Late breakfast. I always enjoy this restaurant. Food is always delicious and the service is good too. It is a diner and old school vibes. I ordered the Hangover Panini and home-fries. I also had coffee, which is always delicious. I did order pancakes to go for my son. Plenty of parking. Handi-capped right in front if you need it. There is also a ramp or steps depending on your needs. There is a large dining area, separate from the main area. I have been coming here for many years. Nice breakfast spot. They serve lunch and dinner too. read more

First time here. Sam was super friendly and very attentive. The place is cozy, clean and lots of tables. I had breakfast and it was done per my request. Everything was so good - a bit pricey but well worth it. If you're ever in the area please stop by - it will not disappoint! I highly recommend it. read more

Deluxe Diner - Breakfast- Two Old Fashion Eggs Mixed with Home Fries with bacon and wheat toast. - Greek Near Me - Shillington, Pennsylvania

Hubby and I stayed in a hotel just behind this eatery. We flew into Reading PA to attend a funeral. When we flew in we were very tired (sleep deprivation) and starving. We just wanted to eat and crash. We were happy to see a restaurant we could walk to. We didn't know what to expect but were pleasantly surprised. This diner is reminiscent of a homestyle family restaurant. Our waiter (Stacy) was excellent! She not only made sure our table was well attended but she did this to all of her tables. I asked her for her recommendation between 3 meals. All were good but her favorite was the Chicken Parmesan. She did not steer me wrong ... it was delicious! This meal came with all you can eat soup and salad, pasta and dessert ($13.99). My husband had the chopped steak w/mushroom gravy (under $16.00), baked potato and all you can eat soup and salad. The service was excellent, food pretty darn decent and the decorum holds your attention (signs and pictures). The next day we returned for a quick dinner. Again the server was excellent (Sara) and the meal pretty good (liver & onions and veggie stir fry .. soup and salad bar included). Even though our hotel offers complimentary breakfast we will return for breakfast before checking out of our hotel in the morning. Recommendation: Yes! read more

This place has gone down hill. When the new owner took over it was good. Also for the amount that is charged it is not worth it. The omelets are terrible and always burnt. The omelet is cooked on the griddle, it's thin as paper and tastes terrible. The bill was way way too much for what was purchased. They have one or 2 servers that are good. We will not return. Food is horrible read more

I believe Deluxe Diner is under new management. I am very impressed with their all you can eat salad bar and variety of options to select as your meal. They also offer all day breakfast. The diner offers both booths and tables and the environment is spacious and welcoming. The portion sizes of the entrees are large. You will not be disappointed! If you have an allergy, you can make modifications to your food as well. I am so happy to have a quality diner right down the road. I would definitely recommend! read more

Zack and the staff do an absolutely phenomenal job. They continue to add new items, while keeping the quality and integrity of the menu in tact. Food, service, quality are just great. So great, it's hard to get a table some days. read more

I'm fond of the ample and affordable breakfast options starting early enough that I can stop before starting work. Quick service too. Recommended. read more

Tasty breakfast and friendly service every time we go there. Plenty to eat and the coffee is good too. I would definitely recommend.

We were there today for the first time for a late lunch/early dinner. The food and service were exceptional. Even the hostess that seated us was warm and friendly. I would have given it 5 stars however, the cashier was rude, condescending, and overall not a nice person. Either take some happy pills or get a different job. Life's too short not to be happy. read more

The breakfast we had was only exceeded by the cleanliness and friendliness of the staff. By the time we're seated, we had been greeted and welcomed by 4 people, including the owner, who stopped by a few times to make sure everything was to our liking. We will always stop back at the Deluxe every time we are near Shillington! read more

Flavor was excellent! Serving size was very good. New management and wait staff were attentive and friendly. Prices were good too. Check them out! read more

IGNORE the old reviews, this diner is under new ownership since November 2023. Today was my second visit, breakfast this time, and I'm just as happy as I was when I had lunch here. There was a nice crowd, which is nice since the previous owners had really let the place deteriorate and the mostly empty parking lot discouraged me from coming back. Breakfast was eggs, meat, hash brown and toast all under 10 bucks. If you like this place, please post a positive review to boost the average score the previous owners let behind. read more

Stopped in on a weekday for their lunch specials, appropriately 2 weeks ago. No sandwich with beverage specials. Saw a chicken pot pie special but wasn't in the mood. Decided on their Italian spaghetti ( Not Greek) which came with soup and salad and a luncheon sized portion of spaghetti with 3 nice sized meatballs. I also asked for a bread basket which was 2 thick pieces of Italian bread and some butter packs. My soup and salad was your average diner variety which was acceptable. Digging in my S and MB's, my stomach reacted to the sauce as it might have not been kept at the correct temperature or not fresh? Who knows?? My stomach started to ache and felt like severe weather was happening. I slowed down and started to realize that I was now in a serious situation. The smart solution is to NOT eat here anymore and thus will hopefully never experience this terrible stomach pain. read more

Nothing to get excited about, typical diner food, server ok, not real friendly, seemed stressed. We made the mistake of asking for a booth by the window and the young boy who said he owned the place got really up-set ...ha-ha, so I guess you just keep your mouth shut and set where he puts you ! LOL...I wouldn't recommend it or go back. Atmosphere was very subdued. Blah !! read more

I don't live in the area, let me tell you my perspective as someone who travels and has eaten in many different places. I'm no food critic, but let me tell you.. We (my family and I who are traveling around right now) come in and the front desk older woman wasn't paying attention so we just sat down at a booth. The glasses were so unclean and I was so thirsty but I felt too sick to drink because the glasses were dirty inside and outside. Our waitress was nice which is a plus I guess? However, the food was bad but the person who was sitting and checking out was very nice. The people were nice but the food wasn't the best. It's a half and half experience. read more

This place is like Ryan Howard. It has a few hits, but way more misses. And it's older than dirt. Seriously, there are some aspects of this place that are in dire need of an update. For one, the website. On the front page, there's a special offer of the month - come in with more than four people and receive a 10% discount! But just a heads up, the offer expires July 2013. The first time I was here, which was a few years ago now, I decided on an omelette with cheese. It came out with literally two Kraft singles draped on top that weren't even melted. It kind of scarred me a bit, but I decided to give this place another go. Maybe it was just an inexperienced cook? Well, I'm happy to report that the cook has learned something over the years. While he's still plopping individually wrapped slices of processed cheese directly on top the omelettes, they now come out melted. So that's a plus. Really, this wouldn't be an issue if there was enough cheese for every bite. The idea of mixing the cheese inside the omelet is that it's evenly spread out. Just look at my picture to see what I'm talking about. Service is good, I think? Perhaps too good. The server was quick to pre-bus the table (a good thing), but she hastily took dishes away with food still on them - food I had still planned on eating (a not so good thing). She didn't ask if I was still working on it, just swooped by and it was gone. Ok then. It wasn't all bad. The ketchup was good. The icing on the cake was the lady who rang me up at the register. Initially she was sitting nearby at the counter eating her lunch. As I stood there waiting to pay, she sprung into action. With a big mouthful of food still in her mouth, she was able to ask me how my meal was - barely. Tiny bits of food were propelled from her mouth and glistened in the sunlight as they hurled towards me. +1 star for the home fries. Even devoid of seasoning, the texture was spot on. Perfect balance of crispiness and tenderness. read more

AVOID AT ALL COST! Not even worth one star! We went at 5pm on a Saturday night. There were less than 5 tables sat. We both had the salad bar with our meal. It was ok, but nothing exciting. My husband had the lobster bisque that looked like it had been in the warming pot all day. I ordered the crabcake, broiled. It was barely warm. The baked potato was still hard. My husband ordered the Turkey and stuffing and mashed potatoes. When it was served it had only Turkey and mashed potatoes and gravy on his plate. He reminded the waitress who took it away and returned with a new plate with nearly frozen stuffing and Turkey on one plate and the mashed and gravy on a small plate. She asked how things were and we told her not good and what the issues were and she asked if they should remake our food. No! We are leaving. I was holding out hope for a new and improved Deluxe, but they won't be seeing us again. read more

It's under new management and all I can say is whateva you got going on, keep it going. Your chef is a keeper. The Mediterranean Chicken Salad with extra cucumbers was so yummy. The cheese burger was so juicy, like a smash burger, love the homemade chips. My husband loved the western omelette with extra cheese. The customer service was excellent. The atmosphere is nice too. Feel like you're at your home family restaurant!!! read more

Great service food just not up to par. Good price just need to work on the food. I mean it's just breakfast. Server did her best to make things right but she didn't cook. Maybe I'll give it another try since it's very close to me read more

I was nervous about this place due to the 2.5 Yelp stars but this place is not too bad and it was actually very good!! We stopped for breakfast with my mother in law. Stick to the basics and you will be fine. The food was actually great! The service was excellent and they were busy when we arrived. The presentation of the food was good too. If you want a nice little diner breakfast...this is it! Nice for senior citizens too...very friendly and accommodating. There is a ramp to come in if you have a wheelchair. read more

Everything you think about a diner being a place to get a delicious, home cook style meal, throw it out. This place had overcooked, flavorless vegetables and overcooked flavorless fish filet. The service was okay but it was obvious they had their regulars. There was not much around the hotel to eat, so our choices beyond breakfast were limited. Get in the car and drive to one of the many highly rated diners not too far away. read more

I do not recommend going here for dinner. One of the worst fish fry I've had. Very little fish and a thick layer of breading. Four other families from our team went as well and not one parent had anything positive to say about their meal. read more

My water polo team and I (go eagles) were staying at the Best Western Plus, right across the street from Deluxe. We were looking for a place to eat in between games, and this seemed like like a decent place. I showed up and it wasn't very crowded, so finding a seat was easy. The menu was simple to read, and we ordered food (and a Pepsi) without a problem. The food came quickly, but all the food wasn't there. I ordered steak and eggs, and I got eggs and bacon. I let the waitress know and she claimed I never ordered steak. But everyone else at my table witnessed me ordering steak. After more waiting, the steak finally came. The food was good and filled me up, but other factors left me disappointed. The check came and it read $30. For steak and eggs. This is when I knew something was up. I asked the waitress about it, and she proceeded to add the total in front of me. "So this is $3.99 for the home fries." She told me. "But home fries are included with the steak and eggs," I replied. "No they're not, do you want me to show you the menu again?" Of course I did. So she brought the menu over and I showed her the steak and eggs, which came with home fries. As much as I wanted to shout out "TOLD YOU SO!" I managed to stay under control, and thrive off of the satisfaction of her poker face and, "My mistake" reply. Somehow the total got down to $15 dollars, which it should've been in the first place, and I was able to leave a satisfied man. But I still regrettably left a tip. Overall, the food was five stars. Good quality for a fair price. It was the dissatisfactory service that brought it down to three stars. And on top of all that, they forgot the Pepsi I ordered in the beginning. read more

Well, one star is being kind. Probably the most disappointing meal I've had in years. I thought I'd play it safe and order the hot roast beef sandwich with fries. Made the mistake of getting gravy over it. The flavorless gravy was thick as wallpaper paste and looked like mud. I ate about half of it after I scraped the gravy into a corner. Their homemade pies were bad too. Avoid this dining nightmare unless you're staying at the Best Western without a car. read more

Been going here for years. Always get breakfast. I'm glad they are joining the mutiny during Wolfs shutdown suggestion.

Thoroughly disappointed with my meal: I got a cheese omelet, which was just an omelet with a slice of cheese on top (not to mention it was super small) I assumed that since all other diners I've been to, omelets include toast and hash-browns, that it came with hash-browns: wrong. They were extra, and served on a super small plate and were super greasy. read more

Every single time that I call for pick up they never get my order right I can tell them specifically how I want my food and they do whatever they want I'm not ordering from there no more besides that food is just ok not the best read more

Not good at all! Horrible customer service, half made food (no cheese on omelette, no sugar for coffee, no utensils, etc)) No seasonings on anything! Racist cashier! They really need to do better cuz $52 worth of food sucked. I couldve gotten better food at the Dollar tree. I would give them 0 stars if i could. read more

One of our more frequent stops for breakfast out. Great value in their breakfast specials, and my mother loves their Spanish Omelette special when it's available. Their daily special (varies) includes coffee and is usually under $5. Potatoes are usually good, and you have the option to add onions to them, however this is really hit-or-miss. Sometimes they onions are added too late and barely cooked, so I stopped asking for them. Other than that though, the food is consistently good, service is fast and friendly, and their dining area is sizable enough you usually get seated immediately. I don't eat at diners for lunch/dinner often (they always disappoint me), but their Greek Gyro is very good. read more

Hubby and I gave it a shot for breakfast and we were quite satisfied. Service was pleasant and efficient. The food came out a little slow but that was not our servers fault. We are both in the food business so we scrutinize everything. We will visit again. To the other reviewers, This is a DINER and not a country club so either embrace the casual culture or find the nearest 5 star restaurant if u want to be spoon fed. read more

Stopped here after staying at the Best Western and the food was dry and under seasoned. Glad this was cheap because it wasn't great.

Got the Lancaster Pike special was horrendous, the highlight of the meal was the toast. The potatoes were still raw, the bacon was mediocre The ham even worse, my family got pancakes and they were drier then the Sahara. Stay clear away from this place as the hospitality isn't their, and their food not up to par read more

DO NOT GO! 1- booth or table? Booth plz. Go pick one is the hostess response. Ummm...none are clean 2- waitress complained about how many tables she has and dropped "shit" in front of us (children included). 4 tables...really? 3- asked for water w lemons. Lemons were soft and one looked used! OMG 4- soggy uncooked French fries 5- Mediterranean salad; oil for dressing disgusting, my olives all had pits but the most delightful part was the brown lettuce and wet squishy cucumbers. I ate the chicken in the top. 6- my sons friend was the smartest and luckiest bc she ordered a hotdog. BAD JUST BAD...literally afraid to eat and not sure why we even stayed. read more

It's ok. Stopped by here an for early dinner while on a road trip. Nothing I would I drive out of my way for, but for the price point this place can't be beat. Food was good and the service was prompt. If your cruising through town and looking for good cheap eats, give this place a try. read more

Always friendly. Good food and great service. Always keeps your coffee cup full. Breakfast all day.

We went for a quick dinner the other night. We got there around 5:30 and it was busy, but not crazy. We were seated quickly. Our waitress didn't come over to greet us for 10 minutes. Once she did, we gave her drink orders. After 15 minutes we still had no drinks, so the hostess brought us water. My husband had to ask her for his coffee. We ordered basics, kids got pancakes and french toast and my husband got a burger. I got a chicken caesar wrap. None of these things are complicated and yet 40 minutes later we have no food and our waitress did not come to check on us, fill our water, refill his coffee, nothing. So we asked the hostess if this was a normal wait. Instead of answering "No" right away, she sat there and thought about it. Then went to check on our orders. Our food came out 5 minutes later and it wasn't worth the wait. The pancakes were bad. I can't describe them. It's hard to screw up pancakes and these were just plain not good. The french toast was small and sad. My fries were not cooked so I sent them back. My husband's burger looked disgusting. He ate a few bites. We had been here before and didn't have this terrible an experience but after this last visit, we'll never go back. read more
