Food has gotten outrageously expensive. Quality is ok, but def not worth $50 for breakfast with tip. Unbelievable for a diner!

Good food, good and friendly service, clean environment, good atmosphere, great prices.

Came in for breakfast. Ordered the hangover skillet and it was kind of disappointing. You hear skillet you have expectations of a hot plate. The food was bland. Service was solid. Our waitress was very nice and attentive. The atmosphere is nice and inviting. They have a bar, I wouldn't mind checking this place out for brunch sometime. read more

Pops Diner - Diners Near Me - Chesapeake, Virginia

Listening to R.E.S.P.E.C.T and eating this amazingly good Reuben sandwich just took me back to my experiences at the diners in New Jersey. My kids are bopping to their heads to the songs and telling me how much they enjoy eating here. Surprisingly this is my first time eating at this diner. They have had multiple awards through the years of having the best waffles, breakfast and burgers. Not only is this place great for families.. but kids eat free with every adult only for dining in. "One free kids meal off of kid's menu per $7.99 spent on adult entree for kids 10 and under. They serve breakfast, lunch and dinner.. The menu can be scanned with the QR code at your table. They also serve paper menu to abide by covid cleanliness regulations. They all are wearing masks and they close some tables due to social distancing. Honestly as far as food goes, my children ate all their food and I killed my Reuben Sandwich. They have real corned beef that has been shredded thick along with thousand island dressing and sauerkraut. They did not skimp on the corned beef.. and luckily I'm so happy it wasn't the corned beef sandwich slices. It was surely filling and delicious!! My sons got the potato and egg kids meal and the hamburger meal. For $5.00 kids meal.. I wouldn't mind getting them meals here again knowing it isn't breaking the bank. We got the chicken and waffles to go. As far as a first timer I have to give them a 5 for best service, quality and food. read more

Ventured here with the family for Sunday breakfast. Pretty popular place there were people pulling up and waiting. There was a wait of about 30 minutes for a party of 4. We added our name to the list and had to wait in the car due to social distancing. They took our phone number and gave us a call when we were seated. Our server never gave us her name but she was very friendly. Kids eat free for each adult entree. The Hubbs and I had the French toast combo with an added side of home fries. I love potatoes. If you are looking for home fries(the cubed kind) these aren't it. The kids both had silver dollar pancakes and I added a side of bacon. There is a full service bar....I had the Hawaiian Mimosa and a Peach Crush. I will definitely return and if you are in the greenbrier area check it out. read more

Went there for breakfast, just my husband and I. Food was not great. We ordered 2 western omelet and a waffle to share. Check was $70!!! Taxes were $12 .. Food was not the greatest, extremely pricy.. NEVER going back. read more

This restaurant has fast service with a smile and fantastic food!!! I highly suggest this place.

This was my 1st time here. It reminds me a lot like IHOP. If you like IHOP then this is the place for you. It's good for groups. It has nice diner choices. The food and services was good. The wait was 15 minutes on a Saturday. The menu has basic options with breakfast and lunch options. I liked the food I got which was the bacon classic with fried egg and Homefries. Other orders like the waffle and pancake was sweet. The other person from my party said the omelette didn't have flavor. The price don't match the quality. read more

Pops diner is a popular spot in Chesapeake next to a great shopping area. Make sure to get there earlier or call ahead to put your name down for breakfast on the weekends. Their waffles are the main thing that separates them from the "IHOP's" of the world. Light, fluffy and crisp. If you want a solid affordable breakfast while shopping I recommend Pops. read more

We went here for breakfast. It was very good breakfast fare. I had the southwest omelette. Both eggs were fluffy and there were plenty of fillings including the sausage. It was slightly spicy as you would expect. Generally it was a very good omelette. I also had a side of bacon which was also very good. I skip the toast and potato side because I stay low carb. They gave me fruit instead. I was pleasantly surprised because they gave me strawberries instead of the dreaded melon that most places serve as fruit. My sons both got pancakes. They were very good according to them and came with powdered sugar. My 7 year old ate for free which was a nice bonus. The bottom line is breakfast was quite good here, and I will come back when I am in the area again. read more

Wait on Saturday morning was about 20min which wasn't bad. Food was ok. Except the pancakes. I got the cinnamon roll ones and my daughter had a regular pancake in her breakfast. They tasted good but we're RUBBERY! Service was ok. Overall just... Ok. Looking for GREAT? I'd skip this. In a pinch with picky eaters? Might be worth your time. read more

Ashton was a fantastic server! Food was so good!! Waffles are light and delicious!! Atmosphere is comfortable

I don't normally leave reviews but after driving it by here every day I decided to give it a try and got a meat lovers omelette which was big and delicious and very quick as well read more

The food sucked!!! My wife and I went for the first time 7/20/24. it was about mid morning and the diner was not busy at all. We were seated right away which I figured was unusual for a Saturday morning. Our server came and greeted us then took our order. Little did I know, this would be the best part of our experience. We ordered what we were told were very popular items, so when the food came out so quick we thought nothing of it. This was the most Disgusting and Under cooked slop on a plate I've ever had placed in front of me. Their Home Fries were bathed in butter before being cooked. That's all you could taste...BUTTER. The Biscuits and Gravy had a taste similar to sucking on a cardboard box. The French Toast was the most disappointing. It was extremely Under Cooked!! The edges looked okay but as soon as I touched it with a fork, I felt insulted. It Looked like when you open a can of biscuits it was so raw!!! I'm a big guy...6'-4" 300lbs... I usually eat 2 meals at a restaurant and I LOVE breakfast food. I've NEVER left food on a plate....until today. I was fed up and when the server came to check on us we asked for the check there was no need to complain. My wife and I decided without uttering a single word never to come back. I WOULD NEVER RECOMMEND THIS PLACE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! read more

This was our first road trip post-pandemic. We were looking for a special breakfast. We read online about the Captain's Omelet w/ shrimp crab and spinach - and we were both compelled to try it. The service was friendly - and we got coffee right away. Coffee was strong & hot & good. Served in Pop's branded mugs, which is fun. The food came out quickly - very well prepared and fresh. The omelet was from start to finish excellent. I had home fries and an English muffin - muffin perfectly toasted - potatos were hot & flavorful with sauteed onions - yum! My companion had grits and a biscuit, which he thought were just fine. Would definitely return! read more

Food was mediocre. We were charged a standard gratuity, even though we only had 5 people in our party, and the manager wouldn't do anyting about it. They even charged it on a free child's meal and charged the full adult drink price for a child-sized drink. Do not recommend. read more

Service is really good. They make you feel at home. Even when crowded the wait is reasonable. Breakfast is really good. I love the home fries with onions. Best home fries I've had and I grew up in the south. I prefer hash browns, But not at pops! The bacon and sausage have amazing flavor. B fast sausage taste home made! I will try French toast next! Cafe style food! read more

Pops Diner - Eggs, home fries with onions, sausage links and bacon. - Diners Near Me - Chesapeake, Virginia

Mmm... diner. Generally, the best options for breakfast and as it was 7:30 in the morning, breakfast is what it was going to be. I chose the corned beef hash and eggs, which arrived with a very big portion of corned beef hash that was more corned beef than hash. Poached eggs that were perfectly soft after I carefully scooped them from the bowls so as to avoid spilling water on my home fries. Service was great. I sat there for a good half hour poking away on my laptop (writing Yelp reviews, if you must know) while my waitress refilled my coffee cup to the point where I couldn't type from too much caffeine. Good coffee. Totally recommend Pop's. BTW, good spot for meetings. Some sort of breakfast meeting/training session was going on in the side room. read more

Good was excellent waitress gave perfect service. Definitely returning!!! Shrimp and grits were awesome!!!!

I visit Pops diner every time I come to town. The food is great and the staff is friendly. We love coming here!

The food reminds you of the comfort food you will find in a diner in a small town. The portions was plentiful and has various types of food to choose from. Had breakfast food at 1:00 pm so it was cool they still served breakfast. Home fries are real potatoes sauté like country style cooking and the Waffles are Belgian. Hubby had fried catfish with grits and eggs. Haha! Where can you get that dish often. Fish was breaded in cornmeal so it stayed crunchy. Pretty good would definitely go back. Kids under 10 eat free everyday! That's the best part!! read more

Pops Diner - Black and blue burger topped with onion rings! - Diners Near Me - Chesapeake, Virginia

First time here. An extensive breakfast and lunch type menu. Fabulous service from Natalie. Good sized portions with all of our food being served at proper temperatures. The she crab soup was very good. The Alabama Chicken Sammich was fantastic. My husband enjoyed his burger and fries as well. Finishing off with a freshly made coffee and blueberry bread pudding made us believers and we plan to return with friends and family. I noticed on the menu a greatselecting of reasonable prices cocktails but I don't think they are open past 3. I bet brunch time on weekend would be wonderful, too. read more

We happened upon this diner and we couldn't have been happier. I noshed of a very well made chicken salad sammy that contained lots of white meat chicken chunks, red grapes and pecans. The French fries were cooked just right for shoestrings. The were nicely salted and hot. It was a good meal, but nothing that made more of a memory. read more

Pops Diner - Chicken Salad Sandwich with French Fries - Diners Near Me - Chesapeake, Virginia

I am pleased to say that not only does Pops diner partake in the safety of their customers due to Covid with social distancing and wearing their masks but the food is so good. The prices are affordable and the customer service is wonderful I had the pleasure of coming in with my children and of course children can be picky and needy but our server was very patient with us and even help suggest items off of the menu. We eat at Pops Diner at least once a month. And we always get the same good service and good food. read more

Didnt feel like waiting 45 min for s table at the other egg place in Chesapeake, Stopping in for a quick meal with family shouldn't make you aggravated. Plus is that they have bloody Mary's. Seated immediately, hubby's orders to their hearts delight including warm syrup. The waffles are tasty and pretty also. Delightful meal and we are on our way read more

The food was very cool when it came out. It was not hot. The service was bland, our server did not once ask us if the food was okay or if we needed anything. The ambiance was very good, what, we expected from that to what we got made for a disappointment. But I will try again. And this was our first time here... read more

Came here on a whim with some friends after a car meet. It's located in the Greenibrier part of Chesapeake, so there's plenty of other choices for food in and around the area. Arrived around 11AM on a Saturday and we were seated immediately. My friends that I came with said the food here was very good, especially their breakfast offerings. I wasn't in the breakfast mood so I opted to get their Chicken tenders and Shrimp Avocado wrap to go (I had a lunch date afterwards and only came to hangout). Chicken tenders were standard, nothing too special, and slightly dry. The ranch that came with it was good but had an unusual texture. The shoestring fries were soggy by the time I was able to eat it (about 20 mins later). My fiance said her wrap was kind of bland. The service was quick and the food came out quickly. I think If I were to come back, I would get their breakfast. The parking lot is extremely small and can congested easily during peak times. The prices were pretty reasonable. SN: Kids eat free every day with the purchase of an adult entree read more

We didn't wait too long to be seated which is a great surprise since it was during a holiday weekend. We ended up here for our brunch since the original place we wanted to try out was closed due to a death in a family and it was a small Mom and Pop place in Chesapeake. Oh well, next time. I ordered the French toast with sausage links, hubby ordered the chicken cheese and egg biscuit which were both good. The chicken biscuit looked like it was homemade, Son ordered the Pop's waffle combo with scrambled eggs and he enjoyed his meal. My daughter on the other hand ordered Mac and cheese which she said it tasted weird , so she didn't finish it. It was bland. My husband tried a bite and said it tasted off character. We mentioned this to one of the managers before checking out and she apologized and offered a sprite or ginger ale for my daughters upset stomach which was nice of her. Kids under 12 are free everyday just as long you order from the kids menu. So, no additional comp. Other than that, we had a great dining experience. read more

The food was very good and tasty. All the waitresses very very pleasant and helpful. Very clean restaurant

We really like this place for breakfast and lunch. Their pancakes and waffles are spot on. Prices are decent and kids always eat free

Pops Diner is known for there good breakfast and sandwiches. This restaurant is conveniently located to everything, close to the interstate, hotels, banks, shopping center, and even a mall. Whenever I'm in the mood of having breakfast in the morning before work, I come here. I usually give them a call and put an order in for pick up, which takes a good 10-15 minutes to fix up. I order the Pop's Special which comes with either two strips of Applewood smoked bacon, two sausage links, or two turkey patties with two eggs (cooked your way), toast (white or wheat), and a choice of Pop's Home Fries, Grits or Fruits... I have tried their bacon and sausage links which were delicious, and their Pop's Home Fries are bomb (greasy but oh so good.) $7.49 Overall, portions are huge that sometimes I still have left overs for lunch haha. One day I'll come and actually dine in and try other dishes. read more

Came here on a Sunday afternoon, me for breakfast, and my little one for lunch. Never mind that kids eat free all the time, food was great. Service even better. I chose the french toast combo with eggs and sausage links. My son had the kids grilled cheese and fruit. Our server was so attentive, at first I began to think she was trying to shoo us out for other customers. This wasn't the case. She was just very attentive. I'll definitely be coming back! read more
