Was recommended by a long time local. Pancakes as big as a platter. Can't go wrong with the Garbage plate (pictured). Small town American diner with about 12 tables and 12 stools at the counter. Open small cooktop on other side of counter so you can see and here what is going on all the time. Staff was just one waitress and one cook and they both were doing all jobs. Restaurant was only a third full so service was good, waitress gave recommendations and was friendly. Breakfast served till close. Cash only with ATM on site. Visited on a Wednesday mid morning. read more

For years we have driven by this place and wanted to try it. Local diner on the way to the airport. The food was not bad, if you can get past the filth. Dead flies stuck to the syrup container, food on the floors, cook does not wear gloves when handling food, table sticky and the lights above have so many flies in them. Service was slow and they served the locals before our table. It is good that you can see the food being made and each meal is made from scratch. read more

Small family restaurant with great food and service. We shared the garbage plate breakfast. Homefries were excellent as the base, add sausage, three eggs and sausage gravy. Excellent! Thank you Sue and Ray! read more

Best breakfast around. Warm, friendly service. I'd drive 100 miles to eat at Sweet Sue's.

The food was good. The service was good. The building was on the cold side. I guess my only real complaint was that a large chocolate milk comes in what amounts to a kiddie cup. For the price, I expected more or maybe a refill at that size. read more

Food was great and way to much of it! Price was low for 2 people! If you're going to order a pancake i suggest a small one or just 1 normal one! Nothing around there is small! Very friendly, from the workers to the regulars! read more

Sweet Sue's Country Diner - Small breakfast - Diners Near Me - Stanley, New York

The pancakes are HUGE and delicious! Small diner, very popular in the area. Would recommend Sweet Sue's any day!

I cannot believe our luck finding this place! The restaurant we had planned to visit in Geneva turned out to be closed for January and February with no website update. The pancakes alone are worth the visit to Sue's! The description I've seen on other reviews calling it "as big as a hubcap" are not exaggerating. This monster is delivered to you on a serving platter! I ordered a veggie omelette with cheddar, and it was also enormous. At least 4 eggs, well done as I asked, lots of yummy veggies. Full order of perfectly cooked bacon on the side and toast. With coffee our bill came to $21.00!!! Insanely low prices for the amount of food you get! Service was spot-on, even though the same people were cooking. Coffee was refilled several times. Chatted with friendly locals and had a great time during our visit. What a gem! read more

Just had the best breakfast I've had in years. The food is prepared from scratch and the cook takes her time on every single dish. The place is a diner feel but there's nothing diner about the food. Amazing! read more

Very disappointed, I had high hopes as the previous owners ran a tight ship! The place has fallen into disrepair, and seems unkept. I was willing to sit down so as not to pass judgement however they lost me with the dirty silverware and glassware. I couldn't stay to try the food because we left immediately at that point... read more

Sweet Sue's is a homey diner. There's plenty of stools at the counter for the real diner feel. The staff is friendly and efficient The omelettes are ample as , apparently the pancakes are also. Cute place for a quick bite. read more

Loved this diner. Rolled through on a cycling trip and decided to fuel up for a 40 mile ride that day. The pancakes were epic (local blueberry, yum!). A regular pancake is the size of a pizza (not kidding), the "small" fills a dinner plate. We had the fluffy pancakes, bacon (delish), hashbrowns (get a half unless you're starving), biscuits and gravy (a guilty pleasure and these were perfect). And of course coffee, which in classic great diner fashion never got below half-full. Friendly service and the great food you know you love. Very much worth the 5 mile drive out of town. read more

Sweet Sue's Country Diner - Pancakes for days, biscuits and gravy, plus bacon! - Diners Near Me - Stanley, New York

You might as well stay at home. And sit across the table from your teenager who has his nose in his phone. While having dinner. How hard is it to say good morning. Dirty and nasty. I think sweet sue doesn't run it anymore. Cause there is nothing sweet about it. Apparently all the reviews are right on the $. read more

The pancakes are bigger than your head and the homefries are the best I've ever had! We waited about 15 minutes on a table because the place was packed but the food was still quick and the experience very pleasant. You can tell that they put a piece of themselves into this place and its definitely something to be proud of. Everyone was friendly and it's nice and cozy inside. I would absolutely visit again. read more

Sweet Sue's Country Diner - Pancake, home fries, eggs, and coffee! - Diners Near Me - Stanley, New York

2nd time coming here. CASH ONLY BUT ATM INSIDE* The food is great quantities especially when it comes to the homefries. Even as a big guy Id only order 1/2 order or share a whole order with someone. This place is a blue collar, hard working mans diner. Older crowd, hunters etc. Nothing super impressive except the food. Grandma and mother would be proud. If you wanna get full on the cheap, come here. read more

Sweet Sue's Country Diner - 3 eggs, while order home fries, 4 pieces of bacon and raisin toast 5.90 - Diners Near Me - Stanley, New York

Been to this place several times since moving to the area. One time we were there we were talking hot sauces with the owners. The next time we went we brought our favorite and they tried ours and added to the others on the table. Love the omelettes and bacon. My niece enjoys the gigantic pancakes. Food is made to order so you get to relax enjoy your companion's conversation, drinks and relax. read more

Good for a change of pace. Cost wise is not bad at all. Expect to bring something home. Small diner. At max two cooks behind the counter and then some waitresses. Seat yourself. A whole order of home fries is overkill. Hubby and I split an order. The sausage, eggs, pancakes, French toast, steak ...whatever are cooked on the same grill. The foods are not really seasoned, so if you like flavoring you have salt n pepper and jelly or syrup. Use it or make the food yourself at home. read more

Best tasting pancake ever....all we get for the two of us is the regular hubcap size pancake and a side of sausage patties....consistent perfection. read more

Great food and service!!! Especially the pancakes. Fantastic coffee too. Waitress was very helpful and friendly.

I really like this place very simple and the portions are great. I come back every month.

The very good and huge pancake wrranted the 4 star. It was very good. Brought my own real maple syrup. Eggs and bacon also on the mark. Coffee and toast.... Well deserved 3 stars at best..... Service friendly. The home fries were real and plentiful. A good breakfast stop. I'll be back. read more

Sweet Sue's Country Diner - Diners Near Me - Stanley, New York

Great food and service! We'll be back! Clean but not fancy and very "homey" feel. Highly recommend Sweet Sues!

Easily the biggest pancake I have encountered. But more surprising than the size was how fantastic it tasted! The home fries were great, the bacon cooked perfectly and crispy. Very good experience and very fair pricing. I will be going back often! read more

Maybe they were having a bad day... but the experience was pretty disappointing. It took almost an hour for the food to come even though the restaurant was mostly vacant, but this is most likely because they only had one waitress and one cook on hand. The food was not worth the wait - everything was flat and flavorless. I came here because of a recommendation from a good source, so I'm hoping it was just a bad day for the staff. But then again, this is a professional business - they shouldn't have days this bad. read more

You can always tell a good diner by the number of local cars in the parking lot. This I a great little diner! The home fries are the best! Friendly staff! read more

Have driven by so many times but finally decided to stop for lunch.Without a doubt the best pancake I've ever had in my life.Now need to go back to try the home fries and biscuits.The most unfancy place ever and is a step back in time.Just loved it !!! read more

I have been here twice for breakfast and once for lunch. The staff is very friendly and service is great. We loved all of our food. The only reason I didn't give this five stars is that they sorely need an update..paint the paneling lighter, new curtains, for example. read more

Sorry, Sue, but the service was dreadfully slow, the omelette was thrown on the grill and delivered flat the size of the plate and extremely dry and un-appetizing, and the coffee cup spent more time empty than full. read more

Great place. Staff was super friendly. Definitely recommend a stack of pancakes, best I've ever had

Stopped in for breakfast yesterday and was not disappointed. Had eggs and half order of home fries cooked crisply. These are the best I have ever had and I have been in a lot of diners. You must try these and the other items on the menu which look good too. Great value. Will definitely stop in again. read more

This diner has been around for years and it is the classic family diner that everyone loves and knows. Don't judge it by the looks judge it for the good food, inviting staff and friendly atmosphere. Truckers and families can both enjoy Sweet Sues. read more

2 or 3 eggs (your choice), home fries with a great crispy skin (¼, 1/2 or whole order)-- 1/2 order is more than enough. Gigantic pancakes. It doesn't matter if Sue or Liz is cooking, they serve the best breakfast in the county. read more

I look forward to my weekend breakfast date here with my husband. The food is simple and delicious. The staff is friendly and attentive . I never leave disappointed. read more
