We stopped for breakfast, having a small appetite. The server was very pleasant and allowed us to select a children's meal. The food was prepared correctly and served hot. The diner had a taste of history. We will go there again. read more

Nice diner. Great service. Good breakfast. We were there at 10:15AM on a Friday. The waitresses tag teamed when needed and our waitress was moving fast, Not lazy. Very friendly. We had a cinnamon roll with coffee to start. Amazing! We eggs, bacon, sausage and hash browns between the two of us. The bacon was smoked and meaty. The sausage has great country flavor, and the hash browns had a nice mix of baked and potato meat mix. This is a small diner with a local feel. read more

Fantastic service and delicious food. A perfect diner! The waitress was so nice and pleasant. Made the best chocolate malt. The hot turkey sandwich was wonderful and the place was amazing and everyone was so friendly. Definitely recommend it when you are in Hannibal, Missouri. read more

Good service the best in town great breakfast items everyone should try them biscuits and gravy the best around

Very disappointing. French toast was cold. We had margarine and cold, cheap syrup so that made it worse. Ham slice was like shoe leather. Not going back. read more

As a fan of Mark Twain, I chose to have breakfast here before starting my day in Hannibal. I was a little disappointed that it didn't have any references to Becky on the walls, but it definitely had the looks of a cafe, with its checkerboard floors and homages to the 50s here and there. I kept my meal simple and had bacon and eggs with wheat toast and hash browns. It was good enough to keep me going in the sweltering heat that was creeping around me from outside. The service was good and very attentive. I'd recommend this to anyone looking for a comforting breakfast. read more

Becky Thatcher's Diner - Bacon and Eggs - American Near Me - Hannibal, Missouri

The service was great and the food was pretty good. I got the Corned Beef Hash with over easy eggs. The eggs were cooked well, and you could tell the Corned Beef Hash was NOT canned. It tasted good, and the beef had been trimmed up well. Nothin' hangs me up quite like comin' across gristly or fatty beef! They did it well. Ambiance wasn't the greatest, but it was doable. read more

great service but they need to improve cooking frenchfries and oion rings but the rest is great but they should market themselves better promotion of busisness read more

Unique little gem. Simple menu executed quite well! Personally, the open faced turkey sandwich was awesome. Something this simple can be screwed up but they executed perfectly with the mashed potatoes to the turkey to the gravy. read more

Food: D Service: B Price: B The omelet was thin, and veggies weren't cooked long enough, which left them hard. The cheese was melted but chewy with no seasoning. All in all I wouldn't recommend this restaurant to anyone. Our pick read more

Was interested because of their homemade hash so we stopped in for a bite. We both ordered the hash and egg meal and while homemade, it wasn't what we had hoped for. It was OK...just not as good as we were expecting. As for the remaining parts of the meal, I have to admit the coffee was not good at all. In fact, I could not drink it. It was bitter and lacked a good coffee taste or aroma. On the plus side of the ledger, our server was very nice and we enjoyed our visit with her. Would we go back? Probably not. We got enough of the decor and the music from the 60's to our satisfaction. read more

Quick stop for a good diner breakfast! Reasonably priced. We will be back if we are ever in the area.

Food was wonderful, cooks in the back did there thing. In my honest opinion they deserves raises. The waitress wasn't half bad either. Overall 10/10 read more

Superb service and great diner food. Corned beef hash side would've been enough of a meal but had to pair that with a waffle. Waffle wasn't anything special (a little underdone didn't help) Reasonably priced for the portion sizes and a tourist town. read more

Simple place with relaxed atmosphere. We had fantastic service from Brooklyn. Food was delicious. The Buick had great seasoning and was especially flavorful. Nice small town diner vibe. read more

Having driven past Hannibal many times we decided it was time to have some breakfast & check out this historic town once and for all. After stopping at another restaurant and being told the wait was an hour we decided to go somewhere else & we ended up at Becky's. First thing we noticed as we walked in was how cramped the place was, all of the tables were basically on top of each other but we felt we had no choice but to stay at that point. We sat down and it took our server about 8 minutes to acknowledge us so it was a bad start. Eventually she came over, we placed our order & it took approximately 40 minutes to recieve our food which is pretty unacceptable to me. The meal we had ( Reuben & an Omelet ) was edible. With pretty poor service & being shoved in like sardines I think we will decline coming back next time we are in Hannibal. read more

Great little local diner. Good service good food large portions...too much food, to be honest. Noticed some good stuff for lunch and maybe we will try that the next time! read more

Was ok food. Not bad, not great. Definitely had better, but Hannibal has VERY LIMITED choices.

It was a typical old-school diner feel that i thoroughly enjoyed. Lots of locals where many of the patrons and staff knew each other. Food was great and served quickly. read more

bisquits & gravy best I've had in a long time! Loved the ambiance and service was great. Priced fine and a generous helping. I'd go back and recommend to others! Only reason not 5 stars is the hash browns weren't crispy enough. read more

Downtown Diner in Hannibal Mo. Authentic local establishment located in the heart of Hannibal. The very best ham steak I have ever had and considering I'am 83 that's saying something. My ham steak breakfast was excellent cooked perfectly and served with a smile . The service was great . My son had the two egg breakfast with bacon which was cooked perfectly. Couldn't ask for a more delicious breakfast. The local flavor is outstanding so yes, I highly recommend the Betty Thatcher restaurant. read more

Our server was nice and the place did seem a bit busier than they might have anticipated based upon the number of servers... but the food was just average at best. I wasn't sure my pancakes were fine when they got to the table because they were pretty blonde. They also tasted kind of gummy. Maybe it would have been better if I had something other than breakfast? At any rate, in a town called Hannibal that leans heavily into its affiliation with Mark Twain, I'm not mad to have stopped at a place called Becky Thatcher's Diner. read more

Service and food was excellent. Large quantity and creative menu as well as standards. I'd go back and recommend.

Best bacon I have had in a long time. Prompt and attentive service. The only issue was a drunk that came in and caused trouble. The manager handled it right away. read more

This is a little place that has big presence. This place was packed the whole time I was there. It isn't very big but people were in and out and waiting. Servers were super polite, fun to talk to, and attentive. Food was very good with good portions. Fun old time diner feel! read more

Poor service, tiny place, food looked greasy and cold. We left after what looked to be a homeless guy wandered in.

park on the street. it's cozy inside, the breakfast sausage was the best part. Service, our waitress was slow. People who arrived after us were served before us, our food was warm-ish. When we arrived, the place was full. There weren't half that number when our food arrived. We won't be going back. read more

I love this diner. I have such a great experience every time I go there. The service is outstanding and their food is amazing. They have the best milkshakes, burgers, sandwiches, fries, eggs, and pancakes I've ever had. Every fall, I look forward to their amazing pumpkin pancakes It's a very welcoming and friendly place to eat. If you are a local or even a tourist, this diner is so worth your time read more

Nice little home town dinner staff was very friendly!!! If your looking for a Breakfast place In Hannibal give it a try.

I was a little disappointed by this place given the other favorable reviews. It's a neat little place, clean and comfortable inside. I'm a sucker for good diner food, especially at breakfast. What we had, at least on the day we were here, was just okay. I went for "The Old Buick" which was a bed of home fries topped with onions and peppers, ham, sausage, bacon, cheese, gravy, and two eggs (over easy in my case). The potatoes were all pretty much burnt. The gravy helped mask the char and they were still okay taste wise. The eggs were cooked great, the gravy was kind of meh, the breakfast meats were all decent. My wife had the half stack of pancakes which she also thought were okay-decent pancakes, everything else on her platter was satisfactory. The service was kind of lacking, though it may have been an off day. No one was unfriendly and food service was relatively quick as far as taking our order and delivering it goes but they didn't give us silverware when we sat down and after dropping our food off it took another 5 minutes to get said silverware so we simply watched our food cool as we waited. A few other similar issues but nothing terrible. If I lived in the area I'd certainly come back and give them another shot. read more

Great breakfast while traveling through Hannibal. Especially impressed by Mandy, the waitress who single-handedly dealt with every table with friendly and efficient service. Five out of five. read more

This place was hopping when we were there about noon on a Friday in August. Great service- waitstaff checked back frequently. Retro diner- nothing fancy, but cute in it's own way. My husband had breakfast for lunch- most was fine, but the eggs were watery. I had the Midwestern omelet- also watery, and the diced meats inside were cold... the cheese wasn't even all melted. I should have said something, but they were super busy and honestly, after a bite of cold ingredients inside the omelet, I lost my appetite. The hash browns were just how I like them- done and crunchy. My advice- stick with the hash browns! read more
