Service was slow and Server was not friendly. I felt my hamburger was cooked too well-done and even burnt. (I did not specify how I wanted it cooked, but I did not expect it to come out very well-done / burnt either). The Server did not readily offer to take it back for a re-do and instead called the Manager over and they questioned me about the cook on the burger. I thought it would be a simple matter of just re-doing the burger. I felt like they were trying to make me feel guilty for not specifying how I wanted my burger cooked in the first place. Apparently, the Customer is not always right at the Duncan House Diner. I have not been back since. read more

An interesting place, and as it opens very early in the morning, it's a great choice for breakfast. It's always been busy when we've been in. The vibe inside is old-fashioned, and features antique ranges, but it's definitely a no-frills type of place. The staff are on the ball, and get you seated quickly, with drinks being served fast, and with a smile. We were there for breakfast on Saturday morning at 8am, but have also been there for lunch (Their onion rings are amazing) i got the eggs benedict with bacon, potatoes on the side, I'm not sure what husbands was called, but it featured biscuits n gravy, 3 scrambled eggs, and choice of bacon or sausage. We both got coffee, and it's a diner, so they come around with the coffee pot constantly offering refills. Benedict was only average today I'm afraid, my egg yolk was jammy, rather than runny. The hollandaise was unusual, and quite salty - not awful, just not the best I've ever had, but equally it wasn't horrible. It would not stop me coming back. The potatoes - i believe they were frozen, and not fresh. Again, not awful, just not the best I've had. The bacon was good, the muffin was good too. I ate most of it, so obviously it was an acceptable meal. Husband ate everything but half a biscuit. I'd probably rate the food we had today at a 3, though i have had better food here, so this is not a rating set in stone, my experience was a 4 star, as the staff are lovely, and service is very good, and i will still come back. read more

What a great place for breakfast in Homer! Super cute. Super easy to find. And super friendly service. We had about a 10 minute wait which gave us time to look over the menu and some of the history on the walls. Once we were seated at a table our server quickly came over with waters and asked if we wanted anything else to drink. A previous review said it's self service for water - we did not experience that. I had an OJ and my husband at tea. The OJ comes in a massive glass, not the standard water cup size. For breakfast I had the burrito which was super good! I was a little hesitant when it said chipotle tortilla - I wasn't sure what that entailed. I'm still not really sure, but I can say the burrito tortilla was a little crispy which helped keep my burrito together when I ate it. The burrito comes cut in half, which makes eating it way more manageable. My husband ordered the biscuits and gravy which he also enjoyed. We will definitely be eating here again when we're in Homer. read more

I am very picky when it comes to how my bacon is cooked, and they cooked it perfectly for me. The pancakes were light and fluffy and the portions were generous. I have eaten there twice now and it was great both times. read more

Stopped on our way out of Homer for breakfast. Glad we did. Breakfast and place were great. Located in an older diner that looks authentic Alaska. After coffee we all ordered. My wife and I got the pick three breakfast. Others got the oatmeal, and another chicken fried steak with eggs. Everyone's eggs were perfectly over easy. My wife loved her biscuit and gravy. She said one of best biscuits she has eaten. Others loved their oatmeal with nuts and berries. The chicken fried steak with white gravy was good. Our server was good and kept on top of us. read more

One of the few places open for breakfast at 7 am. Yes, there was a sign that said no outside food or drink allowed. However, I have seen that sign countless times at various restaurants, but this is the first time that the staff didn't allow me to bring my organic latte (which they don't have) inside. So I was annoyed. I stood outside finishing my coffee. My sister in law walked up later and a different staff member gave her a mug to pour her outside coffee into so she could bring it inside. Once inside, our server was friendly. The menu was standard diner food. However, I would say that portion size was not abundant as advertised. The yogurt with fruit and granola was $9, and the serving size was half of a cereal bowl size, with maybe 4 blue berries and one strawberry sliced into 4 pieces and 2 table spoons of granola (doubt home made granola). My 12 year old daughter was still hungry, and she is a small eater. The combo plates for $15 are average size for one person. Taste was average, nothing special, nothing seemed home made. I'm from Southern California, where prices are high. This wasn't worth it. The ambiance was rustic with some antiques out front, which is cute. read more

Good food, good service, limited menu. Would love to see waffles on the menu. Gravy and biscuits were good.

Absolutely fantastic. I'm not really sure why this place has a 3 1/2 star rating. We got the schooner which my wife absolutely loved. I got the chicken fried steak. I'm used to a cubed steak but here at Duncan you get an actual legit steak smothered in delicious sausage gravy! This is a must stop in Homer read more

One of my favorite things to do while traveling is dining at local breakfast joints, not necessarily always the places spoken and written about the most. I walked by this place a few times and the aroma was definitely drawing me in. The parking lot was always pretty packed too. Yet, the overall Yelp rating was a cause for pause. I am so happy that I followed my instincts or my "gut" in this case , as it was a terrific experience - atmosphere, food, service and prices were all top-notch. I had the biscuits and gravy with reindeer sausage and eggs. Having lived in "the south" for about the last 25 years, I have become really fond of biscuits and gravy and this is one of the best I've ever had. The service was attentive, responsive and sweet. Finally, I just really loved the vibe. read more

This place is very decent. Nothing special, just your average diner, but there are SO many places that are very happy to serve you brown eggs, aka burned eggs. This place knows how to cook a proper egg, never had any issues with the eggs here, service is quick and the food is very yummy. read more

It's AK, it's the Last Frontier, you're in Homer, at the end of the freaken road -- we can probably agree to cut Duncan House a little slack and that's something I rarely if ever do but really this isn't some culinary capital of the world. I wasn't here expecting the most insane delish brekke I've ever consumed, it's a freaken diner people! No outside drinks allowed in, stopped me in my tracks. I tend to like to get coffee from a coffee shop and if I'm eating a sit down brekke, I'll bring it along. Not in this part of town, the sign is posted on the door but I missed it so we sipped our lattes out front until we were finished and ready to head indoors. I suppose with the way this trip was going, during this shoulder season with everything closed - I could have had a cup full of something way stronger than an oat latte from next door. I had the biscuit with gravy and eggs and bacon. Finished every last bite. My friend had the reindeer sausage plate, I tried a bite and left it in my napkin. I'll leave reindeer to decor around my house during the month of December. We were the only ones in there first thing in the morning, then a couple came in later. We were sat immediately and service was great. You'll be hard pressed to find open places to dine in this time of year, so if brekke or lunch is what you're looking for in a sit down environment this is a solid choice. read more

Burgers were very good, but best of all was the friendly and accommodating server we had. We had lots of change requests because of allergies and he was so sweet about making sure he got all of them correct. All of the staff was super friendly. read more

Great service! Great food in good sized portions, for breakfast there is no better place in Homer! Eclectic decor and easy going atmosphere!

Served tea in a cup with someone's lipstick stains. Went downhill from there. Very negative interaction with owner. Issue could have been resolved much better but he was not interested in hearing about what we experienced. Food mediocre at best. Many other great restaurants in the Homer area. read more

This was our first meal when we got to Homer. We had a very early flight from Fairbanks to get here and didn't get a chance to have breakfast so we were famished and needed to eat. First thing I found in yelp was Duncan House Diner and I am glad we gave it a try. First, for all the keto peeps, they have a High Protein breakfast which is what I ate. I love it when restaurants offer carb free options without having to go a la carte. The dish consisted of eggs with cheese, ham and reindeer sausage. I did get a side of hollandaise so it felt like eating Eggs Benedict without the English muffin. My dad had a biscuit and gravy dish and it looked good. Our meal was good and they kept the coffee flowing. The service was good. Our waitress was friendly and the let us sit and relax while eating and didn't make us feel rushed. Decor was like and old country diner feel. Very nice start to a great vacation. read more

My husband and I were looking for a good place to have breakfast together on our last morning in Homer. The food was delicious and ALL the staff was incredible. They made sure our coffee was always topped off and made us feel welcomed. There was a sweet, young gentleman (not sure his name, but had a ponytail) working hard and really did a great job. He made sure we had everything we needed and went out of his way to check to see if they had any cinnamon rolls, that I'd been craving. It was delicious! My husband had the chicken fried steak and he said it's the best he's ever had (that's a bold statement)! Thank you Duncan House Dinner! read more

Excellent food; wonderful menu options; professional staff; our 'go to' local restaurant in Homer, Alaska

I got a salad, that is all it was spinach, dressing, and croutons. Over priced, food was not good, it needs a face lift, old and out dated. Staff was not friendly, treated other customers, w more respect and helped me last, or told me to get my own drink. read more

Haven't been here in a while. Was very disappointed. Chicken fried steak was just hohum. The not sausage gravy was blah, toast and bacon over done and dry. read more

Great for breakfast , huge portions. Friendly staff . Plenty of parking fast service. Clean

Price gouging at its finest. the smallest portions I've ever seen and you will still leave hungry. And it's not very good food at all. Only in business to rip off tourists. Service is horrible. someone said that even locals avoid it apparently. Eat at your own risk. read more

We stopped by for a quick breakfast as I had an hour before needing to be at the airport. We waited for quite some time before politely asking the waitress if we could order, explainingour timeconstraint. Next thing I know, the manager is at our table accusing me of harassing his staff. I told him he was being presumptuous to which he responded by pointing to the camera. I wanted to suggest he review the video and LISTEN to what was said. Instead, I simply said thank you and left. Incredibly rude and disrespectful. Absolutely will never return and certainly would not recommend. read more

I searched online to find somewhere in homer that had country fried steak and eggs and came across Duncan's Diner. I ordered online and was give a 25 minute pick up for window, I got there in 15 and my food was waiting and ready to go despite that fact that they were busy. My food was warm and soo good. My husband got the eggs Benedict and side of French toast and he raves about it. It was very well priced and delicious I definitely will be going back the next time I stop on homer. Thank you for the wonderful service and great food. read more

Not one to post bad reviews, but this was not acceptable. My girlfriend, who is a military veteran, and I stopped in to eat, with her small service dog(in her box), after getting a recommendation from a local shop owner, saying they had recently re-opened. After we were seated, a man(who we found out later, was the owner), came to the table, and asked about the animal. We both said she had a service dog; he responded that he couldn't see a vest. He continued berating us, demanding information, to prove what we stated. I responded that federal ADA rules state clearly that he can only ask if it was performing its duty. He interrupted, saying that we needed to show proof, because DEC "provides his license". We again stated that it was a service animal. He then responded with a snotty "now that was easy, wasn't it", with no follow up apology. When I confronted him again, finding out that he was the owner, he stated he also had a disability, couldn't hear us telling him that it was a service dog, and he stated, again with a sarcastic tone "so, not all disabilities are visible, right?". I tried to explain calmly, that his attitude was unprofessional and he was out of line, and an apology was in order. He continued giving excuses about his actions, refusing to apologize. He was rude throughout. We left. We lost our appetite and he should be reported for harassing a disabled veteran. If you are a veteran, AVOID THIS ESTABLISHMENT. read more

Food was very good, it felt warm and cozy. The service was friendly and timely will definitely be eating there again!

Horrible customer service. Food never arrived and we asked the server several times where our order was we got a very unconvincing answer of "a few minutes". Tables all around the restaurant that were seated later than us were done with their meals and the servers never noticed we had not gotten any food. We finally got someone to check and were told that our meals had to be refired (most likely because they delivered our food to another table.) When we asked when our meals would be done, the answer was at least another 15 minutes and not much concern or offer to make things right considering we'd already waited 45 mins so we left. Very disappointing. read more

Good comfort food for a good price. If you come to Homer in the winter, on a weekend, this will likely be one of the only places you can get breakfast! It's a diner which means the toast is buttered and you pay at the front. Staff here is ridiculously kind and friendly. I got the breakfast burrito, with some modifications. It came out as TWO mini burritos, rather than one, large, unwieldy burrito you have to eat with fork & knife. I much preferred this setup, who wants a burrito you can't eat with your hands?! read more

Very nice staff! Helpful and quick even being short staffed- super yummy food! Great coffee!

No more waitresses. Have to order from the counter. Ordered the 3 pick half biscuit, 1 egg and Reindeer sausage. The sausage was 1.5 inches long. I inquired if this was a whole half of sausage. The cook-said it was a new brand if sausage. The cook yelled at us. When I apologized he said I was not forgiven. He walked away. He came back then I apologized again. Then he slammed the money we paid on the table in front of us. He told me to shut up several times. He said it was my fault the customers were waiting for their food now. He said he is the owner now. He stood over us yelling at us. So we had to leave and did not finish our breakfast. Last time we ever go to Duncan House. read more

Probably my favorite breakfast joint in Homer. They're only open for brekkies and lunch, and both are good. When I feel like being "good", I get the ham steak and eggs to cut back on the fat and calories a little. It doesn't work. The ham is huge and covers more than half of the plate! So, I get "bad" the next day and this is how I order: "CFS, OE, SD". They know me here since I lived in Homer for six years, and scribble down exactly what I said. Out comes a Chicken Fried Steak and eggs, Over Easy, Sourdough toast. Very good stuff! For Homer, the pig thigh is a good deal at 10 bucks, and the cow at 12. read more
