    Surprising to walk in on a Friday night and see this place empty. The decor was your classic 50's diner. Pictures of iconic performers from the era adorned the walls. Plenty of checkerboard and chrome accents filled the rest. I had to meltdown patty and I have to admit, the best part of the meal were the Galaxy fries. They were crispy and well seasoned. I'd come back but only for the fries

    Great service, and frankly that and the ambience are the only reason this place gets a 3 star. Took 30 minutes longer than the rest of the food to get my milkshake, and the flavors really just blended into vanilla instead of mint and raspberry... I was not impressed by their vegetarian selection, a lot of stuff was either made with meat broth or had bacon hidden in it. I finally settled on the zucchini sticks and they gave me back clearly two different types of fried zucchini-- one was round little medallions and one was long and thin like a mozzarella stick. Two different batters, two different cuts, it really did not look appetizing.

    The food wasnt really all that great at least the server was nice if I were in Flagstaff I would check out other restaurants. The whole place was just off and mostly empty. The food wasn't all that worth it sad to see a historic route 66 restaurant in this state.

    Ah! I love this place! I lived in Flagstaff during middle school (20 years ago) and this was a go-to spot back then for weekend family breakfast and after school fries anf milkshakes with friends. Coming through Flag moving to Phoenix I was so happy to see it's still here! Food has remained the same yummy, greasy diner food, but the prices have definitely gone up. I love the cacophony of celebrity photos on the walls and the vibes are right out of Grease.

    So this place we went hoping for just simple breakfast. The ambience was set like an old diner. The food which is OK. I had an omelette and it was just nothing special. My friend had the waffle which she thought was just OK. The service was good though.

    I ordered one of the limited edition holiday meals- beef burgundy - and it was delicious! I didn't expect such a delicious and elevated dish at a diner but I was impressed. They had a lot of options for hot cocoa which I was obsessed with and had to order the French vanilla hot cocoa! I also ordered a root beer and it was a classic old fashioned styled root beer and I couldn't get enough!! The service was really great my server was a champ working all by herself as a server! The diner itself is super old school 1950s diner and it's adorable. Definitely stop here if you're on Route 66 or visiting flagstaff

    Dad's heading back down the mountain soon and I'm always sad to see him go. But one thing we have started to do is our traditional good bye breakfast at Galaxy Dinner. This morning I had French toast with eggs and bacon, which dad shared his potatoes with me. And Dad got the corn beef with the toast and eggs. Unfortunately we had to get it changed out since they mix bell peppers with their corn beef, but we got bacon instead and it worked. A great breakfast to get dad down the mountain! And as always we'll be back again! (If you've never seen Galaxy Dinner's neon, highly recommend eating here too, it's so cool!)

    Maybe you're an east coast gal like me craving diner food from a greasy spoon in New Jersey? We had a delicious breakfast here. The potatoes alone made me nearly weep. You just don't get potatoes like that everywhere. If you're in Flagstaff or on your way to the Grand Canyon or Sedona stop in!

    It's a cute diner and we went here for dinner. Fast service and good food. He got the fish basket and I got the turkey platter. Maddie talked us into getting a milkshake as well. They have 100+ flavors to choose from, he got coffee and I got Orange Colada. The food and the shakes were both delicious. If nothing else, one here and get a milkshake!!!

    They were welcoming when you go into the establishment. There's signs everywhere that say no photos no videos. The server didn't really know the menu or know the shake menu. Food is typical diner food but doesn't have that wholesome diner feel or taste. Price point is something you'd expect out of an actual restaurant not a diner the fact between two people you spend 60$ and ask for a tip. Save yourself the effort and just go to in n out you get more food better service and the staff that are cleaning the tables their rags don't look like they haven't been changed since the 50's. This place could have the most potential especially the area and history but it's just a thing of the past with sub par food. And horrible service

    The service was very slow. The fresh fruit was very old. It also didn't have any ambiance. You can find better.

    Does anyone know why this diner closed? I loved going there when I was in Flagstaff! The staff was always very friendly and the waffles were to die for!

    Not sure why they closed but they have just reopened, writing this August 9, 2020.

    I always enjoy stopping by. There are a few places in Flag that serve boba tea (Aloha BBQ, a place…read moreat the mall, and Java, the new place on Milton near Bookman's), and Sweet Day is my favorite. I've never tried the food from Sweet Day itself, although Hot Wok is good, but the tea is delicious and the boba itself is the best I've had in Flagstaff. I usually get the Thai tea and boba, although the signature is delicious, and I also love the 3 brothers tea, which is the signature milk tea with boba, jelly, and pudding. I didn't like the taro, but my friends love it, and Sweet Day has the best matcha in Flagstaff. Plus, aside from the standard milk tea and boba, they also have popping pearls and fruitier teas, which are very refreshing (I personally recommend the honey green tea and lychee pearls, or strawberry green tea and mango pearls). The staff is always great and friendly, and I love hanging out and chatting with them, or playing pool or foosball with my roommate as we grab tea. It's close to the university, but it's never busy. That's probably because not many people know it's there, which is a real shame, but also means there's rarely a line, and the drinks are always made really quickly. Overall, I highly recommend Sweet Day if you're just looking for good boba tea. If you're more hungry and the tea is a bonus, the food next door at Hot Wok is great, or check out Aloha BBQ downtown.

    3.5/5 For Flagstaff,…read morethis bubble tea is alright. If you get a drink from here it will be a sweet day indeed! At first I was a little confused because I didn't see an actual bubble tea store, but it turns out the bubble tea shop has the same owner as the restaurant and grocery store. There are menus at the counter of the grocery store's check out counter where you can place your order. Sadly, one of my choices (The lemon black tea) was not available so I went with the mango tea instead and got a passion fruit tea with yogurt popping boba. The cashier said the passion fruit was her favorite flavor- alright! They make the bubble tea next door at the Chinese restaurant kitchen/drink area. It didn't take too long for my drinks to be made and they had those nicely heat sealed lids. The passion fruit drink was a little too sweet for me so I'll see if I can ask for it less sweet next time. Service was very friendly and nice. Since options are limited in Flagstaff for bubble tea and I want to support local boba business (And fuel my bubble tea addiction) I'll try more next time I'm here!

My boyfriend ordered the hot London Fog and really enjoyed it. I can't remember the exact name of my drink - something like Orange Dream - but it was delicious as well. You can actually taste the tea, and it doesn't taste artificial at all. Super good. There's plenty of seating inside, which makes it a great place to hang out. The only downside is parking - finding a spot in Flagstaff can be tricky, and most of the parking in the area is paid. That said, it wasn't too busy when we went around 8am. Definitely recommend!

    I knew I was in trouble at Steep Leaf Lounge the moment I asked for coffee and the room got quiet…read more Coffee? No (well they do have one option) Latte? Also no (they do have tea lattes) Hot chocolate? Technically yes... but even that comes with Earl Grey tea inside. These folks are deeply, passionately committed to one thing: dried leaves steeped in hot water. And honestly, they do it well. If you're a tea lover, this place is your Disneyland. The selection is impressive, the vibe is relaxed, and the people behind the counter clearly care about what they're doing. There's a real enthusiasm here for the craft of tea, and that kind of passion is always fun to see. That said, my one issue was a pretty important one on a cold Flagstaff day... My tea showed up lukewarm. Now normally I'm a pretty forgiving person... but when it's 40 degrees outside and tea is the entire business model, this feels like a pretty big detail. When tea is the whole menu, temperature isn't a detail... it's the headliner. I like the concept. I respect the passion. It's just a bit limiting for my taste, and the execution missed slightly on the most important note. Three stars. A cool idea... that just needed to be a little hotter.

You order yourself at a kiosk. First day we ordered pop n bo with signature milk tea, another signature milk tea and a Shizuka matcha with coconut milk. The milk teas had a strong tea flavor, which we prefer. The matcha was a little too sweet if you want to be able to taste the matcha. I like a lot of ice in my tea, so I asked for more. They had to put into a new cup and reseal, but the worker gladly did it for me. We sat and enjoyed the popcorn chicken fresh. There are several tables, but most people seemed to take it to go. The next day we got the same orders but reduced the sugar in the matcha and added an order of fried tofu, which was also delicious.

Ended up having to use the self serve kiosk which was annoying because we intended on purchasing stickers as well and we can't do that at the kiosk. I'm only giving this review two stars because my family liked their drinks (a hot taro milk tea with boba) but I hated mine, got the regular milk tea and the quality was terrible. Was only able to buy our stickers after they finished making our drinks and we asked a worker to help us purchase them . Wouldn't recommend this spot overall
