Ordered the ham and cheese omelette with extra ham and extra cheese did not get that the ham inside was burnt to a crisp and asked for my hashbrowns to be lightly done. They were burnt and my toast was burnt. I ignored the first time then I ordered it again on the following Saturday and again same thing burnt food finally called him and told him about it. They were nice and they said they were credit me but then when I tried to call today, they literally said they couldn't honor it because they didn't know who said it who wrote it down or if they wrote it down and they can't just give away free food and then when I asked if I can talk to the owner, they said that that he never comes in very often and that even if she gave him my number that he would probably not even call seems to me the owner don't give a fuck about his customers anymore. It's been a long time standing diner, which has totally fallen apart it doesn't have that nice hometown feeling anymore and they have definitely lost a customer for life. If the owner don't give a fuck neither do I and I highly advise everyone not to even go because their food literally sucks now has no flavor. The spaghetti sucked someone else had the country fried steak said it tasted just like a hospital food with no flavor so to me I don't see the Bankhead Diner staying open very much longer especially if the owner is gonna continue to treat his customers and it seems like their employees as well. Shitty so so when I recommend this place hell no and I don't even wanna rate it I give it a 0. I want to write it a -10. read more

I worked very close and ate there many time. i ordered basic meals and they got used to me coming in. I always tipped well but the service got worse. They got in the habit of not checking on the customers and were more concerned with their phones. The last straw was getting served COLD fries. I honestly believe they were off another plate. I complained when I checked out because the waitress never checked and was told "we'll make sure next time " never went back. read more

came here specifically to see what the hubbub about it being to political was. I now see it was just a front to hide an incredible establishment. not a lick of politics to be heard or seen. had country fried steak with gravy, fried okra, Mac n cheese, and then some swamp cabbage. only complaint, is how full i am now while writing this. read more

I have eaten here plenty of times in the past but will not be back. Too many options for food in the area to eat in a restaurant that pushes their political views on its customers. This is one picture but the stuff was EVERYWHERE! Doesn't matter who you vote for or what party. This doesn't belong in any food establishment. read more

Bankhead Diner - Political BS on the walls - Diners Near Me - Douglasville, Georgia

Went in for a late breakfast with the kids and seeing that they closed at 2pm I assumed that meant breakfast would be served throughout. Unfortunately, I found out they stopped serving breakfast at noon at 12:04pm. Left to go elsewhere, and as I didn't eat any food I cannot advise upon that. Everyone was very polite, but I hope this review helps someone else down the road. read more

One of the locally owned restaurants near me, had great food and normal proportions. The service was good and they were friendly. I saw nothing political on the walls so that must have changed since the last reviewers. I'll be back soon. read more

There are political signs and they are very rude and not customer service, they also make disrespectful comments to customers especially woman read more

Too political. Political signs everywhere. The only reason to post so many political signs in a restaurant is to alienate people. Atmosphere was not welcoming at all. Do not recommend. read more

Food absolutely horrible. Had chicken fried steak, white gravy, cornbread and creamed corn. I've had better TV dinners. The only thing that had any flavor was the canned creamed corn. And the servers could care less if your there. Not one had a smile or personality. Asked if coleslaw was creamy or dry. She didn't know. She doesn't eat coleslaw. WTH ? What surprised me is that it was busy. Everyone Seniors. But so are we. Too bad they've lost their tastebuds. Should have gone to Checkers like I wanted. read more

Food is always great. Very home cooked meal vibe. Service is alright for the most part. Out of the couple times I've been, my order was only wrong once but they just forgot cheese in my grits so that's not a big deal at all. Inside is very much diner vibes. Will always come back! read more

Proof was delish nd came out fast will def be coming back we went for breakfast i can't wait to try dinner

Came in after the breakfast rush on a Saturday morning and bless em', they were cleaning up as fast as they possibly could! Sat at the bar and service was quick and friendly. It's Mom and Pop and some prices didn't make a lot of sense but they have to make money. Egg and cheese sandwich was good as well as the omelette! read more

Couldn't wait to dig in..when I did it was good. Bacon was thick and crispy..they even have strick o lean (fat back).they were out of it but i have to come back and try it. I remeber my mom used to cook it when i was a kid. read more

Bankhead Diner - bacon, eggs, and hash browns - Diners Near Me - Douglasville, Georgia

The food is great and the prices are very reasonable. The swap cabbage is the most popular option.

I have been going to this Diner for more then a year.... In the begining, Waitress's were nice & friendly, Food is very good & hot. Over the last couple of months almost all the original staff is gone, & the way of seating, menu's, & taking order's is ridiculious.. Needs a floor manager that knows what they are doing... Once seated, the Guest should be given a Menu, Drink, then take their Order,,,,,NOT wait for 4 different people to do the job.... All waitress's share tips, which is fine, As they all help each other. The Guest would get food faster, Leave, & table set up for next Guest,,,,, So they would make more tips, for a faster turn over. I have been in customer service for 30 years, Everyone there seems so stressed... read more

Bankhead Diner - (770)947-0999 - Diners Near Me - Douglasville, Georgia

I have eaten here for years, but no more. Service has been getting worse, today finally took me over the edge. We waited forever for anyone to take our drink order, and then got it wrong. Then another forever to take our order. I ordered a western omelet with salsa. When it arrived - out of salsa. Ok that would have been nice to know. Then no one checked on us again. Had to go to another table to get pepper. Then I had to wait 5 more minutes for someone to come to counter so i could pay for this disaster. We have to drive a ways to get here. Thank you Bankhead Diner for the good times before. Hit me up when you get your act together. read more

I chose to eat here for lunch because it's the closest restaurant to an indoor play place (think inflatables). Typical old-school Southern diner fare. For lunch there were sandwiches like tuna salad, grilled chicken, and burgers, as well as "meat & three" options with ham, country fried steak and tons of classic sides like mac & cheese, fried okra, creamed corn, pickled beets and cucumber salad. It's passable home cooking, nothing fancy or outstanding. The service stood out because it was slow. It was lunchtime on a weekday, but it wasn't that busy. My friend had to get up and hunt down our server to order our food because we waited so long, and then I had to ask twice for milk for my child (although she didn't charge me for it because of that). If you're in the area and want a predictable, cheap meal, it's fine. read more

I love the service and the waitresses were very kind. My food came out great and I had no complaints.

I had gone to Stoddard's next door and decided to get a bit to eat. So I went to see what all the fuss was about from the previous reviews. I fully expected a train wreck. What I saw was a decent, but older little "mom and pop" diner that does old school home-style cooking very well. The staff is not trained to the level of the Georgian Club, its true, but then again, this is not the Georgian Club. It appears to be a small family owned and operated business so people multi-task. The country fried steak was great, the mashed potatoes were fine. It was all about what I would expect at the price point. My friend had the chicken and raved about it. If you are looking for a 5-star experience, this is not your place. If you are looking for good food, reasonably priced served in a old school diner style, well, this is not a bad choice. I did not see any confederate flag t-shirts. I did have the waitress that one reviewer suggested was on crack or a prostitute because of her mouth and eye movements. She was very competent and good. She does have twitch or two appearing to be something like a hyperkinetic disorder to me, but I guess for some it is easier to classify anyone with disability a crack head. I will be back when in Douglasville. Overall, I find this to be a good place to eat. read more

Went to Sunday afternoon dinner, best fried chicken I have had in a long time, generous portions, waitress was super nice and fast. Value was great. read more

The food at this place isn't very good. I've gone a couple of times for breakfast, and both times I was disappointed. The confederate flag t-shirts on the waitresses aren't necessary. read more

If you want straight forward, no frills meal then this is a decent place. I don't want fancy or frilly. I want a reasonable meal, decent service and fair prices... that's Bankhead Diner. Good country style food, whether is breakfast or lunch. I usually go in for breakfast on the weekends and food and service is always pretty good. read more

The food is typical Diner home cooking food. There was really rotten service. The waitress came and took our drink order but, NEVER came back for our food order! I had to go up to the cashier and ask if we could order. The waitress came to our table but never apologized. If I didn't have my hungry son with me, I would have left after the drinks. The waitress did offer to put our drinks in to go cups at the end of our meal but, that was the only nice thing that she offered. read more

We happened upon this place after going to Stoddards. The Friday special was fried catfish or popcorn shrimp. I had the catfish, my husband had the shrimp. We both were very satisfied with the meal. I found the whole fried catfish delicious. It came out hot, not greasy and the cornmeal coating was well seasoned. The turnip greens served as a side were also seasoned well and the hush puppy was very good. My husband also enjoyed his fried shrimp basket which was typical of a popcorn shrimp basket with coleslaw and french fries. The diner closes at 7 PM on weekdays and has mainly breakfast and lunch items but they have a daily special which is appropriate for lunch or early dinner. There is nothing fancy here but we'll be returning to try some of the other specials. I definitely recommend going for the Friday catfish. read more

I have eaten here for breakfast several times now. Great food, served fast and hot. Relaxed comfortable environment. I will be back

we went there in our mood for breakfast and these girls who worked there that day were very rude and one of these girls act like she was on crack because of the way she act, moved her mouth, and eyes wide open trying to act like she is a prostitute so we decided to leave right after we done eating and went up to the cashier and gave my credit card which i wrote on the back stated "check id required" and the lady got upset because we didnt give her the tips and she just swept the card without asking for my drivers license and we "argued" with the lady by law she must check the drivers license and she kept complaining about not getting tips and we explained why we didnt give them tips due to her attitude and behavior and she walked off so we left and called this restaurant and asked for the manager and they hung up on me numerous of times so we decided to drive back there and asked for the manager and guess who came up to us? the lady on crack... of course! and we were like speechless and explained the whole situation and she just didnt seem to care and i told them we wanted a refund and she refused so we handed them couple of papers that says by law whomever must check drivers license if back of the card says it needed to be check... still no luck so we went to the bank and filled out paperwork so we could get a refunded... we decided not go to this place ever again!!! read more
