Just dropped in for a to-go sandwich on a quick trip up to Erie, and what a pleasant surprise! My chicken caprese sandwich was fantastic! Juicy chicken breast, goooey mozz with chopped, roasted red peppers and spinach - YUM! The menu says it should be on toasted Asiago, but that's not what this was on. It was on a plain hamburger-style bun, but it was still good. The fries were really flavorful, too - tasted/looked like handcut. Though I didn't eat there, the place was super cute inside. The staff was polite/friendly. We'll definitely be back, if we have to go to Erie again. (Apologies for the pic! It was pouring rain, and I was starving!) read more

A classic in every way! Fantastic breakfast, friendly staff full of local knowledge, all inside a piece of history! Sit at the counter across from the griddle and watch a master work, especially if it is a busy Sunday morning. read more

This epic railroad diner car is a few miles off Interstate 90. The short detour is worth the trip. It has a small parking lot, but we found plenty of street parking. All the tables were filled when we arrived, so we got bar seats. The staff was super friendly. They offered us coffee as soon as we sat down. We both tried the egg breakfast with French toast. The potatoes were amazing, especially with their spicy ghost sauce. We loved the experience inside this clean, beautiful rail car diner. read more

I like this dinor! Cute, VERY small nice ambiance dinor. I ordered the mushroom Swiss burger, which was HUGE and fixed to perfection. Potato salad was good, but sweet, which I'm not a fan of "sweet" potato salad. I've eaten here other times for breakfast, and it was always good. Be prepared for a line out the door, so don't go during high volume hours. My only complaint? The dinor is drafty, and where we were seated I was in a direct line of the draft... so I was freezing!! I had to eat with my coat on. Other than that.. I recommend this dinor! (Heads up ownership - caulk your windows!! ) read more

If I could give this place 6 stars I would. We loved it!! The chef really knows his way around the grill and the owner was great with sarcasm and humor. They greeted most of the locals with first name recognition and treated us non locals like locals. The food was made to order and delicious. If you need a substitution, you got it no hassle or up charge. They are there to make sure you enjoy what you eat. The trolly car creates a unique atmosphere that completes the experience. From the desserts to the main course, you can't go wrong with eating here!! read more

Went for breakfast but ended up with lunch because it switched over to a lunch menu by the time we had arrived. Upon first glance it is a cute small neighborhood place. Our server seemed to know most of the customers who walked in after us as regulars. The lunch menu reminded me of a pretty standard diner menu. The food was good. Enjoyed our visit there and will consider going back again, but earlier for breakfast! read more

Good and quick service and food. Old trolley car. French toast food. Bacon crispy. Rust belt should've had crispier bacon and maybe a bit more cheese and a toastier bagel but it was good. Oatmeal was good but blueberries were frozen then thawed and an extra $1.50 which I don't think was noted. Grilled cinnamon roll was pretty good. Seats are worn out but adds to the original look of the place. read more

Went for lunch and had the Trifecta (Greek dog, burger, and fries). Absolutely delicious and quality in every aspect. Seared Smith's natural cased dog, finely diced onions, great sear and seasoning on burger, delicious Greek sauce with some depth of flavor, toasted buns, and LPD house hot sauce to enhance the tang of the Greek sauce. Head to toe each element done well with attention to detail and quality, all in a cool, close-quartered, classic diner with a happy and attentive server. 10 outta 5, would love to try breakfast. read more

I ordered breakfast food for pick up and they were fast and friendly. The pancakes,sausage, eggs and toast were amazing! Nice little diner tucked away on Main Street through LP, nice seating, lighting and looks family oriented. read more

Ran across this QUAINT little diner on a 60th birthday/girls road trip. Loved every aspect of this place - the charm of the old train style building, the deliciously grilled food or the charming local teacher working the outdoor seating area. Our favorite stop of our entire cross country drive! read more

I love the locally roasted coffee and the Greek Omelette, the hot sauce is a delight. Wonderful place with amazing service.

This diner has delicious food made before your eyes, with speedy and friendly service. Prices are amazing. The train car setting is charming and perfect. Couldn't love a breakfast place more. My 11-year-old said it made him so happy that a small business like this still exists. read more

Amazing food! Great friendly people- fun and such a cute place! Could watch the cook all day!

Get the cinnamon roll. It's decadent and yummy. My bagel sandwich was supposed to have lettuce, tomato, and condiments and didn't have any. A bummer but yummy. The service was pretty good. There wasn't much room for the staff to get to us, but once they did, they took care of us. The reason there's little patking is because there is little seating. But people move in and out pretty quick. Worth the wait. Great Dinor! Would go again. read more

We were looking for a breakfast place for after Mass and the Dinor came up in our searches. I'm glad it did because what a delicious experience! The server and cook were extremely friendly providing suggestions and giving some information about the restaurant. Food came quickly and we watched everything be made fresh to order. I had the skillet breakfast and added a side of the Greek sauce. Filing, rich and tasty. My husband and son had omelets that they really enjoyed and were nicely sized. My daughter enjoyed some tasty blueberry pancakes. The only reason I'm not giving five stars is the space. I absolutely understand it is a historic dining car but it was really crammed. And someone who is bigger in size or who is in a wheelchair would not have been able to eat here. read more

The pancakes here are no joke. I have a healthy appetite and 3 pancakes proved to be too much. They were delicious. My partners was delicious too, she got the ham and cheese omelette. read more

We went for the first time to eat here! As we read other reviews! And the Food was Absolutely Horrible! The Home fried potatoes tasted like dirty dishwater. The Hash was so Greasy it made my stomach sick! The Only thing edible was the toast! My husband had a Western Omelet and it was small and VERY Flat and Hardly anything in it ! The place needs a total remodel it is very old and shabby! The Only thing good here was the Nice Waitress! Avoid, Avoid, Avoid this Restaurant! We Will Not Be Back Ever!!! read more

My son recently moved to Erie Pennsylvania. We wanted breakfast and we're very hungry.

Next time for lunch, definitely! This is a treasure! read more

Very vintage Dinor. Great food! Great Service! We have biscuits and gravy, country omelets and area omelets. Hot coffee! Would go again if ever in Erie again! read more

Perfect dinor. (With an O, as it should be.) The best measure of a dinor/diner is if you get enough food for the price. And you definitely do. The waitress is the perfect balance of friendly/sassy. I only cried once though. Corned beef hash was nice and crispy, the rye toast was nice and thick (could have used 15 more seconds in the toaster). Eggs were exactly over easy. My co-diners were pleased with their pancake, and with their breakfast that matched mine. The coffee though, I thought it was significantly better than most dinor coffee. It still is in the traditional coffee-burnting carafes (didn't matter because they were busy) but the coffee is roasted locally at a craft roaster. It was wonderful. It's also in a old "train car" type building, it's tight quarters, but perfect for the experience. read more

One of daughters and her hubby treated us to brunch yesterday. Oh, my.....the Bruscetta Burger and fries was soooo delish! The Greek sauce is out of this world! The homemade pies and REAL milkshakes looked amazing-a must-return-soon fave dining spot. Love the vintage signs displayed throughout the cozy Historic restaurant! We all were beyond pleased! read more

Everyone was so friendly and the food was delicious- best sausage gravy I've ever had

Loved it. If I lived in Erie I would be there every morning. Everyone is super friendly. You could tell there is a local following of regulars which makes it special. The rye toast is delicious. Personal taste - thought the home fries were over seasoned but that is just me. These establishments are too few and far between. I hope the neighborhood continues to support them for many years to com. read more
