    Dining room
    Kristina W.

    A locally owned diner-style venue that has occupied this space for 19+ years. Interior with simple country diner decor, very cozy. Staff are super friendly & PRICES ARE REASONABLE, with so many items under $10!! You don't find too many places with these prices anymore! Omelets come with hashbrown& a voice of toast or biscuit + gravy. The 3-egg omelet with 3 filings costs $9.59! The "Pitt stop" comes with bacon, eggs, hash brown, & 2 medium-sized pancakes for $8.99. The eggs were perfectly cooked, the hash browns could be crispier. The omelets were generously stuffed with your choice of 3 fillings plus melted cheese & salsa on the side. We will definitely go back!

    The Pitt Stop - $7.99 - 2 eggs, hash browns or bacon, sausage or ham, 2 pancakes plus salsa 0.50

    Closing in on 20 years old, The Pitt Stop has terrific service, a quality breakfast and lunch menu and fresh pie daily. The racing memorabilia is pretty cool; but really it's all about the diner vibe and those daily specials. We had been to a specialty animal clinic to drop off our sweet kitty for dental surgery and were in need of solace and breakfast. We were also in west Arlington, not our usual stomping grounds. There were maybe some sexier sleeker breakfast choices listed in Yelp; but The Pitt Stop in Kennedale, down the road, spoke to us. I had been to the races there years ago; but the neighborhoods had changed! Not the Pitt Stop though, I'm guessing. The building looks to be from the 40's, so hard to say. We were greeted and seated and handed a menu right away. I ordered a traditional breakfast with buttermilk pancakes and sausage patties. I also asked for a side of spicy homemade salsa for my crispy hashbrowns and over easy eggs. It's called The Pitt Stop and it's $7.99. My husband was excited about the Build your Own breakfast tacos. He chose chorizo, egg, cheese and jalapeño in flour tortillas served with salsa on the side. $1.99 each. We chatted, drinking our coffee, checking out the racing memorabilia and the other diners who were doing the same thing! Some were there early, waiting for the daily lunch special - the goulash! Our breakfast came out steaming hot and everything was delicious. My pancakes were giant, fluffy and tender. The eggs were perfect and that homemade salsa - yes, please! My husband's tacos all but disappeared! Everything was clean, all surfaces and areas where food was served. There was a refrigerator ready with the day's pie. Everyone was lovely and helpful. On another note, I fractured my trochanter last year and had a hip replacement. It's taken me a year to recover and made me acutely aware of how some restaurant bathrooms just aren't up to snuff for ADA standards. I thinks it's fair to say that the bathrooms here need updating; but I suspect they have an exemption. Occasionally you run across an old restaurant or old building which has not been brought up to ADA standards, or even close. The Pitt Stop restrooms for someone who uses a W/C, walker or even a cane will be problematic getting into, using the toilet and getting out of without assistance. They are basically a small closet. The bars inside would be only of help to someone with strength and the toilet is extremely low. Just FYI. We will be back though another day for lunch and pie when we come back to the clinic soon. The food is fantastic!

    Love this place and can't wait to go again. Who doesn't love really great homemade pies and a great breakfast to boot. Pie for breakfast? YES. My friend and I shared a piece of lemon custard pie with homemade graham cracker crust. So yummy

    Wow! What a wonderful find! We literally moved to the area three days ago. While driving around, we saw this little pitstop on the corner of the road near our house. We stopped by around 12:30 on Thursday and it was popping and buzzing! I love the way we were greeted - "Hiwdy! How 'bout that table over there?!" Lots of friendly locals and old timers. It felt . . . Cozy. Shelly greeted and served us amidst a busy dining room! Classic waitressing at its best . . . 1 Million things all at once! Our burgers were great - but - THOSE ONION RINGS!!! my favorite part of the visit. We got a German chocolate pecan pie to go. Can't wait to try it! We most definitely will be back!!

    We have been to the Pitt Stop many times before and we LOVE it. Brittany was our server this time. She was amazing, super attentive and so nice/fun. The Pitt Stop is a typical small town diner with your local "chit-chat" and rural buzz. We love the vibe. It's nice to go to a smaller place with warm people and great service. This time we had the Chicken Fried Steak and Eggs and The Pitt Stop Breakfast. All was very good, as usual. Lots of coffee and creamer!! Just the way we like it! Plus, the prices are awesome!!! Everyone needs to go by the Pitt Stop at least once. You will be hooked. We have also been at lunch. It is SO good and they have great ranch dressing. That's always a plus for me. Side note: Wanted to let everyone know they open at 7:30am and I didn't see a picture of the menu on Yelp, so I am posting one now.

    Got to bring my in-laws who's visiting from California for brunch and they loved it! My father in-laws loves the nostalgic decor within the dining room. The food and service is always top notch and very hearty! I noticed our server even cut this one lady's meal for her because she's was j able to do it for herself. The stories you can over hear from the "old heads" table is quite entertaining and you'll find a few of them get together at this center table every weekend. Lots of history here!

    This place is so good! You are paying a little more for your latte, and you have to wait in a line,…read morebut this is most worth it spot! Perfect for a matcha lover and a sweet tooth. The shop itself is very adorable and I appreciate the authenticity to the owner. She has a little merch area that is very well placed. If you're going to wait in a long line for La La Land and pay a high price anyway... I would highly recommend you consider this locally owned shop. 100/10

    Mazapan (peanut and powder sugar) Matcha Latte: mazapan oat milk, matcha, mazapan foam, mazapan…read morebits. I've never had mazapan, but I liked the sweetness of the peanuts and powder sugar in the drink. The matcha had grassy notes, which I liked. It tasted like a sweet fresh peanut milk drink but not necessarily like peanut butter milk. You can get a regular or large sized drink. Dulce de leche concha was pretty and tasty. It seemed more milk bread-like since it was soft and fluffy. It reminded me of melon pan because the crust was soft and crumbly. There's a small amount of dulce de leche in the middle, which is okay since the top is very sweet and the dulce de leche is rich. Shio pan with cream cheese and everything bagel: similar to a Chinese baked bread (cut almost all the way) filled with whipped cream cheese. The bottom has a slight crust but not hard like a Korean salt bread, and it's topped with everything bagel seasoning (not too salty). Dubai choco strawberry cookie: moist and almost fudgy because of chocolate chunks, topped with fresh strawberry slices. There's a small center of pistachio cream but the usual crispy noodles were already broken and mixed in, so it's less satisfying to me. The chocolate cookie part was like a rich brownie. It stayed soft even refrigerated. The marranito (pig-shaped sweet cookie) was thick and broke like a soft cookie. It's like a gingerbread cookie with less spices. Even refrigerated, the cookie was pretty soft. I'm usually not too fond of this type of flavor, but I liked this version. Ham and cheese bun: fluffy baked Asian bread with thin slice of ham and cheese. Bacon egg and cheese milk bread resembles a thick Chinese bread bun with a bacon-wrapped thick tamagoyaki inside. The egg part looked like it was overcooked. Coffee bun is a soft and high plain bun covered with a thick layer of slightly bitter coffee powder. The bread items started getting drier after getting cut and refrigerated but softened once they were microwaved. There are clean trays and tongs for the baked goods. The line moves along the edges. The bakery had (2) baskets of large umbrellas since it was a long and slow line and blazing hot. The outside line takes up most of the small parking lot. There is some street parking along the 2-way road. I think the bakery was busier than normal due to it being the day after a BTS concert and social media. It took about 50 minutes to get inside, 20 minutes to get through the line, then 15 minutes to receive drinks. There are a few tables along the right side of the inside bakery and a few small tables outside. Even though it was very busy, the staff projected a friendly and competent image. There're clay heart-shaped plates to eat on and plastic forks for splitting pastries. The graphics on the murals, merch (shirts and aprons), big boxes, and cups were cute. The image on the plastic cups are easily scratched off.
