The waitress was so kind and efficient. We got seated quickly even though it was really busy. The mixed berry crepe was delicious. It had a nice Valentine's Day touch with the heart sprinkles. The coffee was fresh and the waitress came over many times to refill and bring extra creamer. Will come back again to try more items on the menu. The diner itself was decorated nicely. There was even a kitchen bar you can sit at if you want quick service and come with 1 or 2 people. read more

We came to visit this place from the first time. We are Upland Residents since 2002. Never crossed my mind to dining in till today due to complexity with schedules we arrived at about 330 pm. It was my wife s bday and the 2 servers on duty even sang for her. Food was exelent. I was really surprised. Definitely my new favorite spot. Thanks for the good food and service!!! read more

I'm really surprised the reviews for Brandon's are so low. My wife came here, got our names in, and got our table pretty quickly despite it being a busy Saturday morning. It was full inside but we wanted to sit outside anyway. Then our server (Sandra) was friendly, very attentive, and kept filling my coffee cup. I definitely recommend this place! read more

Been comming to Brandons for years. Always have had good food and good service. I highly recommend it.

I've eaten here twice in two days...one time for lunch, one time for breakfast. Def an upscale neighborhood diner. Food is very good...service is even better. First day I had a party melt with onion rings. As the server brought the food, she said "wait a minute, you ordered onion rings". She said start with those, I'll be right back with your rings....no discussion...a few minutes later she returned with a giant basket a fresh onion rings...delish!! The next morning I came back for a simple breakfast...great value...lots of food. High spec bacon, and those large link sausages.loved it. Will def come back!! read more

So 1 out of 10 I give this place a 9 out of 10! Until next time we will see you STAY HUNGRY!!!! read more

We've been coming to this Brandon's in particular for 6-7 years. I've gone to others and no one makes the pancakes, and menudo better than this one! Our only complaint is that it has certain smell at this location like the sewer or pipes or bad from the bathrooms. If they could fix that situation it would be 5 stars for sure! I'll still come here nevertheless but just not as often because I can't handle that smell too much especially when eating. Ask to eat outside read more

Food portions was very small. I ordered the corn beef hash , I actually ate 3 plates of food. The crepes wer small portions as well.

Great breakfast and lunch. A ton of food, I think I had two more meals with my leftovers. Fast and friendly service. Highly recommended read more

Brandon's Diner - Ice tea - Diners Near Me - Upland, California

We ordered takeout, a Country fried steak with scrambled eggs and biscuits and gravy, and French toast and a roast beef dinner. Evidently the cook was having a bad night because the food was awful, country fried steak had gravy put on it like you would spread Mayo on a sandwich so very little gravy, eggs were over cooked and dry and it looked like half of an English muffin was subbed for a biscuit with zero gravy. French toast very oily and not tasty with zero powdered sugar and no syrup included and finally the roast beef dinner, beef was ok but there were practically no vegetables , just one little broccoli and one cauliflower and very little potatoes and very little gravy, perhaps they ran out. It was disappointing. read more

I love going here because the food is good, but what really keeps me going is the host Leilani. Just went int his last week and didn't see her. I normally always see her. Shes a breath of fresh air, amazing customer service (which is hard to find these days), goes out of her way to really help you, and always smiling! Shes a perfect representation of the special needs community and hard work ethic! If you're lucky she will be your welcoming greeter! Hope to see you soon Leilani! read more

Came here for breakfast on my birthday. Got here at 9:45 and it was busy. Took awhile for a waitress to come get our order. Food was amazing and good priced for big portions! Only issues were the restaurant is very hot. I could see the thermostat and it was set to 80! This sucked because they didn't bring that much water to our table and we got hot fast. Overall good experience but I wish they'd fix the ac 8.5/10 read more

Enjoyed the steak sandwich with crispy fries. Done perfectly. I've come to realize that steak sandwiches are gradually shrinking before my eyes. Or my eyes are looking at it from a smaller viewpoint. So what happened to keeping the steak the same size as the bun? Why is the steak two (2) inches smaller on each size of the bun? Price goes up. Steak size goes down. Whateverrrr! It was still good and the coffee was good. I'd still come back if I was in the area. It's a nice small place where you feel all squished in like sardines in a can.

Ok Yelpers, the Keep It Real Guy had to go to Upland today to see a car, and I had the pleasure to discover Brandon's Diner! So lets get after it, the food was delicious, and served with generous portions, which is very important to me! There is no cutting corners at this establishment! The cooking is very home made, and you wont leave hungry as in some places! I'm going to give this 5 stars across the board, the service warm, courteous, friendly, outstanding! Here they get everything right! Shout out to Brenda who was my server!! I live close to a Mel's Diner, they have a location is Sherman Oaks, and in Hollywood, with some In San Francisco. At Brendon's diner the food is 100 times better, along with 100 times better service! Since it is family owned you can see the pride they take, and again at this restaurant they get it right!! Keeping It REAL!!! read more

Just came to Brandons for the first time and was excited to see a busy establishment always means a good sign. The service was not great very cold and un attentive; only delivered the food and never checked on again. Even had to find someone to be able to ask for the check. The main reason for the one star in my opinion is the food it lacked flavor and freshness. I dont recommend the chilaquiles and the only thing i can say is I would only recommend the home fries and menudo if your willing to spend your money on not so good food or service. read more

The service is always pleasant. I love the diner feel . This is my favorite weekend breakfast place !

Pretty good place for lunch. I had the Cinnamon Revolution French Toast. It was pretty good. Small, homey feel to the place. It was actually surprising to me how crowded it was for a weekday. read more

Great breakfast and excellent service all due to Sandra! This lady needs a raise and is the reason I will be coming back to the Brandon's specifically in Upland. Top notch service - so attentive, she even offered to swipe our credit card in the front so we won't be hassled to do so - so considerate and precautious of her! I've been to the Brandon's in Rancho and I feel like the food is better in the Upland location - they have set up multiple tents and tables outside to ensure social distancing and safety protocols - I'm really impressed and totally feel safe eating here. I highly recommend this place read more

This place is so nice and cute, I ate outside which I highly recommend when the weather is nice. I got a Machaca plate and it was super filling and yummy. The waiter took a photo of my family, brought us extra salsa and refilled our coffees free of charge. It's also like super local and a nice find. Highly recommend :D read more

This hit the spot ! Thank you Sandra for being so great and taking care of us constantly checking up making sure we are okay and if we needed anything this place has been a hit for years ! I'll always come here glad to know it's open still thank you again ! read more

I don't like to give negative reviews but I would not recommend the Ribeye steak and eggs. The steak was cold in the middle. I felt bad returning it. My poor boys did their best to eat it. read more

Stopped in for a quick breakfast because we were in area. Never been in here before. We shared the country skillet and it was just right for us for a bit too much breakfast. Service was good. It was not very busy but was constantly turning tables. We will stop by again. read more

Brandon's diner is a great place to go after church. My family and I usually go to breakfast after church. It has great service and the food is well-cooked. It's friendly and the food is cooked quickly as well. The staff is friendly and they don't rush you out. The ambiance is also nice. read more

Food was not great at all. Country gravy was cold, Chilaquiles red sauce taste like Tapatio, waffle came with no butter, eggs were runny, and bloody Mary tasted like a glass of tomato juice. Not sure if they put any vodka in it. read more

What hubby wants, hubby gets. And hubby always wants Brandon's Diner. But for rightful reasons though! This is a classic homestyle-cooking diner in our hometown that has great daily specials and something for everyone on the menu. The two of us had huge dinner last night for $30 total including two large iced teas. The food is always great and is served hot. But the best part of Brandon's Diner is always the service. Their servers typically have worked here for years and they are always wanting to go the extra mile to make sure your meal is pleasant. I chose the fried chicken dinner which came with bread, a side of potato of your choice, vegetables, and four pieces of chicken. For $2.00 extra I added a side salad. The husband ordered a cheeseburger with fries that looked incredible. You cannot go wrong with Brandon's for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. We will definitely be back! read more

I love Brandon's, no matter the location the food quality and service are always the best. I stopped by today and they have outdoor and indoor seating, wait was not long and staff was friendly. This location has co-ed bathrooms and changes their daily soup, today was clam chowder and split pea. They recently added the mimosa flight and it was the best: i had peach, mango & jamaica (favorite). Coffee was Hot. I had the fish and chips and a salad. Salad was fresh and crisp read more

Horrible service. We were not seated according to our arrival, but by who knows the employees. The menudo was cold. I asked hostess for coffee and she didn't even acknowledge me. I will let all my family and friends that is is definitely not the place to go. Management you need to have a team meeting and discuss the importance of customer service...... as this establishment lacks customer service. Also my husband asked for his eggs over easy and they brought the eggs over well, but Marcus insisted that over easy is over hard. read more

Came here one morning with 9 others. I told the man at the register that we had a 8 or 9-person party and he stated that they don't do "large groups." A waitress ended up putting three tables together and we all got seated. This waitress had such great service. I wanted to do one check but my friends wanted every check split and she offered to do it without even looking annoyed! We all received our food hot and at the same time. Everyone enjoyed their meals and our waitress checked on us/our drinks a reasonable amount of times. I think I ended up tipping her double what my check came out to be. I hope my tip was only split between her and the cooks. Would definitely come here again based on the service provided by our waitress! read more

Great food and service. After church breakfast! We will go back . We had a large group of 12 .
