I'll keep this brief, TERRIBLE service, unfriendly staff, and sub par food. My two friends and i, who by the way all work with fast food, visited here one morning and it will be the last time. When i went up to pay, the cashier was on the phone and yelled the total at my friend several times. When we asked why her total was so high, she handed us over to one of her co workers where she decided to catch an attitude when we were being very compliant. When i called to talk to the manager, she yelled at me while on the phone and after i hung up, she called me back THREE TIMES. Please, DO NOT EAT HERE!!!! read more

Food was salty. Coffee was bland and watered down. Nothing special. I won't be coming back.

Sat ourselves down and we were ignored by the waitresses. My husband got up and asked for a menu and the waitress said 'oh I was just coming to get you guys.' Lie. She was talking her head off the whole time and the restaurant wasn't even busy. I guess she got offended and then another waitress just started taking our order. Seemed like she was on drugs too read more

Great breakfast specials. Reasonably priced. Clean restaurant and kitchen. Friendly staff.

Went there for breakfast today and for it being a diner, the waitress took 15 minutes to come to our table, a table overlooking dirty plates. Food arrived quickly but was inedible. My waffle tasted like dish soap and my sons eggs has shells. Ugh! Never again! read more

This place is disgusting in every way. The customer service here sucks, being that it is family owned no one cares. The way they answer phone calls, take forever to wait customers ,and how they handle food is terrible. Herbie's don't deserve one star. I wouldn't recommend this place to anyone read more

I was reading a lot of subpar rating about this place so I was skeptical going in. However, my experience was extremely pleasing today! Herbie's Place is a nice, mom and pop diner, with good food, and great service! I went in, and was taken care of within minutes as they were pretty busy! One waitress, a brunette, gave me a menu, another waitress with blonde hair got my drink, and another waitress who also had blonde hair, but had it ties up in a ponytail, took my order! It was kind of like Round Robin, but I never complained as my drink was ALWAYS filled without asking, and my food came out before I could blink I swear! I got the "Ultimate Breakfast which came with 2 eggs, 2 sausage links, 2 strips of bacon, a sausage patty, hashbrowns, and two pieces of toast. I also got me some French toast since I was super hungry! Everything was delicious and I had no complaints about ANYTHING! The hashbrown were really crispy which I like, and the sausage patty was hot, which I loved as well since it seems like most places don't use hot sausage like they used to these days. I even got a to-go cup once the waitresses had noticed I was finished eating. This place was AMAZING! I don't know if it's other waitresses that work there on a different shift that got this place some poor ratings or what, but my experience was fantastic! Now I know what time to go, and what waitresses to look for, before expecting something different! I will be back for sure! read more

See all

This Saturday my wife and I were on the lookout for a good breakfast restaurant in Greensboro and decided to give Herbie's a go. It's a great dinner! The sausages were wonderful and so was the omelet and french toast. Every thing was cooked just right. Breakfast was served quickly with a smile by an apparently happy wait and cook staff. The place has a lot energy. We'll definitely be back. read more

Just left this place and was not satisfied at all. Waitresses we unpleasant and ignored customers. Food was just ok. We were there for breakfast and they served us a small hockey puck that we later figured out was a sausage patty. The coffee was whimpy but at least it was hot. I know I won't go back. read more

We stopped in here for breakfast about a month ago on a day trip to Greensboro with a restaurant.com cert (good way to try out new places) and definitely will be coming back. Place was still very busy at 9:30 am when most folks are at work = good sign that grub is good. Wife had eggs and hashbrowns scattered-all-the-way and I had their corned beef hash, eggs and grits. Corned beef hash was good (hard to screw up eggs over easy or grits). Tasted wifey's scattered hashbrowns. Wow! Excellent - getting that next trip when we are back. Atmosphere great like any good diner you would find on Rt 9 in New jersey (but with Southern sensibility and no Jersey attitude) and friendly staff. As Ah'nold said to the policeman in The Terminator - "I'll be back". read more

Not horrible, but definately one of those places that appeals to it's regular following and no one else. The food is mediocre, and we have far better breakfast places in town. read more

They are very busy so I know they have a lot of regulars. That being said, they don't use butter or real cheese (I'm sure it's cheese processed food). Then we found a hair in the food and told our waitress and all she did was say it was gross and made a face when taking the plate! Nothing else done about it! I'm going to just drive by it from here on! read more

This place is adorable, what a cool idea for a restaurant. Only had to wait a few minutes for a table, as it always seems to be packed. Service was lightning fast and mmmm were the pancakes delicious! There's a walking/running trail behind the restaurant which makes you feel super fat and happy as you watch them torture themselves while you're stuffing your face. Would definitely come back, really cheap specials and the food was great! read more

Best Breakfast in greensboro! Quick in and out even when it's packed.

Ivy J. Loved this place, came 2 or 3 times a week. Then after this weekend and no Kat. My friends and I are done. The people u call server, can't spell it let along perform it. U took a big lost by her leaving. Were going to diners, hoping to find her read more

Been a regular here for years. Great food, wonderful people. The food tastes like something right out of your own kitchen.

My Fiancée and I's favorite place to eat. Very amazing and affordable food! We come here at least once a month and enjoy our experience every time! read more

The food is absolutely delicious and the staff have always been very polite and friendly. My husband and i went here every weekend for a year while we lived nearby and it was a favored ritual of ours. They serve breakfast 24/7 and have the best breakfast in town! read more

Good cheap breakfast as advertised. Always satisfied after leaving. Haven't had a bad breakfast there yet and been going for years. Think WH on steroids with more variety and a little better quality. read more

It's a diner. What more do you expect. However, the wings are fantastic! A box full of wings for super cheap compared to most places. We get them a lot. We always tip them because to go orders still have to be boxed up. Plus the food is good! read more

Is there anything less a single star because I don't want to give this dump a star period. Customer service horrendous, communication with customers, totally non existent. I've been here numerous times before but this time the vibe and atmosphere was totally different. Servers were not organized, customers waiting on to go orders hadn't received food for at least 30 minutes and when one customer approached to ask about his order he was totally disregarded and dismissed, meanwhile I hadn't even been acknowledged by anyone no said a word. It got so bad that the cook had to point out that I was waiting and even then the waitress said to her rudely that she was busy and to wait a minute. I was totally turned off at this point plus I saw the amount of tickets that had not yet even been served for both those wanting to take out and dine in. So me and those with me headed to the nearest exit and I will not be returning but I will find comfort at Smith St Diner real handmade quality food. read more

HORRIBLE! Was my first and last time there. Management is especially horrible. They messed up on my order & prices and charged my card the wrong price. The young lady refused to fix in when I was there and told me to call back tomorrow to talk to the owner . When I called a manager basically called me a liar and refuse to help so I had to call my bank to disputed the entire purchase. This place is HORRIBLE . If I could leave zero stars I would read more

Herbie's is a tried and true diner. The pancakes are delicious and the staff is friendly. I have fun watching the regulars interact with the waitresses. Whether you need a quick bite to eat or want to linger over coffee with a friend, Herbie's is the place to go. Great food and fun atmosphere. read more

Herbie's is great. We've been eating at this little diner for years. Breakfast is most impressive. The staff is always friendly and efficient. read more

The staff is wonderful and the food is pretty good BUT the cooks do NOT wear gloves and I watched them touch food with their bare hands. Quite disgusting I must say.... read more

I have been by this place several times--I come to Greensboro from app. 150 miles away 3 or 4 times a year and Sunday was my 1st visit. The food was outstanding, quick service and sitting at the bar watching the cook was fascinating. read more

I go here far more often than I would care to admit, but not because I haven't tried all the other competitors within a few miles. It easily beats the rest. The bacon is some of the best in town, the service almost obsessively attentive (contrary to what some reviewers have written), and the values very obvious. And their lunch and dinner items are superb, though most people don't seem to know about that, since those times are invariably much less crowded. Think burgers and chicken wings. Sausage patties and links are just OK. What is most amazing is that they have had the same crew of waitresses and cooks for quite a few years now, a very good sign. And the cooks are incredibly fast, accurate, and almost balletic in getting everything exactly right quickly, even during the busiest times. They will even bring your hot food out to you if the waitresses don't dish it out in time. For smokers, now banned, they have mercifully provided picnic benches outside. The highest recommendation, if you don't mind the sometimes noisy atmosphere, dated decor, and lack of feng shui. And no it's not tor the clean freaks. This is what a diner is about! read more

I haven't been to greensboro in years, and boy am I glad I stopped in here. There are two great things about this place. The first is the atmosphere. The staff really makes you feel welcomed, they are friendly and they know when to leave you alone or check in on you. The second is the prices. You really can't beat some of their deals. The food is pretty good. I mean it's not bad at all, it's just not the best food in the world. I will be coming back. Great bang for your buck. read more

I've been coming here for years! The staff is awesome from the owner to the busboys! Their coffee is superb! The food is great too! They have an extensive menu that now includes waffles! Everyone is friendly even when it's busy! If you come with the least bit of regularity, they recognize you readily. Highly recommended! read more

Herbie's is excellent. I've always had good food and impeccable service. Granted, I'm usually eating there at 8pm or later, but after going eating at Herbie's for a number of years, I've always left satisfied. I almost exclusively get breakfast and it's delicious every time. Tasty food, great service and I'm always appreciative of a 24/hr restaurant. read more

Poor excuse for even a diner. Slim pickings. Poorly executed meals. Service...meh. Too many other options. Skip it.

In the arena of diners, the food was very slightly above average. However the service was very poor. Specifically, with the exception of one server and the bus boy, the staff all seemed very angry and annoyed. This created a tense environment to dine in which took away from the entire diner dining experience. If the food is amazing, you can tolerate poor service or disgruntled staff, sadly this is not the case with Herbie's Place, poor service and slightly above average dishes. read more

I have been a couple of times for lunch, but they also serve breakfast. Easily the best place to go eat,for both food and prices;also its open 24 hours a day. The moment one walks in one can choose there table and a waitress ask what one want to drinks. Brings the drinks on time, and also helps recommend items on the menu.The burgers are the one of the best in Greensboro, and fill up the rest of the plate with fries. Even if its restaurant is full the the food come in a timely matter. The service there easily beats other competitors. The one thing they need to improve in is the restrooms. read more

alot beter the Last few times I went verygood service, food seemed fresh and good. gets busy so had to wait to pay. read more

Great diner food. Seat yourself type of place. Place is full and always a line. Yummy food.

Great small diner in Greensboro! I've always been a fan of diners and this one is great. I love old-style diners that still bring you back in time. The service is always great and quick. Sometimes there is a wait but we've never waited for more than 10-15 minutes on a busy weekend morning. The servers have been there for quite some time so they are used to the hustle and bustle and are good at keeping your drinks refreshed and checking in on you. Breakfast is always good! read more

In 2017 this place is a dump! Waited 10 minutes no waitress acknowledgement! Floor filthy and tables dirty! Yes a diner but eating around sour mop water and dirt not my cup of tea. It was 4 pm plenty of time between rushes to clean and wait on a party of 6. We left asap no time for food born illnesses. No hair nets and cracked eggs back in the egg carton! Clean up or shut down! read more

Good food for being a cheap diner. It's pretty noisy because of how it's set up.

Years ago this use to be the place to grab a quick bite, but not anymore. Fast yes. Friendly no. Ordered biscuit and gravy, biscuit had been microwaved and was chewy. Gravy was bland no seasoning whatsoever. Bacon was half cooked. Cheap yes, you get what you pay for. read more

We eat here a lot for breakfast, and occasionally lunch. You really cannot beat it when you want good "diner" food. We have always had great service and great food read more
