Reviews for Melrose Diner in Philadelphia, PA
Classic greasy spoon. Just the right amount of service and everything is consistently delicious.
They always make one feel like family...or familia ??The food has always tasted great.
Love the warm welcome and friendly staff; just overall nice vibe and the food is excellent; cooked like back home ????
Stopped here for breakfast before hitting the town. I dig the modernized retro theme. The employees are super nice. We got... creamed chipped beef on toast, with grits( throw back to my childhood in the 90's) and my husband got a protein packed omlette,as well as coffee. (His was regular- still good, mine was a fancy iced coffee with whipped cream- better then starbucks at home????) check out these pics Read more
The coffee was a bit watered down, so black coffee drinkers beware. The French onion soup is amazing! The French toast was very... good, but the side of bacon wasn?t my style. The cream chip beef was a bit bland and the shredded hash browns were a bitundercooked if you are into that. Cash register lady grills your tip, which is uncomfortable, so even though they have parking,I will only be ordering take out from now on. Mostly for the soup only. Read more
Early morning breakfast diner. I don?t usually come to south Philly for ANYTHING. On this good Thursday I found myself waiting... for a friend to finish an appt so I came to this diner. Glad I did. Great French toast. Great coffee. Customer service wasgreat. Will be returning the next time I happen to be in South Philly. Read more
The girls and I were in Philly for the Valentine's Day weekend and this diner was literally across the street from where we were... staying at. My cousin & I came in one morning to have breakfast and everything was absolutely delicious. Waffle House may havesome competition on their hands. Anyway, I love diners outside of New York. It's just better. lol. Our waitress was super nice.The food was excellent. We will definitely be back. See photos attached! Read more
Went for breakfast. The food was not terrible. It was a preference thing on my part. I like fluffy scrambled eggs with no brown.... Their scrambled eggs are like cut up omelettes. I like sliced potato home fries and they serve shredded potatoes. If you likeyour breakfast that way then go there. Read more
