    Expanded old time diner with short counter and dozen or so tables. Broad breakfast and lunch menu, with dinner awaiting the hiring of another cook for an evening shift. We three road travelers on the way to Newport News were seated at the round corner table in the remains of the stainless railroad car facility and served by a helpful efficient server. First the coffee, hot and strong arrived in a variety of old mugs. Two breakfasts of a Veggie Omelet and Sausage, Egg & Cheese (provolone) on Kaiser came forth from the kitchen, along with a Chicken Salad on Wheat Toast sandwich. They were all decent, but uninspiring. My sammy was made from locally produced pork sausage patty, which was thick and tasty, but the roll was barely a Kaiser and was uber oily from sitting on the grill. Had to napkin my fingers with each bite. The Chicken Salad was fresh, and would have been better with a little extra in the mix like relish or other garnish. Adequate. The omelet looked good next to the hash browns and rye toast, and it was consumed completely without comment by our third. Milford Diner is a popular locals spot, particularly with the older folk, and it deserves credit for providing a comfortable space for the community to hang out while open.

    We came on a Sunday and there was a 25 minute wait; we decided to stay and were very glad we did stay. Great, efficient service, very tasty food that felt specially home cooked with love, and fantastic prices. I would most highly recommend this diner!

    Philly omelette  Over easy eggs, bacon & home fries.

It is an unassuming restaurant with a decent amount of seating space both inside and outside. Very clean but nothing fancy which is fine with me as long as the service and the food is good and boy did they deliver on that part. We were seated quickly on a Saturday morning and almost immediately greeted by a very friendly server. We ordered omelets with potatoes and onions and the cinnamon role pancakes. Everything was delicious. The portions on the potatoes were great, although my husband would have preferred them crispier the server told him to ordered them deep fried next time. All of the food was excellent and the pancake was to die for, every bit was a pleasure. I loved this place, it was everything I want in a great breakfast and I will defiantly be back.

It was okay, but nothing special. Two people who ordered seafood, including stuffed shrimp, did not enjoy theirs at all. My husband took a bite of something on his plate, and before he could ptotest, a busser had removed his plate right out from under him without even asking if he was finished. But perhaps the worst thing was when someone asked for melted butter to dip their seafood into, instead of the oil blend dip that was provided, and was told they didn't have melted butter. Yet butter was provided for someone who ordered a baked potato. Maybe that was not real butter? Or maybe it was whipped buttet. Regardless, it seems ludicrous for a restaurant to be unable to serve melted butter for seafood dishes. As one of our group lamented, it's probably better to order seafood only at a seafood restaurant. However, if the management of this restaurant reads these reviews, please know that real butter should be an option, not only for seafood but for things like pancakes and waffles. And while I'm at it, real maple syrup for breakfast items would be appreciated, instead of that corn syrup imitation syrup stuff.

It took a few for minutes for our server to come to the table. She was not overly friendly but seemed to be okay. We ordered a Bacon Omelette with potatoes and wheat toast and a BLT breakfast sandwich. Food was out in a reasonable amount of time, brought by someone from the kitchen. The food was good, nothing great but decent. We did have a cinnamon roll and it was absolutely delicious. We never saw our server again, she never checked on us, and I would have liked some more tea and some more jelly. We waited about 2o minutes to get our bill after we were done, our plates neatly put together and sitting on the table and she never came to our table. We went up other her ask for our check and she told us to just pay at the cash register. So, all in all, not a great experience. I saw other waitresses who were attentive to their tables so I think it was just our waitress. I didn't see her around much so maybe she was doing something else, making coffee's or something. I think the fact that she did not want to bring our bill was the worst. With all the good options around I am not sure I will be retuning but it is worth a try to make your opinion.
