We left Penny's Diner stuffed and happy! We went there for breakfast and it was low-key, just the way we like it. It was our first visit there and I'd love to go again if I'm in the area. I ordered the omelette plate with...Read More

Classic diner with great food and friendly staff. Lots of selection of dinner, breakfast and lunch, all delicious and cooked fresh on site. Desert and their malt milk shakes look amazing too. Open all the time with great vibes and scenery.

Our server was so sweet and accommodating. My son has very particular allergies and they managed to adjust my order so my son could eat off my plate without issue. The people are so sweet and genuine. The food is also just delicious!

The food was really good but it’s probably because the service was so good and the atmosphere was unbelievable. It’s like an old-school diner. It’s my new favorite place. I wish I could go more but I go whenever I’m in town.
