Happy Days was the first place we ate after we moved to Paul's Valley OK. 1900 miles in three days, and a 26' truck to unload on day four. Happy Days was one of the few businesses open on Sunday. I had the chicken fried steak, with fried okra, and sweet tea. Perfect meat to mashed potato to gravy ratio. Got hooked on fried okra and sweet tea as well. Friendly non-judgmental staff. Interesting decor. If you are hungry after church on Sunday, Happy Days is worth a try. read more

We stopped here for a mid-afternoon lunch on a road trip and were pleasantly surprised at the taste and quality of the cheeseburger and BLT lunch baskets. Happy Days Diner has an extensive menu serving any item all day long. Our server was attentive and friendly. The prices were reasonable, and the portions were perfect - plenty of food to fill us up, but not so much that there was waste. We'll be back to try other menu items. read more

What a wonderful place to grab delicious and well priced meal! This is truly a gem! The staff is lovely and the menu has a ton of options!!! read more

Food was great I would definitely recommend service was really good but could have used a tiny bit of enthusiasm

Amazing Food one of the best country fried steaks I've ever had, really good service, the ambiance is kind of like boomerang.

Good stop on our trip. Pancakes were great. Thank you!!! Cool place to eat. Grits were good too.

I love this spot. I was on a road trip with my boyfriend and just happened to drive by and I'm so glad I did. As soon as I walked in I was greeted by the nicest staff. The food came quick. My coffee was always topped off. And my burger was juicy and delicious. The decoration is a delightful 50's style diner and I am here for it. Thanks for making our road trip so much better. read more

Happy Days Diner - a burger and french fries - American Near Me - Pauls Valley, Oklahoma

My son and I stopped by while traveling to grab breakfast. The decor was cute and what you would expect from a diner named Happy Days. I was very impressed when the waitress asked two you boys if they wanted their usual so things started out good. The waitress was attentive and our food was good. However, as I sat there in the booth I noticed the faint smell of mold and saw that the ceiling was sagging. When I went to the ladies room at the end of the meal the ceiling was covered in black mold. I now have to say that I'm worried about the employees exposed to this daily. This honestly needs to be addressed right away for the safety of staff and patrons alike. read more

Food was great, and servers were nice. Service was quick. It's a cute place and the inside was decorated with Elvis Presley.

Pauls Valley OK is a difficult place to find an open restaurant on Sunday. I happily recommend "Happy Days Diner" on W Grant near I-35. The restaurant has charming 50s diner decor, excellent food and service. The Chopped Steak Diner had REAL mashed potatoes!! read more

Nice little old fashioned diner with a good diverse menu. The food we had was delicious - chicken strips and classic breakfast. Well prepared and tasty. Our server was one of the best ever. She was at the table frequently without hovering. She cared for our every need. I'm glad to have stumbled upon this place. We will be back. read more

This is the best restaurant I've been to in a long time, service was great and they were funny! Food was soooo good!

Stopped here while driving home to Texas. Waitress was very kind and attentive. I ordered the Philly cheesesteak was phenomenal. Would eat here again. read more

The food was respectable, typical for what you would get in a diner. The Belgian waffle was rather bland, tasted like what you would get on one of those hotel, breakfast bars, but everything else was good. The service was very good and Tara was excellent! The decor was fun, consistent with the 50s happy days diner theme. And the tables and floors were clean. The only reason for four stars instead of five was the stink coming out of the bathrooms right when you walk in the door. I saw that mentioned on other reviews and apparently they have not fixed the problem. read more

Stopped in for a quick breakfast on Labor Day 2021. Conveniently located less than .5 miles off the highway. Quiant decor, friendly and speedy service and the food was very good.

Too freakin' cool!!! Waitstaff is amazing, friendly, and on top of their game!! Food is A++, we had questions about the Hot Diggity Dog and the owner came out and chatted with us for about 20 minutes or so. Not too bright, not too dark, and tastefully decked out in a 50s theme. read more

Happy Days Diner - Ambiance - American Near Me - Pauls Valley, Oklahoma

After reading reviews on Facebook I decided to give this place a try. The reviews were spot on! Great food and service in a warm and welcoming restaurant. read more

The food was good and the service was just OK. One of our two waitresses took our drink orders-two waters, Dr Pepper, sweet tea, and unsweet tea. She came back with the waters, the DP, and the sweet tea. Completely forgot the unsweet tea. That's fine, no biggie. We asked the second waitress if they serve breakfast all day and she said, "I think so." Maybe she's new, but that's a pretty important thing to know. Also, not a real big deal. Food came out. I had ordered a salad with thousand island dressing and got ranch instead. Again, not a big deal and easily remedied.When we were leaving, there was a lot of commotion happening at the register with the waitresses yelling at each other about being in the way. Then the kicker. A man who appeared to be the owner was our cashier. I pulled out my credit card to pay and he looked at my male companion and said, "whatever happened to the good old days when a man took a lady out and paid for HER lunch " I was quick to respond that I am the BOSS, and THAT's why I'm paying for the lunch. Any of these things would. It have bothered me as a single incident, but added together made our lunch an unpleasant experience. read more

Came here a few weeks ago bc of the snow storm to Paul's Valley. Grateful it was opened. Friendly, great service. Pretty good food and fairly priced Definitely go check it out read more

This was another stop on our way back from Dallas. Cool little stop in Pauls Valley. The whole place was decorated as a 50's diner. They had a lot of cool art on the walls which included old stars you would expect and local cars we know from car shows. It is especially cool to talk to the owner and hear how everything came from patrons of the restaurant. The bacon burger was great! I wish I would have been hungrier as the pies looked incredible too!! We heard people raving about the cherry pie while we were there too. read more

Typical diner. Love the theme! Food was good. Bathroom smelled awful. And needed a good scrub.

It's a locals place that I am sure gets folks off the I35 highway. The service was good, the place was trying hard to have a 50's feel but the local young staff prevented that. The food was actually pretty good..we had Breakfast that day. We would stop by again as it was good enough to return. read more

Happy Days Diner - American Near Me - Pauls Valley, Oklahoma

Like stepping back in time! Good food no matter what time of day! Old time decor and music is fun atmosphere.

Food and service was good. Recommend the Tilapia and the Grilled Chicken Salad, both were tasty

Service was fine. Not sure if the conversation behind our booth or tbr food was worse. The grilled chicken (if it was chicken was awful. Beans had no flavor except plastic. The bathrooms we bad.... dirty, one stall had a broken handle and the other had no lock. Highly recommend eating elsewhere. read more

Great food and pleasant service. Treated like local friends and family. Stopped by chance and was very happy we did. Right off I-35.

The service was great. The food came out quickly. Pancakes and eggs . Cheesesteak . The cheeseburger was . The meat is not all beef??? Not yummy. read more

Chicken fried steak, broccoli soup were great. Good flavor and the right sz. Service was unbelievable-meaning it couldn't hv been any better. She did everything she could to take care of us. Atmosphere was so nice-back to the 50-60s, loved the way it was decorated. Wish more towns had small diners like that. read more

Great food and service will stop the next time we are passing through! Friendly staff

Pretty disappointing. We came at 11:30am and we were seated right away. I ordered the shake, rattle and roll, which is a burrito with egg, sausage, and cheese and a side of the country potatoes. The potatoes were decent. The burrito was also decent. The one bad thing about the burrito was the dry and cracking flour tortilla. My boyfriend ordered off the choose 4 menu. He got eggs, hash browns, biscuit and gravy and pancakes. He said the biscuit was not flaky. He says more like a roll. He said the eggs seem like they were liquid, premixed kind. When I saw him cutting into the pancakes with his fork, I could tell they weren't good. Very hard and rubbery. He took one bite and was done. I took 2 bites just to see what he was dealing with and sure enough, they suck! will not be back. read more

Ordered the fajitas. Tasty but only 5 small bites of beef. They put a bunch of tortillas in there. I don't know why it was barely enough meat for a taco. Gave it 2 stars because the staff was nice. I'm still hungry so I'm at sonic next door spending another 15 bucks.. read more

My husband and I stopped the Happy Days Diner for a later lunch (around 1:15) and since we needed gas while going through on our RV trip we decided to give it a try. We were not disappointed. We shared a regular cheese burger plate (came with fries) and some coleslaw. I also had to leave with a chocolate malt! Everything tasted fresh and very tasty. Nothing was greasy in any way. Good thick fries. It was a nice quiet mom and pop stop along the way. The service was good and very friendly people. I asked he lady who seated us for a recommendation and she said she likes the cheese steak but as you can tell, we chose the burger just because a few of the other reviews said the burgers were very good. Again, not disappointed! Next time cheese steak, lol. If we come this way again on one of our RV trips, we know where to stop for a good meal. read more
