    What's not to love?! Within minutes of sitting down, staying true to its name, a horn blaring locomotive pulling a long line of rail cars passed by the restaurant. A very friendly waitress immediately greeted us in this cozy little sit down diner. Breakfast was the meal, so should be good. And it was. Egg and cheese melt on rye. All offerings were fantastic! Crowd seems very local and very happy to be there. Really liked this place!

    This was delicious!

    What a treasure! Great breakfast, had a western omelet, 3 fold, perfect fold. Pancake on the side was light and fluffy. Deep fried hone fries, amazing. Staff was pleasant and happy to serve! Which is more then I can say for the bat bunnies the night before....oh wait, what?

    Avocado breakfast melt, fried potatoes, and a fresh fruit cup.

    This place is so cute and welcoming! The food is excellent, the employees are friendly, and I love the location! It sits right by the train tracks. We had one train go by when we were there and it was pretty cool. It's what makes this place unique. I can see why this place is such a hidden gem and it's honestly my new favorite place for breakfast. They also have lunch which I'm super excited to try.

    Amazing little diner, friendly staff, excellent food, good coffee, everything we ordered was wonderful. Clean and neat. Highly recommend this sweet nostalgic diner situated right next to an active railroad track.

    Love this place!!! Highly recommend giving this restaurant a try. You will come back again and again! Everyone very nice. Everyone from the waitresses to the cooks to the eaters greet you with a smile! I usually get an egg sandwich on rye and their rye bread is awesome! Here is a picture of our happy plates. I wanted to attach a picture of our food but it looked soooo good I dug right in!

    Delicious coffee

    The breakfast was just as good as any other resturant in the area. The place is small but the waitress was friendly. I'd go back.

    The food was amazing the service was awesome waiters are all always nice and also it is very cozy…read morein there.

    Last evening myself & wife went there for dinner! Everything…read morewas going good! Then the waiter became a very annoying. I understand what your job involves, but standing over customers & demanding them to order something so you can leave & get tip doesn't fly. The interior of restaurant was just ok, the bench's for booths in rear of restaurant were missing. Very gloomy atmosphere. The soup yankee bean was the best part of my whole meal. Which for the amount that was ordered should've been on point. Items ordered: Yankee bean soup, steamed carrots & fish n chips Wife got salad, buttered corn & fish n chips We also got potato skins & chicken tenders (appetizer) Wouldn't you guess it they would serve everything all together. I'm so glad that I didn't indulge myself & eat the fish, I am one of the few people allergic to Tilapia. As an ex Chef I know the basics for fish n chips is 95% of the time cod. (Nothing was stated on the menu) I ate the fries which were obviously fried together, already had the lovely feeling of throat swelling up. I let wife take care of things due to myself thinking it was just my stress from work (go outside for fresh air) Wife than calls me back into restaurant with fish in hand(and owner had not known what fish was used for this item on the menu) I was floored! How do you not know your menu from front to back. He later told us it was Tilapia & he still wanted compensation for us getting the fish. The establishment used to be on my ok list, this restaurant is now worse than Pizza Hut. No point in sharing photos it wasn't a pleasant experience. Kudos to the owner for being an out right Dick!

    A quaint American diner in the small city of Cleona, PA…read more It's got that 1960s charm and meals at extremely fair prices. Staff is extremely welcoming and outgoing with all the charm and kindness you'd expect of a small town. For breakfast I had the 2 egg, 2 bacon, rye toast and coffee special ($5.25) and a side of home fries ($3.25). The food was well seasoned, properly cooked, and delicious! Take time to stop in Schwalm's for hearty home meals! You won't be disappointed and you won't break the bank!

We arrived at about 11:30 am on a Sunday. We were seated immediately. The first question is whether we wanted a breakfast or dinner menu. We took both. They have a nice variety of foods available. I had the salmon croquettes with Harvard beets and green beans. I was instantly transported to my family's home for dinner. They were made just as I remembered. I really enjoyed my meal. Everyone else had breakfast. My son had the hunky fries. It looked amazing and he ate every scrap. Everyone enjoyed their food. The servers walked around with the coffee pot frequently, offering to fill your cup even if it wasn't their table- haven't see that service in years. We finished with 3 pieces of pie- cherry crumb, cherry cheesecake and peanut butter cream. Fantastic! Probably a good thing this place isn't closer - Is be there all the time.

Now, years later, my wife and I would pass by the new 81 diner and would always say we needed to try it. We'll, today was the day. We stopped in for lunch, and aside from a gentleman waiting for his to-go order, we were known as the customers. I guess not a lot of people eat at 3 in the afternoon. The atmosphere was very nice. The tables, chairs and booths all fit the diner nicely. My cheesesteak sub was very tasty. Their menu said no substitutions, but they let me withhold the lettuce, tomatoes and onions, which I'm not fond of, so I'm glad they let me do that. Along that note, my wife ordered the BLT sandwich, and gave me some of the bacon, which was really good! Our friend George ordered the pizza burger, which also looked good, and he seemed to enjoy it. Their fresh cut fries were fantastic as well. If I had anything to complain about, it would be that the music being piped in was too modern for a classic diner atmosphere and wasn't something we were expecting. Hopefully that's something they will eventually change. Maybe next time we will stay long enough to try some of their desserts, which looked pretty good too. We will definitely be back soon.
