John & Sarah's Restaurant - Albert's Hash with corned beef and green peppers. - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Perry, New York

Stopped by with my friend before we set off for our drive home after a couple days around Letchworth State Park. We came in around 10AM on a Saturday and it wasn't too busy. We were told to sit wherever we wanted so we did. Our waitress took our drink orders right away. We both opted for black coffee. The coffee was pretty good, but I'm not exactly a coffee snob. I ordered the Breakfast Garbage Plate with sausage, homefries, and scrambled eggs. It comes smothered in sausage gravy which I happen to really enjoy. The serving size was generous and I thought my food was pretty good. The only gripe I had was the potatoes could've been cooked a little more. Some of them were a bit firm. My friend ordered the Hungryman Plate. He says it was decent but had similar complaints about the potatoes. They were also a little underseasoned. Again, the serving size was generous, especially the pancakes. My friend shared the pancakes with me but unfortunately they were a little lackluster. They were a bit soggy which was disappointing. They weren't completely inedible, but we didn't finish them. The waitress noticed and asked if we needed a to-go container. We said yes but we weren't aware that we would be charged $0.75 to take something to go. Not a huge deal, but it's annoying to feel like you're getting nickel and dimed. Since the pancakes were just meh we probably would've just left them if we had known we'd be charged extra to take them. It seems like breakfast options were limited in the area, but John & Sarah's is a totally OK place. I wouldn't be opposed to returning if I were in the area. read more

Used John & Sarah's for my daughter's bridal shower luncheon. Perfect. So good. Haven't been to the actual restaurant in years but when I witless go, that too, was so good. read more

Great little local diner with some serious food. We stopped in on our way through Perry, very easy to find, and enough parking. No stairs to get in but there is a tiny step up. There are mostly booths with just a few counter seats and a couple high top tables. Bathrooms are M/F but one at a time. The ladies room door didn't lock well, but I wasn't in there long anyway lol. You'd better be hungry if you order the Hungry man for breakfast. Hubby could not finish it! He drinks tea and they only had Earl Grey, so that was disappointing for him to not have some plain black tea. The coffee was great but I did have to request a refill, and it wasn't busy. My 3-egg omelette was huge and full of stuff (I appreciate the onions were grilled first) and I chose not to finish it so I could try some of their own recipe pancakes. The pancakes were so delicious - light fluffy and served with real butter. I couldn't finish those either! I should have asked for real maple syrup (not sure if that's an option) as they gave us a large container of "mystery syrup," which was ok, but these pancakes deserve real syrup! Kiersten, our server, was excellent and can carry many many things at a time. We would stop back again when in the area! read more

Had to get the garbage plate! Was delicious. Place is small and nothing fancy but gets the jobs done. Waiter was super nice and accommodating. Only mild complaint was the creamer I poured in my coffee had congealed / seemed spoiled but not a huge deterrent. Overall a great place to stop if you're in the area! read more

While visiting a friend out in Perry, we decided to pick up some lunch from John & Sarah's restaurant. I ordered their crunchy chicken club wrap with a side of salad and italian dressing. Our pickup time was fairly quick and the food came carefully packaged, which I appreciated. I was surprised to see that the wrap had a tomato tortilla shell, but it was surprisingly good! The chicken inside was still crispy and delicious after the drive and the wrap paired well with my side salad. I would definitely give this menu option a try! read more

Excellent food, friendly service. Quaint, small place. Had a few hours to spare before an event. Glad we stopped!

We wanted to - as usual - help a local small business. We tried to like this small place but it wasn't easy. I opted for a fried fish fry which is pan-fried. It was NOT served pan-fried at all. I suspect it was put on the grill, covered with a pan lid and steamed. There were NO fry browning on the fish at all. I were eating soup, and the fish was delivered as we were STILL eating, so the fish got cold. Cold "cooked" fish is not tasty at all. My first time ever served and ate a cold fish, which was not tasty. By time we got to bed, my stomach was tossing and turning, not me but my stomach. read more

Came here with my family to try something new and we won't be back. Forks were dirty, food wasn't good.

I decided to give this place another chance. Had corned beef and cabbage dinner for St Patrick's day & it was very good. Sliced a bit too thick for corned beef though. The cashier was friendly . The take out was correct nothing missing :) read more

If you are from out of town and want a quaint local spot, look no further than John & Sarah's. Their speciality pancakes, skillet, and French toast tasted great and were unbeatable prices for the portion size! Our waitress was so helpful with the menu and pointed us to must see spots in Letchworth! read more

Great little diner. Above average friendly and attentive service and bomber sandwich and Greek salad above average also. Recommend. read more

Very friendly staff. Food is good could be better but good home town spot. Go a few times a year

Our breakfast was VERY GOOD. My breakfast wrap with sausage was Super Tasty! My family was jealous... Service was also very good: "service with a smile". read more

Stopped in on a Sunday morning for a quick lunch. Food was average at best. Side salad was ok and the wrap was ok, The Server never returned after delivering our food to see if we needed anything. She was far from friendly like other Yep reviews mentioned. The owner or the waitresses should do some cleaning. The floor was filthy! Bathroom was terrible and out of paper towel. read more

This is a good family run restaurant. We had breakfast there 2 days in a row. Each time we had leftovers. Their sausage gravy is really good. read more

Came here for lunch with a buddy after hiking in Letchworth State Park. The chili was absolutely phenomenal for warming up from the (chili) weather outside and the Angelica Burger was great as well. Would absolutely recommend for any meal of the day. read more

John & Sarah's Restaurant - Rueben Sandwich and Angelica Burger - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Perry, New York

Small, nice, clean, good food. What more can you ask for? We stopped in after a cold morning at the Arts/Craft show. My choice was a 3 egg steak skillet with Texas toast. Dang that plate was HUGE!! I literally ate half for brunch and the other half for dinner. My wife had a grilled chicken salad and that was huge as well. The table to my left both had burgers and they looked super delicious too! Unfortunately, Perry is about an hour away, but I'm planning to eat here next year after the show, or the next visit to Letchworth state park. Well done little diner!!! read more

There was not much else open in town. We were visiting to hike at Letchworth Mediocre is being very kind. read more

The local Food was good. The waitress is really helpful and nice. We really enjoyed time there!!

This place has a big selection of food to choose from and very reasonable prices. The dinner and breakfast we ate there had abundant servings and all the food was delicious. The ladies who served us were pleasant and attentive. (It is a small diner, so when an elderly person in the diner took her call on the speaker phone setting, we all got to listen to her conversation.). read more

John & Sarah's Restaurant - 3-egg (maybe 5-egg) omelet with 2 large fluffy pancakes. All delicious! - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Perry, New York

Walked in on a Sunday around noon. Was told to grab a seat wherever. Waitress came over after a few minutes with menus and took our drink order. As I looked around I noticed how dirty the booth seat was and the floor. Since we were starving and the selection of eateries is minimum our here, we decided to stay. Salad came out after a few minutes and then our sandwiches 5 minutes later. Waitress never came back to see how everything was or if we needed anything. Used the bathroom, no toilet paper or paper towels. Will not be back. read more

Great breakfast menu, huge portions, friendly service. Our visits always very pleasant and satisfying. The ambiance is warm and welcoming.

So found this place after striking out a few times on the drive north to south upstate new York. Holy Moses, this hit the spot. Big portion. Super friendly waitress. No complaints at all. Highly recommend. PS the pie list here is insanely impressive. Pie for breakfast dessert. Do it. You won't regret it. read more

Would not recommend. Everything tasted like a dirty grill . I was there from out of town and tried a couple different times giving them the benefit of the doubt. Won't make that mistake again read more

Stopped in for lunch with some work colleagues while in the area for the day. The place was filled with locals which is always encouraging. Fortunately, there was still a table or two open to accommodate us. Quite a lot of options on the menu in addition to a page of specials. Two of us went with the grilled chicken with cheese sandwich, side salad and a starter cup of chili. Another got a burger and the last guy crazily picked the pot roast dinner that turned out to be huge. All our food came out hot and fresh and in no time. My chicken sandwich was fabulous but I could only down half of it as it was too much. Huge portions seem to be the theme here. The cup of chili was also quite good with just the right amount of heat for my liking. Service was attentive and friendly for us out of towners. Prices were quite reasonable to boot. Not much more to ask from a lunch place beyond good food, huge portions, friendly service and reasonable prices. read more

Basic breakfast food, served in sizable portions, and prepared just fine. The menu here includes all of the usual suspects, nothing more. The three of us ordered various egg, bacon, hash browns, home fries, toast combinations. All were perfectly fine--nothing special but completely fine. Our server was friendly and attentive. read more

A real local place , not much from the outside but real home feeling inside and food is good! Homemade Mac & cheese and quesadilla's were excellent and great service. Hidden Jen and only 15 min from Letchworth state park read more

Good food, large servings, reasonable price, friendly service. Don't need reservations, not hard to find.

Awful!!!! We ordered takeout dinner of sirloin tips over rice and what we were saved were pieces of meat over chopped up spaghetti noodles I called and was told that is their rice they make their own it was really bad that was two years ago and my husband and I will never step foot in that restaurant again they did nothing to compensate we spent about $50 on takeout and literally everything went out in the garbage read more

Great country diner. Small place great for breakfast. Friendly staff,good food and nice prices.

Stopped in for dinner after a hike at Letchworth and was blown away! Food was great, service was lightning fast and very friendly! And did I mention the food was great? Their taco and broccoli cheese soups were delicious. I had the special goulash which had to have been the best I've ever had. Cousin had the chicken and biscuits which was great too! Homemade pies and desserts aplenty! We tried the chocolate peanut butter pie and it was delicious. Price and portions were fantastic! Would recommend and would visit again for sure! read more

Farmers omelet and skillet were way more than you can eat in one meal. It was packed on Father's Day morning but they are an efficient team working pleasantly which kept the whole little place feeling comfortable. They had a specials menu for breakfast and the lunch/dinner specials were so appealing we r going back for dinner. read more

Great little spot! Food was great, portions large and service was great & fast! We had to peanut butter pie for dessert which was out of this world! So glad we found this little gem! read more

This spot features great home cooking. I ordered the meat loaf, they ran out, so my second choice was the roast turkey dinner, which came with all the Thanksgiving trimmings. The cranberry sauce was great, the stuffing flavorful, the turkey was white meat, the potatoes were good, the carrots were nicely done. There was also a roll, and dinner salad that accompanied the feast. I also opted for the rhubarb pie, and coincidentally was talking about how I wanted just rhubarb pie, sans strawberries, and that it was hard to find. This place has it, and it is the right amount of sweet. read more

I hate giving bad reviews, but the service here was the worst I have ever received. The waitress was so entirely rude and was very snippy. She handed us our check before asking us if we wanted anything else (which we did) and when we said we did she kind of ripped the check back from us and we were met with a nasty attitude. Then, when we asked for a side plate she said we don't do that here. Which, is also something I have never got barked at for. We just wanted to split our buffalo wings! So, I would say if you can handle rude service, enter at your own risk! read more

In a small town without many options, this was a nice surprise! Good, hearty food and great service. We'll be back when we come to WNY.
