair accessibility: No wheelchair accessibility ?“
“So damn good I had to cuss about it. Congee was flavorful and absolutely delicious. Tofu was crispy AF. Yes for those herbs and lemons. Kept my coffee cup full- thank you fam. This place was hitting on all points.?????????????????Vegetarian options: Dishes are clearly marked. Vegan options ??“
“We dined outside in a pleasant and relaxing atmosphere. The service and food were excellent. We enjoyed delicious coffee and a wonderful breakfast, freshly prepared and pleasantly served.We will be visiting again very soon.Vegetarian options: Fresh avocado and delicious gluten free toastDietary restrictions: Gluten free bread was an added surpriseParking: Parking very easy“
“I did not take any pictures but this place was perfect for a quick pick me up! It's the perfect diner food that you need on a Saturday or Sunday morning after a late night! The woman who took my order was extremely kind and the food was served quickly!“
“This was my first time here, and it did not disappoint! This restaurant has been on my "want to go" list for years, and I loved every bit of it. I'm happy I looked at the website first... the location I was about to go to does not service mimosa... I would have been disappointed. I went to the South Philly location, and EVERYTHING was good. The steak wasn't cooked to the temperature I prefer but it was still good! There are a few items I need to go back to try and I need to bring my kids here ? All in all, this restaurant/location was perfect!“
“The food is phenomenal. It’s A very unsuspecting location but the food more than makes up for location. Literally so great ! The food is incredible the portions are insane! Also great staff i ordered a coffee with some modifications and the woman at the counter said “ oh you’ll like the smoked vanilla latte more” and my goodness was she the most correct ! The food is phenomenal go there order literally anything you won’t be disappointed!“
Breakfast • $
“I've been getting breakfast from this small establishment on occasions for years. Their food is good, they have smoothies & a beverage selection beyond coffee & tea. The owners are friendly & they remember some of their customers by name & how most of them like their food to be prepared. I found this to be important because I'm a picky eater & I'm particular about the presentation of my food“
“We stayed in Brewerytown but found this hidden gem of a family run traditional diner. This is a non tourist spot where locals grab and go in a non stop in and out. Wide menu selection we ate 3 different mornings here because it was cheap, filling, and friendly, one of the few places open early morning is a plus. Family owned and mixed race staff was SO amazing to see! We always left full and happy. First time trying scrapple was just ok, like a fried patty of a dull flavored sausage. Had the 3 meat and egg combo best value. Grits were buttery and great with splashes of hot sauce. Pancakes just like something your mom would make for breakfast. BLT again nothing mind blowingly amazing, but comforting and familiar that takes you back to traditionally good homemade quality with regular ingredients. This would be same price as a Denny's but higher quality in service and quality taste. Come visit this diner is just a great Philly experience.“
“Leave your airs at home when visiting this Delco gem.This casual eatery is a favorite of mine. I love their breakfast and I love the fact that you can get Chinese food here as well.And the food is great and you won’t leave here hungry.I challenge you to find bigger pancakes anywhere in the Philadelphia area. If you’re a coffee lover, it’s always hot and fresh.It’s family run, and the love shows here.“
“We stopped in for breakfast while waiting for my car and o be serviced. The technician at Piazza recommended Nudy’s. We were blown away! Friendly, efficient and pleasant staff. Delicious and unique breakfast selections. Will definitely be returning!“
“Where to start!!! I happened to be at Upper Darby HS this morning doing a favor and decided to see what Yelp recommended near me. There were the usual (Tank and Libby's....Sabrina's....Kettle....etc), but I'm a common guy by nature and wanted to get back to my corner, neighborhood diner roots. All these fancy places starting me to talking with a Main Line accent when I grew up in New Castle.... lol.... This place showed up, and although there weren't many reviews, they were all excellent. Plus, looking at the pics, this was the vibe I was looking for. Walked in and was greeted by Patty and Marla. Within 5 minutes, they made me feel like a regular, when I had never even been there before. I ordered a cup of coffee while I checked out the menu. I NEVER would've expected such a great cup of coffee from a corner spot. It was worthy of La Colombe. For breakfast I decided to have the 2XL egg mixed grill. This included...... get this..... two scrambled eggs (i added cheese), home fries (I added peppers and onions), two slices of thick slab bacon, two pieces of sausage, two slices of ham, and one piece of scrapple and toast on the side....... All this...... for only $11.95. While I was eating this hearty, delicious meal, in walks the owner, Jason. Young man is doing the damn thing. Owns this diner and the mechanics shop across the street. Very personable. So many of our young black men are out there doing positive things like this and you don't hear about it. I'll tell you this. I live 40 minutes from here but I will support and promise to have my a** in one of those chairs at least once a month.“
“Train Stop Restaurant has Great Customer Service and has plenty of regular returning customers that as soon as the returning customer walks into the business that the staff know what the customer is already drinking to start off there dine in experience.“
“I absolutely LOVE this place! I am a Vegetarian and I was impressed that they actually have very good Vegetarian options. Though I have only been there three times; but I must ADMIT, each time was a JOY and I will DEFINITELY return back and I HIGHLY recommend this Place! TOP NOTCH!Vegetarian options: Their veggie burgers are ON POINT! Loved it!“
“Champsssss is where it's at! Our whole office - Oxford Village loved ordering from Champs on the regular. I miss my BLT w/ egg and a fruit drink. They always answered the phone with so much love and energy and they would know it was us calling. Unfortunately we all eventually relocated but champs is truly missed.-Thank you so much for not just the delicious food but the expierence!“
“We were having a birthday breakfast for my girlfriend, and had the pleasure of having Basil as our server. He was absolutely AWESOME. As we are super particular about food, Basil helped us with suggestions on the menu, was absolutely hilarious, so helpful and made our entire day! She and I have both been in the customer service field for a very long time, and he again was just super great. Lemon ! Ricotta are phenomenal tooKid-friendliness: I would take my 12 yr old here no prob, the menu is very kid friendly even outside the kids menu“
“One of the very few places around where you can get food at a reasonable price. Unlike many they haven't raised their prices to an over excessive amount. Which is why they are getting the business. Other businesses may want to copy what they are doing instead of being greedy and over charging customers for food that should remain at a reasonable price for business.“
“I always get their lemonade fruit drink from them and its phenomenal, oh and i left money on the counter and went back 3-4 hours later and they returned it to me, at the time i didn’t even know i lost it, great honest people , thanks!!!!!“
“Such a super cute, local family owned business! With breakfast being my first favorite type of food, I decided to give them a try based off of a recommendation from a friend. I'm very glad I did.I called in a pickup order on a snowy Saturday morning. Yes, I know... breakfast is better eaten as soon as it's prepared. A&A is small; however, they do offer a dine in option.I told Michelle, pretty lady upfront with pink (my fave color) hair, I've lived here all my life and have driven by them a thousand times but it's a New Year and I finally made it! I usually check Yelp first for recommendations and they weren't there which is how I overlooked them. They do have very good Google reviews though.What I ordered:The Pork Grand Slam (they offer a turkey and beef option as well) it comes with sausage, 2 strips of bacon, eggs, your choice of grits or home fries and pancakes.I also requested an order of French Toast but they made waffles instead. It wasn't a big deal and the waffles were very good.Michelle advised they are adding smoothies and grab and go options to their menu for the morning commuters or anyone that wants a quick breakfast fix.The service was super friendly, the aesthetic is a whole Philly vibe, everything I ordered was flavorful and the cherry on top is... Their prices!!Please stop in and treat yourself!Cheers! ?“
“Food was so flavorful, hot and tasty! service was great, staff was kind and very polite. The food was absolutely the best that I had in a long time.Kid-friendliness: the staff goes out of their way to make sure kids are comfortable, have something to eat and or play with.“
“HOMEMADE SCRAPPLE… I did not know what was a thing. I am a scrapple snob when I go out to eat breakfast I ask what brand of scrapple do they carry? If it’s not Habbersett, I will not order it. Needless to say the scrapple was accompanied was 2 sunny side up eggs cooked perfectly with home fries and toast a little bit of shock as it’s $11 but for homemade scrap I guess it’s worth it.“
“Love this little neighborhood spot. Liz took our order and is a a total sweetheart-- and the world needs more people with her smile :) my partner loved his corn beef hash, the food was amazing, cooked perfectly, good home cooking with huge portions, and the prices are great. We will definitely eat here when we want a hearty homecooked breakfast again!“
“We (2) ate here on a Tuesday morning. We had no wait for a table. The service was very attentive and friendly. We ordered the Peach Cobbler French Toast, the Cinnamon Bun French Toast and a side order of bacon. Our server asked what our crispness preference for the bacon was, which I've never been asked before and it was served exactly as requested. The portions are massive and very flavorful and fresh. It is cash only, which we knew going in. Will definitely be returning to try more.“
“The Green Eggs Cafe offers a delightful dining experience with a creative twist on classic dishes. From their famous green eggs and ham to their indulgent French toast options, the menu is diverse and satisfying. The ambiance is cozy and inviting, making it a great spot for brunch or casual dining. However, it can get crowded during peak hours, so be prepared to wait. Overall, Green Eggs Cafe is worth a visit for tasty food and a charming atmosphere.The only downside that I see is you have to pay in cash and parking can be annoying.However, the food is top tier.“
“Let me dish out the deets on the Hollywood Diner – where the glitz of Tinseltown meets the comfort of classic diner grub.Now, hold onto your hats, folks, 'cause this place is no ordinary joint. It's a swanky oasis in a sea of mundane eateries, with vibes that scream retro-chic meets Hollywood glamour. From the neon lights to the jukebox tunes, every corner oozes with old-school charm.And let me tell you about the squad holding down the fort – the staff? They're the real MVPs. Friendly, attentive, and always ready to serve up a smile alongside your order.Now, onto the main event – the grub. This ain't your grandma's diner fare, folks. This is haute cuisine disguised as classic comfort food. Sure, it might not be your bargain basement breakfast joint, but let me tell ya, every penny is worth it for the quality you're getting.Let's talk breakfast – I went for the classic eggs Benedict, and oh boy, was it a game-changer. Picture this: perfectly poached eggs, velvety hollandaise sauce that'll make you wanna do a happy dance, and ham slices so thick, you'll think you've hit the jackpot. None of that measly paper-thin stuff here – we're talking proper, hearty slices that'll have you singing praises.So, if you're in the mood for a dining experience that's as unique as it is delicious, head on down to Hollywood Diner. Trust me, folks, you won't be disappointed. It's a taste of old-school glamour with a side of culinary excellence – what more could you ask for?“
“First time going last week and the breakfast of pancakes, scrambled eggs with turkey pattie sausage did .ore than hit the target. It was all I imagined! For now this will be my spot to order take-out breakfast. There is no dining in and few ill sorted chairs will you wait for your order. They don't take long and the place is very clean, also the staff is mannerly!“
“The owner is such a nice guy and this business has great food and great service i have known this man for over 40 years when he use to be at 60th Market in west philly the food is still the same good as always one of the few gems left in Philadelphia from yesteryear that never changed i go there at least once or twice a week Tony is a great guy and so is his business Tony Boys I give it 5 stars !“
“Really good breakfast sandwich! Typical corner store vibes with a good selection of snacks and drinks, and an atm. Service was friendly, and they offer a wide range of payment options including cash, card and Apple Pay. Definitely will be frequenting for breakfast, and I'd like to try their hoagies in the future as well“
“This place is classic south philly. The Sausage egg and cheese was cheap and delicious. The bun was both sturdy and yet soft. The eggs were fresh fried. And the sausage was salty and fatty and delicious as it should be.The coffee was only mediocre. But this ain't a place for hipster coffee snobs like me.“
“Been come here for forever Justin use to have the music pumping but haven't seen him I hope all is well but the breakfast always on a bean very welcoming wife and husband always welcoming an greeting with a smile great homestyle breakfast“
“You can tell they care about the customers. People kept walking in and treated everyone so well. My wife got the sausage and egg breakfast sandwich and said it was the best sandwich she’s ever had and she’s had alot. Though they forgot the spinach in my omelette she noticed without me saying and was so apologetic. One of the best services we have had and when we are back in Philly we will definitely return.Dietary restrictions: I’m on the keto diet and she was able to answer all my questions to help me figure out what I can eat.“
