Great old fashion diner. Food was excellent and the server very friendly. We found this gem driving back up the coast and it didn’t dissapoint. I ordered a traditional breakfast with bacon eggs and toast. Everything was yummy
The decor in this place is fun and has an overall good feel to it.
I starred this place for my next road trip down the coast and so should YOU

I look for smaller family owned restaurants to review. The feedback is so very important. Please folks its better to calmly tell them than say nothing.
As for Papa’s Diner. I ordered tea and an omlette (sausage and cheese). Dry English muffin with jam.
The tea was barely hot enough to brew the bag. When I told the very nice wait person she added hotter water to it. Not much of an improvement. I would have replaced to entire pot of water.
The omlette was hot but not much else. The eggs were bland and over cooked.
I didn’t finish the hash browns. They were not done and on one end actually cold.
Papa’s Diner isn’t cheap or fast. They should have been good.

This is probably the best diner I’ve been to. They serve fresh homemade cinnamon rolls that are incredible. We ordered the said cinnemon roll, patty melt and a breaded chicken sandwich (lunch special) both were absolutely wonderful. Service was quick and efficient. Will definitely be coming back here.

We decided to support this restaurant in its first couple days. Thank you for bringing a diner back to Rochester! Location: It has a nice clean, homey, welcoming feel. Staffing and service: We knew going in they are still trying to staff up so we weren’t surprised about it taking a bit longer than you would expect. The server was pleasant but had a lot of tables! Even then still made time to make sure she offered to fill the coffee cups. This gained points with my spouse. 🙂 Menu options: We went mid morning and was able to get breakfast and lunch and that was nice. Food: There were a couple little misses for us but nothing that would prevent us from coming back. 🙂 I would have preferred a little more color on my hashbrowns and toast selection. The bacon and mushrooms in the omelet were delicious. I would have loved to see the cheddar cheese in it to give it the perfect bite.. The hashbrowns and steak provided the opportunity to adjust the seasoning to your specific taste. Did I mention they have real avocados? 🙂 We ordered a Super Bird to go and it looks delish.

If you’re looking for that small town restaurant that makes you feel like you’re family when you walk in, then Papa’s is it. Brandy and her crew are awesome. Great service, fantastic food and the atmosphere to go along with it.

. Service was terrible as the main waitress was so concerned over the “locals” table. I was sitting next to them and she just went by me with her coffee pot and never refilled my cup. I had to ask the busser for more coffee and water. Sorry I wasn’t local, probably gotten better service. What happened to the sweet new girl, she was really friendly..

Thank you for bringing back a diner to Rochester! Friendly and fairly priced but, the hash browns have got to be crispier and not so greasy turn up the heat on those! The eggs were good and the pancakes were good but, the french toast also needed a crisp. You can see from my pics. We will be back for sure!

The atmosphere is very down-home, country cute, retro cool. Service was slow, but it’s because they’re short staffed with a lot of responsibilities. I ordered hot tea, which they served with a cute tea pot, a mug, and a selection of tea. I ordered the “Timeless Breakfast” which was hot and delicious, I highly recommend it. Overall, very nice and affordable.

The waitress was more worried about what I was doing and worried about who I was watching from her window. Stopped pouring coffee at 3 cups. Had hamburger and fries. Hamburger was about 4 bites, Fries would fit into a small Dixie cup (10) fries. Was more concerned about calling landlord on different things….
