Tasty food and incredible service. Overall, I'd give the food a 4, but the service puts my rating at a 5. Large portion diner food in a diner setting -- the food was everything you'd expect, not gourmet but still well made and tasty. Our server, Irma, was an absolute gem! She was super sweet, helpful with menu recommendations and no pressure. We loved her! We also stayed a long time just chatting and the staff did not pressure us AT ALL to leave -- and even kept refilling our coffee! Such a hospitable staff that has a family vibe. Solid spot for a pleasant diner experience! read more

On a recent trip to the Hudson Valley, stopped by for breakfast w best friend, Pots & Pans, AKA Stumbleweed. Full disclosure, I am a huge Yankee fan, having grown up just north of the stadium (and P&P is a closet Yankee fan), so the name helped. Free parking on Main St, and a generous lot in the back. We both opted for spinach and goat cheese omelets (3 eggs), w home fries, rye toast, and coffee. We both agreed that the omelets were delish, perfectly cooked. HFs were well-spiced; coffee bottomless. Service was excellent. Definitely would return if in the area. 4 Yankee-lover stars read more

Let's start by saying ; I don't particularly like dinners!! Under duress I found myself sitting at the Yankee Clipper Diner in Beacon. The service was fantastic , with our smiling, profesional waiter Jarred. The restaurant is really the old old fashion dinner. The food served promptly, was pipping hot, delicious and copious. They come around for coffee refill or water very often. I had the Pastrami Ruben, quite the feast. My husband had the Patty melt, served rare as asked. Both came with an enormous amount of fries. The place is clean, spacious and bright. A positive experience!!! read more

Decent American diner food. Staff was helpful and friendly. Prices were quite good (3 entrees were under $60 after tax and tip). We ordered the California burger, Spinach Potato wrap and Creamy potato soup. Both the burger and wrap were fine but the soup was a bit too salty for our taste. Otherwise, it was a positive dining experience. read more

I was in the neighborhood and wanted some breakfast so I stopped by Yankee Clipper Diner. It looked like a cool spot to eat at. I ordered some pancakes, eggs and toast.. The pancakes were definitely delicious. I'd get them again. The scrambled eggs were.. meh.. more like a plain omelet.. Flat.. A bit burnt too. I personally think scrambled eggs should be fluffy and not burnt. Anyway, the pancakes tasted great along with the maple syrup which makes a huge difference! If the eggs were done right I'd give them a 5 rating. The service was excellent! Waiter was very accommodating and attentive. Great attitude. Always a plus. As far as ambiance, it's a nice, clean, classic/vintage looking Diner, people and families enjoying their meals while conversing. No loud music. Just a very nice vibe. In the end, if you're looking for a nice diner to grab a bite this is a great choice! Have a good one yall! -Ray read more

Yankee Clipper Diner - Pancakes and scrambled eggs - American Near Me - Beacon, New York

A Beacon institution, Yankee Clipper is a classic NY diner, complete with laminate tables, lots of chrome, and a diminutive liquor selection behind the register. I've been dining here for years, frequently for weekend breakfast with my kids, and can't say enough about the staff and service. The food is solid diner fare, and breakfast is a standout. They've kept up with the times, and offer a variety of tasty wraps and paninis. An overall solid choice with something for everyone. read more

A busy Friday evening but seated right away with a party of 6. The food was delicious as always. Our waiter was great & very attentive. You are always greeted soon as you walk in. Nice size portions & reasonable prices! Found parking right in front but there is a parking lot behind as well. Located right on Main st to enjoy a walk before or after visiting this wonderful restaurant! read more

We walked Main St. Beacon and felt like ice cream. There's a big difference between an ice cream chain and a good diner, besides the glassware and silverware they use. We were near the diner, and thought we'd try it out. This place is a classic diner. We were given menus, but didn't notice any deserts or ice cream. We asked our waiter, Jarred, if there was a dessert menu? In a moment he brought ones over. She had the classic ice cream sundae, like the one's they served in Jahn's near Fordham Road in the Bronx. Ah, the memories it brought back. There's a typical menu and cocktails. The trendy places along Main St. come and go. This place will live on! read more

Enjoyed breakfast this morning at the Yankee Clipper. Service was excellent. Table ordered a short stack of blueberry pancakes, short stack of french toast, side of sausage links and coffee. All was hot right out of the kitchen and excellent. Never had to ask for a coffee refill, it was constantly filled. Visit on a Sunday, and walk a few blocks to the open Farmers Market. read more

Hunger called, and we unfortunately ended up here. We were in Beacon to meet up with some friends for afternoon drinks, and the Yankee Clipper was the closest spot to where we were, so in we went. Pretty average diner interior, so we were digging the vibes, but the food was not good. The Greek salad (aren't these usually supposed to be the sine qua nons of all diners everywhere??) was terrible. for almost $20, it had TWO grape leaves with rice and maybe a few cucumbers. The rest was just leaves served with a watered down dressing--such as disappointment. What was most unbelievable is that it had kalamata olives WITH pits inside, of which there was no warning about, so somebody could have cracked tooth. A lawsuit waiting to happen! The gyro plate wasn't much better since the wrap had practically no sauce and was dry as hell. Fries were decent we guess, so there's that. The only reason we're not giving this place two stars is because our server was friendly enough, but we really would not recommend going here. We didn't have the time or energy to dig around to find a better restaurant, but surely there must be plenty in Beacon. 2.5 stars, rounding up. read more

Nice restaurant & service was okay. Food was okay for a diner ... nothing of our meals stood out. .

Straight up, I love a good old diner. Yankee clipper is one of the oldest standing restaurants in Beacon. We were craving classic Americana. Also not too surprisingly, many diners are Greek owned, as is this one, and there is a Greek section on the menu. Decided to stick with classics got Salisbury steak with mashed potatoes and gravy. Also got the burger. Both dishes came with choice of salad or soup . We got the salad to start. Service was friendly and efficient. Ambiance is very much old school Formica counters and pleather booths etc. To the food, felt like both the burger and the Salisbury were made from the same mix. I asked for the burger on the rare side. Was sort of hard to tell by color because it was surprisingly not pink or reddish but the texture was definitely on the softer side as a more rare burger should be. The Salisbury looked better than it tasted . It is essentially a well done hamburger with gravy on top. The burger meat was not seasoned. Neither was my burger patty. The texture of the burger was good and the fries were brown and not overcooked . For roughly $25 each all in , it's not a bad price but there are so many places to choose from nearby , I would look for other burger joints if that's what you're after. 3 stars for food and 4 for nostalgia. read more

How SAD... I find the Yankee Clipper Diner in Beacon NY ... The service has changed.... ("NOT FOR THE BETTER") The service was ("ATROCIOUS") maybe because I arrived after 7:30 pm. The waitress by the name Lisa? She was very ("ANNOYED") Lisa was asked to take my order. From the start she was very short with me. I tried too overlook the ("POOR Attitude Lisa displayed...") The food was ("POORLY SERVED") FOOD WAS ("UNAPPETIZING") DID NOT TASTE GOOD. I had paid in advance. I have pictures... I spoke to the owner or manager ("HE COULDN'T CARE LESS ") HIS ATTITUDE WAS POOR AS WELL. One can plainly understand why the waitress acts this way. The influence, the attitudes, and actions of restaurant server can depend on management. Management must not care due to the volume of people in and out. This does not mean that it's quality or good. I don't CARE if the diner receives five stars.... NOT GOOD read more

This diner is so adorable, I had to stop in! It's very retro looking and the menu was expensive, just as I had hoped for. I was in the mood for a burger so I ordered a Swiss patty melt with the Caesar salad on the side and my friend ordered a cheeseburger with a side salad. The burgers were quite delicious with a charcoal boil taste! My patty melt was perfect and nicely toasted rye bread that was grilled in butter, so delicious! Both of us were so happy we had stopped in! Our waitress was so adorable, really friendly and very patient with our questions. I love everything about this meal! I will definitely be back! I love a good diner and this is it! read more

We were walking thru Beacon. I love their Main Street. Looking at the different restaurants. Galleries. It had a bohemian feel We want ice cream. So we came to this diner for it. Looking at the menu. We didn't see anything from ice cream or milkshakes. We asked and our server Jarret informed us if a separate desert menu. I am ordering the sundae. Please no walnuts. He brought the sundae with extra cherries. and extra whipped cream it was delicious read more

This was my second trip to this classic style diner, where breakfast is served all day. I ordered the Copenhagen eggs Benedict, cornbeef hash on an English muffin topped with a poached egg and topped with hollandaise sauce. I appreciate the server asking would I like the hash crispy or not. Same question to my wife about her bacon. Most restaurants never ask how you want your corn, beef, hash, or bacon. The breakfast was delicious. I'll be making a few more trips to this eclectic diner. read more

I love the Yankee Clipper. And I moved up to the area about three years ago from New Jersey, which has the most diners out of any state in the US. So I know my diners! I go to the Yankee Clipper by myself a lot, often with a book, as a treat to just take a leisurely meal and have some peace. I've also taken friends and family members from out of town. I've also brought friends and small groups. Everyone's been happy. Their burgers are great -- I've had beef, turkey and veggie, and enjoyed them all. I think one reviewer said they didn't enjoy their fries; it must've been an off day, because their fries are amazing (just ask my gall bladder!). That includes their sweet potato fries, which usually comes with a side of honey mustard. Their salads are fresh and delicious; their Cobb Salad can feed at least two people or be taken home as an extra meal. Every server I've interacted with since I moved up here has been absolutely lovely. They check in, but don't rush; refills of water, coffee, soda, tea, whatever you're drinking, appear just when you need them. There can be a line on the weekends, especially around brunch/lunch time. Trust me, it's worth the wait! read more

I really loved being here. I thought it was so classical americana. No loud music which is great. The waiter was nice and the food suprised me, it was really great and the portion was massive. Also a great price. Only $10 for all this. Definitely would come back. read more

Great place to eat!! Family owned, owner greets you at the door.

I expressed my delight with the soup and they actually gave me some to take home!! Definitely make this a stop when you're in the Beacon/Fishkill area. read more

The diner was established in 1946 and it's a Beacon favorite. It has classic recipes taking it back to the good old days. It's a good size diner with a good amount of inside seating. We were able to get a table right away on a Monday afternoon and I'm sure this place is slammed on the weekends. I got the chicken parmigiana meatball special on top of spaghetti with a chicken noodle soup to start off with. You can't never have enough noodles. The chicken noodle soup was comforting. The pasta dish had the right amount of flavor and I couldn't even finish half of it. The chicken and meatball combination went well together. Our waitress was down to earth and did a great job with taking our order. Everything came out quickly and the staff cleaned off the table when needed as well as refilling our drinks. I would come back if I visit the area again. read more

Fantastic place and the home of my fav breakfast sandwich. YES! The portobello spinach wrap there is THAT good. Their gluten free wraps are incredible and really compliment everything. I get it with feta cheese instead of mozz and a lil hot sauce mixed in....yum! I live three hours away and crave that wrap often. Luckily I'm in Beacon a few times a year and no matter what time of day it is, the Yankee Clipper Diner is my first stop. My order never changes and the wrap never fails. Their home fries are rather good too...nice and crispy, not too greasy. The Yankee clipper is one of the best places in Beacon and many of the locals are the ones who have told me that. read more

What a fantastic diner. They do everything well, every time. It's a community staple for a reason. Get the waffle fries with your burger.

Ugh. Admittedly I'm not someone who loves diners, but I have enough experience to know what makes for a good one. Lovely atmosphere, which is especially welcome on Main Street -- but you're almost certain to find better food in your own kitchen. Even the breakfast seemed to have stale ingredients and sloppy preparation. With restaurants, sometimes a good location is a curse. read more

Stopped by this place for breakfast and was impressed by the quality of the food. Although, there was a 30-minute waiting time, it was reasonable given the quality of the food and the fact that it's the only diner nearby. I didn't take photos but the food was delicious. I ordered the classic breakfast of eggs, bacon, home fries, and toast. My favorite was their home fries, they were cooked to perfection!

Popped out to this joint on a Monday morning with the CREW. I chose to get the breakfast burrito being my first time here I saw it as a safe choice with it also being listed as one of their favorites. I ATE EVERYTHING. I enjoyed this meal and it hit the "spot". If you're in the area it's a place to consider as I would not travel out of the way to indulge at this destination. Additionally, the service was excellent with sweetest and most attentive waitress. ( Note I'm not a big breakfast person and I rarely give 5) read more

Tasted good until I took a bite out of a plastic shard inside of my pasta dish. The waitstaff was pretty good and the food came in a timely manner. Portions are much bigger than NYC portions so if your eyes are bigger than your stomach (like me) I would order one dish per person instead of an extra dish to share! The place definitely looks like a diner and has common things you would find at your local diner. Pricing is very affordable if you are going for a quick bite after a hike. I would have rated this 4/5 if I hadn't found that plastic shard in my food. At first I thought it was a stem of a sundried tomato and I kept chewing it like no big deal but it pricked my tongue hard and so I took it out and found that it wasn't a dried stem... I'm guessing it was from a plastic thing that shattered somewhere in the kitchen. I was a bit concerned that I could have easily ingested that. read more
