We tried Wilsons for the first time today. As soon as we walked in we saw huge corn and blueberry muffins. I had to have one. They were huge and moist. I got the corn muffin grilled with butter. So delicious! We had the gyro and Feta omelette and the country omelette. It comes with home fries and toast. Real potatoes crispy from the grill. The coffee was great. The price was good too so that all came to $32. The staff were so friendly and its good to see a family run business. Dont just drive by this place, go try it out!
Wilson is a diner brekkie-making machine! I suspect its the product of a person finding his calling and executing it to perfection. One guy personally crafting breakfast splendor for the entire place at a break-neck speed for decades...I dont know how he does it. Ive been coming here for 10 years and its always been on point. Great value, solid food and pleasant wait staff.
Love this local diner, went on the weekend from out of town so was nice to find a place where regulars go and have a great meal with friends! Food was made quickly and fresh, eggs Benedict was great as well as the Wilsons special. One of the kids pancakes wasnt fully cooked but they dont eat all their food normally anyway so no big deal! All around great experience and good food
This place is old school cash only and family owned. It’s spotless inside and they’re so nice to you. The food is good. Got a great vibe! We will definitely be back when in town
Oldie but goodie ! Since 1932 this fantastic diner has been filling walthamian bellies with great meals, whether you are having breakfast, lunch or a combination of both : brunch, this place will be good for your hunger, your pocket and your soul.
Great food and even better service. We feel like family there. Get the Gyro Meat as a side!!
Classic New England diner with excellent corned beef hash! No better place to spend a cool, weekend morning in college.
This is a real dinner. Great staff. Food comes out fast. Big portions. Had a delicious Wilsons Special.
So this is not my whole plate lol ate some then took the picture. This diner is my favorite since the first time I tried the food. The staff is awesome the cook makes the food so delicious and flavorful! I am currently pregnant and I remembered how good the food was so me and my boyfriend went back and this is what we got this time, Last time I got the fish and chips it was a special and that was delicious too. The french toast was so fresh and love how the homefries are thin slices of potato.
I have been going to Wilsons Diner regularly since I discovered it in January of this year (2020). Every meal that I have had has been wonderful. Recently, I had their Turkey Club and not only was it excellent on its own, the fries were perhaps the best that I have ever had: Crisp, hot, and flavorful. My days are frequently brightened by their food and warm, friendly, efficient wait-staff.
Pretty standard diner. Im from NJ, which is king of diners. Good food and service. Very small location.
What a wonderful diner! the staff was friendly (especially the older man who was cooking) and service was fast. i got the coconut Texas French toast with caramel sauce and sausage links. everything was delicious and cooked quickly. i will definitely be back to try some of the benedicts as well as the corned beef hash.
Friendly staff, had the turkey club sandwich w/ fries, on wheat bread. They used real turkey meat, not the deli sliced meat. Wife had the same but she had it on cinnamon toast. When were in the area again, definitely be going again.
This is a classic diner! Cash only but good food and good service. We stopped for breakfast. Nothing special but definitely comfort food.
Always good straight up diner food. No frills just good food. Super people. Good and friendly service.
Waitress thought it was funny there were so many bees swarming us . Not a pleasant lunch getting bees all over your food and drinks and waited till the end of our meal to say they don’t take card only cash and forced me to use the atm inside. Probably worst diner ouve been to
Cute diner, fresh food prepared right for you! Loved it! Will be back
Great food and great service. Smells all around.
Stopped in on way home from Boston. Great place. Terrific food and wonderful, pleasant service.
Great place for breakfast and a good coffee...excellent staff
We ordered the gyro omelette, meat omelette, corned beef hash, and avgolemono soup for breakfast. The food was amazing and we were treated like family. We just moved to the area and Im happy we now have a favorite breakfast spot.
The service and the food was excellent!! Food was fresh and delicious 😋. our server was very kind. The place was super clean. Thank you Wilsons Diner!! I will be coming back!!
If you love breakfast, you need to go here. I had the corn beef hash and it was cooked to perfection. My mouth is watering just writing this review. Go get a traditional classic breakfast.
A no frills spot with good food and friendly staff
This place is a gem!! Stopped in for a breakfast date with the wife and we were so pleased! Attentive and sincere staff brought our delicious food with speed and accuracy. Dont think about it, just stop in. I had the meat combo omelet and the wife had a breakfast combo plate. Awesome spot. See yall again soon.
Decent food at a very reasonable price
We waited for the food for more than 35 min and then it came cold
Food is wonderful and theyre always great at accommodating my allergy.
The Breakfast place. So good!
Great place good food very friendly staff I know them all by name spring and summer you can sit outside with hesters not a greasy spoon,clean and fresh.
Nice to go to a old school dinner. Good homemade Hollandaise sauce and the service was great. Waitress and cook were really nice. I will definitely return when Im in the area. They also had outside dinning
Classic Diner that you want to eat at. Hottest jalapeños in town!
Great place !!! I go here at least 5-6 times a year when th opportunity arises! A+
Old style breakfast place. Cash only
Great breakfast spot with reasonable prices
The food is amazing the Environment is comforting. I would recommend this to my friends and family and coworkers. The owner in his daughter makes you feel like family. I would definitely come back and make this a Permanent place to eat
I loved it,waitress was friendly
Authentic, retro, and solid food. Americana gold
Best breakfast in Boston
Best dinner I have eaten at since pandemic and it was incredible!!!!!!********************
I love these atmospheric places and when your breakfast is prepared in front of you. And this contact with the staff, when you can chat about different topics while your breakfast is being cooked on the stove.
Great service and food! Classic diner spot
The environment is awesome The food is amazing. I would recommend this Restaurant to the world. The owner has his daughter are just the kindest people. They make you feel like family.
Food is great. The service is not that great. I asked for a side of toast and was completely ignored.
Wilsons has charm, a great staff and wonderful comfort food. We sat at the counter and enjoyed the friendly banter and quick wit of the staff as the owner whipped up breakfast. Despite the crowd, food was prepared quickly and comes out hot. They made us feel right at home, talking to us like we had been coming there for years. We will definitely stop back next time we are in the Boston area. Bring cash, no credit cards accepted.
I love Wilson’s!! They welcome anyone and really treat you like family! Food is great!! Will never stop coming here!
Best burger and great service stop every time we are in town!
I was there early on a weekday before work. I was the only customer but others soon joined. The service was friendly and the place was as clean as Id expect for a diner of its age. Food came faster than I could check my emails. By no means my favorite breakfast spot but a solid 4 stars. If Im ever in the area for work again, I would come.
Great food and service! Must try the hash!
If you like the real original feel of dining in a railcar diner, this place is special. Love it!
Awesome people who work there and so down to earth great food
Seen this place and had to check it out, glad we did because this is such a cool place with delicious food that is reasonably priced and enjoyed the cooks attitude towards everything. We will definitely be back. I had the corned beef hash with american fries, probably the best I ever had.😋🖒🖒
I ate breakfast here with a friend and it was delicious, tasty and affordable with a lot of food. Gets pretty busy for a small place. I rated it a four star because it only accepts cash and bathroom seems to be outside.
Having Arthur cook for me one last time was a gift from heaven. He has been one of my cooks for more than 3 decades. It was sweet being able to hug me since now he will be free.
Very Delicious Food. 💋💋💋🥰🥰🥰😍😍😍❤❤❤💞💞💞💞😘😘😘😘😘
Its not bad but I wouldnt go out of my way to eat here. Bentley students really hyped it up but it was nothing special. Its been a while but I had some breakfast special, with eggs, toast, bacon, sausage, etc. Friend had chocolate chip pancakes he thought were pretty good. Prices are reasonable so if youre in the area, its a solid option but dont drive too far to come here.
This is a legit old-fashioned diner serving American breakfast favorites and some decent lunch options as well. You get a lot for your money as well and the staff is very friendly. If youre tired of chains and places that serve avocado toast, give it a try!
Great breakfast 😋
Small train trailer diner with a very limited menu which is very good. Mostly breakfast items and club sandwiches. Coffee was nice and hot without the bitter burnt taste. Food was excellent, hot, and flavorful. I got a scrambled egg special with tomatoes and feta cheese. Amazing! The homefries were my favorite part of the meal though. Seasoned to perfection without having to douse out the bland potato taste with ketchup and hot sauce which they have. Did I mention the food was served very quickly?! Service was wonderful ran by a sweet couple. My new spot for diner food. Stop by this place and you wont be disappointed.
Small, old school railcar style diner with counter and booth seating. Its nostalgic and homey with fantastic food at very reasonable cost. On the surface the menu seems basic but everything is so tasty. Most things are prepared on a well seasoned flat top grill, which must be giving off some of the deep flavor. Normally I dont bother with breakfast potatoes but these are too good to overlook, especially when mixed up as a hash with an egg topper. Oh my God, its heaven on Earth!
Super nice people in a really cool old school diner. Unfortunately the food was so gross! I ordered the steak and eggs. The steak was the grossest, most putrid meat I think I have ever eaten. The rest of the food tasted of rancid grease with not any real food flavor. I felt like throwing up at every bite. Why did I eat it? Cause I was hungry and didnt want to be rude. I hope I dont get sick! Sorry guys. I hope you change that. You seem like really nice people but you are serving food. It should be pleasant. AND your food is way over priced.
Much improved since the last time we were here. Breakfast was fast and delicious; coffee was much better!
Small mid-1900s style diner. Even has the old register. The staff is awesome and the food is great! Very very good place to get breakfast. Have been to a few in the area and this is definitely my favorite. Had an omelette and toast, both were good. Pancakes and bacon stolen from families plates were also really good.
Delicious. Awesome portions! Recommend coming here if you are in the area 🙂😁
Home style variety of the comfort favorites. Home fries soft in the middle crispy on the outside. Eggs on hash with pumpernickel and home fries. French toast, pancakes and more. All with that great dinner atmosphere of friendly service and local smiles.
Amazing food and great staff
Love this place. No frills, traditional dinner breakfast. Awesome service - hadnt been there in a few months, went back this morning, the waitress remembered my order like Id been there yesterday.
In town and googled this place. Not bad....ols school diner with an old school atmosphere.Good food
Always an awesome place for breakfast or lunch. I have utilized them for 30 years never have had a disappointing meal, great food, great service, great prices.
Great food with excellent service
Breakfast sandwiches are the way to go only 5$ and is just as much food as their 10$ plates!! Sooooo yummy!! And the owner is awesome!!
Fast and friendly service. Nice to see some change to the normal with a variety of items that have some Greek inspiration in them. All in all, if youre looking for a great dinner staple (especially breakfast) Wilsons is a good choice for a quick bite.
Just had the best all American breakfast. Cozy old fashion American diner, the food was delicious, the price is very good, kind staff.Just loved it.
Breakfast is my favorite meal and I love to go to Wilson’s as a treat on the weekends. Their food is so reasonably priced for the portion sizing and the home fries are just so dang good. They also have a pretty delicious iced coffee!
Still good food. Be going here since the 70s. Large breakfast 10 bucks to big to finish. Nice people too!!
I’ve been to a lot of diners in Mass, New York, Maine, etc and this place is honestly really good. No frills, nothing fancy or weird just good diner food. Went for breakfast and got the veggie and cheese omelette with toast and coffee for $10. Service was on point! The owner was there as well and everyone was very friendly and attentive. Service was fast but I didn’t feel rushed. Highly recommend as a Waltham native.
The service here is outstanding. The prices are good for what you get. Atmosphere is similar to a cafe in San Jose I loved.
First time visitor. Really enjoyed the atmosphere. Food was great. Service was great. Highly recommend that if you get the chance to eat there, do it.
Awesome breakfast on my husbands birthday
Classic diner. The gentleman tending the griddle was putting on a magic show. Im not sure how he was keeping up, but it was all fast and good.
It’s pretty good for a quintessential railroad type diner. They open super early. Limited menu but that’s fine. It’s just breakfast you know.
Fast, friendly and nice clean old school place. Food is not that much only cash and they do everything bare hands .
The food is delicious and true to a diner menu. Being in an authentic diner car makes it even better. The owner/cook is hilarious and entertaining.
Must visit place if you are in Waltham. Local Diner representing true Waltham Spirit. Warm people and delicious curated menu.
I absolutely love this place. The owner is incredibly friendly, the food gets to you fast, and this is one of the few places that cooks bacon right.Probably my favorite place in Waltham.
Used to be better. Now it is just blah. The service is good bet the food and portions are better elsewhere for the price.
Good food, relaxing ambience, cute original 50s decor, full of character, fast service. Only slight downside is they only accept cash but there is an ATM inside to rip you off with outrageous charges. Worth the effort though
Local fun and great food. Great people!
