Looking for a diner experience with top notch food and a lot of it for a fair price? You just described Rockin' Robyn's to a T! We would go back in a heartbeat, just need to sleep off the food coma for a while. It's bright and airy in spite of the smallish space and the amount of booths and tables, oh and you can sit at the counter. The walls and ceiling are covered in memorabilia, concert banners and what not. The place was absolutely hopping at 12:45 PM, but we were sat in a booth right away. Waters dropped moments later, asked if we needed coffee, tea or whatever else you wanted to drink. Our server was fantastic, explaining and educating us as we were first timers. The food came out piping hot very quickly and our tea ordered after the food was dropped came in a large teapot and hot just like at home. The clubhouse, which I did not have, has house made ham and turkey according to our server. My corn beef had slices of corn beef that did not taste house made, but the sheer volume of meat I couldn't finish, the eggs were cooked perfectly. K's Mexicasa omelette was excellent with the Mexican meat the star. I know why the place is consistently full, it's that good. Definite redo when back in West Edmonton read more

We came here on a holiday Monday after an hour and a half hike in cool fall weather. We wanted something comforting and filling and our breakfasts hit the spot. The corned beef has had mashed potatoes which is different from what I'm used to but it was tasty nonetheless. My husband substituted the pancakes in his meal for pan fried potatoes. The place was super busy even though it was around 2pm and was still packed when we left. They seated us quickly as we were willing to sit at a table but we could've waited for a booth. The servers were friendly and fast which was perfect for us as I needed to get to an appointment. It's a relatively small restaurant with many patrons. It's definitely got that old diner vibe which is always fun once in a while. If you're looking for a solid, traditional diner experience, you can't for wrong with Rockin' Robyn's. read more

This is an update to my previous review. I've been here twice this summer and the service was excellent both times. We were here at around 11:00 am on Wednesday and we still had to wait for 10 to 15 minutes for a table. This is despite the fact that there is presently road construction out front that completely blocks access from Mayfield Rd. That's how popular it is. The breakfasts are reasonably priced with most items under $20 and many options under $15. My wife ordered the breakfast bagel and said it was really good, although messy. The coffee is better than average for a cafe. All and all I would highly recommend Rickin Robyn's for groups of four or less. read more

Great food, quick service, and a clean, comfortable atmosphere. Everything tasted fresh and well-seasoned. Definitely a solid spot--I'd come back again. read more

Amazing diner in Edmonton. Rockin' Robyn's diner has lots of seating but it is just so busy, for good reason ! The menu has so many different options. The staff are extremely friendly and they try their best to accomodate you if you want to add or remove anything from your plate. I had the chance to try the Coffee Crisp French Toast and it was nothing short of amazing. Also, the blueberry pancakes were delicious. Yes ! It's worth the wait to get in ! Also, make sure you use the free jukebox with classics like Stevie Wonder and Elvis which will make your breakfast more enjoyable. I will definitely be returning next time I'm in Edmonton. read more

This was a fun 50's style Dinner. The service was friendly and had a small town feel. They had a large menu with all day breakfast and gluten free options for people with dietary restrictions. I ordered the lunch special which was not on the menu. I had a grilled cheese style burger stacked high and served with a steak knife and a side. I ordered the house salad with my burger and altogether is was very filling. The prices on the menu were also very reasonable which was great since everyone seems to be increasing their prices. They also had a great selection of pie to try! I was too full from lunch but I would love to come back for a classic milkshake or a slice of pie and icecream! The Decor was a feast for the eyes everything was 50s themed. They even had a jukebox and classic red dinner booths. I will definitely be recommending this business to my friends. read more

Visited this place today and arrived at 11:40 and was told a 30 minute wait. Eventually seated @ 12:10 as the restaurant was packed and numerous people waiting. Be prepared to wait outside or in your vehicle as no waiting room inside. The menu for Breakfast was extensive but as it was after noon we opted for lunch. Typical Diner style food. Burgers, Sandwiches, Soup, Salad, and numerous Pies as well. The servings are humongous so be hungry or prepare to doggie bag it. The food was very tasty and very affordable too. Service was very attentive and pleasant. Atmosphere was 50's style Diner with lots of interesting memorabilia to keep your eyes busy while waiting for your food. I will return again in the future and had been meaning to try the place for a while and was glad I did! read more

Food is always great, portions sizes are big for not a crazy cost. Atmosphere is always buzzing. Would definitely recommend making a trip to try out! read more

Came here for an impromptu lunch with a gal-pal on a lazy weekday afternoon. We were warmly welcomed and invited to sit anywhere we like. A cozy booth near the back seemed like just the right place. The menu had LOTS to choose from which made it tough, but I channeled my inner child and went with a grilled cheese sandwich (with deliciously fried onion rings). Easy peasy and tough to mess up. Service was friendly and personal. Food was hot and fresh. And the restaurant was clean and decorated! We'll be back! read more

Amazing service, there was a 30min wait, but we did get a buzzer and could wait in the car. The bacon burger was well seasoned and more than enough to fill someone. The pan fries were ok, could have used a bit more something. But all in all especially for the price the food was good. Super busy so alot of conversations ect, but not too loud. read more

The Rockin Robin Burger is FIRE. We had tried this Burger at the diner, and it was off of the hook. Thick juicy meat in the burger with French fries and all. Not very expensive or cheap, but good. Our first time here, and the people are nice. This could be our go to spot. read more

The busy atmosphere outside Rockin Robyn continued indoors but the wait for a table was brief and the coffee plentiful From start to finish the service was top notch Questions about the menu were answered and recommendations offered too After a quick glance of the menu I opted for the breakfast Yorkshires Two massive Yorkshires arrived heaped with mushrooms topped off with a poached egg (perfectly cooked) My guest opted for an omelette that came with piles of pan fried potatoes Portions are generous read more

I love an old style diner. I go to Rockin Robyn's a few times a year. I love their homemade chaffles for my eggs benny. It elevates my favorite dish without all the carbs. And always love the pies! read more

These folks have produced some of the most consistent, enjoyable, and delicious experiences my family has had the last few years. When eating there for breakfast or brunch, their breakfast dishes are always creative and well executed. More importantly for me, the staff are always patient and kind with my rambunctious children. This year for Christmas, we tried something new with their Christmas meal package. What we got was by FAR the tastiest turkey meals we could have imagined at a price we could NOT have done if we cooked it ourselves. Scratch made everything, right down to the cranberry sauce, which I normally don't even like. Everything was thoughtfully and tenderly prepared by people who clearly care about your experience. It validated the sense I always get from the dining in experience that this is a group of people who passionately care about their craft. Rockin' Robyn's truly rocks. By the way, that is my glass of Basil Hayden's bourbon on the table. It has participated in the making of this review. read more

Very busy, but wasn't too loud as we had a cozy seat at back. The food was good, not too expensive and service was pretty good.

Food was delicious and fresh and I love the atmosphere it takes you back in time It's 50s decoration complete w stools, checkered floor, juke box read more

Always a great time and amazing menu! We have been going for a few years now and its great!

Wow, I love everything about this place- the decor, the seating, the delicious, fresh food choices, the specials, the amazing pies and of course, the wonderful staff. The pies are to die for and the portions are generous. We had the blueberry sour cream and the banana cream. I wish i found this place much sooner. Now that i have, i will visit more often. read more

Rockin' Robyn's Diner - Call me old fashioned but this is how I check if a breakfast place is worth coming back to. Their Eggs Benny must be awesome - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Edmonton, Alberta

I love this place! The 50's theme and detail throughout the diner is great and I like how the menu coincides with the same theme. Service is wonderful - always helpful and personable. Sometimes you do have to wait as it is quite popular but it is worth it. They serve an all day breakfast menu and if that isn't your thing, they have a lunch menu too. The portions are very generous. The first time I came here I ordered the 2 egg breakfast with ham and hash browns which was delicious. The hash browns were crisp but not hard, the poached eggs were done how I liked - medium and the ham was fried perfectly. My boyfriend ordered the Philli Cheesesteak Sandwich and it was huge! The sandwich comprised of two grilled cheese sandwiches encasing steak and other fixings. It came with choice of fries, soup or salad and he ordered the beef barley soup and loved it too. In addition to that we had a malt shake which was yummy! And we took 2 pieces of pie for the road - Apple rhubarb and Blueberry Sour Cream - Both so good! I highly recommend getting a piece or two of their delicious homemade pies. I am looking forward to my next visit! I can taste the pie already...(drool) read more

As I watched food go by I was impressed. I ordered a corned beef relish Gouda eggs Benedict. I asked for soft poached eggs. The eggs came out hard. I sent it back. They did not remake the plate they just replaced soft poached eggs. But they were not in place. Slid off or missed the mark. They were on the potatoes. The hollandaise sauce was not good. To much flour? I do not know, just not very good at all. As I reflect on this experience I am more and more disappointed. read more

We were glad to be able to go into restaurants again and picked this place as the first based on reviews of the breakfast. The decore is of an old cool dinner that has become popular these days. Tony had one of those big breakfasts that come on 2 plates with a bit of everything. All good, his only complaint was the sausage was not very spicy. I had the corned beef hash. It was also quite good. I think I would have preferred the similar dish that is served with chunky potatoes. The corned beef hash comes on mashed potatoes and while good. I think it was a bit too mushy. I do plan to go back. The best part of this place is they have an interesting menu with lots of original ideas. Like coffee crisp French toast. read more

We have been here numerous times for breakfast. This time we went for lunch. Fabulous little joint with fun decor. Not sure what Alice in Wonderland has to do with the place but we love the characters in the restaurant. Service last few times has been slow in refills and checking on us but it's not due to them being lazy, they are busy. We were not disappointed. I had the Rockin Robin Burger and hubbs had Cheesesteak Sandwich. We both had to take our food home as they were flippin HUGE! Look at my burger!! I had to take out the onion rings as there is no mouth that could do that burger! Lol read more

What a cool spot and a time warp to the 50s!! Super fun old diner decor...even old fashioned baby high chairs. There are tons of pics all over the walls of different musicians and famous people. It's fun to check out while waiting for your food. There's even a free jukebox at the back. The prices are super reasonable! We went for breakfast with our 1.5 year and there was a great basic kids menu with cheap prices. We ordered him kid sized pancakes with strawberries and whip cream...he was so stoked!! I got the two egg breakfast with bacon (4 pieces!!), pan potatoes and toast. My bacon was undercooked for my liking. I never think to ask for crispy bacon but I will try to remember next time. Big portion and only 9$! Hubby got eggs benny...he said his English muffin was overdone but still tasted good. We were just stoked on atmosphere and prices. It's not the highest quality of food. But still good. Friendly staff! A counter display full of delicious and decadent looking home made pies. I would love to go back for pie and tea or to try their lunch menu. A place worth checking out if you find yourself in the area. read more

Finally! I've meant to come here for ever. It looks just like the pictures, but is a bit smaller than I expected. Servers are friendly and super efficient. When the cooks ring that bell in the kitchen, they go runnin'! I had the meat-a-tarian scrambler and it was delicious. I would probably swap out the scrambled egg for poached next time, because I think the yolk would just add a little extra. My coworker had the crispy chicken sandwhich and almost licked the plate... it looked really great. The panfries (hashbrowns) are the star of the show. They were really amazing. We finished up with some milkshakes and I practically had to be rolled out of there. Everything was fantastic, and prices are reasonable. read more

My friend raves about this diner so I decided to check it out with another friend. Arrived on a Thursday at 11:30 and there was a 15 minute wait. Normally this a sign of a good restaurant. Not so. Service was slow. Both of our orders were over cooked, tasteless and pricey. I can't recommend. read more

Great atmosphere and great service. Ergonomically awkward while waiting at the door. Only one way in and one way out. With people pushing in to get a name on the list, and people pushing trying to get out it doesn't make it a pleasant wait, especially on the chilly days. Once inside the wait is worth it. The very definition of comfort food, and the pies are to die for. Great Flapper pie! read more

This small diner is one of the best places I have eaten in months! It sure beats the bigger chain restaurants who will charge you at least $5 more for the same food and likely smaller portions. We arrived around 3PM on a weekday and found there were about 5 tables occupied. We seated ourselves in a booth and were brought menus. There's the all day breakfast menu and then lunch. Almost all the prices are under $10 (except the steak sandwich) and they offer daily specials for $9. I decided to get the clubhouse sandwich and poutine (an extra $1.50 and you can choose between crinkle cut or handcut) for $10. The food arrived hot and wow, there were lots of fries and my sandwich was piled high. It was delicious and I was able to finish about half of my food. They also have a great selection of cream pies for $4/slice but they are huge pieces. I saw a few people order pie and if I was still hungry, I would have devoured one too! What I love about the diner besides the food is the décor with all the prints and photos from the 50s and 60s. They also play great music in their choice of the satellite radio station. The servers are very friendly and hard working and refilled my water when asked. There are 2 washrooms for ladies and one for men. The ladies' room was clean. Great restaurant and definitely recommend if you are in the westend of the city. The only negative is they close at 4PM and closed on Tuesdays. read more

I have been here numerous times and have never been disappointed. Service, decor, selection, portions and quality are all excellent. Every time. The raspberry lemonade French toast is the best French toast I've ever had in my life. read more

Food is good but seating is very jammed together. I am partially handicapped and must use a wheelchair but there is very little room to sit at a table in it. Halfway down the restaurant there are tables in the centre of the aisle there are tables set up which means I could not use the facilities! This establishment has the potential to be a great trendy restaurant with great food but I was told my wheelchair was blocking peoples path but backed off when I pointed out the absolute lack of space for me to get to the back end of the restaurant. I enjoyed the food but doubt I will be back because of these reasons. I'm not sure how they even got an occupancy permit! read more
