Stopped in here by chance and so glad I did. The waterfront views can’t be beat, the prices are good, and the staff made great recommendations about the menu. Lovely local vibe, very clean. Most importantly, the food was prepared using fresh local ingredients and the care in preparation came through in every bite. I look forward to being a customer again and might even drive out of my way just to return!

One of the best diner experiences! This is a small, family owned business and the atmosphere matches it! The service is great, food is delicious, and the views of the bay don’t hurt! My kid even got to pick between a paw patrol or Mickey Mouse plate! & then to top off the experience, they have a toy chest for kids to pick a prize! Such a great experience, every time!

Absolutely love the Hope Diner! We visit Bristol once in a while from Providence and this is our favorite spot hands down. Wonderful service, friendly atmosphere, and the food is great quality and cost. We recommend the chicken liver and eggs, the corned beef hash, and the grilled muffins.

This was, without question, the worst diner experience I’ve ever had. From the moment we walked in, the atmosphere was chaotic and uncomfortable. There was no sign indicating that guests needed to wait to be seated, so we sat at an open table — only to be immediately scolded by a staff member in a rude and condescending tone.

The service throughout the visit was awful. The staff were openly yelling at each other across the diner, creating a tense and unpleasant environment. When we tried asking simple questions about the menu, the responses we received were sarcastic and dismissive. It felt as though customers were an inconvenience rather than guests.

The food was equally terrible. The toast wasn’t toasted, the corned beef hash was undercooked, greasy, and had a texture and appearance disturbingly similar to cat food. The coffee was bitter and unpleasant, and even the water had an odd, distinct taste. At one point, we were asked whether we wanted our pork chop cooked or “pink,” which is deeply concerning and potentially a health code issue.

Beyond the food and service, the diner itself was in poor condition. The staff appeared unkempt, and the entire facility felt dirty and poorly maintained — from sticky tables to visible grime on the floors. It’s clear that cleanliness and professionalism are not priorities here.

I left not only disappointed but honestly concerned about the food safety practices in place. I cannot understand how this establishment has nearly a five-star rating on Google, because my experience was the complete opposite of what those reviews suggest.

I would strongly discourage anyone from dining here. There are plenty of other local diners in Rhode Island that treat their customers with respect and take pride in their food — unfortunately, Hope Diner is not one of them.

Good burger, fries flavorless standard frozen. Unique atmosphere, tight space, counter with barstools, crooked floor, friendly people, but fair prices on decent food. Seems like a place with regular repeat customers, not a tourist stop

What a fun place! My wife had the Portuguese Sweet Bread French Toast and I had the Chourico Sausage Sandwich with sauce and onions, and both were delicious. This is the sort of place where you can really get the local flavor. I swear the staff knew the names and regular orders for everyone. The staff are a hoot, and there may or may not be a parrot in the back that talks back and sings songs. If you are going to the Audubon Nature Center or Colt State Park, you owe it to yourself to get breakfast or lunch at the Hope Diner.

All American mixed with a New England flare. Nothing fancy, but great food and a fun experience. Don’t visit without a stop to this Bayview favorite in Bristol

Great little spot I’ve never noticed & after an open house visit to Bristol we stopped for breakfast. Their omelets are good, the breakfast potatoes needed salt and after adding that I liked them much better. Their chourico hash was so good that we ordered a second side plate. Try it sometime.
