Best breakfast around! Shane and Mike treat everyone like family. Burgers, Steak fries are homemade. Great Greek spinach pie! Cool setting!

Very good small yet friendly classic diner. My son and I stopped by a Sunday morning around 9am for breakfast and both pleasantly surprised of their overall taste and portion size. Parking lot is small but plenty street parking nearby.

I just had an amazing breakfast at the Mineola Diner. Omelette cooked exactly as I asked and delicious. I had the Farmers omelette, was rich with vegetables, sausage, ham and more. Vegetables were cooked perfectly soft with little crunch. Sorry didn't take a picture but looked too good to take time before digging in. Cozy old school dinner with friendly atmosphere

How have I lived in the neighborhood and have never stepped foot into this gem of a diner until St. Paddy's Day! Since then I've returned and now a staple on Sunday mornings. I love how the ambiance gives patrons a taste of the past and ran very nicely by owners, cooks, waitstaff, etc. Upon arrival you are greeted and seated as soon as possible. If there's a wait, it's worth it. There's about 3-4 parking spots via lot but a municipal parking via back and/or lots of street parking. I LOVE how the brunch specials are truly special and changed on a weekly basis. We've enjoyed thus far iced and hot coffees with almond milk (would suggest offering oat milk as well), blueberry protein pancakes with a side of turkey bacon, lox omelet, Greek omelet, and the Cinnamon Toast Crunch waffle. Ask the waitress or waiter for the home fries to be well done if you like them a little cruncher like we do. The service is always with a smile and he/she will constantly check-in. The food is prepared with urgency so you won't have to wait very long for your order. It's a very quaint place and I can't believe the first time I've ever stepped foot into this historic diner was in my 40s. Next time, I will definitely provide you all with mouth watering photos of our order(s). I decided to be in the moment instead of on the phone while I enjoyed each and every savoring bite. Don't be like me and continuously walk by, drive by, bike ride by this LITTLE GEM in Mineola without stepping foot into it until my 40s. I wish I would have found this place sooner! It took a Ridgewood, Queens foodie to get me step food inside and I haven't regretted it for a minute. A MUST TRY AND REVISIT!

They have one of the most unique recipes for corn beef hash. It's DELICIOUS This is also 1 of the best places in the area to get a Philly cheesesteak! The bread is delicious and certainly tastes as if it's freshly made! The service is usually swift. The food takes a little longer but that's to be expected bc it's usually crowded. The diner is very small and gets crowded quickly so if you plan to go on a weekend, come early or late, just not during peak hours! Gives classic diner vibes and I'll always come here to get my faves. Unique tastes with classic bites!

Solid classic LI diner. Sit at the bar. Bacon egg and cheese on everything bagel. Been here For 75 years.

This is our go-to diner! It's a little place, but food is on point! Staff is always friendly! We come with kids most of the time, and they are welcoming. Everything on the menu is delicious. We come here mostly for breakfast, but their lunches are great too! The kids love the pancakes and oatmeal. They have quite a few varieties of pancakes! I love their home fries. Perfectly seasoned, always hits the spot! The burgers are also delicious! I always order my fries extra crispy, and they are delicious!!!! Overall great casual spot that will hit the spot and you will not be disappointed!

Right in the spot Love this place Love the waitress the owners r amazing I love it Best quality food Always fresh ingredients Everything made by order Omg quality service and beautiful spot Can't ask for more

This is an update of an older review. This diner is in the official registry of "original diners" and pictured in most of the books on these places. The place is amazing and the owners Mike & Shane are wonderful owners and hosts. We there for breakfast and it was truly a memorable experience. I was there with my wife and two friends. You're greeted with a smile and welcome. It is small and seating is limited but there was plenty of space for us in the side room. The food here is just amazing this morning we had the Trough which are eggs with a little of everything else mixed in. There were a couple of omelettes that are always incredibly tasty and I had the banana-buttermilk pancakes (with scrambled eggs). These were amazing-tasty-fluffy. Essentially, delicious!!! I am a member of multiple organizations and we all use this diner for meetings. It is the perfect venue with the perfect menu and great service!
