Charming place with nice servers. Real French fries not frozen with good French dip sandwich. Vegetable soup is really good.

Stopped in here on my move from Texas to California. Looks like a small town diner...because that's what it is :) Friendly service, cheap food, convenient and fast. Was better than Denny's or IHOP in my opinion, and about half the price! God help me if and when I make the 2,000 mile drive back to Texas, but when I do, I will stop in this place for round two of a cheese omelette and cup o' coffee! read more

A great place for breakfast, warm and toasty inside when there's snow on the ground outside! Eggs are beautifully cooked, just as ordered; hashbrowns are hot and crispy; even the coffee is steaming hot and fresh! Love the apple pie, warmed up just a little. Staff is very friendly and attentive, great service. read more

Miz Zip's - The dining room with lots of old photos and memorabilia on the walls. - American Near Me - Flagstaff, Arizona

Very excited to eat here since the locals told us about it! Until receiving our gross food and it was impossible to get any service and then you gotta wait forever for them to drop of your tab and come pick it back up. No biscuits or waffles when we came in either. Sad!! Make sure to skip this little place, not worth it. read more

Wow! Amazing is all I can say! We stopped off for breakfast in our way home from visiting relatives and man was this place good. Very friendly down home service and awesome food. The fresh homemade donuts are amazing I would make another stop just for them!! Warm, fluffy, cinnamon and sugar goodness is the only way to describe them, if you stop here you have to try them! They only accept cash but there is an ATM around the corner. Clean bathrooms, reasonable prices, and great service. This place seems like a place that all the locals hang out at because the food and service are so good. read more

clean place. had a double cheese burger. very good. fries were natural cut most will like them. I would stop again. very fast service if you are traveling you can be in and out with good food. read more

Miz Zip's - double cheese burger, fries and salad. all very good. - American Near Me - Flagstaff, Arizona

See all

Horrible. For me that's saying something because I'm the type of person wouldn't even complain about Denny's food. My wife couldn't eat her eggs. How can you mess up eggs. My french toast not only looked bad it taste bad. I told the waitress that the bread was stale. All she said was ok. No apology or nothing read more

Nope... came here for breakfast. Food had zero flavor, coffee was weak. Staff was nice and the place was cute enough... but can't make up for the rubbery eggs, biscuits from a can, sad gravy and wonderbread feench toast... and cash or check only read more

We chose this cafe because of positive reviews and we were not disappointed. The breakfast fare is tasty, well executed (no soggy hash browns here!) and the menu offered something for everyone. I had the green Chile and cheese omelet and should I pass through Flagstaff again, I'll dine here again. Locals eat here, a good sign and the cafe is decorated with Hwy 66 memorabilia. Don't let the cash only payment policy deter you from what I consider the Real Deal! read more

I love these guys, they aren't afraid of showing who they are. And they are delicious. Your prototypical "down-home" cooking with homemade pies, which are probably the best in town. I go here for lunch, but I should come here for breakfast and dinner. Please try the Zip burger and fries, the Cleavers would approve. I give four because it's cash only and a kinda out of the way place in the middle of Rte. 66. Try to avoid the lunch and dinner crowds if possible. read more

Awesome food! Everyone was super nice. Adorable atmosphere. Best apple pie I've ever had!!! The only possible negative is that they only take cash. I was more than happy to go around the corner to an atm for this place. read more

Yuck. Don't waste your money! Food is cheap and greasy. Everything tasted old stale and bland.

Came here for breakfast and the food was really gross. $10 for chicken fried steak that tasted like the meat and gravy was spoiled. The biscuits were literally canned biscuits. Disgusting. read more

One of my most favorite gems in Flagstaff! My family has been coming here for years. It is cash only. That's an important thing to know about Miz Zip's. But, that stop at the bank for some cash to come here is worth it. Food is wonderful. After all the years of coming here, never had a bad experience. Ever! Friendly faces. Nice, down to earth, "flagstaff" experience. Make sure you get some pie for dessert! read more

Stopped in today for a piece of pie and coffee, I was very impressed. The piece of apple pie was large, tasty, with alot apples, and the crust was light and flaky. This was the best slice of restaurant pie I have eaten in a Flagstaff Restaurant in the 12 years I have been in this area. read more

I'm currently staying in a hotel nearby and I've been here 3 times in the last week. The food is okay but for some reason every time we come in the hostess has been extremely rude to my sister and I. We have been very polite and I do not believe we have done anything to offend them. The only reason that I can imagine for this rude treatment is racism. Nonetheless we will not be returning here. read more

First went here in 1978 as we stopped for dinner on a cross country trip. It was a memorable meal that we didn't forget! We went back in late 1990's after a move to AZ and anytime we were in the Flagstaff area that was our #1 spot but NOT anymore! Just this week we stopped by just to get their signature homemade pie and even though it was only 4 pm they had run out of pie! How is this possible? It is clear that over the years the quality of their food was not as good and their service was uneven but the pie was always outstanding. Extremely disappointed my the recent visit! read more

Wonderful! Fantastic French dip with green chilies and Swiss cheese. Comes with a side...we did homemade beef and veggies soup which was great..full of fresh cut veggies. Their apple pie is the bomb!! Just a great place to eat. BUT. .cash only as of October 2014. read more

Oh boy, what a disappointment. This was our first restaurant to try in Flagstaff for our vacation. When we walked in, the ambiance was somewhat homely and comfortable. When we received our menus we saw that the choice was very limited. We ordered two bowls of vegetable beef soup, one bowl of chili, the dinner steak, a porterhouse steak, the patty steak, and a breakfast dish consisting of two eggs and some sausages. When we received our chili and vegetable soup, the quality was that of a canned soup. The vegetable soup was downright grotesque. It tasted so bad, that I can't even describe it. The chili tasted even worse than Hormel's canned chili. The steak was EVEN WORSE. My dinner steak was ordered medium well, but it was overcooked and under-seasoned. I literally poured out nearly 1/4 out of the salt shaker, but it didn't even change marginally. Thank god the British brought A1 to America. I had to pour A1 ALL OVER the steak just to add flavor. Toughest steak of my life. The burger steak that was ordered to be medium rare was WELL DONE and tough as well. Like everyone else that I was dining with, they poured A1 all over (except the breakfast dish). Because we didn't want to make the staff feel like they were serving us horrible food (which they did), we covered our food with napkins to cover up the huge portion that we didn't eat. Luckily for me, I had a few crackers that they served with the lurid vegetable soup. I actually considered the crackers to be dinner. P.S: They take cash only. read more

My dad and I came to Miz Zip's for dessert. We ordered a Dutch Cherry Pie, an Apple pie, a cherry coca-cola, and a strawberry shake. Pie-wise, the cherry pie was excellent, but the apple pie was mediocre. The drinks however, were fantastic! The cherry coke wasn't just the stuff that comes in the can; it was far sweeter, as if some cherry syrup had been added to the actual coke. The shake had chunks of actual strawberry in it, and was homemade the old fashioned way. Overall, we'll we coming back again! read more

While waiting to get our truck fixed at ACCU-Brake we went nextdoor for lunch. What a fun place. A phelrhroa of memorabilia from Route 66 days and great food. Best fries! read more

Great food, fun decor, excellent service. I enjoyed our stop here for lunch and would come back again easily.

I have lived in Flagstaff for almost 5 years now and I finally decided to have dinner here. I have heard about its history and how it is pretty historic. However, the food was not great at all! Everything we tried was very bland and had no flavor at all. I had high hopes but unfortunately this is not a place I would recommend. read more

I love this type of diner. The food is average - nothing to write home about but nothing to complain about. The staff are exceedingly pleasant, the price is right and there is a lively buzz in the air. It's a great place to dine as your passing through town. read more

Old style cafe on route 66 in flagstaff, az. Very good food and service. Be sure to check out the specials before you order or you might miss out on something good. Only con, cash only. No credit cards. However, that is probably keeping the meals affordable. read more

The omelet I had this morning was without doubt the worst omelet I have ever had and the next worst was 10X better. This was the first time I ever ate there and the last. Perhaps something else would have been better ....let me rephrase that ...anything else would have been better. All together counting tip the bill was $13. I left a tip because the service was very good....they can't help it the food was bad. Denny's has great omelets as do many other Flagstaff restaurants. My recommendation is go to any of them. read more

One of my husband's nostalgic places from college. We are simple breakfast people. It's hard to disappoint. But, we will return.

Ate here this evening. I ordered the zipburger, salad, and fries. I figured the salad would come soon, like before my burger and fries, but it came when the burger and fries were done. Food was cold when it came to us. The burger was tasteless and small, even McDonald cheeseburgers had way more taste than what I ate. Fries were good, but the salad was poorly made. I was thinking something decent with croutons and tomatoes/cucumbers, but all that was in it was lettuce and bits of celery. read more

I really wanted to like this place, I saw the reviews and thought it might be a fun place to eat, 50's diner, route 66, fell for all that...actually, it was that, and that is about all, it was nice and clean, booths were comfortable after driving for 12 hours, the food was ok, hamburger and home cut fries, but the hamburger was small like what you could get at McDonalds for 1.00, the fries were home cut, but looked like they went for a swim in grease, not good and crispy and salty. The waitress was friendly, kept up with keeping our tea filled, But, guess I have eaten too much good food to be much impressed with this...Would I go back, sorry to say, probably not... I hear their pies are very good, maybe they should just call it a pie and coffee shop read more

Terrible food, worst gravy EVER! Empty restaurant but, Slow service! Never offered to take off or replace inedible items.

My family and I went to this place as we like to try new things when we travel. We absolutely loved the food the environment and the people. One of the best experiences on this trip we had. We will be back for sure! Eat here you won't be disappointed. read more

We ate here last week just before leaving town to continue our trip. It was a very pleasant find, and completely accidental. I loved the period atmosphere, which I learned from asking is authentic, from the mid '50's. We had a great breakfast, coffee was great, service was good....nothing not to like. Recommend! read more

Delicous food for a good price. Really enjoyed it. Sweet place and very friendly service.

We stumbled upon this place thanks to Yelp, and we were totally pleased! Wonderful service by a sweet girl, I think her name was Jessica. She knew the menu like the back of her hand, and food came out really quick. The dessert was TO DIE FOR. Do NOT come here without trying their homemade pies!! Cherry and apple were both incredible. I've only been to Flagstaff once before, but now I know I'll definitely be back for another slice of that pie. read more

My family and I first discovered Miz Zip's in 1971 when we emigrated from WI to Flagstaff. Over the years, we have enjoyed countless meals at this wonderful restaurant. My wife and I moved away for many years, while my parents stayed in Flag making friends with the owners. Now, the daughter runs the place, but recognized our last name when we ate there and paid with a personal check. She called to see if we were related and had so many wonderful memories of our parents. I could go on and on about these wonderful people and their establishment, but go there yourself, eat the great food and for sure, get a slice of the homemade pie. You will not regret the experience! read more

Coffee was weak as in most diners. The hashbrowns were extremely dry. I ordered my eggs over hard egg but arrived over easy. At this point I was too hungry to send it back. Probably should have tried the place down the street. read more

I love this place. I grew up coming here as it has been in Flagstaff since the early 50's. From what I can remember the interior hasn't changed much. The food is what I remember from a child. This location is not glitzy, fancy, or the new age type food or location that is out there. This is old fashioned home cooked meals. Usually locals are the ones eating here and every time I go I always see someone I know. I also love that it does not take credit cards or debit cards. It's cash only. If you want to eat here, you have to have cash. The service is relaxed and good. If you are expecting amazing service with butt kissing, a top notch location with gadgets and gizmos, this is not the place for you. Honestly, just don't go, the location and those who love the place don't need you there. Stay on the west side of town near the campus. I get the Zip Burger and fries, it is my favorite. The service is good, the food comes fast and hot, the food is good and reminds me of my childhood. The food is also reasonably priced too. Honestly, I want to give a lower rating to detour people from coming here, but I don't want to do the location any injustice for being pretty awesome. I hope you enjoy the location and will feel the home town feeling that this place has. Also, bring your cash, don't be a snarky Phoenician or tourist who can't "afford" to carry cash. read more

My husband & I love small local diners and we do business in Flagstaff quite often. Had the zip burger, tasted like cardboard, my husband had the chicken fried steak, said it was tasteless. Had a flat soda that she didn't charge me for, but had a "who cares" attitude. Didn't try the pie, just wanted to get out of there. Run for you lives.... read more

We have been in here for breakfast before and it was alright, On Friday we went for lunch and I had a bleh patty melt no flavor, Don't go here if you don't have cash or check! The food is so-so and the service is a bit less. The Pie I got was so runny they gave it to me in a bowl with a spoon, no kidding. read more

Went to brunch with some friends today. I had only been to Miz Zips once before, but after this visit will definitely be visiting again. It is like an old west cafe type of restaurant, very unique. The food was great for diner type food and the price was even better. The portions are just right, and you have to try a malt as they are REALLY good! The staff is very friendly and is very much attentive to their customers; even when there was a line to get in. Be prepared though, as they only take cash for payment (unusual in this day and age), no debit or credit cards are taken. I would prefer this little treasure over others for sure! read more
