We had Diego as our server and he was the absolute best! It was 3 of us ladies and he suggested the pickles, knishe, the potato pancakes. He also took the time to to thoroughly go through the menu with us and was super helpful! I would definitely recommend again! Plus the service exceptional! read more

Lenny's is an institution. Darn Good Diner food, great value, and exceptional service. Your coffee cup will be topped off regularly. You will be hard pressed to find it empty even on the busiest days. Few vegetarian options and fewer vegan options but they can and will accommodate. Trust your server and they will lead you to a successful meal. Even the pickiest eaters will be able to be satisfied. We were hungry therefore no food pix but you probably know what scrambled eggs and pancakes look like. read more

I've been to Lenny's a few times through the years. They always are very friendly and have great service! Today, Chloe was my server and did an absolutely excellent job with everything!! The inside of the restaurant is interesting to look at with all the decor from floor to ceiling. They gave complimentary pastries in a little basket which was special. Food came out hot and looked great!! Flavor was very good as well!! I had the "Dan's Famous Gator Omelette with grits & home-fried potatoes. The hollandaise sauce was a nice addition to my omelette as well!! Definitely recommend dining here, as it's one of Pinellas County's long established restaurants popular with locals and tourists alike!!! read more

This Vintage Diner is truly an amazing experience. Just like old times when America was run by local people and everyone supported their local businesses. ( No corporate robots and rude anti social servers) the food is amazing. Omg the home fries the real southern grits, French toast European style. Lots of choices and the owners family are like instant family. Ask for Diego the best server and tons of laughs. Welcome to this place. We hit the lottery finding it. You'll love the atmosphere and remember when food, family , friends came together at the local diner. Johnny cash style!! Thanks Lennys for keeping out of the failing Ai robotic corporate owned bull. Happy new year 2026 - read more

Lenny's Restaurant - Mark balloon guy that the kiddos loved at Lenny's - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Clearwater, Florida

I've been to Lenny's many, many times for breakfast, and while it was mediocre at best, it was hot off the grill. This past weekend my husband and I had the absolute worst breakfast ever. We left after eating only the bagel my husband upgraded to instead of toast and I ate my rye toast. The potatoes were dry and cold, the eggs were cold, the bacon also cold. They were not busy, so the only thing I can say may have caused this poor experience was that our waitress was in charge of pulling together a large to go order and it was missing pancakes from the kitchen. She literally had to unpackage the boxes and prove to the kitchen she didn't receive them. All the while I guess our breakfast took backseat to the Uber Eats order. We will not go back. There are too many really good breakfast eateries to waste money on a breakfast that we not eat. read more

Whenever I am in the Clearwater area, I have breakfast at Lenny's. They have signs that say best breakfast and they back it up. Love their eggs, fresh bagels, homemade potatoes, and tasty bacon. Also love getting their pastry basket at beginning of meal. If you love good breakfast, you need to try this place. Also, interior has lots of fun signs on ceiling. Fun, tasty breakfast place. read more

This was our first time at Lenny's and Michelle was our waitress, she was phenomenal!!! Best service we've had in months. Extremely friendly, fast, & thinks ahead of your needs. The decor is very charming, food was good, thank you for a wonderful brunch! read more

This place was so fun!! This is our first trip here, we all ordered something different, spaghetti, French toast and corned beef hash. It was all delicious and amazing! Our server, Scott, was super helpful and efficient. The restaurant is really casual, lots of cute decorations and really cute shirts you can purchase, which we did!! We will definitely be back!! read more

Stepping into Lenny's is like stepping back in time. I have only gone here for breakfast but they certainly do it well. Portions are large, service is great and food is dependably good. They bring out a basket of pastries to start you off. That usually results in me not being able to finish my entree. Parking can be challenging, especially on the weekends. There is often a good wait then, too. I try to hit it on week days for those reasons. read more

I ordered a patty melt for lunch and it was not as good as expected it to be. First off, the relish tray of pickles and Cole Slaw was excellent. However, when burger came it wasn't up to Lenny's usual standards. Patty melts generally come with Swiss cheese, this came with American cheese that appeared was put on the burger at the last minute; not melted on. I ordered a medium burger and it came out closer to rare. Finally, the French fries were barely warm. They tasted like they had been sitting for awhile and not cooked to order. Hopefully, this was a one off and not the new norm with Lenny's. read more

**** Review 145 **** I ran into this place while waiting for Costco to open. This was a great breakfast diner, the staff was friendly and corky. I love that you get a complementary danish basket. Their breakfast menu is large and so far, very delicious. The prices were reasonable, the food was very delicious and super filling. If you're looking for a great and fast breakfast place, then this spot is for you! read more

Having seen good reviews, I tried Lenny's twice during a recent visit to the area. If I lived in the area, it would probably be in my rotation of restaurants. On both visits, both the parking lot and restaurant were packed. It seems to be the norm, as the friendly staff did not seem fazed by the throngs of customers. On both visits, my party and I experienced great service. Don't worry that someone in your party won't find something to their liking. The menu is as packed with choices as their dining room is packed with patrons. On both visits, I found it difficult to choose my meal, as everything sounds good. On my first visit, I picked an omelette with American fries and a side of tomato slices. The eggs were good, not remarkable. The hollandaise sauce was without real flavor. The fried potatoes were good. What blew me and my dining partners away was the individual baskets of pastries. The bottomless coffee and the pastry basket alone would have been filling; I didn't really need to eat the rest of the day. On my second visit, I noticed all of the memorabilia on the walls. When a place is good and has been around for a long time, it has a chance to have been visited by many interesting people. My second meal was the Reuben sandwich. If for no other reason, I'd return for another sandwich! The meat was piled high and the rest of the sandwich exemplified everything I want when I order a Reuben. My mouth waters as I think of it. If you want breakfast or lunch, don't be leery of giving Lenny's a visit. read more

I have no idea what happened to the pics I took, but go here! Stop waiting! The food came out so quickly and was absolutely delicious!! Also, the best rye bread I've ever had and made the perfect toast! Not only was the food amazing but the service was top notch. Everyone seemed to be enjoying themselves and worked well together, it was such a fun experience. You do get a danish basket with each meal, and if you don't finish it they let you take it with you. Ours included quite a variety of mixed breads, rolls and actual danish. Then you get your hefty breakfast (highly recommend the fire potatoes); only to leave fat and happy :) we will definitely be back! read more

Quite the memorable experience at this local institution. This bustling spot does classic American diner breakfast and Jewish deli staples under a festive atmosphere that even includes a balloon artist to entertain the kids on the weekends. Walls feature caricatures, photos of famous diners, and Phillies fan gear. The portobello mushroom Benedict and BLT Benedict had perfectly cooked eggs and toasted English muffins. The complimentary Danish basket was a nice touch. This spot is perfect for families to grab breakfast but I can imagine it can get quite busy on weekends. Luckily the food comes out pretty quick so the tables turn at a reasonable rate. They do have a parking lot but it was pretty full. We were warned not to park by the motel building next to the restaurant. Definitely worth a stop to experience this unique American diner. read more

I've been out and about and needed some nourishment and I've been supporting locals instead of corporate chains as much as possible. Decided today it would be Lenny's, and I noted how busy they were, normally a good sign. After going back and forth with the numerous menu options I decided on the Avocado Toast with 2 eggs (I had asked for scrambled, but received sunny side up, but to me eggs are eggs and mistakes happen, they were delicious), and home made fries. I received a Danish Basket for my sweet tooth, and very good! The Avocado topping was fresh but could have used seasoning. I did see a few 'Everything Bagel Seasoning' Seeds. I needed to add salt and pepper to give it taste and the toast was mushy, didn't get toasted enough or even toasted. The home made fries tasted delicious, but were greasy (literally oil on the plate). The overall opinion of my food was that it was average and definitely could have been knocked out of the park if the cook paid attention and took their time to ensure quality. I won't have the avocado toast again, and I'm hoping next time the home-Fries are less greasy. I enjoyed the old diner experience and service was prompt and friendly. My waitress was busy serving tables and taking phone orders and kept up with her in-house customers needs. I saw several guests enjoying their meals and leaving nothing on their plates. I really enjoyed the atmosphere and the meal was average and I feel just a bad day or rushed. I will need to return, as I believe in second chances and with so many positive reviews there has to be something special about this restaurant other than the Danish Basket. http://lennysclearwater.com/menu/full-menu/ read more

If you're in Clearwater, you've got to go to Lenny's. We stayed in a Marriott hotel two doors down from Lenny's, he claims to be the best breakfast in town and I think I highly agree. We stumbled into Lennys on a Sunday morning at about 830 and the place was packed. We did manage to get a table. Everything about this place is fun. There are pictures of cartoon characters of Lenny, doing all kinds of things. The servers are very unique individuals and very professional and the food was just outstanding. Make sure when you're there that you order the pastry basket. It's a sampling of a whole bunch of sweet goodies to eat and they are delicious. All of our meals were perfect and our server was a blast. I wish it were down the street from my house instead of across the state, I'd come a lot more often. read more

This was our first time and it was fantastic. Friendly staff made seating and ordering easy. The layout is open. Lots of groups talking and obviously having a good time. The drop tile ceiling and partial walls make sure it is not just crazy loud. That is big for me as I am partially deaf The food was great. Biscuits and Sausage gravy, eggs, and potato pancakes for me. BLT benny for my wife. Nice portions without being stupidly large. So much better than your average dinner food. I really really enjoyed his place. I already know I will be back. read more

If I could give this diner, 10 stars, I would. The people who work there are extremely friendly and helpful! Make sure to call ahead and add your name to the waitlist. The food is incredible! I loved all of the complimentary pastries but my favorite was the banana bread. I ordered the omelette with pancakes. The pancakes were fluffy and very flavorful. The winner was my husbands meal. Make sure to order the Redneck Benedict with onion home fries. I'm still dreaming about this breakfast and can't wait to go back! read more

Excellent! Service and Food all great. Had the jalapeño bacon and loved it, not too hot but lots of flavor.

Second time here this week but today our server was rude and didn't seem to want to take our order. Asked for extra crispy bacon and it came out under cooked. She then took bacon and had them throw it in deep fryer. I didn't ask for deep fried food. Didn't end up eating after horrible experience. Try another restaurant and save your time. read more
