The food was amazing and the service was great, the server was very sarcastic and funny overall it was a great time I would love to go in again. read more

I eat here on a regular basis, once every couple of months over the past several years, This location is consistently inconsistent. But, they're open blizzard or wind or missing food delivery or. What they can cook is based on the employee at the moment, and whether the fryer is on or off. But, you'll get something to eat, hot, fresh made, with a smile. read more

Sorry, no pics of food was too hungry and did not wait to take a picture. Finished up work for the day before heading back to Casper and decided to grab some lunch. It was a cold and very windy day so a cup of chili sounded perfect. The young lady who waited on us said that she had just made it. And the chef said that she makes the best chili in town. Ordered a cup of chili with a side of sour cream. The chili came out quick and fast hot with a large serving of cheese and onions on top. I love a good onion on top of chili. It adds just enough crunch. Asked for my side of sour cream and was informed that they did not have any. We also ordered the jalapeño poppers. They were just OK. I prefer my jalapeño poppers to be stuffed with cream cheese and not cheddar cheese. It gave it a weird texture and I didn't really care for it. It was decorated cutely for the holiday season of Halloween. If you have a large party, you may be split up at different tables as they do have a few booths and then a counter to sit at. Not very large, but the good thing is they are open 24 hours so if you do crave some food in the middle of the night like a breakfast hashbrowns and potatoes, this will be your place to go. read more

Cute little 50s diner. Everyone was very nice and friendly. The food was good and so was the milkshake. read more

Wow! This was the most redeeming quality of having to stay in Rawlins, WY for the night after car troubles. I didn't have the highest hopes because our hotel check-in had been in Penny's Diner, and it seemed it would not be open to the public until 6pm; it seemed to only serve workers prior to this time. The decor was super-charming with the swinging hips Elvis clock, old records including Barbra Streisand, and the retro print tabletops. My son and husband got hand-spun mint chocolate chip shakes and they brought the overflow in a metal cup- plenty for everyone. I ordered the Ruben, and was shocked by the delicious crispness of the sandwich and tater tots. Only gripe was they are short-staffed, as the signs indicate. Cody was working overtime to get everyone's order made swiftly before our very eyes in their open kitchen. Definitely a spot to check out if you find yourself in Rawlins, WY. read more

DO NOT stop in at this Diner unless you want two things: 1. Bad Service 2. Mediocre Food Service was definitely almost the worst service I've ever seen at a restaurant. Thought that this cool old diner would be a nice place to stop at but I was very wrong. To eat at this restaurant, you have to have a reservation, and I still wouldn't even reserve food here ever. Not worth it Got my food and once I got my food, I never was checked back in by the server at all, and even when it came time for me to get my check they never came back until eventually after 10 minutes they finally decided to give me my check. Felt very unwelcome. Steer clear of this diner if you want good friendly service and good food regardless. Very rude in how I was treated and there was no one else in the restaurant. If I could give zero stars, I would. read more

I would give zero stars if I could. We stayed at the hotel behind the diner. They give you a menu when you check in and they have cards in the hotel rooms with QR codes telling you to order online. Don't do this! It's a trap. We ordered online and when we went to pick up the order they told us they had been trying to call us because they didn't have the shakes we ordered or the mashed potatoes and gravy. This was no big deal although they shouldn't advertise things they don't have. The real issue is that the person said even though they couldn't give us our order, they were unable to refund any money!! What??!! How is that possible? Open the register and give me the money back! But they did not. Why would they advertise to order online knowing they don't have half the menu items and if they know they can't refund online orders (which makes no sense) why are they letting customers order online??! They gave us a few cookies instead of our money back. They gave us the rest of the order, but instead of fries they gave us tater tots. They are disorganized and the food was mediocre at best! Trust the other bad reviews and steer clear! The only thing this place has going for it is that it's a cute place. Totally not worth the money or the hassle. Terrible customer service! read more

Wouldn't even seat us, gave no explanation. There were spots open, it was very strange "we're not taking orders right now". Maybe do a better job explaining this so people don't feel like they got turned away?? read more

Food was nothing special at all. We ate here twice, one breakfast and one lunch. For lunch we had a chili burger and a bowl of chili. The chili burger was flavorless and the chili was water and a bit of meat and things. Breakfast HAD to be good... right? How do you mess up breakfast? The chicken fried steak was way too crunchy. And gristle can be seen by the cook, so why even cook it? read more

Great food cooked in front of you. Friendly staff. Cute 50's decor. Nice stop on a road trip.

Our short order cook was also our waiter and he whipped up two BLT sandwiches that were delicious. All while keeping us entertained with his jabber. The decor is 50's diner style. read more

Nice little joint, good food, hard workers obviously overworked and understaffed but she delivered well. Food was good, well cooked to order and served quickly. A great breakfast I had! 4/5 read more

We tried this place out despite some negative reviews and WOWZA! What a great experience! William was not only our server, but the amazing cook! fantastic onion rings and even better burgers. A welcoming smile and great food was needed on our trek through Nevada. you've got to try it! read more

The food was really good. It was really nice. Cute 50s diner and the server was really nice. The food came out pretty quick. It was nice and hot. The only thing bad about the meal. What's the tater tots? They weren't as good as the burger, but it was still really good. don't trust bad reviews and trust the good reviews. I hope you like it. read more

We were passing through town and looking for a place for lunch. We found Penny's Diner. We each had the western burger, one with fries and the other with onion rings. The burgers were very good and the fries and onion rings were great. The staff is very friendly and checked back with us a couple of times to make sure we're doing ok and to see if we needed anything. Whet a great find. We highly recommend it. It is also clean and the decor is reminiscent of the traditional 50's & 60's diners. read more

The service was shabby, I tried to order a malt and they told me they were out of ice cream and malt. They were out of some vegetables for our Philly steak, the quality the food was pretty poor at best. They are open 24 hours and Rawlings does not have many options, but this is not an option you should take advantage of. The ambience or the building is cute but everything else is really questionable. read more

We were excited to stop at this super cute diner. As we walked in, we were greeted at the door by the...we assumed..manager who asked how many were in our "party". We had 6. He refused us service. Said he only had two workers and they couldn't accommodate us. We told them we were in no hurry, there were other diners there, but he said no. So we can't attest to the food , but the service was kind of stinky. read more

Wish I give zero or negative stars. Waitress / cook was rude to everyone. Must use phone to order since they have no menus and get mad when you ask for one. Then tell you that they have problems with online order....huh? As others have noted they were out of a lot of food but wouldn't tell you what unless you asked for it. Seemed very shady. AVOID this place!! Nice looking place but completely mismanaged and terrible staff. read more

Food was great! Highly recommend the western burger. Service was friendly and fast, Leroy was very friendly. The ambiance of the old diner feel really was a classic (the only thing was to add some variety to the music)!! Great place in Rawlins read more

Stopped here on the way to Sturgis. What a wonderful group of people. They were closing the minute we walked in but they said come on in. Had the best meal we had on the road since we started. We will be back next year keep those doors open for us. read more

We stopped for lunch. I got the pancakes, eggs and sausage. It was good and a lot of food. My wife got chicken tenders and French fries. She took half home. Not many options in that area and we would recommend them for a lunch stop read more

Unless you're a guest, you can't eat here. My husbands RR layoff is here and they would not accept me as a customer since I was only visiting him. read more

Was "greeted" by a cook refusing us service because I have a service dog. Reasoning stated was because the seats are "too close to the cooking area". We asked to be seated in the back "closed off" section and he repeated himself again about the seats being too close. We did go into the back corner, but honestly...after 10 hours of driving I didn't have the energy to argue about ADA compliance overrulwhatever "health code" nonsense he was spewing. On top of that, the fryer was down, only 3 booths available, and the place looked like crap. We left. Educate yourselves before you catch a lawsuit. read more

The 24 hour diner was closing when we arrived around 1pm in the afternoon. They ran out of food.

This was quite the experience lol actually so bad. We came with our kids on our way through going home. The service was the worst I've ever had. But wasn't expecting much anyway. Burger sitting on the grill forever our food was out so late. It was burnt. Took forever and it wasn't a packed house either. read more

What can I add to the other semi-recent reviews. Well the fryer is still down. I guess they won't fix that. Sign on the wall yellowing with age asks for patience as they are short on staff. I guess that is just normal now. The fly strip hanging near the front desk was so fully staffed that the flies hovering over me must not stick any longer. I have to say that the guy serving me tried really hard, and brought me a nice fresh side salad. He just did not hear that I said chef salad. Yah, it looked like half the seating was roped off for whatever reason. It's too bad, the diner concept is pretty cool and could be so much better than it is. read more

Cool place as it is a throw back to the classic 50s diner. Breakfast served all day and they are open 24 hours a day. Excellent burgers, hand dipped shakes, freshly baked cinnamon rolls. My favorite is the Reuben sandwich with tots. Friendly staff that goes above and beyond. These were my wife's pancakes. Everything was delicious. read more

Cozy from the past type breakfast / lunch diner fast service good food on your gas up or charge up stop in rawlins Wyoming

We headed in with high expectations which were not met. First there are no real menus but a qr code. Payment plus tip needs to be made before you can place your order. Then, the service was slow. My husband got his grilled cheese sandwich, cold, and was finished before I got any of my meal. The cottage cheese that was ordered and paid for was not available. The fries came as an after thought. We definitely would have eaten elsewhere had we known. read more

We stopped here on our way from Denver to SLC. Very cute retro diner in a converted Airstream. Menu is concise with all the deliciousness you'd expect including hand spun shakes, greasy burgers, and breakfast all day. They're literally open 24 hours. Service is friendly and ambience nostalgic. read more

Food was mediocre. Hashbrowns were no shade of brown. They were out of ham. The ladies bathroom was filthy. The counter wasn't clean. When I sat down I had to push a dirty plate and silverware out of my way, and the mess sat there throughout my meal. My husband never got the milk he ordered. We heard one of the people who was preparing food that she was so sick that morning she passed out on bathroom floor. Stay away!!! read more
