We went on Mother's Day morning. I got the sausage gravy and biscuits and it was really good. My boyfriend got the corn beef hash which was also homemade and very tasty. Our eggs were cooked perfect. The staff was also very attentive and kept coming by to refill our coffees. Only negative was that the floor sounded...sticky? But maybe they just need a fresh wash. great breakfast! read more

Friendly greeting. Drinks ordered and delivered quickly. Extensive menu, lots of seafood options. Many sandwich choices. I had lobster mac and cheese, ooey and gooey and really cheese. Hubs got a nice rueben on rye and MIL ordered a BLT on rye. All three of enjoyed well made food and delightful service. They offer home made pies and root beer shakes. The building includes a great open concept old diner vibe with stainless steel or aluminum siding from a local vintage diner! Easy to get to. Plenty of parking. read more

Oct 2025 I ordered baked haddock to go. It was so delicious! The staff was so friendly. Look forward to going back soon

Great Food! Service? Went in at 6:10 PM. Wait staff, (at least, our server) seemed more concerned about closing in 50 minutes than keeping us on her radar. Got to say I'd put up with the mediocre service for the food! Maybe she'd had a bad day! Will be going back! For the Great food!! read more

Im giving this place a 3 we have been many many times. Food is great. Pricing is great. It's very clean. That being said we went there with a party of 7 I think it was 7 might have been 8 food was good hot priced great it came out fast it was great. Should be a 5 star We got our bill and the server said to me on a table this big we expect a 20% tip. If thats the case they should.write it on the menu and automatically add it. My tip ended up being like 32.00. I am a server so I would have tipped her 50.to 75 for the bill we had. I asked her if that was her doing asking for a 20% tip or if the restaurant made her ask that. She said it was the owner. So I called the owner to ask if this was the case incase it.wasnt and the server was just saying that (to me it sounded tacky). The person who.anwsered the phone was going to have the owner call me back and she never did. Ive severed larger tables and have been stiffed and it sucks but its part of the job. Then the next table will tip 25% so it averages out at the end of the night most nights. To me if I was the owner of a business I would never ask this. Maybe she dosent and the server takes it upon herself to do this. Im not sure I will be back and everyone that ive told this senerio thinks its tacky as well and should not be said. Add it to the menu its standard practice but to say it to me is in poor taste read more

We eat everywhere and this is the best meal I've had in a long time. Jillian was the best waitress I've had to.

Having breakfast in the new Farmington Diner's addition during its Grand Opening. Fantastic remodel for an vintage Diner ‼ Great food and service in a bright, open, brand new remodel with an authentic feel. Thank you Gerri-Lynn for your professional service delivered with a smile and caring about your customers as always It's a Winner read more

Came in from a long drive and they took good care of us. Waitress was very nice and friendly. Somewhat limited menu but it sticks to the diner classics and pulls them off well, food tasty and hot. Kind of an old school roadside spot, a little sticky but its a diner thats just how its supposed to be. Will be my go to from now on! read more

First time in . In the area checked yelp and this place popped up. Pulled in and it looked closed but had an open sign. Almost left . Saw some seniors come out so we went in . This is unlike any diner I have been to . I felt like I was back in 1982 by the decor And food . Honestly the prices did not match the quality . I ordered the French onion soup based on Sara's review and picture that I glanced at before looking into I also ordered a root beer float . The cup was so small there was not half a can of soda in that cup . Waitress brought a dish and napkin and spoon for it but no straw , smh , my guest had coffee which he said was not great, he ordered fish bites and home made Mac and cheese . He said the Mac and cheese was horrible. Jarred Alfredo sauce with shredded cheese on top. Watery no flavor. He's not picky at all, the float tasted fine but was super small. The onion soup came in a crock pot. It's an app but I had it as an entree as I could find anything else . It tasted fine but was cold . The waitress must have seen my disgust and asked how it was . I had had three spoon fulls. I said good but cold, the croutons inter the cheese were soggy . This was not made fresh. It was all pre assembled and in the fridge for god knows how long . Then microwaved , I heard it . I also heard a microwave while waiting for our order. The prices to not reflect this low quality food , even for a lined this are fresh prepared . The service was as bad as the food . I do not recommend. I will not be back . Check out health score violations . Getting back to Sara , I think she is an employee leaving reviews and pictures. Everyone has different tastes and expectations with food . Maybe Farmington has lower expectations. PS , my guest never got the roll with his dinner which I just read that it should have . I should have been on it when I actually heard her asking the customers if they actually wanted the roll that they payed for . SMH . This is seriously one of the worst places I've eaten at . Ever. I have to say the area seniors seem to frequent this place by the looks of it. read more

The outside looks like a 50's dinner. The inside is redone though. Bigger than it looks on the outside. Went there around lunchtime, on vacation so i slept late, I was expecting a full breakfast menu but at least there was a partial one. I wouldn't have gotten to try the turkey dinner if it went differently. The service was good, but the Turkey Dinner was great all white meat turkey, favorable stuffing, nice gravy and even came with a roll and cranberry sauce. Nice experience overall close by where we are staying will definitely be back. read more

Farmington D - Turkey Dinner - Diners Near Me - Farmington, Maine

Service was amazing our waitress was so lovely. Food was tasty. Overall great. The new diner car is so cute.

I was worried about how this place would be, but we were hungry and in need of dinner. My fears were realized. The salad was pre-made and not fresh. They apparently store a bunch of salads in the fridge, but maybe too far in the back of the fridge because half of it was frozen. Talk about iceberg lettuce, my wife almost chipped a tooth on a piece of celery. I tried to make a safe call and just get a sausage and cheese omelette. I have never seen a diner serve powdered eggs before. I felt like I was in Army boot camp. My wife's chicken Parm was one breaded chicken stick out of a frozen Tyson bag with a can of Hunts tomato sauce dumped on top. It's a slophouse. You'd be better off at the Subway down the street. read more

Farmington D - Boiled dinner - Diners Near Me - Farmington, Maine

I just don't think I ever need to come here again in my life ‍‍ Poor service, poor quality food items priced at quality food prices, poor aesthetics , and just an all-around underwhelming experience, altogether. Waitstaff (3 women) were all standing all around the register near the front door and clearly talking about customers, etc. I had to ask for several items many times and was treated like my request was an inconvenience to breaking up their conversation. My waitress was unavailable every time we needed her, and there was maybe three tables total in addition to myself and my boyfriend at our table, so busyness was not a factor or consideration, unfortunately. read more

I continue to be impressed with the quality of food at Farmington D. I appreciate the well prepared and ample recipes. Top it off with being served by a terrific staff, and you have scored a winner. I await your dining car opening up! You have brought some serious sparkle to Farmington, Maine. Thank you! Beth A happy customer read more

I have eaten at the Farmington D many times in the past pretty sure l am not going back. I ordered take out today the person answering the phone had no training and did not have a clue. The chicken cordon Bleu was awful which in the past was my favorite l ended up throwing it away the potatoes were just awful lumps of uncooked potatoes the roll was stale. I was very disappointed as l had looked forward to the chicken cordon Bleu all day. New cook??? I won't be back. read more

i wish i could give this place a 0! i found hair in my food, my chicken was pink, the manager was extremely uninviting!! definitely my first and last time visiting. if you value money don't bother! extremely rude customer service and poor food quality. read more

Service & food is excellent! The decor is fabulous! Waitress was excellent!!! The owner is pleasant to talk to

Service was B+ but food quality/flavor was only a C at best. Value a C also. Food quantity was ok, but again, quality (esp in fish / seafood) needs improvement. Servers were very nice. read more

My husband and I went there because the parking lot was full and that is usually a good sign. Well...not this time...not for us. We both ordered the baked haddock. Both dishes came at the same time, but my fish was not fresh. Not only did it taste bad, it smelled bad, too. We asked the waitress (who by the way was wonderful, her name is Jennifer G.) to just take it away. She offered another one, but after tasting/smelling that one, I really didn't want to even think about another one! She said she would take that off the bill. But, when she came back, she said the owner said we had to pay full price!! Full price for a small dish of squash and few onion rings??? We paid it, but we will not be going back anytime soon. Jennifer G. was very apologetic but it wasn't her fault. My husband told her to tell her boss that we would never be coming back. read more

Came to spend the holidays with my mother in law. She raves about Farmington D so the wife and I wanted to go there for dinner with her. After driving 12 hours from Virginia and checking into our hotel, we all met up hungry and ready to chow. My wife who's from Dixieland tells me all the time, I don't know fried clams until I have whole belly clams and not strips. So..... imagine my entire disappointment when we pull into the parking lot at 4:30pm and they're closed. Not only closed for the day but looks permanently closed and sitting in the parking lot checking Yelp it says they're open until 9pm. Upset doesn't say enough. First holiday night meal ruined!!!! read more

Always great service and great food. Very nice portions and excellent price. We have always had a great meal and never had to wait long at all. Highly recommended read more

Very nice staff and service. The food is delicious, you can tell the ingredients are fresh, farm to table. Very impressed with quality and quantity of food. And staff couldn't be more helpful and friendly!!! Definitely try it out!! read more

As mentioned in other reviews, the sign in the door said "we are new and trying to iron out our kinks, please be patient with us." However, if it could have been wrong, it was. If you are looking for food with some semblance of taste, or a waitress who will come to your table, please look elsewhere. I ordered an omelette and biscuits with gravy, my fiancée had the pancakes and a side of bacon and eggs. I am certain that not one dash of seasoning was used, it was so bland I might as well have been eating cardboard. Farmington D, please take this in the best possible way, you need to learn to cook and provide service for your customers. The waitress took our order, delivered the food, and then we saw her again when we were done and waiting for the check. They need to come to the table, and know what to do. Make some sort of training plan for your entire team, and stick to it! I hope you can iron this out, but we will not be returning to your location unless we hear of a drastic change. I will say you are in a great location, but please: Fix the food. Make it taste good Fix the service, train your servers and have them visit the customers at least once during a meal with a smile Fix the atmosphere, it felt like a rundown diner. I want homey and rustic, not shabby and dirty. read more

Our new favorite restaurant. My husband and I have been there a few times now and we both found the service first rate and the food delicious, the Chef makes a Seafood Chowder that is out of this world, not milk or cream based but made from a broth. Very flavorful and packed with seafood, including lobster! Before we moved out this way we had been frequent guests at a restaurant in Skowhegan. Farmington D is head and shoulders above. I can't think of a another that I would give 5 stars to. Jean read more

Great place, nice comfortable atmosphere,. Always pleasant wait staff. Good food wether it be, breakfast lunch or dinner. Great homemade deserts ! Please, please, please, consider changing your coffee brand. New England brand coffee, would be an awesome choice... read more

We had a great breakfast at this diner. Food was good, coffee was great with cream from a local dairy and the staff were very welcoming.

Went here with an infant and they happily accommodated us. The staff were welcoming and genuine people, attentive but not overly so. We got the prime rib quesadilla which was on the specials menu, and it was very good, the meat was chopped evenly and cooked tender, melty cheese and peppers and onions too. The fries here are really good IMO, and different from what you normally find. Large but thin cut potato wedges, crisp on the outside, soft and potato-ey on the inside, All the food we ordered was cooked well, tasted good and was a large amount for what you pay for. My wife is big into soft lighting, and this place has that in spades. read more

I appreciate that the new owner has reopened this restaurant. Farmington can really benefit from some additional restaurants, especially at a mid-price point for families. I love the diner theme idea in theory, but it is a bit lacking here. Other than some plain metal panels being displayed as "art", the walls are pretty bare with not much to look at. The red/yellow color scheme isn't pleasant. I hope they consider updating the interior to a more attractive look: if it's a diner/retro theme, do it well. The menu seems confused and priced too high--comparing many of the exact same dishes with the previous Harvest House menu (whose recipes they use), the prices are actually higher. Is this restaurant going to be a diner or a family restaurant? From the menu, it's hard to tell. Like someone else posted on Google, $2.75 for a cup of coffee is too much. Offering a $8.99 cheeseburger with fries but then charging an extra $0.49 for lettuce and $0.70 for a tomato leaves a bad taste in the mouth (especially when those extras aren't listed on the menu). Most adults want more than a plain cheeseburger and don't appreciate frivolous, unadvertised charges. The pies aren't homemade, but are baked by somewhat local bakeries. Here they could improve by taking pride in their desserts rather than simply microwaving pre-made ones. I'd love to return, but have already been disappointed twice. I wish the Farmington D well and hope they get it together soon so we can feel good about coming back. read more
