Prototypical diner from aesthetic, service and food. If all you care about is bang for buck you will definitely get it here. As far as the food goes, everything is seasoned fairly poorly or overcooked. I have been here a couple times, corn beef hash and pancakes and eggs are what I've had there. The corn beef was more of a borderline beef jerky with an egg on top. The pancake was a good portion but the batter you can still see its consistency as mine were a bit undercooked. Not my favorite place for breakfast diner food. Food: 1/10 Service: 7.5/10 Ambiance: it's a diner do you really go here for an ambiance? 10/10 for a diner. read more

First time trying Carol's Corner. #1) Come HUNGRY!, 2) Wear elastic waistband pants, and 3) be prepared to wait. Service was great, they checked on us plenty of times for what was a packed restaurant. Food was your nothing special, but what you would expect as good breakfast food: eggs, pancakes, etc. The size of their portion is enormous. Highly recommended everyone ordering something different and having a "family style" meal. read more

Place is always busy for a reason. I really enjoy going to a basic diner because you know what you're getting. This place has pretty large portions, so prepare for leftovers. read more

Absolutely lip smacking huge breakfast in Vancouver. The place has stood tall for years and have served breakfast/lunch in the community for a long time. They been voted as one of the best bf in the area. It's quite crowded but spacious. Lot of parking space as well. Do try it out read more

Carol's Corner is a namesake in Vancouver! Large portions, low cost, friendly staff. I tried the cinnamon roll for the first time, and admittedly was disappointed. It was much better after I took it home and reheated it in the microwave. read more

Such a grave disappointment. I have come to Carol's for decades but after being gone for a few years their quality has dropped drastically. The corned beef hash, which I always love so much was all dried out and not the succulent moistness that it used to be. Sad day The other weird thing was a cook in the kitchen and a customer at the counter carrying on a loud conversation through the pass. Loud and disrespectful of the other dinners. read more

After leaving a review a couple of weeks ago I decided to return to see if the owners pay attention to their customers feedback. Apparently not since the same grease build up was on the wall in the kitchen in direct view of anyone sitting at the counter. While the food and service is quite good, the attention to cleanliness is not which is disappointing. read more

Service was great, especially on a busy Sunday morning. Food portions are wild! But everything was delicious, especially the bacon. And the homemade corned beef was out of this world! Highly recommended but steer clear of the coffee. Juice was great, though! read more

Since my family has discovered this spot, it has become our favorite because it's honest food and you get multiple meals out of it. When we get omelettes it feeds the person for a week. lol. The last time I was there I decided to finally try something new. I got a BLT lunch w onions rings. Lemme tell ya!! The bacon was cooked perfectly crispy (they asked preference). The onion rings were perfection. Not overly greasy. My family stole a few. lol don't be scared to venture out. So far everything has been great. Service is always amazing. We often sit with Sharon and Kelly. Both are great! read more

Great customer service, plenty sitting room, not too loud, and large portions. However, I think they could use a little more seasoning on their food. I had the biscuits and gravy breakfast plate and a fruit bowl. My nephew had the Mikey Burger and it was huge! He loved it. read more

I ate breakfast here on Sunday 2/23/25 I had the ham and egg scrambled and because I'm on the Carnivore Diet I substituted the hashbrowns and toast for cottage cheese. When the food arrived it was served on a huge platter. It was a large portion of food. It tasted great. I will definitely recommend this place to anyone and will be back again in the future. read more

I love Carol's Corner. We always get the Carol's omelet. A half omelet is plenty for 2 people but we always get a whole one because it reheats beautifully and we can get a couple more meals. The quality of ingredients is top notch. The servers are always so nice. They also are efficient and prompt with refills and anything else we need. There's a reason that Carol's Corner has been going strong for decades. read more

What a hidden gem! Well maybe not so hidden because it was PACKED. Even though it was busy we still got seated in under 20 min at the bar. I got the CC hash HALF order, and it was huge. I can't imagine what the full order is like. It had a perfect ratio of ham, peppers, onions, and hashbrowns. The cheese melted while you were eating which was so good. And their country gravy is amazing. My fiance got the country fried steak with no complaints. We sat in front of the kitchen which had us staring at all the food. Wish our stomachs were bigger so we could try more! Their cinammon rolls, milkshakes, and burgers looked amazing. All the staff was nice and gave it that homey feel. read more

I have been driving by Carol's for a couple years taking my grandkids to school. There's always a long line out the door, so I never wanted to wait. But today, my wife had a breakfast urge, there was no line so it was our chance. First mental note, don't go unless you are hungry. They provided some of the largest portions of quality food I've ever seen. I had the 1/2 order sausage, mushroom and cheese omelet. The 1/2 order is a 3 egg omelet. It was huge, loaded with sausage chunks and mushrooms. This omelet could have fed my entire family. I also had the hash browns and ordered them extra crispy. They were served perfectly. The side of sourdough toast was also great. My wife had scrambled eggs, bacon, and biscuits with gravy. The bacon was thick country boy slices, again no skimping. It was a great meal. We also had a side large pancake, wanting to test a variety of items. Again, a huge pancake that could have been a standalone meal. We asked the waitress if there was anything special we should try. She suggested the homemade cinnamon roll. We took that to go. The cinnamon roll was a monster. It was after dinner dessert and fed the entire family. The grandkids loved it! The service was great and the ambiance made you feel right at home. It was a great meal and a location I'd recommend. Just remember, you can get a couple extra plates and eat off one dish. read more

Good food, super fast, good service. Totally an old school diner feel. Portions are huge. Worth the money as you have leftovers!

Best place ever! So yummy! If you're not there early weekends, waiting in line is well worth it.

Carol's is a classic "greasy spoon" local diner. Big, sometimes HUGE portions of food depending on what you order. You aren't gonna get 5 star restaurant service here, but you shouldn't be expecting that in the first place. The food is always pretty darn good, and you definitely won't go hungry. *Pro tip- Order your hashbrowns extra crispy or they will come out pretty soft. read more

In from Phoenix. This was a great find. Home cooked breakfast, portions are HUGE! Like 3 meals in 1. Try the local hot sauces(from Phx, remember). Our server has been there 28 yrs - that's a telling sign of a good restaurant. Biscuits and gravy, homemade corned beef hash - all the comfort foods. Thank you for a great meal! read more

I just finally revisited this place for my first time in over 10 years. I'm happy to confirm that the food -- and portions -- are just as impressive as I remembered. Food comes out fast, service is warm and friendly. The prices are steep, but that's a widespread issue. I recommend if you're looking for an old school greasy spoon diner. Just don't expect anything fancy! read more

Wow, my friend recommended coming here for breakfast and this place is spot on as far as the food goes. Do not come here if you don't like large portions of down home goodness. The corn bread hash was great full of good corned beef and tasty. I did get a side of gravy to further indulge which I would recommend because the gravy is bomb too. The servers are great which is important because this place is slammed. Expect to stand in line for a bit to get in after you find a parking spot that is. This is one busy place that you should definitely go to read more

I was in the area and decided to try something different. I did my search on yelp to find a place to go. I ordered the country fried steak with a side of homemade hash. The CFS was good. Nothing special for me but it was good. The has browns we good. Crispy on the outside but soft in the middle. And a very generous portion. I can not eat eggs so I asked if they had egg whites to substitute. The answer was no. They should have asked if I would like fresh fruit or something but they didn't. The homemade hash was not very good. The beef was just shredded beef to me. Nothing corned about it. It was just beef and diced potatoes. No spices to notice. No flavor. The server was nice as could be. Food was fast They were voted best breakfast in Clark County. They have some living up to do to hold that title. read more

We had some friends recommend Carol's to us & the first thing they mentioned was their large portions. When we arrived around 9, there was line, no surprise. There is no sign in, you just get in line & wait for the next available table. We honestly didn't wait that long, but make sure you're dressed warm enough in case the line is long to where you have wait outside. Just know that there are half portions on a lot of the items. I even saw one customer ask their server if that was a half portion & she confirmed. So even half might be a lot. I'm a small eater, so I wanted something small. We went with the ham breakfast sandwich with hash browns, daily special number one, a side order of sausage links, & a half order of french toast. Yes, that was alot & we did end up taking some home. The sandwich was good & hashbrowns were nice & crisp on the top. The biscuit that came with the biscuits & gravy was more on the cakey side, which my boyfriend really enjoyed. Service was good & quick. There was something very comforting about Carol's. It had that homey feel. We'll be back. read more

This local favorite continues to hit it out of the park. An atmosphere that resembles any other country diner. This cafe is full of large plates of delicious comfort food. On this visit we enjoyed that ginormous frosted cinnamon roll, chicken fried steak and a chili omelette. Everything was delicious and the service is spot on. Like we were family at home for a big weekend breakfast. This is a fantastic family owned business that we hope stays around for a long time. read more

We decided to check this place out since it's so close to the house and the reviews are so yum. It's easily accessible from 78th or St. John and has a large parking lot to accommodate its large fan base. They don't put your name on a list (at least on Saturday afternoons) and you just stand in line. We didn't know that and the people who were already standing there were a little pissed that we didn't. They seated us within a few minutes, but they didn't really need to rush because it took 30+ minutes for them to get us the order. I got a plain burger with tots and he got the hamburger steak with hash browns, scrambled eggs and a side of over easy eggs. Once we got the food, we were underwhelmed by the quality of their cooking. Everything could have used seasoning and salting the hell out of it doesn't count. The prices were on par with the times. (Read: High) A 6 egg Denver omelet will run you over $20. Our two dishes came to $38 without tip. Based on our experience, I can only conclude that people crowd here for the location and the portions which are generous. Just keep in mind that it's generous portions of ambivalent food and you'll probably be in line with the other reviewers here. Just not us. read more

Best bacon anywhere Food is always hot , served really quick. The staff is so great and friendly. It's a run down diner with classic diner food. The breakfasts are all The bomb and enough to share for days. The club sandwich is amazing. And they have the best French fries. It's so busy you know the food is fresh and not sitting around. Worth the visit for the bacon. read more

Yea this is on the corner and you cannot make uturn. The place is bigger then it looks from the street they have a lot of seating inside. We had country fried steak which was good they give you a lot of hash browns. And enough gravy. Which was really good. I had bacon and eggs over easy eggs which were over cooked I like my eggs runny but a lot of restaurants don't get it the I like anyways.. but the bacon they give you like 6 pieces of bacon that is meaty and cooked just right with a little crunchy. This place is really clean and has a lot of seating they have a whole backside with tables. The staff here is super friendly and waitress is always filling up you drinks. read more

I go to Carol's Corner Cafe for the last 15 years and the food and service have always been good.

Everything is really good about Carol's. The best part are the wait staff and the cooks! Some of they have been there for many years. They make really good food, serve it up with a friendly smile and know their regulars by name. It's well worth a least one visit to see for yourself. Bring a really big appetite or ask for a to go container you will probably have leftovers. The portions are oversized! The decor is basic American everyday diner. Nothing fancy here. You could find a farmer, a banker, a retired couple out for a meal, a couple taking the young kids out for a corn dog off the kids menu sitting at a table near you. read more

If what you're after is a large portion, you'll find that here. After all, Carol's Corner has been around a very long time and is pretty much an institution by now. But a large portion of poor quality food isn't worth the trip, much less the cost. I ordered eggs Benedict and coffee. The coffee was awful and the hollandaise was some kind of thick packaged goo. Fresh hollandaise takes less than a minute to make, even for a first-timer. What a huge disappointment. The hash browns were also gross, chemically tasting bad -- like frozen hashbrowns cooked in cheap cooking oil. I can understand why this place stayed in business for a long time when it was the only game in town, but it's no better than a Denny's, and maybe worse. On the positive side, the wait staff is excellent. Friendly, efficient, experienced. Too bad the food is terrible. read more
