Cute little diner from the highway. Food was good. Although I have an allergy, my husband asked if they can warm up my own toast for me since they didn’t have any gluten-free options they said no due to cross-contamination, and then they proceeded to put their toast on our food in a Togo box on top of the eggs. They never came back for refills or to ask if we needed anything.

This used to be one of my favorite 24/7 retro diners, but unfortunately, this visit didn’t live up to past experiences. I ordered scrambled eggs and was served what was clearly an omelette. When I pointed it out, the server responded, “That’s how we make our scrambled eggs.” After I mentioned I had been here before, she quickly changed her explanation to “each cook makes it in their own way.” (I have photos of my same order from last year on this review)
She did offer to fix it by cutting the omelette into pieces, which I declined.
To her credit, she wasn’t rude and even recognized us from our previous visit, which was a nice gesture. I also overheard other diners making similar comments about the scrambled eggs, so it wasn’t just a one-off issue. Disappointing overall, especially given how much I had enjoyed this place in the past.

We were watching the first episode of Severance and wanted to go to a diner that felt similar to Pip’s and google brought us here. Love the food and the staff. Will definitely make the trip out again just for the cherry pie!

Service was prompt and courteous. We both made alterations to the menu items we chose and it was not a problem. We got take home boxes and paid less than our previous meal at Denny’s which were from the 55+ and kids menus. Food was very good.

The view is amazing. The atmosphere is welcoming and very friendly. The food…is diner food. It fills you up but leaves much to be desired. Sometimes. Sometimes it’s absolutely amazing. I love this little spot though.

Came in after a long drive and seeing a sign that read Pennys Diner on the 5!
Today I ordered:
Waffle $4.25
Hash Browns $3.25
Water
The waffle was excellent perfected the flavor was great without or with syrup.
Butter smothered was best!
The top of the hash browns were crispy the underneath was not….
They also had no seasoning so I added some salt and pepper.
Overall the food was good.
The diner is extremely clean which is nice.
If you’re making the long haul on the 5 it’s worth the stop for a cool place to get a great bite to eat with friendly staff.

Loved the vibe of this restaurant, such a great atmosphere. The food wasn’t that great, but they did have a lot of options. The service was good once a new waitress took over. When we’re passing through next time maybe we’ll just stick to the shakes and desserts. Definitely worth the stop for scenery and vibes! ⛰️

We stopped for breakfast. It was clean inside the unique building. Bacon, eggs, and hashbrowns were cooked just right and delicious. Cinnamon roll was not as big as a plate, but it was still really good. Service was good, and there was a steady stream of customers as well as call in orders when we were there. Easy on and off the freeway.
