We just had an incredible breakfast. After traveling internationally all day yesterday, we knew we needed to grab a hearty bite prior to our final leg home today. We are so glad we came here. I had their 2 eggs (over well) with home fries (with onions and green peppers) and the pork sausage patty. It came with toast (white with jelly). My breakfast was supreme. The eggs were perfection! My lovely had pancakes. She got 3 good sized pancakes. She added crispy bacon (3 slices). She came hungry but couldn't get around all 3 cakes. I helped. The cakes were grand even without syrup. I've been making cakes for decades and never nail what she ordered. The bacon was excellent. She had hot tea and I had coffee. Their coffee was first class; I had a refill. Our waitress was awesome. Super friendly and helpful. I believe the owners were on premises. They engaged with customers and the staff (always a good sign). If I'm right, one even manned the grill. We Ubered here from the TWA Hotel, which isn't even 15 minutes away. Be sure to hit the right pickup location in your app. We are so glad we came here. We arrived hungry and left full. Highly recommend. read more

Springfield Diner - 2 Eggs Breakfast - Diners Near Me - Jamaica, New York

I lived in the neighborhood 30+ years past this diner many times but today I decided to stop and get a bite to eat. It's very nostalgic staff are very friendly place was clean, which is must, I ordered breakfast which you can order up until 4 pm two eggs over medium with toast, grits and a salmon cake Now I don't need to remind you not everyone can cook grits, LOL When the food arrived hot. It was Delicious. I was intrigued by those entering the establishment who were greeted on a first name basis you could tell they had been been patronizing the place for years and even though it was my first time visiting this establishment, I was greeted with the same warmth and care. I never felt rushed if there is a negative that would be they don't take plastic but other than that if you're looking for a warm pleasant place to eat breakfast because that's all I had, I recommend the place. I'm definitely going back trying either the lunch or dinner menu. read more

The service was great and the food comforting. It's a nostalgic old school greasy spoon, with awesome homemade flavor. A little taste of heaven when my mom & pops made sit down Sunday breakfast for the whole family. Coming back again with some more of my friends. read more

Horrible service. I called because bacon was missing from my order she gave me attitude and saying everything was checked off and im trying to explain that it was missing and nothing was actually checked off the list. read more

Yelpers did not disappoint! Had to spend the night by JKF after a flight cancellation back home to Cali and needed to find a breakfast joint for the fam. This was perfect! Service was great and the food was on point. I had the BEC and it was on of the best! Forget the chains...hit this place up! read more

Springfield Diner - Menu...don't let the handmade signs fool you! - Diners Near Me - Jamaica, New York

The Best Grits in the World! Slow cooked creamy buttery grits. I used to order them for breakfast when I worked in the area and now that I've moved out of state, I make sure to stop by and order the grits whenever I come back to NY. read more

Do not charge $3.75 for a tiny plain bagel and $4.75 for a tiny everything bagel (with butter and jelly), perhaps using the old inflation excuse, and have a dirty interior and exterior. Plus coffee refills are a dollar while at other big, busy diners I usually receive unending refills. The waitress was good, but she lost a dollar in tip due to the cost. The bathroom is dirty. read more

The food has always been good here. Definitely a spot to stop by to get a good when you're in a rush. The staff is amazing and always pleasant. Love this place. read more

I have been coming here for over 30 years. It's like getting Sunday morning breakfast whenever you want. They are a cash only restaurant but they have an ATM. They have the best grits I have ever had I get them with whatever I order whether it be the French toast, pancakes or hash browns. I have never felt slighted on the service there no matter how busy it is. They are always smiling and helping to satisfy your taste, you just tell them what you're in the mood for and they will deliver ! This is a staple in the neighborhood, I can't count how many times I have sat at the counter and ate breakfast while meeting new neighbors who are just having a meal also. It's amazing how good food can be bring people together. Old town feel in the city that never sleeps. read more

The food is tasty and it has a small-town vibe. It's a little quirky with a man walking around and hawking merchandise. The seats are "repaired" with duct tape. It would be nice if they invested their profits into better furniture. The staff is friendly and welcoming, though. read more

The food is Amazing!! The grits are always made to perfection. I always order a veggie omelette and grits from Uber eats and is always good every time. I just had to leave a review . Would post a picture but I couldn't wait lol . Y'all just have to try for yourselves;) read more

My Bacon, egg & cheese on rye was tiny, dry and flavorless. The delivery guy asked my what I was planning to do with that sandwich. I asked him if he wanted it. He just hopped on his bike and sped away, quick, fast and in a hurry. read more

Friendly service from the wait staff to the cook. Small on the outside, but has a unique atmosphere inside.

Food and service great. The service quick even though always busy. The place Mom and Pop but warm environment

First time here and I loved it!!!!!! Who doesn't love a great home diner with great ppl!!!

Food was great. Freshly made. Good service. This is one of those holes in the wall you hear about, not too pretty, but if you want good food, overlook the grimey look of the diner. read more

The food was amazing I got French toast , egg whites turkey sausage.. if I wasn't trying to unbig my back I would go everyday lol

Fast Service, Food was Hot and tasted great. The Ambiance was inviting and peaceful.

Service: Excellent Food: okay , but pricey, extremely pricey and no menu Place: old and it feels dirty. We'll only go back to say hello to the lovely ladies that work there. read more

Food was tasty, quick drop in place for a Saturday breakfast run. Service was quick and price was reasonable.

In all honesty, the exterior and and interior is not appealing to the eye at all. I walked in and as soon as I sat down on the booth it leaned forward. They have no digital or physical menus, I had to stand up and walk back to the front of the diner and read the menu off the wall. read more

The food Is great for the most part I won't even lie I'm surprised how great the food was. As I said before the only thing that turned me off was the exterior and minor interior presentation. Real turn off. Butttt once you get the meal OMG!!! Mind blown read more

See all

Came here one morning and after the breakfast I had got severe food poisoning and needed to hospitals bc of a bacteria infection in my stomach. They have to be giving old food or not keep the food in clean areas I would never recommend coming here almost died read more

I've lived in the neighborhood for almost all of my life and have passed this diner daily. Always hearing lots of good things but never had the chance to go in, I decided after my haircut appointment to stop in on a Saturday and try the food. I ordered pancakes, pork sausage and eggs. The food did not disappoint. The people/staff were inviting and the atmosphere was fairly lively. For a small place it was decently packed. For the food I received, the price was more than reasonable. I will definitely be going again and trying more things on their menu. read more

Amazing service, speed and food. 10/10 recommend! Cash only though but there's an ATM and there's parking around bank read more

I am impressed, Springfield Diner was actually wonderful. Everything is always so fresh, and the price is right! Every single thing that we have purchased was incredibly fresh and tasty. The staff is outstanding and really welcoming. To sum it up, I really liked Springfield Diner. read more

LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE THEM!!!! I will admit I am particularly biased to this diner, this was my local greasy spoon. I grew up in a house right around the corner from them before kids. I mean coming here for a breakfast sandwich since HS. I mean they know my whole families order and always ask for my kids. The sweetest owners ever!!! This is the breakfast spot on merrick blvd a staple in the area. This part of merrick is not as bustling as it is going towards laurelton but this diner is. Their speciality is breakfast and they make it just the way you like it. Fish and grits, eggs, homefries, toast, sausage, bacon, etc all taste like a nice home cooked meal. The diner isn't huge, about 6 tables seating 4/5 and counter space but if you want to sit my Queens people are very considerate, usually people eat and get on with their day. They also serve lunch but breakfast is where it's at. read more

This place is not much to look at but the food taste like you stepped into grandmas kitchen! The bacon was perfect and I just wanted to eat more of it. The pancakes were really good and the homefries were my favorite! read more

Old school diner. Friendly staff. Best grits I've ever had. Lots of regulars, I can see why.

Coffee taste like water smh prices are too high for ordinary food. One of my kids enjoyed their bacon and egg on toast but they both rather the Spanish deli down the block. read more

Food is good. My kids really enjoyed the blueberry pancakes. They also have non-pork meat options for breakfast meats. That's a plus for our family of 5 who don't eat pork. The service was friendly too. The place is small. It looks and feels like you would expect a small neighborhood diner in Queens to look. The reason why I can't give it more stars is the price mirrored an bigger diner you'd find in the city. Everything was a la carte. Portions were good sizes, if they need to add "meals" to the menu. Wish I could give this place a higher score, but this pricing options need to change. read more

I love it here! The food is good, and the service is good too. Now the establishment isn't all that, It looks like a hole in the wall to be honest but the food is good. I call it our hood diner lol! #GreatBreakfast #HoodDiner read more
