Dadsypop's has been a staple in Hatboro since 1987. They serve good, quality breakfast and lunch, with great portions at a great price. They recently had a turnover in ownership and the new owners welcome you as if you're guests in their home. The decor has not changed, with its old school diner look that the regulars love. Service is great and although the place is small, they are quick and efficient, while never felling rushed. read more

If you sit at the counter you get better service from what I could see. If you say something took a long time you get yelled at.

Great spot for breakfast, brunch or lunch. Staff is super friendly, I really enjoyed my Cheesesteak! Perfect diner style cheesesteak and great soups, thanks again! read more

I hate to give a low review because the waitresses and staff were very nice and friendly but the cleanliness and food were just not up to par. I saw an Instagram post that spoke very highly of this place so I decided to check it out and was very disappointed starting as soon as I sat down and there were ants crawling all over the booth and table , the food also was not very good especially for the prices. read more

Bring cash!! There is an ATM in the entry, in case you forget. This classic diner fills up on the weekend, we had to wait about 10-15 for a table for 4. There's a bartop as well as a bunch of tables. Once we were seated, we got cups of coffee right away and placed our orders. The service was friendly and prompt. This place is an incredible value. For less than $8, I got two massive flapjacks, two eggs, two slices of bacon and two sausages. I couldn't finish all of it but I gave it my best try! Bottom line: great greasy spoon diner. read more

Came here for breakfast one weekend morning with my date. I wanted to try this diner ever since my sister had mentioned she had gone with her bf and they really loved the food. Plus I saw the Yelp reviews that all said this place was the place to try. Ended up going in the afternoon and it wasn't too bad as far as crowds. There were a few tables open. It was a bit confusing as to whether you had to seat yourself or not, so me and my date just stood at the door looking goofy as hell- waiting for someone to acknowledge us. Once the waitress was free, she told us to sit down at the only open booth they had. Once seated, we had a chance to look over the menu and I decided on the french toast and ordered blueberries to go with them. I thought maybe the blueberries would be on top, but it came with a side of hot blueberries. My date ended up getting the eggs with scrapple, the scrapple was huge! and looked very tasty. Although the food was great and the service was friendly and service with a smile, I didn't like the fact that they didn't take debit/credit cards. It was a inconvenience for me, even though they had an ATM outside in the waiting area of the restaurant. To get money out, I was charged about 3 dollars plus whatever my bank was going to charge me,just to pay for my $24 dollar check. They need to update this and get with the times. read more

This is an oldies but goodie! The burgers are fresh and home-fries just like making them at home. It's a small location but consistent with their food and prices are reasonable. This location was actually featured on Dinners, Drive-Ins & Dives, if you watch the food channel. Guy raved over it and rightly so, it's one of my favorite places that contributed to my weight gain; that's why I stopped going. read more

I've been here a few times, and the wait is worth it. The food is fresh and plentiful. You can add maple syrup instead of using Mrs. Butterworth's, but there is an up-charge. read more

I used to like it better. My last experience wasn't the best. Poached eggs were ugly, never got my cranberry sauce, host-dude... c'mon, guy. I still love the retro vibe and the coffee cup display, the menu has good options. I'll give it another shot, maybe it was an off-hours fluke. Server was very nice, so that's cool. read more

This place is a gem! You have to stop if passing through Hatboro. I had the chipped beef on toast with crispy home fries...did not disappoint! The coffee was the best diner coffee I have ever had!The waitress was super sweet and the service does make you feel relaxed...the general feel is a typical old style diner! read more

My boyfriend has been trying to get me to come to the place for months, and I was not disappointed. DaddyPops's is the TINEST diner I've ever been in, with twenty booths squished into an old converted train car. What they lack in space they make up for in flavor and quirkiness. The chairs at the bar are an assortment of barber chairs and other cools sits, and the wall behind the counter is lined with different coffee mugs from regulars. We didn't wait too too long when we got there, but I can image the line could get out the door super quick (especially when old ladies like the ones we encountered while we were there who like to take up an entire 4 person table to themselves instead of sitting at the bar or waiting for a two top, like are you kidding me? How inconsiderate, but I digress) We got the "3 Flapjacks with two eggs and Scrapple" meal for, get this $8.25! Everything on the menu was scary cheap, so cheap that I honestly wondered about how good any of it was going to taste. The Pancakes tasted like they were made with the essence of fall (that good ole cinnamon) and were so fluffy they were basically pillows. Their homemade scrapple was great too. According to Triple D (with Guy Fieri) this joint goes through approximately 200 lbs of potatoes for their home fries and I can see why. Any place that actually asks you if you want them with or without onions, is golden in my book (I personally hate onions, and it's always nice not to be a pain to ask for them without). read more

This is a local gem for breakfast. Any type of breakfast you want they have. The food is very good. Service is great. It's rather a small diner so there is usually a wait to get in but it's well worth it. Very nostalgic 50's diner. And who gave their approval from Diners, Drive-in's, and Dives? Your right! Guy Ferretti. His signed photo is on their wall. Give it a try! read more

Brunch is always a great treat My wife loves eggs Benedict and thinks theirs are the best The thick cut bacon is amazing Love the pancakes ​and omelets read more

I will never understand how a place of business can treat customers so badly. Husband and I rarely complain and are fairly easy to please, but this place has the worst customer service! After waiting in the doorway for about 10 minutes a couple walked in behind us and informed us that it is seat yourself. No sign that tells you this information. The server walked past us at least a dozen times ignoring us. A cook came from the back to clean a table. As he walked past us, I said excuse me sir twice to which he ignored me. So we seat ourselves in a booth. Then the ignoring us continued. Server never came over. Instead she went over to the couple that was behind us to get their order. We never even saw a menu. After 15 minutes of being ignored and getting eye rolls whenever the server looked our way, we left. As stated before, we are easy to please. We truly understand the staff shortage most places are facing. But I will never understand treating paying customers as if they are the enemy! read more

This morning was our first time at this fun, friendly and bustling diner. Based on the scrumptious food, extraordinarily welcoming staff and happy atmosphere, this will not be our last visit. Give yourself a treat and stop in! read more

So, I have mixed feelings writing this review...I've really enjoyed this classic, cool, little diner in the past.with its old school look, cool juke box and patrons coffee mugs hanging behind the counter. The food has always been good, simple, hot and the coffee steamy....A go to place for breakfast and made me and my gf smile...UNTIL... Well, my girl and me are easy to please and leave a nice tip...on our last trip there, we were treated like the poor relatives...no menu, no water, no coffee...after quite a long wait our waitress apologized and brought us some cold eggs and toast with attitude When we left, we put our cash down on the table with a hefty 35% tip and we left feeling a tad ugh The door swung open to the diner and a waitress called out to us, "Excuse me, you forgot to pay!" With a snarl...we explained that we left it on the table... So, what can I say? Eventually, as they say on Game of Thrones, "Winter is coming." Well, winter came and the season for Daddypops is done read more

I forgot one thing in my previous review because I was actually treated to my meal here. Although I loved the food, Daddypops is cash only! That's a complete disgrace in 2019. They are sneakily making extra money from the fee for the ATM on premises. But more importantly they are inconveniencing the customers. I have to take away a star for that! read more

Stars are for one of the waitresses/hostess we had was super nice and apologetic and the decor was cool. I hadn't been here in a long time and thought it would be a cool place to try again. Mistake. The place is small, we had to awkwardly stand in the door area until someone finally came from the back to greet us. Yes, it is small and service can only pump out so much food at once however you can at least touch your tables more. Coffee was gross, pancakes tasted stale, had to ask multiple times for cold crunchy toast. Walking in I saw the ATM and was worried they didn't take cards but was assured they did. Fast forward to check out and I get told there's a charge for every $10 they have to ring up and you can't even put tips on the card so I try the ATM and the buttons stick and it wasn't working properly so I got up charged on the bill despite being forced to pay with a card. There are other cool old places to eat at for breakfast, save this place for maybe dessert. read more

Had a very bad experience with the server will never go again cold toast no yolk in the eggs and nobody cares

My party of here stopped here for breakfast around 12:30 PM on Sunday. Unfortunately, we weren't the only people with this idea. When we arrived the small waiting area was filled with about 12 people waiting to be seated. Normally, I don't mind a wait but there was limited space inside and it was raining heavily outside. Luckily for us a couple of bar seats opened up after waiting about 15 minutes for a table. It's a very small diner that's been around since the 80's. There are several booths and seating at the front counter. There is no parking lot but there is street parking available which is free on weekends. The staff is friendly many of which have worked there for years. Food was served quickly and too my liking. I ordered a basic egg, home fries and bacon combo which was priced around $7.00. My bf ordered the banana walnut pancakes with eggs and sausage. The pancakes were loaded with freshly sliced bananas and walnuts and were my favorite part of the meal. I do recommend this place, however with the limited seating I would suggest coming early or on off peak times to avoid a wait. read more

Daddypop's building itself is a classic dining car, inside and out: It's beautiful. Unfortunately, everything else about this place is disappointing. Three of us visited for lunch when the diner was not busy. Universally, we decided this was a 2 star experience. Service was spotty: Our waitress disappeared halfway through out meal. Also, she asked whether I wanted a drink refill (yes, please) which never materialized. The food was atrocious. I ordered a turkey platter: The turkey itself and the gravy were pretty good, if small, but the bread they were served on tasted like it had either been cooked on a dirty griddle or in old cooking oil. Another member of our party had a hot ham sandwich and felt the ham was similarly "off". Also, we were informed after our meal that Daddypops charges extra for credit card purchases. read more

I stopped in real quick after reading the reviews on Yelp and I waited for a minute before being told I'll be with you. I was looking for food for breakfast for my husband and I and the reviews looked good. The waiter finally took my order and it took awhile for the food to be done. I took my order to go. When I got back to my husband and we opened the food food everything smelled great! The food was so delicious that I'll ignore the wait!!! read more

used to be good, not so much anymore bad service, cold food and juices where watered down read more

Really bad nasty food. Not the same. What happened to the original daddy pops?? They use to have a great cook.

The current crop of parolees working the kitchen are serving borderline inedible food. My 5 year old granddaughter makes better pancakes. And as for their special's, someone should make sure that the person responsible for making it knows how to make it. I'd rather eat a breakfast sandwich from Wawa. read more

Daddypops is by far my favorite diner in the area! Quick and friendly service, great prices, and amazing food. It actually was featured on Diners, Drive In's, and Dives for their scrapple (which I have never had), but almost everything there is TV worthy! The decor is probably my favorite part of this place - it is so homey with vintage pieces around the restaurant and regular's mugs hung up on the wall. They are cash only and often have a wait. It is a very small place and you may have to stand in the vestibule for a bit before a table frees up (or just opt for a bar seat). But I promise you it will be worth it! read more

Daddypops - Two Eggs, Grits, and Pork Roll - Diners Near Me - Hatboro, Pennsylvania

If mid-20th Century stainless steel railroad car diners are your thing, then Daddypops on York Road in Hatboro, PA, is a "must see" stop on your diner tour. It sits on the main street in town, all shiny and bright over all these years. The granite counter is split by the kitchen entrance, with a half dozen spinners on each side, and creatively anchored at each elbow by an old barber's chair. The outer wall is all booths and large windows. The joint oozes Americana charm. The menu consists of one sheet, with breakfast on one side, and lunch on the other. Best to plan early meals, as the hours are only from 6:00 AM to 2:00 PM. I sat at the far left counter where I could see the entire dining area. The two women working the floor were friendly, but respectful - no one called me, "Honey." They were efficient, and ever ready with a hot coffee pour. I sipped my java while awaiting the arrival of my french toast. The three bisected thick slices of brioche were served on an oval plate that barely contained its load. Side dish full of butter cups and Kraft syrup was close at hand for proper doctoring. I could see that the bread had bathed in the egg/vanilla mix long enough to soak through to the core. The surface was nicely caramelized with enough crispy edges to provide the texture I like. Allowing time for the butter to melt and run, and the syrup to absorb, I was quickly ready to dive in. It was very good. No dry spots. No eggy extrusions. No scorch marks. Nothing fancy at this traditional meal hall. Just perfectly finished egg toast fry that was a pleasure to consume. Old fashioned, just like the house it was made in. read more

This was my second visit to daddypops. I remember the stuffed French toast being to die for so my friend and I returned. Getting a seat here is madness. People are aggressive and inconsiderate. It's a battle. Once the battle is won, due to limited seating the staff seem to almost rush you so much so that your order can and will be heard incorrectly. After an hour of a fight for a table and finally sitting down to order we ended up ordering eggs and hash as well as what I came here to relive, the stuffed French toast. When everything finally came out I had overcooked eggs, burnt hash, and NO STUFFED French toast. just regular. When I sent my French toast back (i forced down that not ideal eggs and hash) I didn't order what returned was a distasteful, slopped together, sad excuse for a dish. Chunks of cream cheese with half frozen strawberries.. and it was cold. I was so disappointed as I drove over an hour just to starve waiting for a table and end up disappointed. read more

1st timer and will definitely be back! Daddypops is TINY. I can't imagine what the wait gets like on the weekends. But for us, we came on a Tuesday morning and sat right away anywhere we wanted. Our waitress immediately greeted us and offered coffee and water. The menu is a front and back page offering breakfast on the front and lunch on the back. They had plenty of breakfast options, but I just went with a sausage omelet and home fries. It was fantastic! A fairly large portion and you can't beat the price! For two of us + OJ's our check was $23. My girlfriend ordered French toast and she loved hers as well! She ordered a side of blueberries too and they were awesome. Highly recommend this place, but maybe just during the week! They close at 2PM. read more

OMG!!! Today, 9/1/2024, was my 1st time eating here at Daddy Pops Diner in Hatboro, Pennsylvania. I am so Grateful that I found this Diner because 1) the Service is Outstanding!! Claudia was my Waitress and she was so Kind, Friendly, Helpful and most of all very Patient. I say this because being my 1st time here I had a ton of questions about all the different items on their Menu, and there were Soooo Many Yummy Choices to choose from and I had a hard time making a decision. I ended up ordering a Veggie Lover's Omelette with Homefries with Onions and a toasted plain bagel with cream cheese to start. Then I ended up ordering a side of sausage links, too. Which brings me to reason number 2) why this Diner is the BEST DINER I EVER ATE AT!!! MY ENTIRE MEAL WAS ABSOLUTELY DELICIOUS AND THE Cook, Butch, made my ENTIRE ORDER CORRECTLY, JUST THE WAY I WANTED EVERYTHING COOKED!! Reason Number 3) the Customers here are also very kind and friendly and mostly regulars for at least 15 or more years - that in itself speaks volumes. PLUS, after eating here today, I, too, will be a NEW REGULAR! So if you are Looking for Delicious Food and Awesome Service in Hatboro, Pennsylvania You WILL NOT BE DISAPPOINTED WHEN YOU COME HERE TO EAT AT DADDY POPS DINER! read more

There is nothing to dislike here. Even if you have the worst meal of your life (which is as likely as a ninety-degree day in Minnesota in January), your entire bill will probably be less than the cost of a martini at some bars in New York. The kielbasa is really, really good. The pancakes and french toast are standard and will fill you up. Eat your breakfast, but don't finish it all if you can't save space for FRIED OREOS. What is not to appreciate about fried Oreos? Yes, you may ruin your diet, but you know what? You could also get hit by a meteor while leaving the restaurant. Live a little, and give the fried Oreos a try! Regardless of your age, color, creed, religion, or political affiliation...Daddypops brings the best of America and serves it to you with a side of toast. Come hungry, leave happy...your belly and your wallet with both thank you. read more

So I've heard nothing but good things about Daddypops. Today was the day we ventured in. We left pleased but also somewhat disappointed. We got there around 9:30 and it was pretty quiet. We were first timers and didn't know you seat yourself, there weren't any signs stating this either. Second they are cash only, again I didn't see any signs posted for that either. Costs us a $1.75 for the atm. The food is priced very well, almost too cheap. I ordered the Daddypop duo which was French toast, 2 eggs, 2 sausage and 2 bacon. My wife ordered the daddypop special which was 2 eggs, home fries, toast, juice and coffee. The French toast was on point! Some of the best I've had. The eggs were eggs, it's hard to mess them up. The sausage was good and cooked well. The bacon on the other hand was paper thin and not crispy. The home fries were extremely undercooked and almost raw and the rye toast was toasted a bit too dark. The server said she would replace the toast but we told her not to worry about it. Even with all of the inconsistent food it was a nice experience. What was cooked well was good. The service was good and she was friendly. The diner is extremely old and cool it's like taking a step back in time. It's a very small place and parking could be an issue. We parked at a meter. I can't imagine what it looks like on a weekend. With a few tweaks this could be a great diner. It's 2018 please take cards. 3 stars read more

Daddypops is wonderful. Great atmosphere, excellent food and the staff was extremely nice. Will definitely be going back.

I honestly still have no clue what scrapple is but man is it delicious. The wait staff was super friendly and inviting. I went in around noon and it wasn't crowded at all. I got two eggs, the scrapple fried (soooo good and interesting), and well done home fries with onions. Excellent experience alll the way around. Now that I know Guy Ferrari has been here I'm going to watch the episode to get a better understanding of how that scrapple is so good. PS. They have an Emmy from a PBS show they host. This place is so cool. read more
