Great, old-school "diner" that serves a tasty and affordable breakfast, or traditional lunch options such as sandwiches and burgers. No amazing frills, no overly-ambitious menu. Just some good, down-home options that leave the belly full (and the wallet intact). While the decor is definitely well-worn, it never feels worn-out. Clearly they're focused on keeping things affordable for guests, rather than wowing them furniture. And frankly, that's just fine by me. The service is friendly and timely - someone is always there to fill up your coffee or check-in on you. Always enjoy my visits here. read more

This restaurant was recommended by a few of our friends and we had to try it out. The restaurant is located right on Rt 23, which makes it easy to find. It's a bit dated, but they make it up with service and delicious food. Food: really solid breakfast food! Not a ton of options, but just enough to make sure everyone will be covered. I had the omelette, which was cooked perfectly and was absolutely delicious. Parking: ample parking Service: staff seemed a bit short handed, but they were nice and efficient. Overall this place has a lot of charm and hometown feel. This will definitely be our new breakfast spot moving forward. read more

A long standing breakfast and lunch restaurant across the street from Owen J Roberts High school. We stopped in with our family and we're seated immediately. The place is small, but they have a breakfast bar for smaller groups to get seated more quickly. It has tons of big backs for sale through the restaurant and it was fun to look around. We ordered pancakes, French toast, bacon, scrapple, home fries, and eggs. Everything was very good. Served quickly and hot. The kids enjoyed it all and we had plenty of leftovers to bring home. It was a great time and we will be back to have lunch. read more

See all

I love this place for breakfast. Fast service, good food. My over easy eggs were perfect! It really has a diner feel to it, more than a restaurant. I'd treat the food like I would at a diner. Breakfast, YUM! Lunch, OK! Dinner, No! But I have only been once and they are only open for dinner on the weekends, but this is my rule of thumbs for diner type places... Our server, Leo, was prompt and efficient, if not overly friendly. Really perfect IMO. Food came out hot and fast. My bacon was crisp, my toast dark. Breakfast potatoes seemed very buttery, but they were also good! I got the Big Breakfast for 9.99. 2 pancakes, 2 eggs, 2 bacon and potatoes. Side of toast for a buck. 2 tea bags with my order of tea. I'd eat here again in a heartbeat. Place needs updating, but it has a bit of a cracker barrel feel to it. Check it out if you are in town and see if you can finish the Big Breakfast. I failed, but was so happy to try! read more

Ridge Restaurant - a sign for the restaurant - Diners Near Me - Pottstown, Pennsylvania

It was 4th of July and very busy. Which was fine we weren't in a hurry. However we sat down and were told by the waitress she would be right back to clean the table and get us menus. After 20 mins still sitting at a sticky table with no menus the waitress rushed by again saying I'll be with you in a minute. Ok no problem. She was happily chatting with two men that were either family or friends. After another 10 mins of her waiting on every table but ours we stopped and her asked if we could at least get menus. She ran by saying I said I would be with you in a minute. I replied that she had said that 30 mins ago and that we would just like menus and a clean table. She rolled her eyes and went over to another waitress and loudly exclaimed "you have to take that table they want to order and I don't have time to help miss busy over there". We had been sitting at a dirty table with no menus and not even a cup of coffee for over 30 mins. I wasn't rude just stated she kept saying she would be right there but never came back. At this point this nicest waitress Miss June came right over. Wiped the table, got us menus and apologized for the wait! Our orders were taken and we had a delicious meal with 20 minutes from the start of June taking over. Everyone gets busy and holidays are crazy, but being rude and concentrating more on your family customers instead of just being nice and getting other customers taken care of was not the first waitress's priority here. We've been here several times and love the food and June! However, if I walked in and she was the waitress I would leave immediately. 30 mins without a hi, clean table, or even a menu is not acceptable and having an attitude with customers because your busy and short staffed is completely unacceptable. But June and the food saved the day! read more

Went for breakfast with a friend this morning. The food was delicious, the staff was very quick and friendly. I will definitely be going back! read more

Didn't really know about this place til we googled a breakfast place coming from marsh creek. Definitely an old fashioned diner nestled right off of route 100. The place was buzzing so we had high hopes for the food. The pancake was huge and delicious. A place to stop if you want typical breakfast, diner food. No healthy options here! read more

Nice small down home stop. Very friendly staff and customers not to mention the food. Will certainly be back.

Awesome local eatery. Standard diner fare. The pancakes are as big as your face and will send you home with a full belly!

Mom and pop type place with excellent pancakes! In the fall, their pumpkin pancakes are absolutely delicious!

This place is very cute and homey; you can tell everyone there has been coming for years. The pancakes are giant and should be one of 6our first stop read more

We stumbled upon this restaurant by chance when we were in the area for a football game. It gives you a small town feel. Very friendly staff. Food was delicious. Very good diner food with a homemade taste. We hope to be in the area again so we can come back for another great meal. read more

Everyone there was so nice and the portions were huge! i love all the decor and the diner-esque atmosphere, most definitely will be back :)

I eat here often because I live close by. Every time it is very good. The food is always great and the service is friendly and fast. It feels like a family atmosphere when you eat here. Also the prices are very moderate which is a plus. Overall, great experience whenever I come here. read more

Overall, pretty average breakfast food. Pretty slow service. Interior could definitely use some updating.

The breakfast was good, there are many omelets to choose from. I got tomato slices instead of home fries and the scrapple was delicious.

food is very good and service is quite fast, but workers aren't very friendly. specifically the server Mary, as she has been rude to my friends and I several times. Recently she gave us the biggest eye roll because we needed two checks instead of one. Last week she yelled at us for not having our money ready. We have been overcharged twice because they don't trust us to pay tip, although we have tipped well every time. Don't get me wrong, some of the waitresses are very kind, but the attitude and disrespect we get from others is terrible. read more

The breakfast is the best for the price you pay. Their home-fries are delicious . Plenty of food. The dining room could use an overhaul .

We had breakfast here. The waitress was excellent. Food was plentiful and the prices were affordable. Quick service.

Food is generic diner food. Breakfast is good. Service is subpar, though. Wait forever for a waitress to come to your table and wait even longer for your check. Good comes quickly, though. Make sure you bring cash as they don't take credit cards. read more

The quintessential Pennsylvania mom and pop diner. Great breakfast! My husband loved the style of the hash browns, though they weren't the best I've had. They were slice style. The pork roll was good, and the scrapple bangin'. It was very affordable. All of the waitresses were older women, which is cute and adds to that mom and pop feel. Definitely plan to go back for brunches in the future. read more

Breakfast here isn't too bad, but any other meal I've had there is just plain terrible. Of course, I'll go back, but only for breakfast. read more

The ridge is a great restaurant but one waitress named Mary is very rude she blew me and my friends off for an hour for a box and she overcharges us because she thinks we won't leave a tip. She is very rude and disrespectful. read more

I was meeting friends here for breakfast, I am not from the area. I was amazed at how tasty everything was! The food was plain, but delicious. Definitely fresh and five people ate for the price that two could eat from where I live. I would definitely go here again! Hoping to visit the area again soon! read more

This place is cheap, all the customers have white hair (are over 70), and the food kinda sucks. If you aren't elderly the waitresses are kinda bixchy towards you. Whatevaaaaaaaaaa their food tastes GROSS! read more

Great family place to eat. Clean and priced reasonably. When visiting buck town a must have for sat or sun breakfast

Very good place to stop in and eat. The price is very right it like a flashback to 1980 $2.99 $3.99 for all most everything you could want. Five star place read more

The Ridge has been operating since before I was born and I'm fairly certain the joint hasn't been updated since. The entire place is filthy which makes it less than desirable to eat a meal there. The staff are not friendly and the food is not made to order. Cash only. They need a complete overhaul. It's located in a killer area and could be making major cash. read more

food very good and service too,, some of the customers go there are very rude and demanding,, I want it now,, what idiots and fools customers read more

Despite the waitress not knowing that a BLT can be eaten at breakfast, and having to check in the kitchen, the service and food was excellent. And I got my BLT. Fast service, good breakfast, great prices. read more

This is the best breakfast/lunch you will EVER have. Prices are fabulous also. Friendly, kind employees round this out to a full 5 stars! Try it out if you're near Rts. 100 & 23 in Bucktown, Pa. read more

I was really pleased with the quick service here. It seems to be more of a local place with repeat customers, so my husband and I felt a little out of place with it being our first time. When you walk in you can just sit anywhere you want, and be aware you'll need cash to tip when you leave! They don't allow you to tip on your card. Overall a very pleasant experience with great food (we both got omelettes) and a homey atmosphere. We'll be coming back! read more

Great breakfast place. The prices are fair, good coffee good food. Lunch specials every day, everything homemade ,great soups. There fresh turkey and roast beef are the best. Will be back for sure. read more

The Ridge serves fresh food, large portions and the wait staff keeps your coffee cup full. I have been there many times and have never been disappointed in the food or service. When family from out-of-state visit, they always want to go to the Ridge for breakfast. Don't forget, they only take cash. read more

Filthy Filthy Filthy! Food is ok, but can't get past the FILTH EVERYWHERE! Highchairs are so disgusting, who knows what the kitchen looks like.....Sorry not going back. read more
