Uncle Charlie’s Diner — Weymouth, MA
Uncle Charlie’s is the kind of diner that reminds you why simple food, done right, never goes out of style. It’s classic New England comfort—no gimmicks, no trendy spin, just solid cooking and friendly people who care about what they serve.
Breakfast is where they shine. The eggs are always cooked right, the bacon’s crisp, and the home fries hit that perfect balance between soft and golden. Pancakes come out fluffy, not heavy, and the coffee stays hot and strong. You can taste the consistency that only comes from people who’ve been doing this for years.
Lunch keeps the same energy. The turkey club is stacked right, the burgers taste homemade, and the soups are always hearty. It’s the kind of food you finish without realizing how fast you were eating.
Service is warm and quick. The staff makes you feel like a regular, even if it’s your first time. You’ll see the same faces behind the counter day after day, and that says a lot about the place.
Do’s: • Get breakfast—you’ll see why locals love it. • Try the home fries with onions. • Ask for extra pickles—they’re surprisingly good.
Don’ts: • Don’t expect fancy plating. This is comfort food, not fine dining. • Skip the rush hour if you want a booth—it gets packed on weekends.
Uncle Charlie’s is a diner for people who appreciate the basics done perfectly. It’s honest, consistent, and worth coming...

First" of all, where does Charlie find the adorable wait staff? They're friendly, prompt, and....well really, really cute.
Now the food. Before our breakfast came I was looking at the Home Fries, that's always a good indicator..... they looked kind of funny, all square and even... I thought they looked dry and funky... I was about to find out different.
Our waitress said: "the home fries have onions, is that ok?" Both of us are onion lovers so there was no objection there. I ordered two over easy, links and a grilled English. My date ordered two scrambled with cheese, bacon and a grilled English.
First of all, those square home-fries were the most tender, perfectly seasoned, tastiest home-fries I've ever had..... EVER ...... they come with just a spattering of finely chopped onions.
Second... Charlie's choice of sausage links and bacon were superb!
Eggs Scrambled were fluffy and delicious. My over-easy eggs were cooked to perfection
Grilled English... how in the world could these grilled English muffins taste so much better than all the rest that I've had???
This fella really knows what he's doing. We make it a point to go out and try new breakfast spots... This is BY FAR the BEST SPOT we've ever found and is now our favorite.
P.S. ....I just have to be careful to keep my eye on the food (sorry... they're just...
Read moreThis is the one place you can go to that is a local place that’s been around a long time. Service is good. Food is better. Their hash brown potatoes are the best we have ever had. My ultimate fav is the sausage links and their waffles. It’s a self seating establishment with an open feel all the way to the kitchen. This is not an ASD friendly place though because it tends to get very noisy so if you are looking for a quiet place this isn’t it. It is a place you can go with just yourself or your entire family and really love the food. Bring cash though or you can use the atm outside because they don’t take plastic. If you come on Saturday or Sunday there is often a wait so be prepared for it and it’s worth it. We used to come more but moved far and always are excited to be able...
