Western omelette is very good, along with the grits, and toast. Super fast and very friendly. I will definitely will come back. Definitely recommend for home cooked meals
Great breakfast spot. Be sure to look at the plates others around you look like before you order. You get a lot for your money. They cook everything just like I like it!
Had always been to Pelham Diner for breakfast, and let me tell you, you can’t go wrong with their breakfast.But today we stopped by here lunch. A meat and three served cafeteria style. I had meatloaf with green beans and sweet potato casserole. Only complaint was a little too much sauce on the meatloaf for my taste but had an excellent flavor.Wife ordered the country fried steak with mashed potatoes, fried okra and blackberry cobble. She cleaned her plate, which is unusual for her. Said everything was excellent.Service and staff are top notch and make you feel like your at grandma’s table.Definitely a winner for lunch and prices can’t be beat!!
Best breakfast since visiting Hoover. Our waitress Melissa couldnt make us feel more welcomed! If youre into Oatmeal, youre in luck and if youre a meat eater try the Oozmoo ( I know I did not spell that right 😂!) youll find it on the menu its the only weird word. After breakfast stop and chat with Mark outside having a cigar. Hes a WEALTH of Intel if youre from out of town like us. 👍
Martha Ellis, you are correct about the staff on the day of your visit. The owner passed away last Friday and it was all they could do to hold it together and yet they did for us. You will never find a staff that works harder and cares about their guests more than Tammy, Melissa, Sam and All.May you and yours stay safe and well.
Loved it. Fun family diner. Delicious food and friendly super staff. A must visit diner.
Family friendly, good southern style food, kind service.
Love the omeletes here! Good stuff
Absolutely fantastic breakfast! I highly recommend!!
We were on our way to Orange Beach for family vacation. Stopped at a well known chain where the place was filthy and not even greeted at the door… we left. Found this cute little diner on a whim and it was AMAZING! Although the staff seemed overwhelmed, they greeted everyone with a smile and the food was so good. Can’t wait to visit again next year on our way to vacation. We were patient and enjoyed the fresh brewed coffee 👌🏽
Food was great, service seemed a bit over would keep. Juggling other things besides the customers. However other staff filled in to where our waitress was not meeting her obligation. Would for sure stop by again though. Just for the food alone
Their blueberry pancakes taste like blueberry cobbler. The double stack is worth it but actually is almost a food challenge (keep this in mind they are as big as the plate they serve everything else on). Will be back when I have money for the triple stack.
We had no wait time on a busy Sunday morning. The waitstaff was great, and the food was amazing. A perfect hole in the wall when you want a delicious Meat & 3 that is also very affordable.
Fresh food at a great price. They never disappoint.
Gives you the old time feel of dinning in. Staff was very friendly and service was awesome. Food was very good. Prices were extremely reasonable.
This seems like a really popular spot. Great atmosphere. I ate here twice for breakfast. The food is good. I cant really say its better than that. Nothing has really wowed me and made me want to come back often.Will update once I go back for lunch/dinner.
Great service by our waitress. She was very busy but still took care of us. The food was delicious.
Food was good. The floors were dirty. None the staff was smiling they looked like they would like to be someone else.
My family and I came to visit family and wanted to get some breakfast. Didn’t realize they stopped serving at 10:30 so we decided to stay anyways for their lunch. IM SO GLAD WE DID!! By far the most amazing food I’ve had in a long time. I got the fried fish, fried okra and collard greens. Extremely yummy!! I even told my family who lives in Alabama about the diner for them to go back and try it out! Will remember this place for the future!!
My husband and I went here a couple of weeks back. We arrived close to closing time but there was still a good selection of food available.We both had the hamburger steak and gravy.It was excellent. It was big enough so as to not draw complaints about not getting enough to eat.Along with my hamburger steak I had baby lima beans, macaroni n cheese and I had to try the bread pudding even though I knew that I would be stuffed.The limas were good, the macaroni n cheese is top shelf, and the bread pudding was delicious.It has pineapple in it and that was a nice surprise.We will come back and eat at The Pelham Diner again for breakfast (excellent omelettes), meat & three or just lunch straight from the menu.We recommend you do too...
Cafeteria - meat & two.Good home cooked food.
The service was outstanding. The food was simply perfection! I ordered the Oxmoore Breakfast and because it was our first time there we were treated to a free in house made cinnamon roll! I highly recommend 👌🏽👌🏽👌🏽
LOVE the food here. Even our kids love eating here. We have eaten breakfast several times. Tammy is amazing! Lunch is cafeteria style and it was terrific as well!
Went there for the first time. Great breakfast, i even loved the (slightly burnt) hashbrowns :) and had leftovers. Win win.
Awesome food. The service was great. You will need to very hungry because their plates are big.
First time here. Will return to sample other breakfast items. Also would like to try the lunch selections.
This is great home cooking filled with flavor and love! I ended up going for breakfast and lunch during the same week. I called in my breakfast order. This was my first time trying them. I order 2 pancakes with blueberries and bananas with smoked sausage. When she handed me my bag, I thought the order was wrong because of how heavy it was. I didnt know that their pancakes are gigantic! The pancakes were bigger than the box. I really only needed one. They taste great and reheat pretty well. The second time I decided to dine in for lunch with my mom. Its buffet line style meat and 2 (or 3 if youre really hungry). I had the baked fish, green lima beans, fried okra, and a roll. You cant really mess up baked fish.The lima beans were well seasoned and reminded me of my grannys. The fried okra was just plain perfect! Crispy but not overly greasy. I most definitely will go back!
Fantastic service and food. Cant go wrong here!
Delicious food. I went for the first time recently to get a takeout lunch. Parking lot was full of locals including trucks with names of local businesses which told me that many people take their lunch breaks here. Meat and 2-3 vegetables roll or cornbread was served cafeteria style. I could have chosen from a number of sandwiches off the menu and called ahead. Plan to go back sometime and try their breakfast. It would be easy to miss this place from the road. Next to Enterprise Car Rental.
Food was delicious, not the usual chain-style restaurant which was ideal. Friendly staff. Will definitely return.
Its a true down home cooking place for sure, very impressed! Not your typical meat and 3 with zero flavor.
Great breakfast omelet actually tasted like eggs. Prompt and friendly service. Locals favorite place.
Food is awesome service is down home great prices a little over budget but worth it
Huge omelet! Great food and service. Worth the wait :)
The service is fantastic! The people are great! However I did not like there chicken. But other than that its great!
Staff and waitress were nice. The food was extremely greasy and below expectations for a small diner. The sweet tea however was great.
Came here for breakfast and we loved it! Breakfast was delicious and the service was great and very friendly! Wish we lived here so we could come here more often!
Great little place to eat. Very nice staff and pretty good selection
Great bunch of people that work and own this restaurant
We arent from this state but the diner was recommended to us. Let me say it didnt disappoint! Im so thankful its not closer to my home town because I would be here every morning. Fantastic food and service was top notch
Great food and great service!
Great breakfast kids love the smiling part cakes. Biscuits and gravey were perfect. Staff was kind and welcome
Definitely a wonderful place to go!! Food was awesome and service was aceptional!! We are here for Volleyball and highly recommend this place!!
Went at lunch service was expeditious, hot and delicious. You have to try the homemade cinnamon roll.
Food is very greasy. Found a piece of nail in my tea and hair in my food, separate occasions One one my co-workers also found hair in the food. Customer Service has declined. Portions are small and price too high
Love this restaurant. Great breakfast. Cafeteria style at lunch. Food is great and the service is even better.
You want food that tastes like your grandma made it? Well this is the place. Get a meat and 2,3,4 whatever because its all good. Alice takes great care in prepping the food and it shows. Cool small diner atmosphere in a great location. When you get tired of fast food and the big chain restaurants this is the place to go. If you eat out a few times a week make this one if them.
Borderline terrible. Meatloaf was just mush and vegetables all tasted canned.
Thoroughly enjoyed our breakfast of western omelet, hash browns and biscuits. Mighty fine!
If you want a good breakfast with good service, go here. Family owned and operated. Great atmosphere. Its becoming a reg hang out.
Loved the food and the great customer service, will be back thanks Pelham Diner for the experience!!!!!!
Great Food and even better staff. If you like a meat and three with generous portions this is the place. They have beef tips and rice like Grandma made it.
Food was great. Service was excellent.
Very good meat and 3! I love fried chicken day. Try the apple cobbler if they have it.
They take great care in making sure the food is good and tasty... which is why the grits are soooooo disappointing. I think Ive had less salt on movie popcorn then they use in the grits.
I had the senior breakfast today and loved it! Biscuit topped with a scrambled egg with gravy on top. I wasnt sure I wanted the gravy on top of everything, but it was delicious. A true local diner, great food and friendly people!
Very good place for breakfast. Staff is excellent.
Pelham Diner has become a Sunday breakfast ritual for us. Food is good and plentiful!
Great food and great service!
1st time there. Needed a good breakfast and received a great breakfast with excellent excellent service. Will try lunch at later date
Best food in town! Hard workers who have the gift of hospitality ! Theywill not let you leave until you are full and happy and that is an easy way to get at this restaurant!
Good food and service. I believe Caleb was our server. He did a great job. I ordered the Kitchen Sink with Scrambled egg, so good!
Amazing breakfast and friendly staff. This is my go to for a nice home cooked breakfast when ever I can squeeze it in
Food is outstanding! The chef Tony is a awesome young man. The wait staff are super friendly and personable. Prices are great as well.
Delicious food!
Love this place. Food is always good. Staff is helpful and friendly
Wonderful selection. Good people.
First time to try this little diner. There were several great choices on meat and three line and I went with baked Greek chicken, black-eyed peas, green beans, yeast roll, and iced tea. Everything was tasty; loved the yeast roll, served with real butter. The tea was divine (I am picky). You can also order off menu which consists of hoagies, burgers, salads, etc. Super friendly and reasonably priced. Breakfast at 6:00 AM, Lunch 11 to 2, closed Saturday. Definitely recommend.
Waited for forever. Nice people tho.
Delicious and very filling! Id suggest only ordering one pancake!
Ill start by saying the staff was nice! However the food wasnt great at all. The service was SO slow. It took around 45 mins to get breakfast after being seated. We ordered immediately. The eggs were hard, the grits were salty. My husband didnt care for his food either. But at least we gave it a try to support the community.
Best Diner ever!Oh and, mac and cheese is a vegetable
Excellent food great prices. Super friendly staff
I love these guys super friendly and very good food
Great place. Best pancakes in town.
Wonderful food great prices and friendly staff coming back for lunch
Great meat and three diner right in hoover
Terrific breakfast. Flavorful. Big portions. Extremely friendly, attentive staff
Breakfast was really good. Grits were a little too salty, but the service was very good.
The staff is ALWAYS courteous and helpful, remembers their regulars, and treat you like family! The Diner is my favorite place to eat! Highly recommend if you love southern food!
We have breakfast here whenever were in Birmingham and have always had an excellent experience and excellent staff
Pelham Diner is very consistent with good food and service. The employees are friendly and really appreciate your business. If youre craving a great meat & three, Pelham Diner is tough to beat.
Great prices, good food.. friendly staff
Great service love the comfort food
Great Breakfast
Always a great choice for brakfast. That being said, the grits had more salt in them than a deer lick block. The rest of the brakfast was spot on
Great food, great customer service and quick
I could only eat half of my food as I dont eat a lot. Food and staff are awesome
Food is good and prices are fair
Great Breakfast! Country ham is outstanding.
