Let me start off by saying my dad and I have been coming here together since I was about 4 years old. The waitresses are always very nice, and out of the million of times i've been here, the service has never been slow. You do have to come early ish, we usually do 10-11am, and the breakfast is delicious! I LOVE their home fries & the eggs & toast are good too. Growing up, i'd always get chocolate milk with whip cream on top, only here! Yes, it is a small place, yes, there is limited seating, but the food is genuinely so good. I do wish they would accept cards however. I do have to say however, I am very disappointed in how they carry themselves on Kuppys facebook page, once they shared an anti-transgender post making fun of individuals who are trans, myself and a few others commented that it was not ok & in bad taste... They blocked me So i haven't been back since :) read more

Holy moly, is this place ever a throwback to the 1930s! It's literally a single-wide mobile home that was converted into a tiny restaurant some 90+ years ago (1933, so says the sign on the door). If you need legroom, do yourself a favor and sit at the counter or ask for one of the tables in the back. You will pay a terrible price if you sit in one of the booths! The food was... fine. Not bad, not great. But what really stood out were the drink rules. Anything other than coffee is served in a small 4-ounce plastic cup, and a sign on the wall says you're entitled to exactly one refill. How strict they are about it, I don't know--service was so slow that we didn't bother testing the limits. No need to bring a credit card; this place is cash-only. The photo below of the front door really says it all--the door itself looks like it hasn't been painted since the diner's grand opening in 1933. read more

Food is amazing! Always a great place to go Every thing on the menu is delicious. Hard choice to make on food.

A true hidden gem nestled in Middletown in an old time diner trailer. Fresh sausage patty was fantastic! Home fries are a must! Breakfast counter and tables available. Pancakes so good you'll think your grandma is in the kitchen! read more

Great breakfast! I was taking my wife to catch a flight out of Harrisburg and we used Yelp to find a breakfast place. This old diner was perfect. A small, clean place with counter service and a few booths and tables. This place is the real deal. It's been serving Middletown since the 1930s and has the fifth generation of the family still works there. We picked our own booth, and were served very quickly. I had the two egg special with bacon and potatoes and my wife had pancakes and more bacon. The bacon was crispy, the potatoes had the right level of browning from the grill and the eggs were perfect. My wife's pancakes were tasty, light, with just a little crisp on the edges. Service was attentive without being on top of us. Perfect for what we needed. Thanks Yelp! One thing to know is the restaurant is cash only. They do have an ATM by the door if you need it. read more

Excellent breakfast! Food and service top notch! great people! I would eat here every day if I lived close by! You won't go wrong by stopping here! read more

Food and service were excellent! Onion rings were my favorite! Atmosphere was nostalgic.

Classic diner setting with fantastic food and the friendliest people! Love it...will be back again and again!

Great breakfast. Good old fashioned dinner with the good hearty breakfast food. Generous portions. Friendly service. The bonus is the hot sauce made by a local guy. The suicide heat level is excellent on scrapple and eggs & home fries. I keep a bottle in the fridge at home. Great stuff! This place is a hidden gem. Eat here and be happy. read more

I had a wonderful breakfast at Kuppy's a few years ago and was very impressed with the diner, the staff, and the food. I was thinking I want to go there again so I checked Kuppy's website for hours. I went through their photo gallery and found the photo of Rachael. I read the insert caption and knew this was the place for me! I'm an American, I have had our nation's flag and the flags of our armed forces, where there was none, put at the entrances of the Pentagon. Our country will be saved again in 2025. God bless America, and God bless Kuppy's. I am NOT Bill R. from San Francisco. I signed in through Google and it assigned me to this account instead of my own account. I am a Bill R. but I've never even been to San Francisco. I live in Elizabethtown, PA. My ratings are: Kuppy's = 5 stars; Google = 1 star. read more

I hope this place never closes. Amazing vibe and great service with food like no one else makes. The chicken corn soup was incredible, but I think they stopped making it. Go burger and gravy fries or for breakfast the hashbrowns are insane. read more

Step back in time, but watch your step in and out of this place. The people were friendly. The food was great. The prices are less expensive than other restaurants. Breakfast is only served til noon. They only take cash. Try this place. It's a small town Pennsylvania diner! You'll love it! read more

Great food, really a local favorite for us. Classic old timey diner feel. A little cramped and they only accept cash (which I don't really carry around anymore) but I can chalk all that up to part of the charm! read more

I have t start by I absolutely love these old tiny diners and this one didn't disappoint. The staff and locals make you feel like an old friend. Food was great. I'd definitely go back if I was in the area. read more

Still open for takeout during quarantine! Ordered takeout for Saturday morning breakfast. They have family specials, we got the #1 - 4 pancakes and 8 scrambled eggs - for $10! More than enough, if you're a Kuppy's regular you know their pancakes are huge. Also got corn beef hash and a western omelet. Everything was ready in 10 mins for pickup, they have a makeshift counter make out of their front door with a plastic screen for everyone's protection. Easy peasy, make sure to call ahead to put your order in. read more

Kuppy's is a traditional community diner with some of the nicest staff I have encountered. When my son and I walked in we knew we had stumbled on a "locals joint." We were greeted with a pleasant salutation and directed to sit where ever we felt comfortable. The food came out quickly and was hot and tasted good. Portions were large enough that we both left without being part of the "clean plate club." Not sure I will be back in the area, but if I am I'm sure I'd consider giving Kuppy's a Chance again. read more

Kuppy's is good, but it's small -really small. It's best suited for a quick bite while you're out and about or a good spot to meet up and chat with locals. The food itself was delicious, having had the Crab Benedict I can say there's no shortage or substitutions on crab meat here. Another favorite is the PB Cinnamon Roll where the icing was equivalent to a chocolate peanut butter cake variety. I would like to venture back for liver and onions (which may earn them another star) but I was satisfied with my first visit here. *As everyone's warned: ca$h only* read more

I'd like to say I love the food, but couldn't get past the "LET'S GO BRANDON" sign proudly displayed in the window. I told my sister, who was driving, to keep on driving. They lost two good customers today. No amount of good food is enough for me to get past that. Grow up you guys! Trump LOST! read more

I never felt the need to post about my horrible experience at this place a few years ago, when I was served undercooked poultry and received a very unsatisfactory response. However, I could not avoid posting today when I saw one of the owners making a point to publicly shame and berate a customer who complained about them on another site. This place is subsisting on a reputation built by past management. Their lack of professionalism and class is on a level I have never before witnessed. Check out the screenshots of their now-deleted Facebook rant and see for yourself. This place deserves to end up in the dustbin history. read more

I haven't eaten here in 5 years. I didn't post a review then. I wish I had. My boyfriend received undercooked chicken and there was zero effort made to make our experience better. This isn't the point of the review. Don't eat here. They like to take screenshots of customer's comments and berate them on social media platforms. Owner and family seem to be bullies. read more

I was in Hershey this past weekend and stayed with my boyfriend's cousin in Middletown. Before we left town yesterday, we all went to breakfast at Kuppy's! I told the others about my favorite diner back home, the Summit Diner, and they said they had just the place for me. Kuppy's is small, yes, but it adds to that "greasy spoon," small-town diner feel that I love. Everyone there knew my boyfriend's cousin & her husband by name, and they greeted us all with a smile and hello as soon as we walked in the door. Service was wonderful and SO quick! Sticking with my typical breakfast obsession, I ordered the Eggs Benedict and was not disappointed. The Canadian bacon was a little thicker than normal but I actually preferred it this way! The poached eggs were cooked perfectly and the hollandaise sauce was delish. I only took a few tiny bites of my homefries because I was already pretty full, but they were yummy too! My boyfriend ordered a breakfast special that consisted of 2 eggs, bacon and pancakes... I managed to grab a bite of one of his pancakes and they were on par with some of the best ones I've ever had! Light and fluffy... not to mention a little sweet on their own. They almost don't even need syrup! I'll definitely stop back through Kuppy's if I'm in town again. You can't beat it, the prices are great and the food is delicious! Note: as other Yelpers have noted, it is CASH ONLY. There is a Citizen's Bank ATM right next door though :) read more

Service is wonderful. They cook your food right in front of you and have a great breakfast selection. Highly recommend the eggs Benedict... the hollandaise was amazing. We're from Ohio and wanted a local place to eat, and we couldn't be happier we picked Kuppy's. read more

Very friendly and food was really this is a place you will see a lot of locals ! Small place but big heart

Good local spot. It is an old classic diner, that is family owned. Service and food was good. I will be back.

The best food anywhere and atmosphere is awesome old fashion diner from 1933 and this family does more than anyone for Middletown

Great people, great food, and the best service! I go there every time I am in town. This place is amazing, as are the owners and their family! It is the best diner in the whole area! They also give back to their community as often as they can. read more

I have been going to Kuppy's a couple of times a month for nearly 30 years. I brought many foreign visitors to speak or perform at Etown College during my three decades there. If they flew into HIA, I took them to Kuppy's for a taste of the region. All loved it (Japanese visitors delighted in the scrapple). Food always great, conversation stimulating from the family (as a moderate Democrat, sometimes too stimulating :-)), and the chance to touch base with MIddletown's history make Kuppy's the place to be. But yesterday, May 28th was the best ever! I just happened to come in late in the morning and one of the pillar's of Middletown (according to the family) was there - Bob Reed, retired Middletown teacher and former three-decade mayor of Middletown. I didn't know him but when he and Greg started going at it over politics ("I taught you better than that, you didn't teach me anything"), I ducked for cover. Turns out, Mayor Reed taught Greg twice in school, including politics and government in secondary. After he left, Greg showed me a photo of Mr. Reed's grandfather and his own great grandfather sitting together in the 1950's (I think). With great food, nice and funny family members and employees, and historical experiences available for the price of admission (in cash, of course), Kuppy's is THE diner to go to in central PA.

Discovered this place by accident when I first moved up here. It is located within walking distance from the train station that gives sight seeing tours. If I remember correctly this place was opened in the 1920's and still has it original feel, which is nice. Kuppy's food is great. I can say that out of all the times that I have been there I haven't had a bad meal and the prices are reasonable. Just keep in mind that it is a tiny place. They have booth seating and counter seating. So I always try to make it there either before or after the lunch rush and have never had a problem with seating. BTW, they are a cash only establishment! read more

This small little family run diner is a tribute to the past... I love this little place the food is amazing actually, I have not found something I didn't like. The restaurant is small in size it makes up in character and food. I will definitely return... the prices are also reasonable. read more

Great food, I had the cheeseburger sub and macaroni and cheese, nice home made macaroni. My daughters kids meal was the perfect portion size, which is hard to find these days. No free refills on sodas though. Great peanut butter pie. I will be coming back. read more

This little place packs in a lot of heart. I went on a saturday-the place was packed but we go seating right away. Our waitress did a great job of getting us our drinks fast and quick while we looked over the menu. The coffee was good (I like a diner with good coffee). We ordered chocolate chip pancakes, home fries, bacon, and the eggs benedict meal. Everything was so good. I had to take my left over pancakes home they were the size of the plates they came on. We were able to talk to one of the owners who was so nice-I told her how glad we were finally to be able to drive out to try the place. On Facebook they always post pictures of their fresh baked deserts, we got a slice of Coconut Cream Pie to take home. It was good and I made it last two servings. The only downside is this place is cash only-however next door is a bank. So if your up for a little weekend breakfast place I'd highly recommend coming to Kuppy's. read more

The food here is amazing. It feels so home made and delicious. The family who owns the place is always nice and welcoming. I have a girlfriend who lived in Middletown while she was going to Penn State Harrisburg and everytime I came to visit we would go to Kuppy's for breakfast. It is excellent. The atmosphere is great and I don't know what all the negative reviews are about but this place is just awesome. Were planning a drive down there for the weekend with some friends and Kuppy's is our first stop. Try the Eggs Benedict! read more

What a gem of a find. This restaurant was awesome, excellent quality food and preparation, the waitress was great, fast, kind, efficient. Honoring hometown heroes was icing on the cake. Wonderful!! read more

Yes, yes and YES!!! Food is always fresh and fast. McKuppys sandwich without the English muffin is heaven! Take in and carry out option is awesome. Good hometown cooking at its finest! If they have any peanut butter cinnamon rolls, be sure to snag one. I will run a diet for one of these!!! read more

Money cristo was good, avoid the hot beef special. Place is super tiny, cash only and they refuse to take the 10% off yelp check in coupon!
