A really old diner, with terrific service, a friendly staff, and excellent food. I have really become a fan of old diners. They may have aged, but the service and food remain fresh and terrific. Old time swivel stools at the counter, delicious coffee and a laid-back vibe at this place. Outdoor patio seating available. read more

I had the best lobster croissant at this adorable and historic diner in downtown Keene! The diner is a Paramount constructed diney made in New Jersey in 1961 and moved to Keene. Three couples have owned the diner since 1961. We tried on a whim. From the outside, the diner has shiny steel sides, like you'd expect. The sign is vintage above the diner. Inside are booths and counter seating. The place was packed when we arrived, but the hostess found a booth for two quickly. The menu offers breakfast or lunch options. There is a daily menu with specials, as well. I selected a lobster croissant with fries off the special menu. Food came out fairly quickly. Our server was friendly and attentive. Water glasses were kept full. My lobster croissant sandwich was packed with big chunks of lobster claw meat. Other than a slice of lettuce, there were no seasoning, so the lobster was the star. The sandwich was excellent! The croissant was fresh and soft. The shoestring fries were crispy and hot. The lunch was excellent and at $18, a bargain. My cousin had a Monte Cristo which is a ham and cheese on French toast. The thin sliced ham was packed thick on the sandwich. She said her sandwich was delicious. There is a covered patio outside, but it wasn't opened during our visit. There is free parking on the side and in front of the diner. There is a step up into the diner, so I'm not sure that there is wheelchair accessibility. Lindy's is adorable, historic and has great food. Well worth a visit. read more

I don't know about you, but if I go to a diner I am going there for the diner experience. I'm not expecting gourmet dining, elegant surroundings, or finely dressed servers. I'm expecting good food, cleanliness and comfortable seating, and efficient service: And that's exactly what you'll find a Lindy's Diner. The eating highlight for us when we popped in for breakfast was my partner's omelette. What made it stand out was the thinness of the outer egg. It was more like a crepe, than a pancake (if you know what I mean). That's the way we like an omelette, and how we make them at home. I had the half portion of the "Souther Benny" -- sausage gravy and a biscuit instead of English muffin & hollandaise. Either they mistakenly gave me the full portion, or the full portion is gigantic. Interestingly, the home fries look super boring. Little square potatoes that look like they have doing on them but paprika. Don't be deceived. Try them. They are deliciously seasoned and perfectly cooked. It was good but if I and known how they prepare their omelettes I would have gone that route. One final note: Out sever was awesome. I wish we wrote down her name so I could use it here. She was super busy, rushing around in a whirlwind, but had had a broad smile every time she stopped by our table and was super helpful and friendly the whole visit. A very solid classic diner choice for breakfast in Keene if you ask me. read more

Highly recommend Lindy's for great food and service. I know many like to wait for a booth but counter service is great as well. Since the service is so good sitting at the counter adds to the expierence speaking with the waitress and wait staff. read more

Always stop in here for a breakfast while in town for business---opens early and always busy! Says something right there about quality. My go-to breakfast is their white pizza scrambled eggs, sausage, and homemade sourdough toast....never disappoints! read more

We go often when we are in town.. We love the staff, food and experience! Opt for the grainy bread upgrade and the half portions as a side. read more

Service was great, informal and welcoming. The food, however, was lackluster. Fish tasted like it was fried from frozen. Shrimp was tasty, but the fries. The fries - what to say. The fries were mediocre, according to my friend. They tasted like they had been cooked twice. As a guide, neither of us finished the hard little sticks. read more

Best coffee I have ever had!! Good food, homemade bread and cool history. I'd visit again!

Nothing special here. The food is ok and you get a breakfast or lunch. Nothing really stood out to us on our two visits to this establishment. There are better options galore in the area. read more

Lindsay's diner is a definitely worth a visit to this adorable diner in Keene. We stopped here on our travels from Vermont to Massachusetts. We sat in the adorable outside seating area that has greenery and flowers surrounding it to keep it quiet and quaint. On a Monday morning on the last day of June at 10 o'clock there was no waiting. The menu gave a good variety of breakfast choices, some standards and some unique to the diner. My husband chose a standard omelette but he chose to upgrade his toast to their HOMEMADE wheat toast. He commented more than once of how "awesome" that toast was. I enjoyed the avocado and tomato toast with added eggs on it....2 big slices of bread smothered with mashed avocado, each covered with 2 large slices of tomatoes, a fried egg on each slice and topped with slices of avocado. This toast was delicious. Needless to say I could only eat half and will enjoy the other half at home. The wait staff are prompt, attentive and pleasant. The place was clean and quiet. I definitely recommend Lindy's Diner for a great breakfast in this quaint college town. read more

Really it's zero. I just got kick out for bringing in a cup with coffee with coffee in it that I bought at Llindys came straght up to me and and. Ever said hello. He said " what do have here? I said coffee. He said,.very in a nasty way that there done allow out side be weaves. He didn't care that bought it there. Uncalled for and rude. I will never go back read more

Food not very creative, everything is deep fried. Service was horrible. Staff was yelling at a customer for no apparent reason, then she threw the food at the person. Why the management would allow such behaviour is beyond me. Ambiance, see above comment. read more

Finally got a chance to check out Lindy's! Every time I walk past here on the weekends there's always a line for brunch which is a testament to their devoted followers. I got the crab cake BLT and it was so good! That crab cake was top notch in my opinion and I would definitely get it again. Service was fast and attentive and I dig the diner vibe! read more

If I could give it six stars I would. Short wait was most definitely, truthfully would have waited damn near hours for the food we got. Menu has something for everyone, really appreciated the all day breakfast and lunch! Waitstaff was efficient, accommodating, and extremely pleasant. Isabella went out of her way to ensure we had an amazing experience. The cherry on top of our time at Lindy's Diner was the DELICIOUS and FRESH food. It came out quickly and was a delight to eat. Left excited to come back! read more

Best in Keene...suggest chicken fried steak...and coffee is good. Service good. Only negative...not enough options for groups of 5 or more.

We enjoyed our meal at the diner. We had simple eggs are easy with bacon. Wait staff were great as well

So Lindys closed for a bit as they have new owners. We were really looking forward to checking it out when it reopened. First, the good. They really did a lot of cleaning, much of the staff were kept, the booths were redone, the famous jukeboxes still in pllace, and all of the little things improved what was already a good atmosphere. The new menus were big and easy to read, but unfortunately the prices were crazy. Not on everything, but on alot of things. It cost the three of us over 30 dollars for breakfast. Dad and I both had the 2 eggs, toast, homefries, and bacon. Mom ordered an egg biscuit with home fries. We all had coffee. We asked our waitress for our bacon to be crisp, but it was limp and greasy. The homefries are frozen, not fresh, and mom said the biscuit was terrible. The toast was really the best part of it all. We had to wave down our waitress to get more coffee and even though mom told her she did not like her meal nobody even offered a discount or offered to fix it. The food was ok but for thirty dollars I want great. The sad part was we all left unsatisfied. I'm not sure if we will go back or not. read more

Good comfort food, but being from Texas, that is not how you serve chicken fried steak.....

I'm not generally a fan of diners but this one executed pretty well. Between a 3 and 4 stars but the benedict was good enough I'll round up. Stuffed waffle - 3/5. Basic Belgian waffle, middle layer of strawberries and blueberries with cream cheese. Nothing that creative and some of the blueberries had gone bad but solid. Eggs benedict with avocado - 4/5. Wonderful hollandaise sauce that was rich without being overwhelming. The avocados were a great pairing. read more

Great menu and super friendly atmosphere ! Love the counter seating. Some of the most creative breakfast & lunch specials I've seen. Huge & delicious portions. You won't leave hungry read more

if I could choose NO stars, I would. My husband and I went to Lindy's today - only because there weren't any other breakfast options available. We had barely sat down when the owner came over and sat down. He asked if I had written an online review. I said yes. He then grabbed our drinks and said, "get out". I had vowed after the last time to never go to Lindy's again. Now with this order to leave, this will definitely be the case. The owner was rude AND Belligerent. And I hope he reads this review!! read more

The BEST breakfast! I had never been to Keene but met a friend and had breakfast at Lindy's this weekend. Needless to say, I'll be making the extra drive to come back for sure. Atmosphere: the atmosphere here is like no other! You're surrounded by the hustle of Keene while also having ample parking right in front of the restaurant. The inside is the classic diner feel, which I absolutely love. It's not easy to find that true classic diner these days. We are outside under the tent, which was the perfect touch on a rainy summer day. Food: don't even get me started on the food. SO GOOD. We sat down around 11:30 so had some breakfast and some lunch items. The waffles, homemade toast, sweet potato fries, Caesar salad wrap, tater tots, eggs and more were all cooked to perfection. We were all stealing from each other's plates because everything looked amazing. Did I mention the homemade toast.....TO DIE FOR. Staff: the staff here were so incredibly friendly, they made me feel like family from the second I walked in. The new owners really know what they're doing here! Can't wait to be back to Lindy's!! read more

I had just stopped in at Lindy's diner in the middle of the morning at the diner. It was empty, except for one table. I asked for a booth and was refused to boothbecause I was only one person.when I asked again for the booth saying that there was no one there I was currently told that I could sit at a small table, but could not sit at a booth. This is never happened to me before. It's a diner, and I don't think this kind of welcome is appropriate. I will not go there again. read more

Didn't even want to rate this spot. The service is terrible. Put my name in the first time I asked the lady 10 or 15 minutes she says 10 I said u sure she said 15! So I run to the store that's a minute away and come back before 15 minutes and said oh we already called you, okay fine, I put my name in the second time told me I would have the first booth available, it's been a little over 20 minutes so we go in and check and some fat lady says oh we called you twice when I was WAITING outside and told some blonde chick exactly where I would be. Because there wasn't any parking out front didn't even take a number down but claimed she called me Save yourself time and money and don't come here worst service of my life customer service is trash I sat myself down on the first booth available because I was standing there and she didn't even call me to sit but she promised me a booth the first one available so I sat down and then she basically got us to get up and leave and asked us to sit on a bar when I specifically waited for a booth and skipped 3 tables thanks!! read more
