My husband has fond memories of the Hi-Way Diner, as he went to school at UNL and visited on many a…read moremorning after late nights "studying" in college. We happened to be in the Lincoln area for an event, and he begged to visit the Hi-Way Diner again to relive those memories he cherishes. It was pretty early in the morning, so a breakfast stop did sound pretty appealing to me. We popped in and the interior is pretty cute, with vintage signs and items scattered throughout. The look of the building is a little worse for wear, I will say, with musty carpets, fluorescent lighting, and a faded smell of a building that has been standing a while (which this has) along with the delicious smells of the food cooking. Ignoring the smells and sights, we stood in line to get a table. It was a Sunday when we were there, so very busy obviously. We were seated at a booth, and perused the menu. Let me tell you right now now, you do NOT come here for health food. It's either very heavy meaty options, or sweet pancakes and waffles. Because of the aforementioned heaviness of the fare, my husband and I decided to split two entrees and share the sides. I chose the South Street Meatloaf, and it tasted just like my mom used to make, with a ketchupy brown sugar glaze. My better half chose the Chicken Fried Chicken, and it was ENORMOUS. For our sides, we had mashed potatoes and corn, and those were pretty standard - nothing to write home about. We packed most of our entrees and sides away to take home, because my husband said we had to try the pancakes too! He got the standard pancakes and doused them in butter and blueberry syrup. Can't go wrong there. I got the Magic Toast and chose the French Toast flavor. It was very well battered and came with some delicious syrup to top it with. Highly recommend trying anything from the Magic Toast menu. Hi-Way Diner is definitely a hole in the wall style eatery, but it's worth a stop in Lincoln if you're looking for a tasty breakfast at a pretty affordable price!

Unique take on a sweet burger, which I am personally a huge fan of. The sweet potato fries and tater tots take the crown here. Don't get me wrong, the fries were good.... But their tots are crispy and fluffy greatness, especially paired with the sauces. You order up at the counter, they give you a number and once the food is ready, they bring it to you. It's a smaller place, so wouldn't recommend it for groups larger than 6. Lots of take out orders and pretty fast service!

All of their food is made fresh and it's always delicious.

The whole crew came in and set up quickly to feed the hungry huskers. In just minutes two large spreads of meat, sides, and salads was laid out. The food itself was outstanding. The brisket was lined with a super flavorful and slightly spicy coating. The ribs were tender and also packed a little heat. Theyre house made sauces like hot and spicy packed a punch on the pulled chicken. The mac and cheese would surely be welcome at any cookout. Overall Aaron and his team did a fantastic job with a tall order, and I would recommend them to cater another large event again.

When we got the food, very little meat but tin of sauce. Squirted out. Flavor was not good. Place was ran down and was not clean. Not sure if this was bad neighborhood but that shouldn't be excuse.

So the price really isn't all that high due to the portions provided! I will be in town for 2 weeks, so I may even be going back again before going home to Oklahoma!

The burger was delicious, and massive. It was gigantic and covered in toppings, like Jelly Roll before he met Joe Rogan. This is a daaaaaaaaaang good burger y'all.
