Margie's Diner is our go-to breakfast spot in Paso Robles. Every time we're in town, we make a point to eat here because it's always consistent and delicious also the ambiance is great. Service is fast and attentive, the menu has plenty of great options, and the fresh orange juice is a must. Parking is easy too, there's always space available. A great way to start the day. read more

I came back again for a late breakfast and this place was packed. I had to park on the street next to Starbucks. I was careful this time not to get overcharged on my breakfast. I ended up ordering some egg whites, sausage with Hashbrowns, coffee. I had great service. My only gripe was my server didn't check on me enough to request more hot sauce and napkins. I opted instead to get up to wash my hands, but the restroom was always occupied. At first I thought it was out of order, but someone was in there taking a very long time. Ambiance: Busy with your normal cling, clang of forks spoons hitting the plate of an old fashioned diner. Food was excellent. Today was an off day. Next time, I'll come when the sunrises so I can watch it while I drink my coffee. Don't let my 3 star review stop you from visiting tho, you have to stop by and try it for yourself. See you some more on Yelp 2026 read more

I always wanted to have breakfast here. The outside is so cute and appealing as you get into town. The inside is retro-vintage, pretty darn cute with big windows. Coffee is good, smooth, doesn't have the bite of Starbucks, it's more bold and smooth, you can drink it black without making a face. The breakfast burrito is big. Cream of wheat is good but wish there were sliced almonds. The sourdough toast would have been better if it was toasted instead of slightly warmed. It took a long time to get our check, the servers' back was to the dining room for 10 minutes while she filled condiment bottles and waited for an order. Besides that she was a decent server, friendly. Overall, it was good. read more

I was leaving Paso Robles on a Sunday after a nice night at Justin winery and decided to get a nice breakfast. The concierge at the Allegretto recommended me go to Margie's Diner.

I recommend anybody going there if in town. You won't be disappointed. read more

Margie's Diner - Mushroom Sausage Jack Omelet - Diners Near Me - Paso Robles, California

Always the go to place, you know's gonna be great. Never disappoints. Kinda like a security blanket. It's your comfort food place. The tartar sauce is dill. (As you know a must for me) their bleu cheese is not sweet another must! Last nights fish & chips was the kind you drive to Morro Bay for! & they greet you like they're happy to see you! Always & they are just as friendly throughout your entire stay! Not always that consistent at other places. Totally five star diner food ( breakfast for dinner kinda place!) so if you can't decide between Mexican or Chinese... remember Margie's! The food is great & the people are friendly. read more

This is one of those hidden gems in Paso. And that is odd because this restaurant hides in plain sight! It's a great place to get breakfast, lunch or, dinner! You always get good service from the staff. They are always friendly and attentive to your needs. It definitely has a 70's to 80's diner vibe but that's a good thing. They make great food. That's the strong selling point for me. And, you can get breakfast all day long too! Try Margie's out. It is a great place! read more

Margie's is a classic diner attached to a Best Western motel. The classic 60's architecture had us guessing that it used to be a Howard Johnson's back in the day. We had breakfast there 2 days. It was our favorite b'fast place in Paso Robles. The place is super clean, the staff was very friendly. the breakfast selections covered the entire range of breakfast options. Coffee cups were never allowed to get below half full. Our group of four sampled omelets, pancakes, and cinnamon rolls. Everything was tasty and hot. I'm surprised that the Yelp rating isn't nearly as high as the Google rating -- it should be. Maybe Yelpers are breakfast haters? read more

I was really impressed with the decor and service received at Margie's diner. My wife and I ordered a side of onion rings and the chef salad. The portion sizes are huge. It was enough for both of us to eat and when we got our dessert, an apple pie with ice cream, we were already full but we still ate it LOL read more

You ask, you get. Oh my gawd, the onion rings are humongous. I wish this restaurant was closer to me. I couldn't believe the size of the onion rings. When I saw the picture on the website, I just knew I had to try this place and believe you me, I would not hesitate to come here again when I am in the area. You will not be disappointed, I promise you that. Good old fashioned, no frills, but absolutely delicious food and TBH, I wasn't really hungry, I just wanted thuse gigantic onion rings!!!! read more

Margie's is a Paso Robles gem hard to beat customer service by 3 of the best waitresses you'll ever meet (Karla,Brit,and Karina) and the cooks do an amazing job on some diner classics and some custom specials, the portion sizes of the food are massive. If you're in the area give this classic feeling diner a try you won't regret it. read more

Nostalgic old time diner. It was very busy on a Sunday morning but my wife and I were able to be seated within 5 mins. Staff is very friendly and attentive. Nice blend of traditional American diner foods with Mexican influences. Great bang for your buck as I got a filling meal of an omelette, hash browns, and a huge biscuit for under $20 (reasonable pricing in these times unfortunately) read more

Margie's Diner - Fish and Chips, sub fries with sweet potato fries - Diners Near Me - Paso Robles, California

Margie's has great food, great customer service, and busy with customers. It has that 50s diner feel with pictures of Elvis, Frankie Valli and The Four Seasons, along with others. There's plenty of options for breakfast (served all day), lunch and dinner. We went for breakfast but have also had dinner before. On this visit we ordered lunch, a bacon cheese burger w/onion rings, and a burger club sandwich w/fries. We just beat the crowd, (weekends are busier specially after 10:30am) we were greeted by the friendly hostess and seated right away. Drink orders were taken, all the employees were running around checking all the tables efficiently and with smiles. Both our meals were delicious and the burger/sandwich patties were juicy! Fries were crunchy, along with the onion rings, you can hear that crunch of the batter from the first bite and perfectly paired with ranch. We'll be back for the garbage chilaquiles, we saw some customers ordered them and looks like they are shareable size. So stop by Margie's for diner vibes and great food! read more

The worst food I' ve had in a long time. The biscuits tasted like white bread. The gravy was terrible. The omelet was a flat scrambled egg with cheese inside and the avocado laying on top. The waitress was awesome. read more

The service was great and the food was amazing! The portions were quite filling! We really enjoyed it.

This is cute diner style restaurant. We ordered their crepes special and a Chef salad. The crepes were light and filled with strawberries & bananas. They were topped with a strawberry coulis & powdered sugar. The chef's salad was a generous portion with a lovely presentation. Our food was very tasty. The service was just okay. Our busser brought our menus and water. She was very pleasant. Her service far outshone the server. Our server was not friendly. We only saw her when she took our order and brought the check. She didn't come didn't come to check if our meal was okay. She didn't smile or interact except to ask what we wanted. That said the meal was good and reasonably priced. The restaurant was clean & well maintained. read more

Was a full house late Sunday morning. Love the old diner feeling with the extra large booths for a larger group. Seated immediately. Drinks immediately l, food order and delivery was extremely timely! Portions good and food good. Very fair prices. Will be a repeat place to eat. read more

This was supposed to be a 5/5 stars review, but need to knock it down--see update below. Original: No question about it, would come again. I was in the mood for a diner style restaurant while passing through Paso Robles. This was a highly rated spot and I wanted to give it a try. It is hard to explain, but the food tasted "real" and of a high quality. It was very delicious. I got the avocado, mushroom, and cheese omelette; tasty and filling. My friend got the chili verde omelette with beans on the side and that looked incredible. It was great food that hit the spot. Update: I left a generous tip in the 20%-25% range. When the final charge was posted to my credit card, it appears they helped themselves to an extra dollar.... No where was it mentioned there was a credit card fee or any sort of fees. So not sure why they added an extra dollar. I want to believe it was purely an accident without bad intentions, but this is the first time this has ever happened and it does not leave a good taste in my mouth. read more

Not the same Margie's it used to be. However, the food was good and the staff was friendly. The food took a while to arrive but it was busy so not necessarily their fault. The only negative was they weren't great with coffee refills that day. Overall, it wasn't what I was expecting as it's definitely not the old Margie's, but it was good and aid go back. read more

The food is so good here. The service is always friendly and attentive. The avocado club is my favorite sandwich. Portions used to be bigger, but they're still a nice size for the price.

Breakfast was amazing!! Service was great and the best part was we were able to see the nfl games. Our group of 5 enjoyed our food. Restaurant was clean, waiter was friendly, and food was great! Everything you need for a great experience if you're from out of town. Parking can be challenging as they share parking with other restaurants and a hotel.

First time experiencing the breakfast. It was great. The waiter(s) were awesome. Atmosphere was amazing. I plan to come back again

a wonderful spot with a cozy, welcoming atmosphere. I ordered the chili verde omellete, and it was bursting with flavor. The combination of tender, well-seasoned pork and spicy green chili made for a delicious and satisfying meal. The food was overall quite good, and I was especially impressed by the friendly and attentive service. The staff made sure we had everything we needed and checked in regularly to ensure we were enjoying our meal. read more

Margie's Diner - Chili Verde Omelette - Diners Near Me - Paso Robles, California

Our favorite place to eat. We love the menu and the specials! We eat here at least once a week.

The past reviews deterred me from trying Margie's earlier. After hearing some positive hype around Paso (new management/kitchen staff), we gave it a shot. Despite being very busy, they were able to accommodate 5 of us pretty quickly Dec. 24 for breakfast. To say their menu is extensive is an understatement. I went with a "skinny" breakfast that consisted of an egg, bacon, hashbrowns and a biscuit. I could barely eat half of it. My folks had the same issue. They definitely could have shared (they're a bit older and don't eat as much). Service was outstanding, prices were great and the food was delicious. The food came out hot and fast. I see why people were lined up out the door when we left. I will definitely hit up Margie's again in the near future. read more

We love this place and always eat here in Paso Robles. Delicious diner fare but served with large portions and well plated. Everything we have had here from breakfasts to burgers and beyond have been terrific. They also serve beer and have a limited wine menu(wish they had more of a wine selection but Tobin James is great!) Service is always superb! Great place! read more

First., we were there at the back wall table where the Elvis and "Margies" sign is on Thursday June 19 @9:45 am. The waitress we had (tall dark haired) had SUCH an attitude right off the bat with a rude & impatient tone- you could tell instantly she did not want to serve us. I ordered the Cowboy plate, in which she was no help in answering my questions on it, shortly after talking our orders, I had to go up by where she was and tell her I didn't care for sausage & to leave it off- You would think i had just kidnapped her dog or something awful like that the way she acted. I had also told her i like my hashbrowns BROWN & cooked, if they are burned whatever! Good to me! I had VERY slightly cooked (which i feel was on purpose) and they were in fact BARELY cooked at that. She NEVER came back, not to ask if things were ok or to fill coffee. We asked another waitress for coffee. EXTREMELY BAD SERVICE- This person should NOT work with public and it is frightening that she does. It really was odd how she made it a point to avoid coming back to the table.... Really "in your face" attitude. Our trip was great, very expensive and i was looking forward to the breakfast since we found Margies online prior to us going. I wanted to ask for a manager but didnt want to make a scene & just left- Dont think i would EVER STEP FOOT HERE AGAIN read more

On a very busy Sunday morning we (4 of us) were able to get seated quite quickly in a comfortable booth. The facility was clean and well lit. The place was packed with people so it was a bit noisy. I was pleasantly surprised by the friendly greeter, attentive table service and even the quality of the food. My chili verde and eggs were really great. The chili verde sauce and refried beans were really tasty! The fruit bowl was big and full of fresh fruit. The coffee was typical restaurant quality, but fresh and hot. Overall we were all pleasantly surprised with our overall experience. Good job! read more
