I keep coming back to Knights! I crave the "family-home-real" taste. It's simple, and exactly what I order. Not to mention the service is always good too. read more

The standard by which all converted rail car diners should be judged. The only seating is counter, the activity behind the counter is organized chaos, the portions are big, the coffee is bottomless and the food is great. I recently went back for the first time since it moved from it's old Division address... it has not lost one bit of it's charm. read more

There are 2 supposed Rail Car diners in the Spokane area. One is a brilliant diner with excellent food and amazing service call "Knight's Diner." The other is a shame of a chain that serves less than fresh meats , eggs, and produce it is called Frank's Diner. Do not be fooled all rail car diners in Spokane are not created equal. If you want the best breakfast in Spokane, take yourself to Knights Diner. read more

Knight's diner is absolutely amazing for breakfast! The rich heritage and history of the diner its fantastically explained by a wonderful and friendly waitress Racheal!! She knows the ins and outs of the restaurant since she has been there for at 15 years. I highly recommend knights diner as a place of choice for your breakfast needs! The hash browns are to die for, I mean seriously who makes him like Grandma on mom used to? Get here and ask for Racheal! read more

What an adorable little breakfast place. First off, in case you can't tell from the pictures, it's an old train dining car that's been converted into a stand alone breakfast restaurant. It's cute and cozy, and stepping heavy on the scale isn't gonna help you get around in here, if you know what I mean. As for the food, It's just a step up in quality from the average greasy spoon. Nothing too fantastic, and they're not bringing in any culinary artists to impress you. If you're not satisfied with eggs, bacon, hashbrowns, pancakes, biscuts & gravy, and that sort of thing, then hopefully you'll think the train car asthetic is cute, because that's kind of what they got here. read more

I have not been to Knights Diner in forever....i like the remodel.....very nice.....i ordered the first thing on the menue. I think it was the Market street or something... Breakfast was good, but what made our day was Lexi..... she was very sweey and helpfull. She should be employee of the month!!!! read more

Do you want a real train car dining experience????????? If you do skip Frank's and come over here. This is a true dining car experience where you are served old school diner type food. Homemade pancakes, fresh huckleberries, eggs cooked on a griddle, etc. Service was good, Vicky makes sure of that, food comes up quick, people are a hoot but here would be the complaints. 1) If you are looking for modern cooking or unique items you won't find it here, just old school breakfasts. 2) It's expensive for breakfast, just like franks but if you want that dining car experience than come here. Ratings FOOD For old school diner food - 4.5 stars Compared to competition - 2.5 stars SETTING If you want a train car experience 5 stars If you don't care 2 stars VALUE 2.5 stars when compared to Franks THE READER GET'S TO CHOOSE THEIR RATING If you want a old school dining car experience = 4 STARS If you just want breakfast = 2.33 STARS I gave it a three because I wanted the experience and the rest of my party wanted breakfast. read more

I love to give 10* but I cant my family and I walked in to this restaurant and OMG I had the best breakfast in the world and trust me when I say in the world I've been everywhere in the world everything had a aftertaste that will make you come back to this restaurant the food was on our table within 5 minutes the service we got from mrs. Vickie it was unbelievable read more

Great historical diner made from a turn of the century railroad parlor car. Good food fast. Vicki and her crew have been together for 20 years. The steady stream of clients says they do it right. Food was great, as are the prices. A great experience for diners. read more

We came here for an after wedding brunch and surprisingly they accommodated our party of 8 with not that much wait time. It was crammed and on the hot side but what do you expect in an old 1900's rail car right?? The food was your typical diner style fare but it wasn't super greasy or hard on the tum tum lol. And the price was right too, especially for the quality of food you get. The hash browns are in fact delicious and I suggest adding the brown gravy and onions, it made them even more magical. The service was cool too, the waitress was friendly and spent time with us chatting and telling us stories about the history of the place. read more

Now this is the kind of breakfast diner I've been looking for since moving to Spokane! Just a place to get a delicious no-frills breakfast. Their food is absolutely delicious. I had the corned beef hash. It was some of the best I've had. My wife got the hot cakes. They were the most perfect little hot cakes. Tender, sweet and fluffy. Good enough on their own that you could eat them without syrup. The only issue here would be the wait for both food and seating when it's busy, but it's completely understandable. There is very limited seating and, when we went, there was only one cook. Despite the limited staff, they are very friendly and take good care of you. My biggest issue is that i don't really fit all that well at the bar, but I'm about 6'6" so I don't think most others would have that issue. Either way, the food is well worth any wait or discomfort I may have experienced. read more

We just had the best time. This is a welcoming little diner. The waitstaff are great my coffee cup was refilled so many times it was never empty. I had the mini breakfast and my sister had the French toast combo. Both were great. If you want a good breakfast with great service this is it. read more

Food is relatively good, wait time is good. The atmosphere is lively and warm for the occasions of 2 people to 4 (considerations of table sizes). Staff carry positive attitudes and good small traditions. For personal preference, I felt it being a bit to tight to sit relaxed for both arms and legs being about 6'. Understanding that this business is trying to keep it's original look gives me no reason to really make of any cons. read more

Cool little diner, excellent example for what it is. Don't expect fine dining with tables. Counter Service only. Ingredients are straight from the 60s. Portions fill the standard diner platter, arrive hot, and are served with a smile. But what made it for me was the expert dance of efficiency that Vickie, owner and chief waitress, performed. It was restaurant entertainment at its best. Directive without being overbearing, quick without being rushed, true courtesy without any underlying impatience. Assistants were treated politely, responded politely, and did amazing background work. Congratulations for truly superior service in a very challenging environment. I can't imagine being able to pull it off so well. read more

A fabulous old train car just adds to the experience. The food is delicious and the owner and her staff are great as they hustle about in their small space behind the old counter. We loved every minute and will definitely try the huckleberry pancakes out next trip. read more

Food was barley warm, owner and manager were very rude and the employees seem to do whatever they please.

One of the two best breakfast places in town. The fresh hashbrowns with gravy and onions are a must have on every visit!

On my way to work today looking to get a to go order from Knights Dinner. I was really craving the corned beef hash from there. When I walked in I could see they were busy but not slammed. When I told the old lady with white hair I wanted to make an order to go she told me they were to busy for that. WHAT?? First of all you never say that to any potential customer. I don't care if your in retail or food service. I can think of multiple different ways to let someone know we're busy and it may take longer then usual. I can not say I am a regular at Knights Dinner but I know if I ever decide to go back I would walk right back out if she was working. read more

We absolutely LOVE the Maxi Breakfast and the Ambience of the Train Car... And the Owner and the Waitresses are awesome people. read more

This place is awesome. It's diners like this that make America great! The food was killer and the service was even better! Prices are good. If you haven't been here you need to make it a point to get in the doors. read more

You will never find this place without a line but it is well worth the wait. The food is great and the portions are plentiful. I recommend their breakfast, best around! read more

This restaurant is a staple of Spokane and if you don't eat there when you come to visit you are missing out on a rare thing. The atmosphere is nice the people are nice and everything is made to order so no worries about getting left over hasbrowns. This is truly one of the few place you can go to get a good breakfast and good service. read more

Walking into Knight's, I feel like it's a mix between a truck stop restaurant, and a nice train car diner like Frank's. There were 2 gals behind the counter both multitasking, and balancing the cooking, cleaning, and all the stuff 4 people or more should be doing. So our meal came quick, sloppy and tasty. My roommate ordered the mega breakfast if I remember correctly, and I got the mini. Each had dollar pancakes, bacon or sausage, eggs, and hash browns. Everything is cooked on one big flat top, and its all kind of thrown together, the hash browns sit there pretty much the whole time we were sitting there so they were nice and crisp, the bacon is pressed and the eggs are overcooked. It's pretty much just greasy, speedy, breakfast at its finest, in a kind of darker, smaller, more vintage feeling dining car. We may go back, but only in desperate times when I feel like brutalizing my digestive tract. read more

This is the best breakfast in Spokane. The best greasy spoon style breakfast I've ever had anywhere. The best hash browns I've ever had without a doubt, and the best bacon I've ever had. That's a lot of bests I know, but it's true IMO. :). The hash browns have this awesome crust on them. They have great gravy that I usually get on the side for the hash browns. I've talked with the owner and she says it's a special cut of bacon she orders up special from the butcher. The train setting is cool, but can make it hard to get a seat. Also it's a little tight. The more you eat there the less chance you'll be able to keep eating there cause you won't be able to fit in the seats anymore :). Seems like Franks is more popular. Franks is good, but not even close to Knights. Franks has better seating and that's the only victory they have in the train car breakfast wars. read more

Amazing food! Real diner experience! Been going here since I was little and the staff is awesome. Quick food, and a fun experience. I always head over to knights if I'm in Spokane. Even if it's only a day or two. read more

Good fresh hash brown, tasty pancakes, great service. Prices are reasonable. Call ahead for space.

Knight's has wonderful ambiance, outstanding food, and great service. You can't ask for more from any restaurant. The breakfast me and my friends had were all spectacular. The bacon, sausage, hashbrowns, eggs, and pancakes were all very tasty and prepared perfectly. The meal was a great value, too. If I lived in Spokane I would eat breakfast at Knight's every chance I could. My only regret was that I couldn't stick around for lunch! read more

Who doesn't love a delicious meal in a converted train car? It's always a fun time at Knights from the personality of the owner and staff to the personality of the car. The huckleberry pancakes are a personal favorite of mine with a side of bacon that is the perfect amount of crispy. I also had a blt once that was delicious. Whatever it is, it's made with love. read more

Get the hash browns with gravy and onions and the huckleberry pancakes. You won't be disappointed! The service is awesome and my kiddos loved it read more

Great little neighborhood stop for breakfast or a burger! One of my favorites. Can't beat the atmosphere

This place is wonderful!! The food is all cooked right in front of you by the owner and she is an absolutely amazing person. You feel welcomed as soon as you walk in the door and she continues to make you feel that way!! The experience of sitting and enjoying your food in an old train car is super cool. It is clean and decorated nicely, not over crowded with old stuff or junk on the walls. I would definitely recommend doing by for a meal if you in the area!! Also did I mention she bakes her own pies each day!! read more

Delicious! This is one of the only places in Spokane for breakfast that know how to cook over medium eggs. That's really important to me for some reason. I love the brown gravy and onions on the hash brown's, super yummy. Also like the old feel of the train cart. read more

Delicious food & very neat place to go see. The staff are fast & friendly and right on point. The breakfast was delicious & is my new favorite spot to go to. Corn beef hash is good! read more

The food here is very good. Just hope you don't get the owner to wait on you. She doesn't give very good service and you might have to put up with her snotty, rude remarks that she thinks are funny. She spends time chatting with her obvious favorite customer while others wait for things. read more

The best I can say about the cube steak lunch I had today was that the ranch dressing was terrific and the greens in the salad were fresh and crisp. On the other end of the spectrum, the steak was extremely small ... about the size of a woman's palm (not the whole hand), tough as shoe leather, and flavorless. Thank heavens for ranch dressing to drown it with. The toast and hashbrowns tasted like they had been cooked in rancid oils. Yuck! read more

I was so excited to finally try Knight's. Wow, was I disappointed! I paid $10 for a plate of hasbrowns, 2 eggs, a link of German sausage and 2 pieces of toast. The hasbrowns were burnt, the toast was too. She offered mustard for the sausage - one would think this was a standard condiment. When I looked at the bill she had charged me $0.85 for using one squirt! SERIOUSLY???? I will never go back and recommend you stay away. read more

I've been a customer of Knights Diner since diaper-hood, and have never been disappointed with a visit there. The original owner lived across the street from my childhood home at 119 E. Empire Spokane, Washington. My first job after school at St Xavier Catholic School, was mowing his lawn. He taught me attention to detail. Back then the diner was on Division Street, near the bottom of Division Hill, and our whole family would squeeze in for lunches as often as we could. (a rather large family) The entire staff was like a family to us as well, and that tradition still pervades my visits there today. You could be from another galaxy, and they will make you feel like one of their kin. I look forward to visiting again, whenever I can get back home from Hillsboro, Oregon, where I now live. Keep singing the songs along with the radio Vickie! read more

The food here is always consistently greasy spoon diner food. The guy cooking is the silent, heads-down type. I think the older lady is the owner. She is very efficient, inpatient, but nice in her own way I guess. The other server was very nice, but frazzled on a Saturday morning breakfast rush. We had to ask twice for creamer, orange juice and mustard. The food came out hot and was good as usual. This is a cozy little restaurant and I'd recommend the experience. read more

We decided to give Knights a try on a Saturday morning. It was fairly busy but there was seating for us. I got a pork chop and eggs. The chop was tasty and the food was cooked well. It didn't rock my world, but it was good enough. The train car makes this a fun place to grab a bite once in a while. read more
