10/10 classic American diner. Been in operation since the 1940’s and stands the test of time. Friendly, cozy, fast service without feeling rushed, yummy food, and cheerful, friendly wait staff and owner. I came here for the first time today with my husband and 8 year old son and we loved it and will become regulars. It’s a place where everyone seems to know and truly like one another, and we felt comfortable and welcome vibes as soon as we stepped in. The prices were very reasonable, and the (bottomless) coffee is very good and hot and I can be particular about my coffee. My son got the chocolate chip short stack with bacon and hot cocoa and he was a very happy camper. I got a grilled cheese with tomato and bacon, my husband got egg/pork roll sandwich on a toasted roll. We shared the cream chipped beef on toast. The food was very satisfying and yummy. It’s a local gem.

The food was good and it wasn't my issue. My issue was pricing. Google has clear pricing listed and I completely understand if I add items they can be an upcharge to my item(S). Per google the two egg eye opener is $9.99, I paid 19.49. I did add onions, tomatoes and cheese to my eggs then was told my tea was a separate charge. My breakfast meat for the platter was turkey sausage was my meat of choice. I'm still not understanding what the extra 10 bucks (minus taxes) was for. My 19.49 was the charge after they took off $3 because I was told google should not have a menu with prices on it. Something isn't adding up and also the lady at the door was hard or hearing so I felt like I was being rude speaking so loud to her. Please get clearer prices that match google especially when it was mention that you deal with google only and corrected items with them 3wks ago.

Parking is not easy, so better to leave your car at street parking. We ordered omelette, Fried chicken and chicken grilled sandwich. Now hash brown came with omelette was not fresh and smelly. Waitress deducted that from check. Fried chicken was tasty but breast piece was cold inside. Coffee and the sandwich was good. Waitress was nice and efficient. They only accept "cash", there is a ATM inside.

Probably the greatest diner on the planet. So many good memories here. Sad to see some pretty stuffy reviews on here.

Stuffy people don’t belong at Bob’s, so just go somewhere else you Panera eating, chain -restaurant-going normies. I want your seat.

For everyone else…You want crispy potatoes? Ask, you get ‘em. You want extra, extra, extra crispy scrapple? You get it. You want over easy eggs? You get ‘em. You want more coffee? Look down, you just got filled up. You want a server that cares about you? Go here. You wanna talk to your neighbors? go ahead.

Hungover and need a cure? This is it!

Had a good date that stayed over? You will know if they are marriage material if they can hang at Bob’s.

Yeah, it’s cozy and packed, because its GOOD! People go here to eat well! The staff and chef are wonderful people.

Simply put, you get what you want. Nothing fancy…and it’s not supposed to be…but just damn good diner food.

Bob’s Diner is the best diner ever. If you know, you know....

I hardly leave bad reviews .... but today first and only visit to Bobs diner was horrible ... especially since Iam in that restaurant industry! I walked in to it being busy (never a problem for me) and their style was self seating ..Perfect we had 1 person ahead of us. Finally was able to sit only to be ignored no one came over to us ... after observing 2 additional tables had set themselves Along with 3 ppl that sat at the counter ! I watched them get full service and yet here I am at a table still waiting after about 15-20 mins .. as someone was bringing out food to a table that sat after me ask was someone helping us ..after I was about to leave.. my standards are never high but due to me being in the industry . But today was the top worst place on my books ..I can definitely go on to the service but I’m getting upset even more as I am writing this so I will end this as to say I will not be returning to this...

Bob's Diner is a must visit! My family and I were in Philadelphia for only four days and each day we stopped in for a bite to eat! Our waitress, Agnes, was the sweetest! Not only did she make us feel welcomed, but she also suggested places in Philadelphia to visit during our stay. She was our waitress for three of our four visits and she & other staff made our dining experience excellent.

Breakfast is served all day and the menu has a lot of options! Their coffee is great and Agnes made sure we always had our cups filled. My son loved his Mickey Mouse shaped pancake. If you're looking to have a cheesesteak, their Mac N' Cheesesteak & Bob's Steak Sandwich are both delicious! The fries are also tasty and we really enjoyed their bacon cheese fries. I also reccomend their fried mozzorella! Bob's Diner has a true diner feel and we'll be sure to return again next time we visit...
