Chicken & Waffles
Philip Z.

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.

Lobster Croissant with fries. Yum. A special.

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.

Logo'd coffee cups (although this one has tea in it).

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.

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.

Amazing service and amazing food. Metered parking about $1.50 for one hour. Homemade breads. Indoor and outdoor seating. Takes credit cards.

Crab cake blt
Lynn N.

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!

Ham, mushrooms, spinach with cheese, omelet special of the day

See all

I have had good food there, but I also have had half cooked pancakes there. I didn't even know that was possible.
