We stopped here on our way from Denver to SLC. Very cute retro diner in a converted Airstream. Menu is concise with all the deliciousness you'd expect including hand spun shakes, greasy burgers, and breakfast all day. They're literally open 24 hours. Service is friendly and ambience nostalgic. read more

Food was mediocre. Hashbrowns were no shade of brown. They were out of ham. The ladies bathroom was filthy. The counter wasn't clean. When I sat down I had to push a dirty plate and silverware out of my way, and the mess sat there throughout my meal. My husband never got the milk he ordered. We heard one of the people who was preparing food that she was so sick that morning she passed out on bathroom floor. Stay away!!! read more

Pretty good breakfast spot When it's open !!! But you never know when that will be!! The last 4 times I've driven by this place has been closed! Whoever is the manager needs to be let go and get someone that will open the doors on a consistent basis read more

We headed in with high expectations which were not met. First there are no real menus but a qr code. Payment plus tip needs to be made before you can place your order. Then, the service was slow. My husband got his grilled cheese sandwich, cold, and was finished before I got any of my meal. The cottage cheese that was ordered and paid for was not available. The fries came as an after thought. We definitely would have eaten elsewhere had we known. read more

Service was great. Diner atmosphere with plenty of 1950s records and pictures . Food was delicious! read more

Penny's Diner - Chopped beef steak topped with grilled onions and sautéed mushrooms . Plus a green bean and bacon vegetable - Diners Near Me - Rawlins, Wyoming

One of the most rudest places I've ever went to try and get breakfast. I stood there for 10 minutes while a waitress cleaned the table with a phone up to her ear and made no acknowledgment that I was even there. And that was not the first time that has happened read more

Terrible place they need to demolish this location owners should be ashamed to even operate it. It's never open and they always have excuse for why they can't serve you. Only place I've seen with an open sign that means open door but no food read more

Everything we ordered was delicious and the fries were amazing!! Our server was also the chef and he didn't write a thing down when he took our group of 7 orders and he got it all perfectly. It's such a perfect 50s diner and we will definitely stop here again next time we're driving through read more

Yeah, no... if you're not going to be open please post it. No service no food... just nope.

The diner was charming and food was quick and delicious! Leroy was personable and kind. Great environment for a quick food stop.

It seems it's for hotel guests only. I was disappointed, it looked like a really cool restaurant!

This is a true dinner. I had some great counter service and the build your own breakfast sandwich was just amazing. I went with Sourdough bread, bacon, cheddar cheese and and an over easy egg. Hash browns were good too. read more

Penny's Diner - Good cup of coffee - Diners Near Me - Rawlins, Wyoming

Old fashioned diner themed restaurant with a variety of food choices. Great home cooked meals at reasonable prices. The biscuits and gravy were amazing and the cowboy chili burger hit the spot! The portions huge so bring your appetite! read more

Service was friendly and easy. There is an QR code menu but you can order directly with the staff. Cash only. I ordered a cheese and sausage omelette and a side of bacon. Everything came out hot and tasty. A great pitstop just off the interstate. Be online menu needs to be revised as not all the menu items are available. read more

Never got served. Watched as other tables were served even though they arrived after us. Kept being told our food was coming soon. Finally got up and left $5 for the orange juice and coffee. read more

My friend and I, and her special needs son, went in yesterday between 1:30 and 2:00 in the afternoon, and while we saw a couple of open tables, they indicated they were not serving anyone at that time. Having a special needs individual with us, I feel we were discriminated against. I would keep driving up the road to the Peppermill, as they were VERY welcoming and our server was the best I've ever had. read more

Great little diner. The people serving and cooking were very nice. I had the patty melt and my husband had the chicken fried steak plate. The food was very tasty and the servings were so generous. It was a clean place with old 33 and 45 records on the wall. Very nostalgic! We will return on future road trips! read more

Same as other reviews. Walked in at noon and was told they were not serving people. I would choose someplace else.

Exactly what we needed after a day of driving to circumvent road closures. Monterey chicken was yummy and veggie omelet the best. Fast and friendly service. read more

Good diner food and a great classic diner aesthetic with the setup and decorations! A filling meal for around $10-$15. We were just passing through and it was a good spot to stop at. The area is so gorgeous with the terrain and mountains!! Got some looks due to clearly being out of towners but didn't mind so much One person was friendly and asked where we were from and talked to us, so it wasn't just awkward. read more

Good diner food with great flavor. Worth the calories. Had chicken fried steak which could have been hotter. Hash browns were sent back to be crispier. She was happy to do so. Grill not holding temps that morning. Service got friendlier as we were there. They were quite busy & efficient so I get it. Our second time there & we will return. read more

We stayed in the hotel next door and took advantage of the breakfast offer. Well worth it, many items to pick ranging to lite style to hearty lumberjack. It was everything expected for a 24 hour diner car. Clean, friendly staff, fast service. read more

Great service even better food highly recommend stopping in and trying the breakfast burrito

Stopped by on the way to Colorado and we came in a busy time and the staff was overwhelmed and was showing their frustration to us. They also weren't really attentive and never came back to refill our waters and forgot multiple things. The food wasn't the best and it was very dry. Everything tasted plain and simple. It's good for a trip because it was convenient but i wouldn't come back again if I was on another road trip. read more

Penny's Diner - Golden Chicken Tenders - Diners Near Me - Rawlins, Wyoming

isnt even a 1 star.. we came in and they refused to serve us as she said it was busy and shift change over which isn't true.. I would def not recommend this place. Run down and dirty.. I don't now how it's still running!! Would never go to this place again., read more

Rude service, not welcoming at all. Stopped in on a holiday weekend and hope for some good food. There was one table. The rest were dirty and the hostess told us it would be at least 20 minutes if we wanted to eat in a snotty tone as if we were inconveniencing her. We won't be back. read more

Terrible service, very small place. We came here to have breakfast, when we walked in the cashier didn't even acknowledged us. I asked her if we sit ourselves and she ignored me. I asked her again and she said it would be a while. If you're from California definitely don't come here, the vibes and energy are so off. read more

Stay on Interstate 80 and find something else, the staff was nice enough but watching the cook seemed unhappy and short on kindness with the other staff. Not much else to choose from in town but maybe get you some fries at McDonald's to hold ya over until next town? I ordered waffle with eggs and bacon. Waffle came out cold and had to ask for another one~rubber. Coffee so so and didn't even offer water. Will not stop here again. read more

The sign said "open" and I walked in at 8:55p (Google Maps said they were open until 10) but was told (rather rudely) they wouldn't seat me. No explanation. I saw empty booths.....I took the hint and left. I told others in the parking lot and they were disappointed too. read more

This was a nice stop on a long drive from Denver to SLC. It does double duty as the front desk for the motel behind it and being a diner. Apparently, there are several of these making it a limited chain. We went in, they took our names, and had us wait in the car until there was a place open. They are practicing good COVID practice, even if some of the guests don't seem to. I got the Philly Cheesesteak and the wife got a patty melt. No, it did not taste like it would in Philly, but it was very good as was the patty melt. It was worth needing to spent 45 minutes listening to a book in the car while we waited. read more

I liked the exterior it had that nostalgic diner look. I was there for breakfast and the place was busy but I found a booth. The place wasn't real clean and the staff was less than freindly. My waitress was eating her breakfast behind the counter while while performing her duties. I ordered eggs,bacon,hashbrowns and whole wheat toast. The breakfast was okay except for the soggy bacon. I thought the prices were a dollar more than fair. In summary a not so clean place with poor customer service, average food and prices that are a little high. I can't recommend this place and I won't go back. read more

Penny's Diner - Diners Near Me - Rawlins, Wyoming

This place should be avoided. We walked in and it took more than five minutes for us to be greeted. Once greeted we were told "there's no room in here for you".. which obviously caught me off guard. So I ask "okay? How long might the wait be?"... to which I was told "We don't know because we are full". I'm sorry? Is this their first day open? Does anyone here have an understanding of good business practices and/or basic customer service skills?? We definitely won't be returning to this "establishment" as the waitress and host were extremely rude and appear to lack basic hygiene. read more

Hood good, pleasant staff but on this day understaffed but they did their best. Just have to be patient.

The 5 of us from south Florida went for breakfast and it was really good. They have an online ordering system but it would not alert you to items they are out of stock. The food was really good and made in front of you. Refills were offered many times and also were continually checked on. Breakfast was very good and the cinnamon bun was big and good. read more

The staff is friendly, the place is a quaint old diner and clean. I had a cheese burger and chips. That burger was actually grilled on a grill and not the flat top. It had tons of flavor and I truly enjoyed every bite! My husband had a club sandwich and he enjoyed every bite. I had a chocolate coke....yum and my husband had a cherry coke that must've had a dozen cherries in it lol read more

Penny's Diner - Nice open grill. - Diners Near Me - Rawlins, Wyoming

Well, I should have been tipped off when I noticed the check in for the motel was inside the diner. The lady at the front was friendly enough but she was checking someone in as she took my money for dinner. Where to start... The place only had 4 people eating so I figured service would be fast and friendly. It was fast enough but the guy cooking/took our order/seated us was far from friendly. Chili cheeseburger w/fries. The fries were fine but that's all that was. One hamburger patty on the bottom half of the bun. No top half. Covered in what they called chili. It had beans so it wasn't chili. No flavor at all. Let's definitely not call this guy a chef. Not even a cook. I'll call him "Microwave Man" because that's all he did. Someone orders chili dogs. I watched as he put 2 dogs in the microwave and zap them. After he put the "chili" on my burger, he threw a little shredded cheese on top and zapped it too. Someone else had ordered a side of mixed veg. I watched as he put a baggie with veggies into the microwave and "cooked" them. Why he was wearing gloves I don't know. He not only touched food with them, he touched everything else as well. You'd be better off going to the store and getting bologna and white bread. The whole place could really use a good scrub down as well. This has got to be one of the worst I've ever been to. Yelp really needs to update their app so we can leave 0 stars. Like this place deserves. read more

A lot of good and flavorful food...at least our breakfast was! I've had better chicken fried steak...the only thing that wasn't super, but still acceptable. The place is cute, but very space limited. Several customers left after standing for awhile and waiting for a seat. I felt bad about that considering there isn't much of a choice in this town. The staff is very friendly and courteous. Kudos! read more
