Love this little place! We are here from California staying at Foxwoods and just wanted something more affordable for breakfast, and this place did not disappoint. All the food was great and the service was great, especially considering there was only one waitress and one person cooking. Hope to make it back out here again sometime! read more

Food A++ & can't breat the price!!Service was spot on.. The Saturday we went, they were short staffed, so wait times and ordering can be an issue..but as long as your patient and understanding, the food is worth it!!I had the spinach cheese, omelet with potatoes (yumms)!!! read more

I had an amazing experiencing with the waitress, I believe her name was 'Amy'. She was very outgoing, and very friendly. I loved how to make sure to ask lot of questions about my order so that way I won't be disappointed when I received my food; It was absolutely delicious and better than some of the other diners that I got to experience. I rate this place a 5/5, as it was an amazing and wonderful experience that I got to experience with my partner. read more

After an extremely disappointing breakfast at Foxwoods the day before we decided to try Dean's on our way home based on its Yelp rating. Let me tell you, 4.4 stars does not do this place and this crew justice. Everything about the experience delivered aces! From perfectly cooked Eggs Benedict's to fluffy French Toast to a freshly toasted blueberry muffin, this breakfast was one we'll be remembering for a while. Natalie & Taylor are part of superstar team that took great care of us, providing A+ service and making us feel as welcomed as the locals. Dean's Corner Diner is exactly what you need when you're looking for quaint ambiance, amazing service, and breakfast food that will leave you happy and fulfilled in all the best ways. Thank you and we will be back! read more

Loved it!!! The food was delicious ! I love small town diners and this was great!! The young girl who waited on us probably wanted to enjoy her Sunday, but she was fine read more

Wha a great spot! Our server, Josh, was excellent, food was great! Best biscuit with gravy I've had this far north!

Excellent service Excellent food Great hometown atmosphere Good prices A definite recommendation is you are in the area read more

Truly, one of my best out-of-the-way experiences I have ever had. We would recommended to this place by a person we picked up an item from in Griswold Connecticut. It was all they said, and then some the food was cooked fresh. Everything was made in house except for the hollandaise sauce and their corn beef hash. Everything we got was absolutely delicious as you can see it's big portions that you cannot finish in the restaurant and you must take home which, even though we are at least an hour or so from home we are still taking him home and our cooler. The servers. Name was Sam. She was wonderful. She was very gracious to us. She explained every single thing on the menu that we could not understand what it was. I was very impressed that they have some different and out-of-the-way things at most of the restaurants don't have like they have homemade crêpes they have loaded pancakes or French toast with bacon and apples, etc.. They also have homemade sausage gravy any of these things whatsoever. One thing my thought was wonderful was the fact that they also carry homemade country fried steak for breakfast so pretty much the next time we come this way we will probably take a detour and stop here for breakfast or lunch. They are only open till 2 PM. Monday through Friday I'm so glad they were open today as we could not find any place else after spending our anniversary at the casino for breakfast but they serve breakfast and lunch right up until 2 o'clock. It's definitely an Al A spot but let me tell you something it's definitely worth driving that little bit out of the way for the breakfast that we got today. I can't imagine what much would be like if we decide to try the lunch. Thank you to all the staff and the chef etc. for a fantastic meal and a fantastic experience. read more

Stacy was our server and she was awesome! efficient and funny! We will definitely come back and request her

I didn't get one picture, but the food here was phenomenal. I had a pastrami and egg sandwich, that was off the chart awesome. A perfect portion for me, the service was fantastic half a mile. The staff was very friendly. We set up at the counter and it was like an small town. Everybody knows everybody, cute little breakfast place. My husband had French toast with bacon and two eggs and bourbon maple syrup on top. He ate every last bite. So good, we will be back! read more

First time visiting. The food was good. The service was good. The atmosphere is very "local" which is nice. My only complaint are the hidden charges. I did not notice on the menu or any signs that stated these additional fees- I don't think there are any notifications. They charge an "inflation fee" of about 3% AND another fee if you pay with a credit card. Of course you don't find out until after you have eaten and get the bill. It's a bit underhanded, shadyand deceptive. Just raise the price of the food to compensate and don't charge EXTRA fees. It's the principal of it. So until they change their deceptive fees, I won't go back. read more

Dean's corner breakfast club; breakfast was fast, lots choices, great service and the food was yummy. I must say one thing, a patron on her cell phone talking super loud was annoying and rude. Great job, definitely come back again, Two thumbs up. read more

Small but refreshing breakfast joint. Our server was excellent and took great care of us. The food was not expensive yet was rich with flavor. I would definitely come here again if I'm ever around the area! read more

Crepes and grits. 5 stars. Super friendly staff too. When you order delivery Thru one of the apps, the food arrives piping hot still (even though I'm 25 minutes away. Sorcery!) love it! read more

We stopped in traveling off highway as the reviews looked good. Food was good but they forgot one of the eggs on the 3 egg 3 meat platter. Waitress was unfriendly. i felt if you weren't a townie she wouldn't bother with you. We were the only people in there as it was 11am When my husband asked for a warm up on his coffee she came over but barely put in a sip. We will not be recommending this restaurant to my travel group read more

Sometimes all you want is a giant buffalo chicken wrap overflowing with lettuce, tomato and blue cheese. Luckily, Dean's Corner delivers on this and more. I was throwing an event out in this neck of the woods last month so I came here for a planning meeting over the summer. I *love* diner menus more than anything, so I was psyched to see an impressive lineup of breakfast dishes, wraps, subs, burgers, sides, and more. If you're in the mood for a quality but no-frills lunch in a pretty low key atmosphere, definitely check out Dean's. I am rarely in this area of the state but it's good to have a standby for lunch next time I'm out this way. read more

Decent food. I haven't dined in there in years, but the recent delivery, although pretty slow the Steak, Egg and Cheese Sandwich on a Pretzel Bun was juicy and flavorful. Would highly recommend that. But their juice is small for their "large" and a bit overpriced for Orange Juice. read more

Hot coffee, great breakfast and awesome wait staff! Home fries were some of the best I've ever had

Whenever we go to the casinos and are heading home the next morning we also stop here! They are always busy but so worth it even if you have to wait! Fresh food, the servers are always welcoming, and fair prices! Highly recommend this place if you are in the area. read more

If you want a good breakfast this is the place. Healthy portions, delicious food! A great way to start the day is a hearty breakfast at Dean's Corner. read more

A great place for breakfast or lunch. Traditional diner food prepared perfectly. Great breakfast specials and hearty lunches.

I have ordered from Deans twice and both time items were left off and eggs were so over cooked they were inedible. Not worth it. I am sure there are restaurant's that care about making good food. Dean's isn't one of them. read more

This is a great little local restaurant- love the breakfast! The staff are nice relaxed and the atmosphere is good

The biscuits and gravy were fantastic! The gravy was creamy and rich. I would've preferred the sausage patty well done, but that didn't detract from the experience. The lobster omelette was a first for me. I loved it! I will be returning soon. read more

Hands down my favorite breakfast place in the area. The staff is very friendly and the breakfast is on point! By far the best omelette I have had in this area. I LOVE my western omelettes when the ham is not fatty and does not have the skin on it. That ham grossed me out personally. Their ham they used is not that style thank goodness! Pure yumminess, fat less and skinless . Love love love this place read more

Dean's onion rings are so scrumptious, my husband gets them with his breakfast. Our server today, Alana, made the tastiest hot coffee/hot chocolate combo for me. There is nothing we don't like about Dean's, except the fact that we can't eat here every meal, every day. We'll be back next weekend!! read more

Love their food!! I highly recommend this place. Best breakfast spot I've been to in a long time.

Solid little diner. Had a giant chef salad for lunch that I could not finish. Fresh ingredients though. One of the guys in my group got the blt and onion rings. He was not complaining about the meal. Real handmade onion rings too. I hear breakfast is great, maybe next time. read more

Great little corner diner! Stopped here coming back from casino. Wanted a good omelette and coffee. Was very pleased and would absolutely come back again. Waitress Sam was great! read more

I find this to be the premier breakfast spot in the area. I initially went here due to the high Yelp scores and have gone back many times since because it earns them. While there aren't a lot of seats in this place, nor is there much parking (any?) as it relies on the little bit of sidewalk in front to be clear to be able to come here, the service is fast, and friendly, as is the food. I personally love their country fried steak and the variety of home fries that is grilled with onions. To top it off, the prices are fairly reasonable as well, so it won't break the bank to give this place a visit for yourself, which I highly recommend. read more

This was disappointing. The reviews led me to believe this would be worth my Sunday morning visit (every Sunday I venture to a new place!). When I came in I was told to grab whatever seat I wanted, since I'm alone I took a seat at the bench. I'm not sure what I did wrong but the waitress didn't exactly give me the warm fuzzies. Coffee was immediate which is nice, and before I could even pick up the menu I got a somewhat inpatient "do you need more time?" Um yes it's been 45 seconds and I haven't even touched the menu that's still sitting in the menu holder. So I tried to pick something out quickly because she seemed busy. Then I had to wait another 15 minutes to give my order. A little odd, but ok. I ordered eggs Benedict and chose grilled home fries with onions. I waited about another 20 minutes for the food... not a terrible wait but it felt like 45 mins. When I got my breakfast the food was burnt and cold. The English muffin was burnt to a crisp on the edges and the hollandaise sauce and home fries were barely luke warm. Maybe I'm used to farm to table but the muffin tasted like it was frozen and thawed (then burnt) and the hollandaise was not what I'm used to - really yellow and a bit runny. I didn't even finish half of my meal. A gentleman came in after I ordered, sat down next to me, had his coffee and order taken, and food by the time I walked out the door. So it's not everyone that has this experience. I won't be back, read more

Some times they are busy and the waitresses are a little occupied with their friends but always good food

Took a motorcycle ride from MA to CT for a breakfast run. Found Deans Corner Restaurant listed on Yelp so we went for it. The restaurant was clean with plenty of tables and a small sit down counter. Our server Micaela greeted us with a nice smile and was happy. We each had omelettes the house omelette and Tomato bacon and cheese both very good They offer traditional tasty home fries with onions or a small fried potato style choice Coffee refills were only a smile away. I definitely would recommend that you not miss stopping here for breakfast, cause that's what we had. Nice job Deans Corner - we will be back ! read more

Friendly staff. Clean place. Omelets and grilled home fries are delicious! Happy to support this local diner.

Ordered takeout. I got a bacon egg & cheese on a hard roll and another breakfast sandwich but with sausage. Both were excellent and hot! The waitress who took my order and cashed me out was very nice! I would come back again for takeout or to sit and eat! read more

Always great service and a delicious breakfast! Love Dean's on Saturday morning and the small town feel.

Dean's Corner lived up to their reviews. A little friendly diner in a convenient spot with good food. The staff was in love with my little girl, and she drank it up! The coffee was better than average along with the toast, and the home fries left little to be desired. My boys loved the pancakes, and the egg scramble was a refreshing alternative to the usual fare. Easily the best reason to go here is the attentive waitstaff. They were friendly, on point, and even handled letting people know that they were closed with grace. We will definitely return! read more

Wonderful!!!!! We stayed at Foxwoods to see Jerry Seinfeld last night and yelped to see where there would be a good breakfast place on the way home this morning. Dean's Corner came up. It is roughly a mile from 395, so not really out of the way. It was so delicious. In fact, I am still there, eating my breakfast and had to write a review immediately. I had a breakfast sandwich on a homemade biscuit with the deep fried home fries. So good. My husband had eggs sunny side, with bacon and toast. Also delicious. The coffee was excellent! The service was impeccable! Micaela was very pleasant, efficient and responsive to refilling our coffee, etc. For a Sunday morning (around 10am) it is busy, but we were still able sit immediately. The only negative is that it is so far from where we live! I would come here a lot if it wasn't 90 minutes away!! read more

Stopped in for breakfast and we were HUNGRY!!! Coffee four solid stars - fast service, really good wait staff and high quality, large servings! I had the shaved steak omelette with added jalapeños (3 egg) and it was delicious, and barely finished it - the home fries were crisp and flavorful. Ask for real butter here, they will default to margarine if you don't! My wife had the lobster omelette special (11.95 included coffee) and loved it! Love the Harley style shirts the servers wear, very good attitudes, and quick, attentive service - will be coming back! read more

Came here from the casinos with a group of 6 and couldn't have picked a better place. All the breakfast dishes were great - everyone was very happy. The bacon was really tasty and their home fries grilled with onions were a hit. read more
