    Daytripper latte
    Marlee S.

    Lovely breakfast/lunch spot in grapevine! The food was so good. We got the chicken biscuit, Reuben, and chicken fried steak skillet, all were delicious! We also got a few different lattes; they were good but a little bit too sweet (day tripper latte wasn't all the way mixed either). Our server was amazing and made great suggestions. I also want to shout out the hostess for getting us and everyone else who was waiting outside for a table in quickly. She made sure to update us frequently and she was very friendly. We will definitely be back!

    Chicken fried steak
    Brandy E.

    We were very impressed. Everyone greets you when you walk in. The staff is so nice and friendly even other waitstaff will stop by your table and ask if you need more coffee or drinks. My husband never ran out of tea which is a job it self! Larry was our waiter and he is the best! I had the chicken fried steak with fried potatoes, eggs, and fruit. Is was hand breaded, so tender, tasty and huge! I cut half of it off and gave it to my husband. He loved it too. He said his biscuits were light and fluffy. He said breakfast was wonderful and it was the best breakfast he had in a long time and that's saying a lot! He is a nit picker and always complains and he loves this place. I highly recommend coming here.

    Now this was a pleasant surprise. I grew up down the street and waffle way has always been here. Pretty strange walking in and it being gone. But this place? Amazing. The food, service and unsweet tea were great. The biscuits were some of the best I've ever had. Also the chicken was fried to perfection. They have a massive menu so you're bound to get what will satisfy your brunch needs. Can't wait to make it back!

    Veggie scramble, one biscuit with cream gravy, fruit bowl

    This place is like your personal chef cooked breakfast for you! The food is fantastic and the service is top notch! My first trip here but friends and family have raved about it. Of course I wanted to try it all but that wasn't possible. Deliciousness- veggie scramble, eggs Benedict, perfect potatoes, best ever biscuits, and a light, fluffy waffle were soooooo good. Thank goodness my partner in crime was with me so I could try everything! Mackenzie was delightful in helping us with choices and service. Owners Jenna and Geno (sp?) are the nicest people. Can't wait to go back!

    The remodeled interior is adorable, with 70s‑style retro tables and chairs blended nicely with modern walls, flooring, and booth colors. All the staff were very friendly, and when we were unsure what to order, they asked about our preferences and recommended dishes that suited us perfectly. My husband chose the migas, and I had the smoked‑salmon scrambled eggs. Both were delicious and very satisfying. Other breakfast diners on the same street feel overpriced, but this place offers fair and reasonable pricing, which we really appreciated.

    It's still a fairly new place, but we just tried it for the first time! It's a breakfast/ lunch only restaurant. The menu has a lot of good selections, however, I was surprised to see they don't offer omelettes. A very friendly place where we were greeted to seated immediately. Larry took care of us, did a great job. Pricing was in line with this type of place, but a little high for what I feel breakfast should cost. I got the All-Star skillet, at the cost of $17. It was two eggs, chopped bacon, sausage with onions and green peppers. However, it was about 50% small cube pieces of potato. I felt like there was way too much potatoes, and not enough of everything else, especially for $17! However, the presentation and flavor was good. My wife got the biscuits with gravy, which she said was excellent. Mine came with two large pancakes, which were also very good... served with hot syrup! There are windows on two sides, making it well lit. Everything looked brand new and clean! Definitely a small diner atmosphere. We liked it, however, we did not feel that it was anything which set it apart from many other places like this in Grapevine. As I was disappointment with my skillet dinner, that will likely not encourage me to come back. However, that doesn't mean you shouldn't try them!

    Laurel Canyon Benedict
    Rich J.

    We had driven by this place a couple of times, but didn't hear much about it until a friend recently recommended it. We went in for breakfast today. Our server Jillian was excellent. We had the biscuits & gravy and the Laurel Canyon Benedict and both were very good. The coffee is superb! The new decor is a huge upgrade from the previous restaurant. The owners are actively involved in the day-to-day operations. They seem to have a really good thing going. Keep up the great work!!

    This place was fantastic! The food was delicious and the service was excellent. They're a well oiled machine - everyone working together. They're super attentive. The place is clean & well organized. We will be back!

    Imagine an old building, maybe an old Waffle House, that's been a few different restaurants over the years -- that's what it looks like when you pull up to Daytrip Diner. Not the most exciting first impression. But don't stop reading yet, because what's inside is actually really charming. I wasn't impressed with the outside, but the inside was everything I hope a diner would be: hardwood floors (except for the outline of the restaurant where there are charming tiles), modern booths that look like old-school booths, and tables and chairs that look like teak wood, another nod to mid-century furniture. The waitress was considerate, and engaging the whole time we were there. I never accept straws, and she got it, "Help save the turtles," she said. And I acknowledge her by relying, "This is exactly why I don't accept straws." We both understood each other. I am not much of a breakfast person, and the first time I come to a new restaurant I order scrambled eggs. This is my test. Daytrip Diner passed the test! The eggs were cooked perfect, and tasty. So many time scrambled eggs are over cooked and dry, but not here. This was a great experience and I look forward to coming back soon.

    Nestled in Grapevine, Daytrip Diner is a nice option when trying to get away from the big hotel experiences nearby. The wait staff were very friendly and were honest with the recommendations. The food was fresh, hot, and really good. When in Grapevine, I definitely plan on going back!

    Blueberry pancakes with lemon curd
    Nancy P.

    Amazing food and service! I had the Alamo skillet and upgraded($) to blueberry pancakes with lemon curd- sooo good.

    Biscuits & Gravy Plate

    Staff is extremely helpful and friendly. The menu is varied and complete. The food was exactly what I expected and very good quality. They offer Cholula Hot Sauce, which for me personally is a plus. The retro vibe of the place is very welcoming and the staff in general works very well together.

Normally, I don't consider people from St. Louis to be credible deli evaluators, but I was desperate and made the hour drive to Grapevine. We got there at 11:15 and the line was nearly to the door. Within 30 minutes, it was well out into the street. That was a promising sign. The sandwich menu covered the entire wall over the counter. Lots of non-New-York sandwiches like Cubans, gyros, etc, but over in the left corner were the classic Ruebens and pastramis. I went for the latter. A REAL NY deli usually has a few soups like split pea and chicken noodle and matzoh. No soups. Bummer. They had a half dozen sides - 3 kinds of potato salads and a few slaws. I went with the German potato salad. The drink option was spartan - they tossed a styrofoam cup at me and pointed to the soda fountain. The pastrami sandwich was OK for Texas. A SUPER pastrami sandwich on hard rye can get me moaning like Meg Ryan in "When Harry Met Sally" -- only I don't have to fake it. The German potato salad was watery and bland - I should have gone with the mustard potato salad. Turnaround was on the slow side. Napkins = paper towel roll on table. Flimsy plasticware. The overall vibe was affordable utilitarian. I'll give the sandwich a 4, everything else a 3. Next time I'll drive the extra half hour to Cindi's.

The Texas chili had a good level of heat, but it was a bit gritty, as if it may have been slightly over-seasoned.

What really elevated the experience was our waiter, Cameron. He was friendly, attentive, and offered great suggestions. He kept our drinks full without us ever having to ask, refilling our tea at least five times. His service alone took the experience from a 3-star to a 4-star visit.

I would probably give it a B. We did not try the chili, and it is a chili parlor, so shame on us. That said, the sampler platter was nice. It is worth a return trip for another good band. The service was very attentive without interrupting the music - it was a great balance.
