This came up on my Instagram feed and I just wanted to go try it. Oh my gosh am I glad I did. It's an East side gem. The place is an old style diner with friendly service affordable prices and delicious food. Our server was remarkably kind and patient. It's a charming atmosphere with an extensive menu, and I know breakfast can be kind of generic but there was something about it that both of us mentioned at the same time that this was like the breakfast we used to get when we were kids and we went out for a special Sunday morning family breakfast together, if that makes sense? LOL we enjoyed it a lot and I hope you do too. read more

Palmers Inn Restaurant - NY Strip and Eggs. - Diners Near Me - Saint Clair Shores, Michigan

Nothing bad / nothing great. Service was good, portions huge . Typical mom- pop diner. Went with Greek omelette/ hash browns- tasted ok. Toast included. Very cold inside- never took winter coat off. 2 breakfast specials, 1 soft drink - $22 pre tip. Yet another place that charges more for credit card. read more

The food is wonderful and so is the service. Most little restaurants serve slop since Covid, not here. The cook actually cares and the prices are very good. They're right in line with all the other small restaurants around here. Plus, everyone is super nice. read more

Having your food catered to our party was absolutely wonderful. The food arrived on time fresh and piping hot. Everyone came to me and stated they were very happy with the taste of the food. I highly recommended to everyone to contact your restaurant when they are in need of a caterer. read more

This restaurant is amazing. Always has very accommodating staff, and most importantly (to me) the restaurant is clean. Food always comes out at the perfect temperature. Highly recommend read more

Here's my issue! I eat here.. good food but damn!!! 3.99 for fries?? I got a bill for 20.00... for a double cheeseburger, fries and coffee!!! Holy cow, does Gordon Ramsay own this joint??? Seriously??? 20.00 for a 10.00 meal? You charged me for fries...4.00!!! Now I can buy a bag of potatoes for 4.00!!! Burger was 11.99??? Wow!! Steak??? Hamburger isn't that expensive!!! Somehow we lost our way. No ma and pop place that values it's local customer base should be charging this much money for... let me say it..... simple, no brains required to cook.... Food! If I want to spend 20.00 on a burger and fries with a drink... I'm nuts!!! Gilbert's... down the street is cheaper!! And you get fries with their burger! How many potatoes do you think it took to make my Handful of fries??? 1-1 1/2... about .40 cents... now I'm paying 10 times the cost to make my fries??? No way!! Fix this and stop ripping people off!!! read more

Palmers Inn Restaurant - 20.00?????? Seriously!!!!! Unreal!!! So expensive!!! This is a 10.00 meal everywhere!!!! - Diners Near Me - Saint Clair Shores, Michigan

Fast excellent service, delicious hot food the fries were crispy and the chicken salad was full of juicy flavorful chicken. Every time we have eaten here we have had a great experience. The ambiance is an old school diner very welcoming and chill. read more

Prices are so high on your food. Ridiculous. Why? I compared your prices to other restaurants and yours are higher. For instance, your biscuits & gravy are $8.95 for a full order & $6.50 for half. Copper Penny restaurant is $5.49 for a full order. Nick's Country Oven is $6.99 for a full order & $5.29 for half, in the example. read more

Went there with my wife and two kids. We sat there for 20 minutes without a single person coming to the booth. We left. Really poor service. Best of luck. read more

Great diner food at a fair price when carried out or dining in. Door dash prices are higher so take the time to come in and say hello to the people cooking and serving your food! Inside can be a little cramped for breakfast time, but there's a reason there's a crowd isn't there? Good food, good prices. Another solid, local joint. read more

Yummy....I got the chicken sciliano, it comes with spaghetti, a lot of spaghetti. Two good chicken breast, and I love the ammoguio sauce. Not sure how to spell it, but don't forget it! garlicy tomato concoction to dip the chicken breast in. Loved it. You could get one dinner for two people. You also get soup salad or cole slaw with it. read more

Typical greasy Greek place to grab some great chow cheap and always good SCS great place read more

The carry out boxes are always messed out. You can tell they sit in the window and burned and they just rubberbaneded the box and said it was good enough. Personally, that's not acceptable when you're a paying customer. Service is sub par, the servers are constantly picked on by red necks so I'm not surprised they're worn out. They don't know how to cook eggs correct. Not sure what has changed over the last few years with management but the food quality has gone down forsure. read more

Palmers Inn Restaurant - My sunny side up egg is over cooked. - Diners Near Me - Saint Clair Shores, Michigan

We stopped through Palmer's for breakfast randomly when the place we were headed to was closed. We were greeted by a friendly waitress who made us feel at home. She was enthusiastic when asked about the menu items and she provided great service throughout our meal. The food was homemade and delicious! Must say- there are many diners and coneys in this area that seem to miss the mark on flavorful meals despite being home cooked. Palmers is great at home cooking and comfort food. We truly enjoyed our meal- enough to return for dinner 3 days later. The atmosphere feels friendly neighborhood, the service is top notch, the food is delicious, the prices are fair. Portions are decent. Only downfall- pop is 2.25 with one free refill. Not a big pop drinker but worth mentioning. read more

Palmers Inn Restaurant - Diners Near Me - Saint Clair Shores, Michigan

Palmers Inn has the atmosphere of a family diner. I sit at the counter during the week for lunch. The owner, waitstaff, cooks, and bussers are all incredible people. I have never had a meal I did not like at this restaurant. Try it out......you will definitely come back! read more

We rather enjoy Palmer's. Their breakfasts are phenomenal and their menu has a wide variety. I have only had the chicken parmigiana for dinner because it's so good I don't want to try anything else. My only complaint would be that during the Sunday breakfast rush the place can be a little small for the number of tables so it feels crowded and kind of loud. read more

So we tried it... I got my usual 2 to 3 egg, multi meat meal... Sucked... The egg yolks were as white as the whites! No flavor, cold... BLEH! Also the coffee tasted like watered down Sanka... Avoid at all costs... I don't see how this place has been open so long! read more

This place is awful. It's no wonder it's filled with old people that have no tastebuds. Their food is horrible. They have absolutely the worst hash browns that I've ever had, bar none. The atmosphere is quaint, and it's an "everyone knows everyone" sort of place, but you don't feel out of place. You get the feeling that if you went there more than a couple of times they would know your name and everything you generally order. That said, the food isn't worth ordering. It's flat out horrible. Their has browns had no flavor, their soup looks like it's from a can, the eggs had no buttery flavor, even their breakfast meat was subpar. I stay right down the street on a great number of occasions, but I'll drive right by this joint to go somewhere else. Noni's? Red Olive? National? All better options. Heck even Travis has better food. read more

Always past this place up till my dentist recommended it. After our first visit my wife and I were hooked. Excellent meals at great prices, large portions, great service. The smothered chicken is one of our favorites (breakfasts are great as well) most under $7.00 special at $5.25 read more

I've been passing this place up for a greasy spoon that old people lacking taste buds go to. But I ate here once and fell in love with their food. The place is, quite honestly, a tad grungy in that old, worn, but clean kind of way. I ordered the stuffed cabbage with rice pilaf. As a side note, you Metro Detroiters don't realize what a nice option rice pilaf is over potatoes--it's great! It's one thing I miss about the area after having moved out of state....but I digress. The pilaf was savory with nicely seasoned tomato "gravy". I also ordered the split pea soup--some of the best split pea soup I've ever had, containing lean ham and not too overly salty--the way most diners do. Oh and the prices are crazy low for the quality and quantity of food! My mom had the chicken parmesan. She let me have some, and I though that it would be really sub-par, but was honestly surprised at how savory and meaty the sauce was, and the chicken was very nicely seasoned with a light batter. The owner's wife was sitting at the counter, and gave me the evil eye when I got a little animated about the food. But being Greektalian I got to get excited a little! We'll be back! read more

Very good, home cooking. Great menu selections, such as their fish dinners on Friday. The wait staff is friendly, offering fast service. I highly recommend this great place for a good meal read more

Usually the food is ok but today ordered the hamburger and egg breakfast. Eggs way over cooked and hamburger was hard over cooked couldn't even eat the service was slow no water or coffee for 15 minutes tables got served prior to us that came in 10 minutes after us. The waitress didn't even ask me if I wanted a box I ate 2 bites and put on the side. Never asked how was my meal because I would have told them bill came to $33.00 will never go there again. read more

I give four instead of three stars because my family and I (theres at least 6 total) come here every sunday after church. We know all the waitresses and they know us and what we usually order. The food is pretty simple but I think its great. My 4 year old loves two eggs over medium and they are always great and I trust them. We have pretty much tried everything on the menu and I haven't found something I don't like. (But I don't like lamb so I've never ordered it) Side note their navy bean soup is to die for!!!! read more

Live around here but never stopped in. Today I stopped and got a spaghetti dinner carryout. It was really good! Yes I was surprised but happy. It's an unassuming place that has been there for years. Give it a try. Good Italian dressing, the thick kind. The spaghetti took up the whole container, and had a cheese melted on top. I forgot to ask for parmesan cheese, but it was in there already. I'll stop again. read more

I've been eating here 2-4 times a week since I moved back to SCS. Small town atmosphere, great food and can't beat the price! Their ham and the lemon rice soup are my two favorites. I always order my hash browns crispy, otherwise they're not done enough, but I can't get enough of the food. Plus when you can feed a family for 3 for $20 including tip you just can't beat it read more

Palmers Inn Restaurant - Mini Special - Diners Near Me - Saint Clair Shores, Michigan

Came here for breakfast. The corned beef hash was made with stuff that came out of a can, still tasty, nothing special. Good service.

Always my favorite place to come in Saint Clair Shores for breakfast. The burgers are slamming and the service is always so kind. The owner makes contact with every customer. Which as someone in the service industry, it's nice to hear. Always a great vibe. Thank you read more
