Loved the staff! They were friendly with a great sense of humor while delivering impeccable service.

Within walking distance from the Hilton Downtown Cleveland, this is a small diner tucked away inside of an old building. There were a bunch of regulars sitting at the counter and chatting it up with the servers. We grabbed a table and were greeted right away. The server checked on us often but didn't smother us. We also witnessed a lot of folks coming in to grab to-go orders. The menu is very simple and straightforward. They serve breakfast all day and lunch service begins at 11am. We both had breakfast. Between us, we had scrambled eggs with cheese, eggs fried over-medium, bacon, French toast, pancakes and potatoes. Everything was decent. I wished that the cheese had been cooked into the scrambled eggs and allowed to melt, but that was okay. Also, the texture of the breakfast potatoes were like mashed potatoes that had been smashed and burned on the flattop grill. We weren't a fan of those. Overall, the place was cute and quaint and the staff was friendly. Everything was priced very reasonably as well. Also, anywhere you can find the locals at is usually a good sign! read more

Very busy! There is a home baseball game on the day we came, so that may be why it's so hectic. We put our name in and had about a 20 minute wait. We were quickly given a menu. It took a short bit to get our order... maybe 20 more minutes? But, they were short staffed. They had one waitress, one working the counter, one chef, and one person cleaning off tables and resetting. I think they purposefully staggered seating to make it more manageable for themselves (understandable). The food was good and we didn't feel the need to eat again for several hours. Definitely worth the stop if you are looking for a decent breakfast that is very reasonably priced! read more

Food is great, prices are low but staff attitude can be really bad. Not worth it, there are plenty of options nearby without the snarling.

Addy's Diner is a classic diner tucked inside the heart of The Arcade. It's super cute with a cozy vibe, especially with the bright neon "Addy's" sign glowing in the space. The food is exactly what you want from a diner, comforting and done right. They have my favorite style of French toast, and everything was cooked perfectly, including our extra-crispy bacon (which so many places somehow get wrong). The service was attentive without being overbearing, which made the whole experience even better. I'd easily go again! read more

Rock solid diner food and a good find in downtown. I had breakfast there while in town for a convention. I ordered a special which came with two eggs, bacon and a chocolate chip pancake. Service was prompt and coffee refills flowed like the Cuyahoga. The pancake had lots of chocolate chips, bacon was crisp and the eggs were cooked as I ordered them. This is a small diner, but the cook is super fast. So you will get in and out in good time. read more

Was craving breakfast midday and stumbled upon this spot. It's cozy and they serve breakfast all day I believe. So this place was perfect to try. Not far from the Marriott residence inn. The staff here are nice and welcoming. Wasn't feeling too well at the time so ordered my food to go. The food was really good. Pancakes are big and fluffy. I really like the homefries. Overall I would definitely come back. read more

We stayed at the hotel connected to this small arcade and was wowed by all the light and cute little shops to pop into. We saw this diner and immediately had to check it out for breakfast. It's a great spot with homestyle cooking and quick service. read more

Solid diner with basic breakfast lunch options, had a great omelette. Service was fast and food was tasty.

The food was delicious and it's a cute place. The service was terrible. We waited for a table, not a problem. We finally sat down. I asked for coffee. When I wanted a refill, the server said yes but never got it. We were sitting at the counter and the coffee was right in front of us! I finally asked someone else for coffee. It took about 25 minutes to get our food. We could see plates of food piling up and heard the cook tell them to clear the counter. I know they were busy but ignoring a customer is not acceptable. read more

I'm sure the locals like this place, maybe (unfortunately) that says something about the locals, but Addy's didn't meet expectations. The food was less than eatable. I had blueberry pancakes that were undercooked. Meaning that the batter around the blueberries was just that...uncooked batter and not cooked pancake. You could eat the edges, but dive into the center of the pancake at your peril! The coffee, which you would think any establishment called a DINER would have mastered, was terrible to the point of being undrinkable. My wife asked for a "replacement cup of coffee" which was just as bad. The ambience is not something worth judging. It's a diner with a counter in one of Cleveland's many reclaimed or repurposed "arcades" and for that they should be commended. The buildings like this one are largely empty in Cleveland and deserve to be reused. Addy's is just wasting the opportunity by not serving good food or coffee. Walk by this place and instead go to the coffee shop on the right as you first enter the arcade. I don't remember its name, BUT IT WAS PACKED WITH PEOPLE which means the coffee might be worth the wait! read more

Delicious and filling breakfast in an indoor strip of stores. Very busy and for good reason! We were seated fast, served quickly and had plenty of good food. We both had Addy's grand slam, one with chocolate chip and one with blueberry. Both were loaded with the goods. The home fries were super crispy, good bacon and sausage, and nice fluffy scrambled eggs. Prices are fair. We sat at the bar and really enjoyed, good service but also enough space for seated parties. Would recommend! read more

Addy’s Diner - One egg sausage and the best breakfast potatoes ever! - Diners Near Me - Cleveland, Ohio

This is a very small diner but has delicious food. Would recommend if not in a hurry for a small group.

It's small and they will likely have you wait in the hall until they can seat you. Don't expect a lot of smiles or courtesies when they are busy. I think if someone had told me that, maybe my experience would have been different - but I was assuming service was going to be poor. It wasn't - they were efficient, just not overly welcoming. The food was really good. Everyone seemed pleased in our group. The omelettes were super fluffy. The toast was great too. I'd still recommend - especially if you go when they aren't crowded. The food is worth it! read more

This is a small diner found in the 5th Street Arcade Mall. Luckily it is open on Sunday's and we found parking and went in a little after 11 am. It is small, but we got a table to 2 right away. Great service, and excellent food. I had one French toast, 1 egg, and sausage. It tasted so good I wanted another plate. The coffee was good too. I would def come back when in town. Very inexpensive too. read more

Great food! One hard working cook & 2 amazing servers. Wish we lived closer to visit again.

We came twice. Cheap diner breakfast. Liked the potatoes. Bacon was tiny. Was warm inside. Service was decent to ok on our first visit, took awhile to pay the check. Came back the next day, server slammed waters down to us, we were ready to order but she just left, she was too busy writing in her server pad at the line and never came back to us, we ended up walking out. read more

This was a fun find! While in Cleveland, we went to Addy's for breakfast which is located in a previously used mall space that closed due to COVID (great repurposing of an existing, unused building). They have a simple menu but great food and fast service. They do not have sugar-free jelly/jam options, fyi. read more

Addy's is a great breakfast spot in the downtown area. They serve a traditional breakfast at a reasonable price. It's tucked inside a shopping area so you can't see it from the street. Enter when you see the 5th Street Arcade entrance. At Addy's you can sit at the counter or find a table. The wait staff was friendly and my order was served quickly. read more

Addy's diner is a Cleveland classic. I went for brunch with my then-boyfriend at the time, and the food was basic, but done very well. It kind of reminds me of a more homely/homemade Denny's? We got biscuits, ham, eggs, etc. and there was nothing wrong with any of it! This is the reason I give four stars actually -- it wasn't particularly spectacular, but I left full and it was all done well. The staff were friendly, and I could tell working very hard because the place was actually quite full and had a bit of a wait (I actually didn't succeed in going with a friend the first time I'd tried because it was so packed and the wait was long). The location in downtown Cleveland is fun so that you can get brunch, and then go out to do things if you like hanging out downtown. Overall -- solid brunch spot, but there are others in Cleveland that I did like better since they had more unique/creative items on the menu! But if you're looking for homely classics, this spot is great. read more

We stopped in here for breakfast since we were staying in the hotel across the street. Food was good and fast. There was no obvious kids menu but they still made him a cute bear pancake without us asking which we really appreciated. read more

Great eggs benedict, served quickly, at an extremely reasonable price! I'd definitely come back!

Had bfast this am while on a business trip. Love the vide. Love the food. Fresh made food .. highly recommend this place.

Nice simple diner menu. Great coffee greeted us. Great service did not. Surly server. Don't start my pre-caffeinated morning with a face that an undertaker would instinctively bury. Dragnet's Jack Webb with a blond ponytail. Just the order. She's one step away from Waffle House. (This is not a compliment.) My Benedict arrived with a flattened egg on one. Cook and the server both let that hit my table. I asked for another. It came just as I finished. Place is busy. Not a lot of choices in downtown drive their business. Food is competent, not five star awesome. Won't thrill ya, won't kill ya. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ read more

Addy’s Diner - Diners Near Me - Cleveland, Ohio

Visiting from out of state, decided to check this place out. We were told 20-25min wait time to be seated, I'm pretty sure we waited 40min before we got seated. The hostess was so sweet and kind and kept us in the loop about the wait. Our waitress, honestly has the worst customer service I have ever had. When we told her there was a sticker on the lemon, she doesn't apologize, has a complete attitude. Never came to check on us or communicate to us on why our food was taking so long to come to our table. When it was time to pay, I had to go to the cash register to pay, our waitress had an attitude when I told her we were ready to pay. The food: it was pretty good, prices are reasonable. Overall, hire a new waitress who has better customer service. read more

One thing I wish my friends did for me in Fortnite is yell out: LET HIM COOK! But the problem is that my friends are uncool, I'm not actually cooking, and I'm maybe 20 years too old for the game and the lingo. I wish I could do that for the cook here though. Do you remember when McDonald's fries were less consistent and you'd get the occasional brown fry soaked with oil and how good that was? Their home fries are like that all throughout. This dude ordered home fries to go on the way out. He knows what's up. LET HIM COOK read more

Addy’s Diner - Diner omelet with spinach, tomato, onion, cheddar. And the famous home fries. - Diners Near Me - Cleveland, Ohio

Addy's Diner is located inside of the 5th street arcade. It's right in the middle so you can enter from either Euclid or Prospect. Upon entering they have a few seats where you can sit along the diner to the right, some half booths along the left and back, and a few tables to the center of the room. Great usage of a quaint space. All of the staff here were friendly and welcoming. I love that breakfast is served all day and the prices are beyond reasonable. I had their One French Toast ($6.99) with includes an egg and bacon, sausage or ham in which I picked sunny side up and bacon. Yum. Since the weather was so cold, I also asked for a cup of Coffee ($2.50) in which they generously replenished the whole time I was there. The meal was prepared quickly and everything was delicious. The French toast was well soaked, the bacon was crispy and my sunny side up was perfectly formed. The experience was very warm, both emotionally and physically since I was able to escape from the cold outside and enjoy a delicious meal. I wholehearted support this establishment and have recommended it to my friend who lives in the area. read more

Addy’s Diner - French toast, ( my kid would not wait to eat) Hashbrowns, scrambled eggs and a Belgium waffle.. All so good. - Diners Near Me - Cleveland, Ohio

This place kept coming up as a recommended breakfast spot when searching for breakfast/diners in the area. It is small and gives the promising diner vibe. It stops right at the coffee. By no means are we coffee or food snobs but It was by far the worst we have ever experienced. It was so poor that I asked for a second cup to see if the first was a mistake and sadly it was still awful. It seemed like they made a pot with old, used coffee grounds. It just tasted like dirty water. The food was just ok but nothing to write home about. The best part was probably the toast. I hate leaving poor reviews but wish an honest review like this was available before we tried this place. If you are visiting (like us) a much better option in terms of quality, friendliness and price is worth a short walk down the street to Yours Truly. read more

Highly recommend Addy's if you are looking for a classic breakfast! Be prepared to wait as seating is limited but certainly worth the wait.

Visited Ady's Diner in The Arcade while in town and had a great experience. The waitress was friendly, and prompt. We ordered Eggs Benedict which was phenomenal, and the food came out quick. The atmosphere was your typical diner with a small interior and a couple tables. Definitely a great spot if you're in the mood for a delicious breakfast. read more
