I really wanted to like Nickles Diner because the staff were incredibly friendly and were honestly…read morethe highlight of our visit. Everyone we interacted with was kind, courteous, and tried to be helpful. Unfortunately, the food was very underwhelming. We ordered the burger with mac & cheese, a French dip sandwich, biscuits and gravy, chili cheese fries, zucchini fries, and drinks for two adults and two kids. None of us finished our meals. My son's mac & cheese had a pool of oil underneath it, the biscuits and gravy left a greasy film on the roof of our mouths, the cheese on the chili cheese fries tasted very artificial, and the zucchini fries were slimy. I also found a piece of brown paper in my food. I showed it to the staff, and they apologized. They told me they would remove the meal from the bill and even offered me a cinnamon roll for the inconvenience, which I initially accepted because I appreciated the gesture. However, when I went to pay, I realized they had only discounted the meal by half instead of removing it entirely. At that point, everything kind of fell apart for me. I no longer wanted the cinnamon roll because I was genuinely disappointed with the entire experience. I didn't argue about it because the staff had been very kind, it had already taken quite a while just to pay, and I needed to leave. Another surprise was the pricing. The menu made it seem like the meals came with a side, but we were charged separately for each one. The drinks were around $4 each, even for the kids. Our total came to $73 before the partial discount and was still about $65 afterward. I understand this isn't meant to be gourmet dining, and I'm usually perfectly happy with simple diner food if it tastes good. Unfortunately, this just didn't. It was one of those meals where you leave thinking, "Well, I ate," but not feeling like you actually enjoyed it. For the price, it was especially disappointing. I honestly feel like we could have had a better meal almost anywhere else for less money even somewhere like McDonald's, and I'm not a fan of McDonald's. I truly appreciate how friendly and accommodating the staff were, which is why I'm giving more than one star. I just hope the food quality and value improve because the service deserves better than the food that's being served.

I walked in at 3:30 pm on a Monday, a slow time for diners. There was only one table occupied when…read moreI gave my order of a grilled chicken sandwich and slaw, so service was fast, but kurt. The sandwich had a nice Chipotle sauce that went well with the cheese, lettuce and tomatoes that came with it. My meal was served on Styrofoam. Prices have gone up lately, but are still reasonable. My bill was $12 for a large drink and a sandwich. I'm glad this diner is still around, as it's the only non-chain eatery in the PX area. Ambiance is that of a classic 50s diner, with the sound of crashing bowling balls in the background. Hours vary.

This outdoor location boasts it all with a restored and unique 1957 Valentine diner of old Americana, an old 1950s style Airstream for a bar (really cool), Dots and Dashes Bar, pretty comfy picnic style seating, swamp coolers to keep you comfortable, wide-open space, an enormous tent to keep you protected from the Arizona sun and a stage for kids to perform and the occasional locals to serenade from. The diner sits at the heart of a classic American trailer court, with a few classic cars, some retro RVs, and even an historic boat. Dining outdoors beneath umbrellas or under a swamp cooler air-conditioned tent, where the retro music and ambient setting creates a dynamic 1950s mood. Their breakfasts are great - and unique. Especially their Pork Belly Breakfast Sammi is fantastic, consisting of a perfectly prepared pork belly, arugula, a sriracha aioli and egg on a brioche bun, as is their Screwdriver - you can actually taste Vodka! My wife had the fab perfectly smoked brisket tacos prepared with an incredible salsa verde, fried egg, queso fresco and black beans. Oh, btw, their home fries are to die for! Dot's Diner at the Shady Dell is a must visit breakfast/brunch joint when visiting Bisbee! We stopped in the morning we left town and were sorry we hadn't tried them sooner. Bon appétit!

Of the 18 beers on tap, five were sours, three were imperial stouts. I really like the Blood Orange Wheat at the original location. The only one I saw on this tap list that I like is the Czech Pilsner. I wanted to try something new so I had two new to me beers, the Golden Eagle ale and the Blonde ale. Both were light on alcohol and taste. I sat at the bar so service was top notch. It wasn't very busy for a late afternoon. Two women next to me had been there a while and were on the loud and tipsy side. The much heavier one even broke her pint glass. The bartender took it all in stride. I ordered a burger special, the Garden Crunch ($17.99) with a side of home-made chips. It's a smashburger with arugula, chopped pecans, cream cheese, watermelon (very thinly sliced) on a brioche bun. The specials are not posted on the regular menu. I was pleasantly surprised at how well the taste and texture of everything mingled. Service : 5 Food: 4 Beer : 3

We were seated quickly and both ordered iced teas. Our waitress was attentive and brought our drinks quickly. We settled on sharing the french dip sandwich, split, with onion rings. The beef had a good flavor and the swiss cheese was nicely melted. We each got 3 onion rings which seemed a bit lacking as they weren't that big. The au-jus was the biggest issue we had. There was zero flavor not even the normal saltiness, it might as well have been colored water. If we're ever in town again we would probably find a different place for lunch.

I didn't come by for the coffee, though. I had a full order of B&G and I ate it all! The sausage gravy still has that peppery kick to it. The biscuits were a bit dense but the gravy made up for it. The interior hasn't changed much since Brenda ran this place. Gone are all the 2014 flood photographs of the nearby San Pedro River. The crowd died down by the time I left at 1:15pm, but that gave me some time to chat a bit with Brad, who had been working in the kitchen with a few other employees. He told me he plans to open up Wednesdays and Thursdays and extend the opening hours until 8pm. He will still host local musicians to play on Fridays. He will run his famous BBQ as specials once he's settled into this new place. There is a 3.95% surcharge for credit cards.
