We happened upon this diner several months ago by chance and now we literally plan our trips home from Branson around stopping here for breakfast on the way. The food is great and cooked just right, every time. The employees are attentive, courteous, accurate, and speedy. The young man who helped us today was especially great. This place is seriously a hidden gem.
Wait times are insane. It feels like every time I go, the longer. Food is good but isnt worth the huge wait. Went in the other day, was the first person inside. was only accompanied by one other person. We didnt order much. I noticed more people with bigger parties coming after us would get their order before us. At one point pretty much everyone had got their food except us. I do like the large portions. One plate will feed me for 2 days! Prices are pretty good. Main issue is the lack of card support. I noticed a comment from 5 years ago, where their main issue was cards not accepted. The owner responded saying that they were considering getting a reader. Well they didnt. Theres ton of readers in Walmart. Even the smallest 10 dollar square reader, would have done the job. I understand that theres fees that go into cards, but Ive seen other local restaurants who can still accept cards. Some charge a fee for a few cents to make up their lost. Its better than not accepting cards at all. I understand that they have signs stating that they dont accept cards, but come on. As someone who doesnt carry that much cash on me, I really dont like having to go to the bank or find an ATM just to come eat here.
We stopped in here after reading reviews and we were not disappointed in the least. Our waitress was kind and very helpful. The food was fresh, hot and very well priced. We did not have to wait long for our order. The dinner itself is really cool, its kinda like those old photos you see from the 50s, it was a neat place to visit. We will definitely stop by again when we roll through here again.
Truly great food. It’s nothing fancy, but it’s delicious every time no matter what you get. I typically go with something like a BLT, a burger or something like that. Normally paired with cheese fries or onion rings and you won’t be disappointed! Make sure to bring cash or checks as they don’t take cards. The perfect breakfast or lunch spot.
Beyond perfection. Service is fast and friendly. Breakfast was excellent, pancakes are as big as the plate, tastes wonderful. Bacon and sausage both were excellent. CHOCOLATE GRAVY on menu was sooo good. Eggs and hash browns were just right. I cant say enough good about the Neighborhood Diner! Highly recommended!!
Highly recommend. Homemade slaw and fresh salad. Great sweet tea. Hamburger steak was delicious. Bring cash! They don’t accept cards.
We order delivery usually a couple times a month and they never disappoint. Food is always delicious and is on time. Love the delivery option since that is so limited in Harrison, AR.
Absolutely Delicious, Friendly Staff and Locals!!! Love that they give you the opportunity to pay for a meal that they share a meal with the needed!! May God continue to show his love and blessings through them!!
It was the busy lunch crowd, but we didnt mind the wait. Seating is limited, but the staff is friendly. The poor busy waitress forgot my lettus and tomatoe I ordered on my pattie melt, but offered to bring some. I would not recommend the cole slaw as the cabbage was old and the flavor was bland. The fries on the other hand were seasoned and fried to perfection. Sorry no picture of the pattie melt, but it had diced onion not sliced and the burger was OK, but I added the extra seasoning (Cavender Greek) on the table.
Meh...Could have been better. RESPONSE- Wait staff was nice but messed up our order (totally wrong) and didnt offer to make it right. Just as we were finishing up she had also messed up the order for the table behind ours. Food was ok but nothing special so you get 3 stars. I can look past the cash only but this should be identified somehow on Google so customers know.
Awesome omelette and my husband loved the chicken fried steak breakfast!! Delicious and great prices!! Terrific service also!!
Hats off to the chef. Now I aint never ever seen such a beautiful disaster as the one blonde waitress. The other girl had to pick up her slack big time. But the food was good 😁
First time here. Stopped I. For a coffee, I was offered flavored creamer and pre packaged utensil to stir my coffee and have a napkin. What outstanding service. It will now be my goto place for breakfast and lunch every single time I am in Harrison. You don’t find customer service like this anymore. 10 stars on customer service.
Walked in about 8 Sunday morning. First time was and recommended. Small put very cozy place. Employees were nice. Orderd breakfast and was taking a really long time and notice two other patrons walked in about 10 minutes after we did. They received their food in 5 minutes and we still didnt have our food.. Didnt like the omelettes. And be prepared to PAY CASH OR CHECK.
A MUST STOP when driving through Harrison Arkansas, great food and service !!!!Get ya a fried pie with your meal
Just awesome! Owner was our server(so that was a blessing) and when we asked for corned beef hash he said “it’s not on the menu, but I can make it special for you.” Now THAT’s service!! Everything we ordered was delicious. If I could give 6 stars, I would. We had the pancakes, eggs, corned beef hash, waffle and hash browns. Delish!
I enjoyed it But the price of ham I received was the same size as a match box
Employees are great people to be around very helpful. Very Good Fast Food.
Best breakfast in town! Friendly service. Seating is limited and they only take cash. I will definitely be here again!
Good quality is excellent the place is clean. Prices are decent. Service is good. However there tends to be an extensive wait time on food at times. there is something called the sharing wall which is a very great idea it is away for the community and the restaurant to give back. it works like this. When a customer comes in they can buy an extra order anyting of their choice from the the menu. Once it is paid for the ticket is placed on what is called the sharing wall.then people in the community that are down on their luck or have a little problems with money sometimes can come in they can get a ticket off of wall get it made for them free of charge. They can sit down and have a drink of their choice and the restaurant supplies the drink and the place to sit and eat a nice meal. For this reason alone I give the restaurant and overall 4 stars.
Its a good place to eat. Good Home grown cooking.. Delicious..
There breakfast is a Sunday staple and they deliver. The gravy is legendary.
Great little diner! Had a burger while my wife had the country fried steak. Both were pretty good. Please note, cash and check only with limited dine in capacity.
One of the few places that delivers besides the pizza places or using delivery companies! Their prices are reasonable and they have the best omelettes and chicken livers! The staff are very friendly as well as the delivery people!
Decent prices, what you would expect from diner food. Noting shocking or crazy but its solid.
Great food is always. Theres some new Young help in there very kind and helpful
Awesome place. Had a huge breakfast.
This is the best, down home place to eat! My husband and I stopped by on our way back to Missouri and were thrilled with the food, prices, and friendly faces. Seriously, this place is a gem if you like real from-scratch country food and want to take a step back in time a little. The fried okra, country fried steak, coleslaw, dinner roll, and apple fried pie were all freshly made and ON POINT! Very cheerful atmosphere... The cook, Sam, was singing a bit in the back XD and our waitress was really friendly. They have a board on the wall of all their regulars from the past and present which I thought was so cool. I wish we had a place like this where we live. Next time we drive through the area we will be stopping in again!
Awsome good! I love their wall of a shared meal and for what it stands for. The love of others...
Good food, good prices, friendly staff. Delivery is only $2 also, so very convenient. Love their food.
The people are always friendly and have amazing service and great food. I would highly recommend that you eat there every time you are in Harrison 🌟
2 burger meals with fries soda and water. 25 bucks. Everything tasted good. Great friendly people 😁
Passing thru town and decided to stop with our 6 grandkids. Almost didnt stop, but so glad we did. The food was delicious and plentiful. Would recommend it to anyone.
Amazing comfort food the taste of Grandmas home 🏡
Amazing breakfast! Bacon eggs and biscuits with sausage gravy. So good
Pretty good, smaller portions. The meatloaf was not as good as I was hoping.
For some reason it took an extremely long time to get our food. I got pork tenderloin breakfast. Good food though.
Amazing service! Great food! Im allergic to MSG and they were very kind to go through the menu and tell me what was MSG free. ❤️
Its like walking back into the 70. Cute, small, pretty good food.
Food tasted fine but my order of french toast was one piece of bread cut in half and I had to ask for syrup. The coconut fried pie was excellent!
Classic hometown dinner in a beautiful country town! Order your eggs over medium to get the whites set, and jump on the smothered spuds! Be sure to sample local favorite seasoning Cavenders and chow down! A scattered, soft talking waitress adds to the charm of the meal! Come hungry and bring cash, as they dont accept credit cards.
Eggs were over-easy with runny whites instead of over-medium, toast was burnt, hashbrowns were soggy and undercooked, bacon was floppy, and the waitress never came back to check on us after she delivered our food. In fact, she actually left, leaving us without a server at all. The chocolate milk I ordered for my son was $1.99 and the kid cup was only half full. The bread on the club was also burnt. The club was not tastey even without the burnt toast.To the owner: I do not know how to reply to your post. So, I am editing my original post. Your menu has 2 prices for chocolate milk, $1.00 or $1.99, we did order a small and still paid $1.99. There were no ounce measurements listed on the menu. I dont know the waitresss name. All I know is she was blonde, and had her friend who was a hair stylist give her a perm at home and it came out with just the tips of her hair curly. She didnt tell me this. I heard her telling her co-worker from across the restaurant. The cook that burnt all the toast was the man that had long brown hair.New Reply: you ask who our server was that left. She was the one that LEFT!OWNER IS RUDE AND CONDESCENDING and refuses to take responsibility for his food.
Awesome food.Very inexpensive. Service was great.
Portions were very good and surprisingly food was not bland. I dont recommend this place to anyone who is sensitive about racial conversations. Remember, you are in a red state.
This diner has really good food we stopped there and ate. I give them a 5 star rating
Just went there once and had hamburgers 🍔for my wife and I it was tuff like it had been frozen and not freshly made I will probably not going to be returning if you want people to return you might want to make a great first impression.
Great biscuits and gravy with hashbrowns breakfast, yes the food is delicious ( visitors )
This place is great the staff and food are always on par if not better than some of the restaurants here in town . people complain about the wait, but this is a small diner not a mega chain. the wait is definitely worth it . whatever they dont offer on the menu if they have the ingredients for it theyll do their best to make it for you. ill always come here for their breakfast and lunch.The only downfall is its cash or check for payment.
Told the waitress I have bad teeth, would you recommend the chicken fried steak? She said yes. This is the nasty burnt rubber they served me. Paid $21 for my daughter to eat 3 chicken strips and me to eat 2 bites of beans and mash potatoes that were so peppered thats all you could taste. Do not recommend this place.
Service was great only my eggs were not cooked all the way
Excellent food. Fast, friendly service.
This place may seem like a hole in the wall, but I can tell you right now that there isnt a more homey diner around. This place has great food, great staff, and an amazing atmosphere that makes you want to sit and enjoy your time while youre there. Theyre very accommodating and will go out of their way to make sure youre having a great meal and a great time. Would 100% recommend to anyone in the area.
Busy restraunt selling a lot of sea food that people were requesting a lot. Waitress was great and also very busy.
Amazing food and service if you wanna some good food stop here
Always satisfied! Where else can you get a hamburger patty with breakfast? This is my favorite stop in Harrison.
Went there with a few dollars and it was the last minute. I was tired and had been running all day. The waiter was really nice and polite. The food was great. I will be returning with my family.
Food is always good. Just a cozy little diner where you can talk.
This is the most understated restaurant in Harrison. Food is excellent prepare with the finest ingredients ! Their double burger with 16 ozs of prime beef is mouthwatering. Sides are great as are the pies and gourmet ice cream. On Main Street going to downtown right side of the road. Its not greatest place to look at but what they serve inside is worth the wait. Tell Mallory Max said hello!!
Nice little mom pop shop. They have an open menu all day, so have that burger and fries for breakfast.
Omg the waitress was the coolest person taking care of others for 3 bucks an hour i ever met. Dang pancakes are gigantic 10 + inches round and three quarters of an inch thick. Smothered potatoes hash browns that I had with chorizo some of the best stuff Ive ever put in my mouth and they have a prepaid meal program there where people can buy a meal put it on the wall for somebody to come in who dont have enough money to eat and they can pick the meal off the wall and they get served it I thought that was really awesome its a cash- only place or check no credit card or debit . so i prepaid for the pancakes as one meal for somebody else and the smothered potatoes for somebody else as well tipped the lady waitress same as my tab i basically $ my tab * 3 and it took care of three people and me. really good price I cant say enough about this place cant wait to go back
I had Eggs omelette western style jalapeno hash brown and four toasts wheat, strawberry jams they rocking it out 🤣❤️! Glass of water and orange juice. While I was talking to my uncle he paided for my meal . Very great uncle.
Food was good. Nice size burger, staff was friendly but diner was a bit dirty.
Breakfast was so delicious! Oh, my God! The pancakes are out of this world! The staff AND the customers were very friendly. Excellent service. I love this place!
Best small diner in town
Friendly & delish great service
Their food and service are good, my only complaints lie with the inconsistency of getting Mickey Mouse pancakes that look like Mickey Mouse one day and the next just one very large pancakes with m&ms, no whipped cream provided.No masking required indoors and staff werent masked either.
V. E. R. Y L. O. N. G. W A I. T.Very mediocre food. Wasnt worth the wait.We were there on 4/17/21.
Loved the service and friendly atmosphere! Recommend them to all!!!!
I was excited after seeing the reviews on the main google page and the menu seemed like it had decent food but I was incredibly disappointed. My friends and I dined here on Friday March 19th of 2021, and after reading the other reviews that are low, its clear to see that most of our issues were common and management and owners do not handle criticism well. As my friends and I placed our orders, my friend asked a question about the chicken strips (how many) and the answer from the waitress was honestly really rude two or three and most people wouldnt think they need to specify at that point, but as my friend said that they did want that, the waitress replied two or three? we just had this conversation. As a past server myself, it would have been super easy to try and correct this without being rude such as would you like two or three or in the beginning saying you have a choice of either two or three. Past this situation, as we were getting our food, some locals obviously came in as the waitress and the cook talked to them at the bar for a long time. As soon as we got our food we were not checked on for the rest of our time being there until we sort of signaled that we were ready to leave. The waitress just seemed to talk on to the people she knew. I get it, working in a local place before, but you must take time to check on your customers no matter who you know is in there. A checkup would be needed, my friends cottage cheese had a bug in it, her roll after the rest of us tried bites had to definitely be spoiled, Im not sure if like sour dough is supposed to taste like someone used spoiled milk in the whole creation of it but it was awful. My boyfriends Frito chili pie he remarked tasted like school chili...which isnt good. My burger was subpar, very bland, the most taste on it came from the swiss cheese. My friend and I both had fries and it just seemed as if they just grabbed a small handful and called it a side, which is weird from a place that has many reviews talking about large portions. As we were dining I watched the waitress clean the table, a quick wipe down and a rag over the top of the shakers (the sugar one is the one I saw mainly) which is definitely not a good thing to do in the middle of a pandemic, even if it is slowing down it still is happening. As I said in the beginning of my review, I was really disappointed. Also how the owner handles the business on their Facebook page by getting into arguments over peoples politics is ridiculous and is no way you should ever run a business. I wont be back and I wish you luck I suppose in future endeavors.Edit: As I expected, the owner replied and assumed this was a hit piece. Its not. I have no means to place bad reviews on businesses. I rarely review. I just wanted to get my experience of this out there. Every review on every website must be taken seriously by management, staff, and potential customers, thats why I had brought up anything to do with the arguments over facebook. A business owner/management/staff/friend or whoever Josh is, needs to handle bad reviews better instead of calling people liars and trolls. I understand with one comment, a reply has been deleted but that still reserved no right for anyone to be treated that way by anyone representing a business. I have provided my google timeline as I did unfortunately actually dine at your establishment. I also provided those conversations I had discussed.
Good food and nice staff
Have you ever been so impressed with something that you just couldn’t stop talking about it? My wife and I were too busy to get out so decided to make an order for delivery. This is our first time trying the diner. It arrived packaged nicely and delivered with a smile. I didn’t know what to expect but when I saw the food my first impression was WOW! then I ate it and my impression was HOLY COW WOW! This is the BEST food I have ever received! And delivered to my front door! And to top it off their prices are excellent! I have never been so HAPPY about a food purchase in my life! We are now customers for life! If you haven’t tried it you need to! You won’t be disappointed. SIDE NOTES: Extremely fresh produce! The mixed beans, slaw and onion rings were out of this world amazing and so was the burgers we ate. Even the side salad was made with love!
Food is delicious. Homemade to perfection. They are a very generous and kind establishment, with wonderful manners and awesome servers. I loved being there.
Great food friendly service and you can buy a meal for someone in need.. I love that..
BREAKFAST IS SERVED ALL DAY!!!Great place to eat!! Love these Road Trip Style dinners and couldnt have picked a more excellent random selection!!!
Great food! The only downfall of this place is that its cash only. Other than that, awesome.
Friendly stay, excellent food. Super welcoming.
Good hot coffee, nice wait staff and prices, and excellent food. My kids love going there!
I give 5 stars simply because I always enjoy eating here. The environment is my favorite part. Quaint, small, local, all adds up to my kind of place. And the food is exactly what you came for. I admit I only eat breakfast here. I come looking for a neat and traditional American breakfast and that is exactly what I receive. The wait staff always makes me chuckle and sometimes the other patrons do too. Great place to sit and relax and have a meal.
Love the atmosphere. This is a real deal classic diner with good food and prices. The only way it could be better is if they took debit cards.
What an incredible find. A place where people actually interact and have conversations. The waitresses remember your name and what your usual is. Its a place that actually makes you feel know. The food was incredible. They have the best coffee in Harrison. It is a place you will want to visit again and again!
Very good home cooking. Staff is very freindly
I love eating here! They also deliver!
I am a loyal customer that has been coming to neighborhood diner for many years. That all changed today. Post covid-19 you would expect prices to go up. I bought 2 ranch burgers 2 orders of onion rings and 2 soda’s. Well to make a long story short, we ate the food and enjoyed it like we normally do. I got the bill with 2x13.50, 2x4.50 and 2x1.50. I handed her $30.00 cash, she came back and informed me that it was $45 and change and that their prices had went up. I pulled out a $100 bill paid for it and asked her to tell her boss that he had just lost 2 loyal people that were great customers. I just don’t believe in gouging when times get rough. With all the world in such a tough time who can afford $45 for 2 burgers 2 onion rings and 2 soda’s. Sincerely Let down in Harrison
I stopped here for breakfast the other day and I was pleasantly surprised with the serving size for the price. This restaurant offers a wide variety of homestyle comfort foods for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. The staff was very inviting and friendly as well. I would definitely come back here.
The owners are very knowledgeable and friendly. They always have something new to offer.
My family and I ate close to closing and were welcomed and received the best service. We had pancakes, which were huge and delicious, a breakfast plate. The portions are huge and the taste was on point. Great cozy atmosphere!
The people there were super nice! the food was excellent and the service was also! we had food delivered later that evening the delivery man was great too! we love this place!
Great small diner. Breakfast was good and service fast and friendly. Cash only. Well worth a stop and a bit of nostalgia.
Great food, great people. Awesome atmosphere. They operate as cash or check only so make sure to bring appropriate forms of payment
This was a horrible experience.. the portions were extremely small. The waitress kept forgetting things. They never refilled our drinks. I will not be going back
Nice and clean and good food
