Love the good ole fashion food. The service is always awesome and polite. Ive never had a bad experience with them. The waitresses are always kind, keep your drinks filled and the place and is always clean!
Good old homecoming. Simple menu and oh so good. Awesome and friendly service.
On this past Friday, I had the pleasure of experiencing the “Best Burger the World”, according to a young friend I was blessed to find time with. I truly had been looking forward for days, and he did not lie. I must though commend what made the “Experience” even more special. The effort, time, attention to detail, and making sure I was able to what I did because of the Service I Received. That waitress wore the long day she was having on her back, but she you couldn’t see it in her smile. I wanted to compliment her by name, but she didn’t have a name tag though. I asked but, couldn’t locate supervisor before I had to go, so I left every dollar I could find for her tip. If a manager should get this review, she had an olive green T-Shirt, her brown hair was pulled up, a refreshing smile, and is awesome at what she does. She got you a first timer that’s now going to make it a point to be a regular. This was Friday and I was there between 1:00-2:00pm, and sat on the left section of restaurant, the first table, in the corner side by the door. That’s how great my experience was. It’s great to find a local option, that’s better than the fast food everywhere else. Thank you all, especially that fabulous waitress for letting me “Experience the Best Burger” with someone special to me. I’ll be back soon!!Sincerely,Tommy
Had the chicken pot pie and it was good. Atmosphere was friendly as always. They were busy as usual with the 12 oclock lunch crowd but service was still good. Only thing I wish is they would accept debit/credit cards...I hardly ever have cash!
I write this with a light heart and a full stomach. Guignard (Gu-WIN-nard) Diner shows why Sumpter folk have such pride in their town. The servers knew folks by name and had their orders scribbled down and a coffee poured hot before the guests had even settled into their chairs. If youre passing through, ask about the towns baseball history and check out the museum worthy memorabilia hanging on the walls inside.Keep this place bookmarked the next time you want to grab an easy meal and a full side of great gossip.
This is a great meat and 3 country cooking home cooked kinda place and the food is awesome here and you can tell that this is real southern down home country cooking and they feature homemade traditional southern cakes which will beat any bakery cake out there!
Parking lot full so we had to stop. Server friendly & efficient. Fried chicken the #1 lunch item. I had the chicken & dumplins which were delish. Hubby had the meatloaf with gravy. Better than Cracker Barrel. Since Im on a diet I just wish they had healthier options but I made do with veggie sides.Guignards has been in business for 21 years.
The diner a small but their food and the prices are better than most of these fast food places and their eggs are good and that coffee tastes really really great I get to meet some nice people there including Bobby Richardson former Yankee Hall of Famer whose very nice to the public its a great place for meeting people and dining to I give it five stars
First time dining here. Very pleasant atmosphere, everyone was super nice, service was quick and food was great. Didnt know it was cash only....
Great service and great food. Portions are just right. Would recommend to anyone that is looking for a friendly and laid-back atmosphere.
Ordered hashbrowns, extra crunchy- got the softest, mushiest hashbrowns. The omlette was undercooked to say the least. There were raw spots. Needless to say, I wasted my money. 👎🏼👎🏽👎🏼
Great home cooked food. Staff extreamly friendly . Very hospitable
Could be better. Portions are not great. They have a set menu of daily specials for certain days if the week Locals and the older crowd keep this place afloat. Servers could dress a little more professional.
Was just out for a motorcycle ride and stopped for lunch. Very good food and very good service.
Great place for breakfast and lunch.
Great food. absolutely a great place to eat.
Clean place. Good food with moderate prices. Friendly staff. Great breakfast...
Great food and wonderful waitresses. Country feel in the center of Sumter.
Food was great. Heavy-set flowing -blond haired waitress service not so much. After finally taking my order and bringing it out, she never returned. She worked on take out orders the whole time. I wasnt aware takeout people even tip ??? Fortunately another waitress noticed me and helped.
Enjoyed the food and service and for the pice its excellent
Good food good service very clean
It was nice, nice atmosphere, friendly staff, food was good and there was no wait for the food 😋
Best food in town!!
The people were very friendly is just home cooking meals I wasnt into that the person I was with wanted to go there its just not the kind of food Id like to eat but it was good and hot
Good country cooking
Awesome place, our waitress, Iscel is the best.
Friendly staff. Just missed breakfast which stopped at 10:30am. Settled for a sandwich.Bring cash, they dont accept cards.
Good food....cash only
Decent food and prices
Guignard Diner has really great breakfast and there lunch is great too
Great food.
Fantastic home cooked food,service,best chocolate cake ever. Owner we met him and was great. This is where the locals go. Prices are very reasonable. Its where family and friends run into each other.
Excellent food and good service.
Love Guignard diner. Best food in Sumter.
Food was good. Waitress was very friendly. I really wish I remembered her name. 😍
Good home cooked food at a reasonable price.
It was great the waitresses are so friendly and the food is great
Amanda was great. she always smiling very attentive of what customers want
Guignard Diner is a cozy place to go and eat a variety of comfort foods at an inexpensive price. The staff is very friendly and service is always on point. Its a great restaurant for breakfast or lunch. You can even get vegetarian plates, which is a big plus for me. Unfortunately, they do not stay open for dinner...as they close around 3pm, but I would still recommend Guignard Diner to anyone.
Their biscuits & gravy are Delicious!!
Outrageous price for almost food ready to throw in the trash. People, staff, can be as nice as possible but how can they have any integrity knowing the food is not worth serving.
Best local diner. Food is always great. Prices are always low. Service is always fast. People are always friendly. Definitely a great place to eat. Its cash only.....but they understand if you forget and have to go to the atm.
I’m sorry to say this but I was disappointed in the taste and serving size. I actually thought they left out the turkey! It looked like only a gravy over dressing. For quality taste and serving size, it’s hard to beat the hot bar at any Piggly-Wiggly!
Food was okay small portions. Friendly service.
The food was delicious. And the wait staff are friendly and very efficient. Would definitely recommend this place to everyone.
This is a wonderful Restaurant. The food is delicious and cooked like grandmother prepared it. The price is very reasonable. Friendly, waitresses are wonderful. VERY Clean.
Food is good but thats not the most important part. The service is excellent Ruth makes you feel like youre in her home. And for many people thats exactly what it is
Called to verify if the breading on pork chops contained dairy because son is allergic. Gentleman who answered the phone said he was pretty sure. I asked him if he could verify and he said I am slammed right now and dont have timeWell if taking a 20 seconds out of your day to verify your food wont kill my son is too much to ask I have no need to ever give you my business.
Pretty good
Love it! Real down home country style food at very reasonable prices. Very friendly staff. It isnt fancy by any means... Just a very nice homey feel.
Fish is excellent. I would give 4-5 stars, but they dont take credit cards.
Love this place. Its home cooking and sweet tea. It’s like sitting in your grandma’s kitchen everytime ;)
Good food, good service, and a great place to run in to old friends and acquaintances.
Went for lunch today. The best fried chicken ever. Maxine was our very efficient waitress.Friendly relaxed family atmosphere.
Went just before lunch. We were not happy with their meals. The chicken sandwich was overcooked and dried out. And the burger was pretty much the same way. The diner is packed at lunch time. I think they would do a much better food at lunch because of the number of people that go there everyday. so try the lunch!
Great place for breakfast!
Best place for a good breakfast... no a GREAT breakfast! Great staff too!
Prompt efficient service here; thanks Amanda! Irecommend the (sweet) broccoli salad and collard greens sides cause they were delicious.
Great place for local fare. Cash or check only
Great food great service
Great food, service, down home cooking. Just bring cash they dont accept plastic or checks.
Only issue... they dont accept cards. Otherwise, service and food were outstanding.
The food is always good and the service is excellent waitresses are friendly and. Have a good sense of humor too.
Good meat and three lunch. You have a choice of meat and vegetables with quick, friendly service. Breakfast is also good.
Not spectacular. Overpriced for cafeteria style food. Everything reminded me of stuff you would get served by lunch ladies in grade school.They are cash only so do not go their if you do not carry cash.Atmosphere was that of a retirement home dinning facility I have no idea how they got on the referred list on trip adviser. (reference to get you into a mental state not to bash retirement homes or their occupants)Staff was nice.
Always friendly service and food is hot and fast
Great place eat. Very friendly waitreses and atmisfear. Great place to meet with frends.
Good food and service.

Great breakfast once again. Our ROMEO Club has a mass meeting each Friday and the 19 of us who showed up today all thoroughly enjoyed the food, service and hospitality!
Great home cooked breakfast.
Good food. Great Folks.
Great Food
I got the pork chops with mashed potatoes, green beabs, and cabbage. The food was excellent. We got there before the lunch rush so it took very little time to get our food. It gets crowded around 11:30.
Amanda and Isell are nice
Called in an order for a BLT the other morning on my way to work. Delicious and as a picky eater I didnt have to sort through my bacon because it was already chopped up for me. The lady who helped me was really sweet. We will be going there to eat as a family.
Chicken sandwich was over cooked. We were there just b4 lunch. Lunch is always crowded so that food must be better.
The service is excellent, the food is great. Love the food.
A favorite place for home cooking.
The fried chicken is out of the world! Butter beans! Cornbread! The waitresses are great! Hometown friendly!
Great food, great atmosphere, very friendly service, and very inexpensive . Ill definitely be going back
Quick food good food reasonably priced
Overrated but local. Cash only folks cash only.... As I like to say about cash-only businesses as inconvenient as they may be for the Modern Man... Whos going to know...after all its their money whose business is it and where that money goes, okay? Fohgit about it.....
Friendly people and great food. Reasonable prices.
