Me and my mom always frequent this place pretty much since 2012. Food quality has always been good. Service and waitstaff are always great and pleasant to work with. My mom loves their lunch menu options!! Especially the Reuben. Definitely a local recommendation if you're looking for a good meal
My 2nd time visiting this diner but this time I brought my kids & they had no complaints. Service was good. Food was good. Will be back for sure. Prices are great & food comes out fresh & hot
Breakfast was excellent. My food came fast, hot and delicious. My waitress was efficient and provided great service. Bobby showed me to my seat and had a very pleasant and welcoming demeanor. I highly recommend this restaurant and will be back again.
I go here regularly for breakfast and always have excellent food and great service at reasonable prices I recently tried the early bird specials spaghetti with meatball and it was delicious. It comes with a salad drink and dessert. I highly recommend. The bakery is also top-notch with fresh pies cookies and cakes with the baker on site.
Porche was so wonderful friendly and respectful, the gentlemen walking around making sure everything was okay was great. The restaurant is clean and the atmosphere feels amazing.Julio was also amazing, I kept hearing his name lol. Overall is a great place and from being my first time here best and believe we will be back.The food was amazing.
My family and I always have the best dining experiences at Country Club Diner. The food, service and ambiance exceeds expectations (burgers and onion rings are fantastic). Bobby, the owner, frequently checks in to make sure we're ok, especially with my elderly mother. Thanks to the amazing staff at Country Club Diner for always making us feel right at home
Please try clubhouse diner on Cottman ave. I wish I could give them more stars the food is great the people are great the owner will make it happen even if it’s not on the menu they have boiled pork chops on the menu I tried them and they were good but the next time I went I asked them Could he have them fried he said sure and made it happen without saying it’s not on the menu as fried now that’s how u treat your customer he always go above and beyond for his customers if something on the menu and u want it different. I say this to say good bye to red robin Diner on Frankford ave. This place has deserts as well . I even had the breakfast that’s great this place is my new go to spot . Thanks to the owner for making things happen for me when it’s not on the menu with no excuses and thanks for having great customer service which is very important in this business
Times may have changed, along with some of the neighborhood demographics, but man ole man, the quality remains. First time back eating at the Country Club in over 10 years. I happened to see the White Fish platter and decided to order. My partner ordered Eggs, Grits with Turkey Bacon. The whitefish salad was some of the best I have ever eaten. Bravo to the chef whom I was told makes it from scratch....Also I was given enough whitefish to spread on 3 bagels!!! And the CC Diner only charged 14.95!! My partner enjoyed her breakfast as well. The waitress was so nice and pleasant, as was the manager who greeted us when we walked in. To top it off, we purchased a small cheesecake for the two of us to take back to our hotel for later and my goodness; the cheesecake is one of the best if not the best I've had the pleasure of eating...Soft texture on the outside, and a creamy smooth rich flavor that melts in your mouth. A must for anyone visiting Philadelphia for a delicious diner experience and a treasure that has been around for over 60 years.
