Peter Pan recently reopened after a fire took out the old location in 2024. Walking into a brand-new version of a place that's been around for generations is a little strange, but the rebuilt space holds onto the diner's identity well enough. Food 4/5 We ordered an omelette and basic eggs. Both came out well, not overcooked, not swimming in grease. Nothing on the plate is going to end up in a food magazine, but solid comfort food. No digestion issues. Service 4/5 I ordered the wrong thing by mistake and they fixed it quickly without any fuss. The waitress came by once for follow up. Ambiance 4/5 Modern lighting, nostalgic photos on the walls. You can still tell this place has some history behind it, even if the walls are new. Cleanliness 5/5 Brand new construction, so a 5 here is the starting point, not an achievement. Still, it was clean. Bathroom didn't look like it was remodeled (at least not the floor.) No issues though. Passed the inconspicuous location dirt test. Parking 2/5 There's a lot, but it's on the small side. At busy times it can be difficult to park there and the parking lot becomes a maze of cars squeezed in all over. Value 4/5 Supposedly any meal before 3 PM comes with pancakes. Ours didn't. I wasn't planning to eat them anyway so I let it go, but worth knowing if you were counting on that. Portions are fair for what you pay. Overall 4/5 Peter Pan is back. The food is what it should be, the service works, and the space is comfortable without overdoing it. I'll be back. read more

A family institution that has been ruined. We have been going here for four generations and sadly have no desire to return anymore. We visited twice since it's reopening after the fire. The last visit confirmed that we'll never go back. There are other LI diners with better pricing, food and service. Our last visit started with hot coffee being spilled on my husband's hand by the employee. Then there was no spoon to stir the sugar when a new cup was provided. We had to flag another employee to get a spoon since she disappeared. Never was offered refill on coffee or water. The waitress was nice but lacked training, she didn't even know the menu that the eggs Benedict order was missing the spinach. We received 2 orders with iced cold over cooked poached eggs, the waitress response was that she saw the cook take them out of the water. Also one of them was missing the spinach. Back they went to be made correctly. The new orders came back and one was missing the cooked tomatoes. We didn't mention this because we just wanted to eat. Our eating was stopped early due to the black hair found under the poacher egg. By then we gave up, flagged down another employee because we couldn't find our waitress. She reluctantly took the hairy eggs and we asked for the manager. The manager didn't come to the table but the waitress came back and said the manager said we wouldn't be charged. We left a tip on the table and left heartbroken that the Peter Pan Diner we knew and loved was gone forever. Maybe the new social media guy they hired can help this mess since it appears that they are trying to go the trendy route. read more

Extremely disappointed after two visits. The first time my burger medium came out raw, but it was opening weekend and you expect a few mixups, on the second visit the tom turkey wrap bore no resemblance to what was normal pre fire. I was served a salad wrap with a turkey cameo. The food is nothing like it was before the fire. The staff seems like this is their first job and the remodel is insane. It is loud, adding a bar in a place that closes at 10 pm is a waste and adding a tree to collect dust is an error. The menu is limited, which is fine but I expect you to do them well. The only thing that has increased are the prices. This is bad. This is bad-bad. read more

Welcome back it was a little late but not as long as they said it was nice to be back after a year after the fire I had turkey bacon eggs over easy toast french fries prices went up a little bit, but after the fire, I guess it's worth it now they have a little bar area. It seems like it's bigger with more seating. The service was good. The young lady took care of us very nice and friendly even the guy who cleaned up the tables we gave him a tip as well. He's very helpful. read more

The restaurant has been done. I went on a Saturday and it was a little busy. It took about 10 minutes for us to be seated. Food came quickly and the food is good. I was able to replace pork sausage with turkey which is a bonus. The waitress and assistant were nice and very attentive. Prices went up a little but not too bad. Ambiance is a diner vibe with a bar. read more

The food was tasty; I'll give them that. But it was sooo noisy I wanted to leave before we were even seated (but my companion refused). Along with my food I got a headache. It was also freezing cold, in spite of a sweatshirt. Twice in the hour we were there the wait staff "yelled out" that they had a customer with a birthday & led a chorus of "happy birthday." I assume this is a known thing but it was an interruption. Not that we could have much a conversation anyway due to the noise level. The prices were unbelievable. No listed price for coffee so I didn't order, as my omelette with home fries & toast was $20! Never again. Before we left I visited the restroom. Wow, what a difference; warm & quiet. I wish I had eaten my breakfast there. read more

I was one of a last people walking in on a Saturday night almost at closing time. I was surprised by the level of service and attention I received. Speaking from experience, in other places, usually they rush people out to close. Not here! The food was freshly prepared and delicious. The ambiance was great (a mixture of old and new) and everything was spotless. read more

The food was delicious however I think the portions are not diner sized. When I think diner I think large portions and hearty meals. Maybe it's inflation but for the price I thought I would get more. The service was quick and thoughtful and I am very glad to have a traditional diner back in Bay Shore. read more

They recently reopened. The restaurant is nicely decorated and clean since it's brand new. Service was just adequate. We were seated pretty quickly, waiting less than 10 minutes. The menu items were pricey, and the food was just okay. We ordered a cafe mocha, a caramel latte, and the combo fajitas with chicken, steak, and shrimp for $29.95. The meat portion was small, mostly veggies and cheese, and it came with only three small tortillas and no other sides. The fajitas had good flavor, but there were only three pieces of shrimp. Overall, it was an okay experience, and for the price, I probably wouldn't go back. read more

At last!! Our beloved Peter Pan Diner has finally opened. After a devastating fire, the restaurant has welcomed back loyal patrons.Today, I went to have breakfast with my parents. It's situated on the Service Road North at Sunrise Highway. The parking lot was packed. We waited for about 20 minutes for a table. After waiting, we were seated at a booth. The decor is similar to the previous one; it's more warm and inviting with dark bronze and wood tones, with a touch of a beautiful green, that reminds me of the Irish Spring soap. The staff, as always were at all times, polite and met all our needs. I saw that most of the old customers recognized the workers, waiting at their tables; chatting amicably. As for our orders, we're sticking to the classics. Veggie omelette for me.amd my mom, two fried eggs, sausage and toast for my dad. Every was hot and very tasty. We will come back again. read more

So glad they are back. I returned to Peter Pan Diner today and it was worth the wait. I called the day before because I was going with a party of eleven and they said to arrive about 15-20 minutes early to help prepare. We waited about 25 minutes and and everyone had a great time. The host Rolando was honest and patient and he made sure we were seated comfortably. The service and food were great. Good size portions and everyone's food came out relatively together and warm. I had the scrambled eggs with cheese, sausage, bacon, potatoes and a toasted bagel. It was all cooked well and as I requested. In fact everyone's order was correct even the person who ordered steak and eggs. The staff sang Happy Birthday to my sister and other customers joined in. I loved the atmosphere of the place and the nostalgic pictures on the walls reminding everyone that this place has history! The tab for 11 people to have breakfast was $272 which averages to about $25 per person which was more than fair for freshly made food that didn't taste commercial. I look forward to returning for many more years. read more

So glad to be back at Peter Pan Diner! They did a fantastic job making the place modern, without losing the nostalgic feel. It's great to see a menu with a variety of familiar classics, as well as many with a new twist. If you have Carolina as your waitress, check out her fun earrings (tonight they were gummy worms!). Looking forward to many more years of good food shared amongst great friends! read more

Went for lunch at the newly refurbished PPD. One thing that hasn't changed is lack of parking tho there really is no room for improvement. One of us had a delicious cheeseburger piled high with raw onions(requested) & extra crispy French fries. Another had a Grilled chicken wrap which was deliciously moist in the thinnest wrap with amazing seasonings & of course fries. Lastly was a grilled chicken salad with tender chunks of chicken again seasoned to perfection. We each were served pickles & cole slaw to start. The place was pristine & bustling with a 20 minute wait. Our waitress Athenna was friendly & very welcoming. The old world pics added to the beautiful surroundings. Maybe have someone drop you off because parking was not good as previously stated. Definitely worth a visit maybe during off hours. read more

Was thrilled to be back at the Peter Pan after all this time. Renovations are beautiful and it looked very clean. Menu is slimmed down, but had all the things you'd expect to be able to get a diner. I actually got a non-diner item: a Pear & Fig Formaggio sandwich which was delicious though a little on the small side. Of course the stellar fries made up for that. Service was fast and super friendly; didn't rush us. It was pretty crowded on a Saturday night around 7:30pm, but we didn't have to wait. read more

Ok Don't go in here hungry! You will order food from the menu and they will bring you enough to feed a family. My wife and I went there during a trip for business and we thought we were hungry until they brought out the food. OMG! We had enough to eat for breakfast that day and the next from the leftovers we brought back tio the hotel Service was excellent and food was delicious. Everything I remember about eating in a LI diner. read more

The food was delicious, and the portions are very generous. We had to take half of our food home with us. Super friendly service. Our server was Lorraine. Super sweet person. Definitely recommend. Glad they're back! read more

We were excited to go to the newly reopened Peter Pan diner as we have been hearing great things. It was very nicely renovated which is why I would give them an extra star but other than that it was terrible. My wife was told last minute they were out of cheese for her burger so she just quickly chose something else. I got a club sandwich with the most dry & fatty turkey I have ever had and the lettuce was literally so bad it was turned to mush and they didn't even give us pickles or coleslaw which everyone around us had. I can't believe I was even served that & the waitress was nowhere to be found and we were starving so I just picked everything off my sandwich and had a $20 bacon sandwich with some fries. Needless to say I will not being going back here. Poor service and even worse food. Disappointed is an understatement. read more

Glad to see they're back. Been going there for years and was looking forward to their reopening. My daughter and I went there on opening day for breakfast. The inside looks beautifully done. The service was a bit slow which we understood since it was opening day. When the food arrived, we were very disappointed they changed their home fries. They had the best home fries of any place. The food itself was just ok. The prices definitely went up but nowadays everything is more expensive. They added some new items to their menu. We'll definitely go back for lunch just not breakfast unless they bring back the original home fries. read more

Let me begin by saying we saw that it was open, and decided to revisit, but alas this will be the final. Three meals, wait let me rephrase that, three basic meals, grilled chicken salad should not be 20 dollars, a basic burger and fries, 18 dollars and a turkey club, 18 dollars. Three people eating, and mind you, NO extras, just three basic meals and a soda for my wife was 89 dollars. Also the music is SO loud in the place that we couldnt even chat. Food was good, nothing special, good local fare, the prices were very high. Thanks and good luck with the new place. Also get a waitress that can speak and understand English, ours was very hard to understand, and brought things to us that we didnt order......chicken sandwich isnt chicken soup! read more

For a brand new restaurant have to say not impressed. 10 minute wait with over a dozen open tables . Food was good and server was excellent . Place was kinda of dirty for a new place. Floors and tables left untidy . read more

My daughter and I had been wanting to this dinner since we moved out to LI. The day we were planning to go we couldn't be there had been a huge fire. So we have been waiting patiently for them to reopen. Today was finally the day we were waiting for. We were seated immediately but after 15 minutes I had to get up and find out who was our waitress because we were tired of waiting. Finally they found sent us a very nice server to attend us. She very nice and pleasant. However, it didn't make up for the bland and tasteless food we had. The sliders were dry snd the bread was brunt, the fries were gross and undercooked. My kid's mozzarella sticks however were tasty. I don't know if I will give this place another try read more

Food is very good, but the service has been terrible! I have been there twice in the last 3 weeks and the first time we waited 40 minutes before getting our food! First had to get someone's attention to take our order. People after us got their food before us. I had to ask the waitress where is our food? The second time again no one came to take our order. The hostess saw us and took our order. Never received a check so went up to the register to tell them what we got and she had to fine the order by table, took another 20 minutes for that. I feel terrible making these comments but hopefully they can improve for everyone's sake!! The dinner itself is very nice inside since they renovated. read more

I had dinner there with a friend.Both our panninis were SO dry! It was as if they took some bread and made grill marks on it .The fries were mushy! Prices are ridiculous! read more

So happy they are back. Great Cheeseburger. The seating arrangement however to the south (to the left when you walk in) is horrendous. Sitting on the exterior you feel like you are being watched and can hear the conversation of the table across the aisle who is literally watching you eat. Bizarre design. read more

My friends and I went to Peter Pan Diner earlier today. We (along with everyone else) was told the wait would be 20 minutes. We waited for 45 minutes. As for the food - the bacon was just okay, and the food was pricy for what we got. read more

Unfortunately, Peter Pan diner is now much too expensive. I'm a long time customer & was so very happy to return yesterday after it's closing due to fire. The renovations are lovely. The food is as good as ever, but now costs way too much for my return. Everything has increased by $10 to $15/item. A greek salad with grilled chicken costs $28 + tax with terrible, sweet pink dressing! Also, the waitress was nice, selling the food, but couldn't get a take out order correctly completed. The total bill came to $58 with tip for a salad & a sandwich. That's a tank of gas! Its sad, for 25 years, I really, really liked this diner. read more

We were really excited to support the reopening of Peter Pan. Unfortunately, it was the worst food I've ever had at a diner. French onion soup was almost clear, onions were sliced huge and not caramelized and it was served on n a bowl (not a crock) with what appeared to be microwaved cheese. It didn't get much better from there. $19.99 for a patty melt which was overly greasy and soggy undercooked fries. The menu is much more limited than before the closure so everything on it should be good. Need to find a new chef. read more

Was so excited they opened back up, was a lot less excited when I got home and opened my order only to find they gave me a panini made on white bread it's disgusting and soggy. I normally wouldn't put up a post up like this without calling them but there have no phone and they seem to want it that way. read more

You won't find tinkerbell or Captain hook dining here, but you will find a great cup of coffee and food. The service was Awesome as our server Lauren was outstanding! We had the Peter pan Panini which has grilled chicken, spinach, roasted peppers and mozzarella cheese. We also ordered the turkey club which had thin slices of turkey, pesto, lettuce with a honey mustard dipping sauce. They knocked both sandwiches out of the park. The curly fries and matzoh ball soup were delicious as well. The parking lot is small so be careful where you park. I always get nervous as spaces are tight and the cars are huge. Overall, you will love this little diner. The dessert window in the front showcases some real decadent cakes as well. read more

I'm not a usual customer of this diner, even before it re-opened! I would like to add what I observed when I walked into the new diner. I was unimpressed with the fact that two other guys walked right in front of my family, and said that they were first! The diner should write names down to reserve a table even if you just walked in the diner! This policy needs to change here if you want valuable customers like me to stay! Secondly, the food was just not hot enough for the price that I paid! We asked for many things a head of time(such as coleslaw/pickles), and did not receive it! The burgers were cold, and the toppings(such as gravy) were not hot at all! The cook forgot to add tomatoes on my sandwich! She brought it much later, but only after I asked! They also need to provide a bread basket for all hot open sandwiches! This should be standard in any diner! We did not receive a pasta, or appetizer in the very beginning before eating the main course! The menu writing is way too small, and the lighting is not bright enough to read what you want to order! I want to request that they bring back the big menus that they used to have! The ambiance is nice, but seems much smaller than usual! The tables should be re-thought, and moved in a different way(to provide comfort, and privacy for their customers. My family member did not receive onion rings for her deluxe burger! The food needs much more flavor too, and burgers should be juicy(not dry)! I left unsatisfied, and had a much better experience at my local fast food joint! My ratings: Food: C- Service: B Ambiance: B read more
