    Corned Beef Hash and Eggs

    Wow! Came to Franks Diner Northside yesterday (a Saturday) for breakfast. Had to wait about 20 minutes for a seat at the counter, and SO worth it! Got to see all the action! Had the Corned Beef Hash and Eggs, and are every single bit of it! It was that good! Highly recommend!!

    Great Nana's Meatloaf Benedict

    We had breakfast at Franks Diners on N Newport Hwy in Spokane. The service was outstanding and the food was even better. The ambiance is an old Train Car. My wife had the Nana's old fashion Meatloaf Breakfast and I had the eggs and sausage with fruit. Both were captivating in taste. If you are ever in Spokane you have to go and give them a try. We go there every trip. They have something called Crispy deviled eggs. We are going to try them next time but they look great.

    I love Frank's diner! Their Joes Special is very good and is very filling. They accidentally gave me the half order, but were very friendly and corrected it. Their gluten free toast option is 3 little pancakes, which were good as well. The restaurant itself is cute and cozy.

    Had a great time!!! Food was excellent and everything was running like a well oiled machine, I had the Work omelette and it was outstanding. And you can't beat that old school diner railroad car. What a great landmark!

    Yummy & unique boxcar restaurant! The staff are always super friendly and attentive as well.

    Rueben sandwich
    Joe W.

    Food was amazing. Served hot and fast. Classic greasy spoon type dinner. Built from an old train, great setting. We sat at the counter, which was just as comfortable as any table. Staff was friendly and attentive. Portions were large, come hungry, you will get filled up. I had the Rueben sandwich, best I ever had. Definitely going back next time we are in town. Next time I want to try the French toast.

    So, Frank's is a real diner that serves hearty American classics, like open-faced pot roast…read moresandwiches and chicken fried steak. It's getting harder and harder to find this sort of thing, so this was like a breath of fresh air on our trip to Spokane! Service was prompt and friendly, and the food came out in pretty much no time at all. We got the fried green tomatoes appetizer (yummy) and everyone was happy with what they ordered. Everything seemed made with real ingredients and not prepackaged or frozen stuff. The Ruben used real corned beef, and the gravy on the pot roast sandwich was amazing. Plus Frank's is in an old-time train car so the ambiance is pretty neat. There's a history to each of the train cars in the location and photos are posted of when it was in service. Overall good food and a neat place to eat. Five stars.

The kitchen, located right in front of us was fascinating to watch. What sealed the deal for a 5 star review was not only the food, but the efficiency of the operation and the teamwork and respectful culture of the staff. They operated extremely well in the tightest of work spaces. Pros: - you can try one of each Benedict!! I got one caprese and one bacon - highly recommend. - the fried green tomatoes are amazing! Either plain or in the caprese Benedict , try them! - the fried deviled eggs are one of the best I've ever had! - the pancakes have the slightest crisp to the outer edges making them one of the best I've tried - your soft drink will always be full , at least if you're sitting at the bar - large portions - stuff yourself silly or take the rest to go! - Leslie, our server had a badge that said she's been there for 24 years! She was the perfect server for the front of the house - friendly, efficient, and didn't miss a beat. The best!

The two…read moreburgers were overworked by the cook; would call him/her a chef, except a chef would not have ruined the burgers. Both burgers were too hard and way too overcooked. I am talking no juice dry. The way the patties were made made it difficult to even eat. They were so roundish that I could barely keep them together in the bun. To make the burger even dryer, there was no sauce of any kind on/in the bun and the meat had not been seasoned at all during cooking, so it was dry and bland. Too make matters worse I had to ask for a side of mayo and they charged me 75 cents - are you kidding me? I was hesitant to ask for some mustard and ketchup, which should have already been at or brought to the table to begin with. The waitress was pleasant, but I had to ask for everything. I would have returned the burger, but I was having lunch with a friend and did not want to ruin the encounter. I got the batter fries, which were crispy and seasoned well, but with the dry burger the fries didn't help. At that moment I wish I had ordered the side salad instead, as my friend's looked mouthwatering and my mouth needed watering; LOL. Anyway, the burger and fries, with water came to almost $25, with tip. I had been there once before, but I couldn't remember what I had; it was that memorable. I hate McDonald's and have not been there in about a decade, but I would have gladly eaten a double quarter pounder, with cheese, and some fries over this overpriced cotton mouth special. These guys were not even busy, so there is no excuse for the unsatisfactory food. I will not be back.

(That's just me). I always order the chicken fried steak with eggs. Perfection. The correct temperature when served. And, they keep filling your coffee mug until you are wired and need to take a hike to burn off the energy! Anyway, you drink as much or as little as you want. Any time I'm hungry for breakfast food, I think of this place. Throwback decor, real waitresses, and energetic cooks. On Saturday and Sunday mornings, people are waiting to get in. But you won't wait long. But if you do, it will be worth it.
