Breakfast bliss!
Kitty D.

Nick's is a nostalgic nook of comfort classics. Dig into perfectly cooked eggs and crispy hash browns served by a smiling server---you'll meet all employees as they greet, serve, refill coffee for every diner----they are not territorial! Enjoy the fifties music and leave filled!

We been coming to Nick's for years. Always fast friendly service and great breakfast options.

Diner vibe. CHECK! This diner is a great stop for a classic diner meal. We had a great waitress who got right to the point, got our order in and food on the table. No frills. I had the patty melt. It was fantastic. Greasy, crispy, and cheesy! We tried an chocolate egg cream, which was just ok. Glad we tried!

I placed my order and 5 minutes later I was served. They asked me literally the moment I sat down if the could get me something to to drink. The waitress stopped to take my order. They must pool tips for everyone to give such excellent service. The diner has a 50's theme with neon lights. . There is a grey and red color theme through out. They even have a soda bar with stools. There was 50's music playing. It took me back to my childhood. I had the spinach and Swiss cheese omelet. There were at least three eggs. Wheat toast and hash browns. They offered to refill my coffee while delivering my tab. I have to remember this place. I will return.

Egg casserole

This place certainly is reminiscent of the diners I grew up going to up north- there are many options on the menu. Started with a warm biscuit served with butter- very good then settled on Eggs Benedict which was a special. Although the eggs weren't done to my liking (too well done) I'd definitely order the dish again - the English Muffin was toasted to perfection and the Home fries tasted fresh and crispy. Our server was very nice and the ambiance is festive like an old arcade.

I've been hunting down a dinner that did the Monte Cristo. The best versions look like a meat and jelly filled French toast that is fried to a golden goodness. When I found it on the menu I bookmarked this place to try it out. Lunch hours are busy. The parking lot requires some patience and there's a wait to order because so many call on orders and they attempt to get hot orders out quick. The venue is cute but not fully 50's (they accept credit cards). The service is pleasant enough and food plates are packed. I had a few options with sides but decided on fries since I would be mostly eating in traffic on way to a meeting. Fries were good but the the sandwich left a lot to ... it was dry but not crispy and no real favor. It lacked the sweet and lacked the savory. I found the meat too thick for the sandwich. It was a meaty basic sandwich. Coworkers that in plaza agreed. While the Monte Cristo fell short the patty melt with onion rings was so good we didn't even take pictures. Cheesy goodness that fits in your hand and thankfully they shared. I'd return for that now.

Chicken Salad

so this is a very cool looking diner, and the staff is pretty wonderful. There are two dining spaces, so even if there's a weight, it will be very short. The menu is pretty fast, the pictures and descriptions make everything sound amazing. I wish I could say the food matched the descriptions, but it was just OK. The dishes are definitely 50s era size, so don't expect huge portions. We tried a little bit of everything breakfast, and while nobody complained, I can't say it was exceptional.

The turkey wrap
Mike M.

Wow, this place has some ambience. As you walk in you definitely get the 50s diner look with neon signs and pictures of performers from the era like Elvis Presley. Came on a Sunday after church and the place was packed at 12 noon. We had to wait for a table about 15 minutes but that's not a problem. Our server was exactly what your picture of 50s style place. I ordered a tuna melt, which I hadn't seen on the menu in quite some time, with french fries well done. My wife ordered a turkey wrap also with french fries. My daughter spoke up and before I knew it we ordered a chocolate egg cream. This is a very unique soda fountain drink that they made quite regularly in the 50s. It was very unusual and good, but I wouldn't say exceptional. An older gentleman sitting next to us told us a story about drinking them when he was a boy in New York City. Very entertaining. Anyway, my food was served, and I have to say that the tuna was not only delicious. it was just the way I remember. My wife said that the turkey wrap was delicious and that the turkey was like fresh roasted turkey that they sliced and put on the wrap. The french fries were crisp and delicious and we had a wonderful time talking about Nick's diner.

Cool place for breakfast, prices reasonable, service quick. Do be aware gets busy during prime time. 50's vibe is ok.

It's not easy to find a good diner in South Florida, especially a 50's themed diner with the ambiance, food and service we found at Nick's. Parking was easy in the lot and we got seated immediately in a booth. Our server was friendly and both our coffee and food came out very quickly. The restaurant must have expanded because it has two sides both with 50's decorations and a counter on each side . I was happy with my half order of biscuits and gravy with a poached egg. The biscuits were homemade and the gravy had a lot of flavor. My friend ordered a breakfast casserole. She enjoyed it but could only eat half as it was a lot of food. Prices were fair for this area and we would come again when in the neighborhood.

Andrew G.

I come here almost everyday for either breakfast and or lunch and I'm never disappointed. Good food, good service and plenty of easy parking.

They were pretty busy the whole time we were there. You can tell they get a lot of "regulars". The menu is large: lots of breakfast and lunch options. With a huge blackboard on the wall with daily specials listed. Service was wonderful, also. Attentive and caring. My husband ordered the meatloaf dinner with mashed potatoes and broccoli. He got gravy on the side. I'm guessing he liked it as there was not a crumb left on his plate when done. I ordered the chicken pot pie from the daily specials board. It wasn't as expected, but quite good. The top "crust" of the "pie" (served in a long oval dish) was a few layers of filo dough. Underneath were a lot of nice chunks of white meat chicken, peas, and other veggies. All in a cream of chicken like sauce that was very good. Forgot to mention that the pot pie came with a cup of soup. There were three choices and I got the Greek lemon soup. It needed an extra squeeze of lemon and a dash of salt, but it was decent. For dessert, we wanted to try their coconut cake, but they were out. (They close at 3). We settled for sharing a slice of some warm apple pie with whipped cream on the side. The pie was good. Breakfast specials look great. And there are a lot of other lunch items I'd like to try here as well. This is a keeper.

With Greek influenced menu items this place was a hit! I…read morealways look for my standard Meatloaf on diner menus and they had it! Delicious and generous portion of meatloaf and mashed potatoes! Great stop in this bright and cheerful diner with great Coconut Cake for dessert!

I ordered the two eggs scrambled all the way with cheese grits, which came out hot and fresh and so much flavor. I barely needed to add butter, salt or pepper. The pancakes were good. I suggest eat those first, stirred grits, and eggs sent them to the side and let them cool because it's gonna be hot all the way through. I also got a side of biscuit to go with my grits and eggs, which I added jam to. My husband ordered biscuits and gravy with cheese, grits, and eggs as well. The biscuits and gravy was massive. The biscuits are huge and warm. The gravy was so savory and they had chunks of sausage. Including tip for all of this, the only the less than $60. Without tip it was $42. And essentially, we both got two meals a piece. The service was quick. Our tables were constantly being clean or service and the atmosphere is so clean nice and fine.

Holy Howley's... what did I just eat?!…read more I stumbled into this funky little hidden gem in West Palm Beach and was not prepared for how damn good this place was. Started with the deviled eggs, and right away I knew something was different. Absolutely delicious. Then came the shepherd's pie and this is where Howley's completely threw me. Normally you're expecting that classic shepherd's pie with mashed potatoes over the filling. Nope. These people decided to cover theirs with the creamiest, cheesiest mac & cheese, bake the top until it's golden and crispy, and somehow make the whole thing work PERFECTLY. That combination with the savory filling underneath was absolutely insane. I'm sitting there looking at it like, who the hell thought of this?! But what really makes Howley's special is that it isn't just the food. The atmosphere, the people, the service, the personality of the place everything just works. It's funky, different, creative, unpretentious and feels like one of those places you accidentally discover and immediately want to tell everybody about. Amazing service. Amazing people. Amazing atmosphere. And food that actually surprised the hell out of me. Howley's, you got me. I'll absolutely be back.

We were in the neighborhood for an appointment at a dental lab and had about an hour to wait…read morebetween procedures. Not having had lunch we figured let's check a few local eateries. When I checked Howley's on yelp I was surprised that there were so many negative reviews. Howley's is managed by the Sub-Culture Group, and we dine regularly at Kapow in East Boca and Dada in Delray Beach, also managed by Sub-Culture. And while this is an entirely different type of food, I still wanted to take a chance and check them out. And we did and were pleased and more than satisfied. First, the decor is truly funky. I'm not sure if everything is from the 50's when they first opened, but it sure looked like it was. The restaurant was spotless, and the toilet was as well. The AC was strong which was appreciated. Artwork on the walls was not our style but must have been from a local artist. Ceiling fixtures were similar to what my parent's had in the late 60's. Jessica was our server and she was professional and positive in her attitude. Could not have asked for anything more. Decided to order a turkey club on rye bread ($15) with fries which were included and share it. Some of the reviews addressed how large their portions were and photos confirmed it. Jessica brought out the sandwich which was split in the kitchen with an ample amount of fries on each plate. The fries were delicious. Obviously freshly made and not sitting around, they were crisp without being overcooked. The turkey was described as fresh roasted sliced turkey and it sure was. Bacon was plentiful and crispy along with fresh lettuce and tomato. Mayo served on the side as requested. The sandwich was so large that I was only able to eat a half of my half, taking the rest home for the following day. Ordered a corn muffin and chocolate chip muffin to take home and each was fresh and delicious. ($5-$6) Howley's certainly warrants a visit if you are in the area and not seeking a trendy looking place which exists all over West Palm where the food may not be as good but the vibe is what is being sold with mediocre food. There was an on-site manager who visited our table to make sure all was good. I neglected to ask her name and apologize - she was welcoming and clearly on top of her managerial duties. Would I return? Sure would. And endorse fellow helpers to check them out.

Absolutely delicious, the pretzel was very light and the bear cheese had so much flavor to it. Three of us got burgers that were absolutely mouthwatering you bite into it and you went. oh yes, one bite burger!! This is the place to go. My girlfriend got a grilled chicken sandwich.
