This is our go to breakfast place! They're quick, friendly, and have great food. The normal breakfast fare as well as some Greek choices too! We've never been here for lunch, but they have a lunch menu as well. Family friendly! read more

This is THE spot for delicious, quality home cooking. For quality, quantity and price, you would be hard pressed to surpass Steve's. Their meals are just darn good and consistently so. The staff is super friendly and as a regular feels more like extended family. This is a GREAT always satisfying spot. read more

Nice little place. Very attentive service. Very good diner style food. Served quickly. Extremely nice people there. Give them a try.

My husband and I eat lunch here about once a week. It's decent diner food at reasonable prices. Their home-made desserts are always tempting in the glass case! I always get the Greek pita with hand-cut fries. The chicken is moist - never dry! My husband usually gets a special and is rarely disappointed. The decor is typical diner style, and service is always good. read more

I was driving from Maine back home to Boston and found good reviews for Steve's Diner. Pulled in and as waking to the entrance I inquired to a staff member how the food was? She enthusiastically replied, "Very good, but you tell me what you think after you have given us a try." I ordered the fish chips featuring Haddock. It was the best fish and chips I have had in many years. And I have eaten many and know the difference between good, very good and exceptional when it comes to this offering. The fish fresh fresh, the breading crispy light and worth every calorie - but what out it over the top was I could tell this establishment changes their fry oil on a very regular basis. So, hats off. Great job. Glad I stopped in. Phil G. read more

Stopped in for breakfast. One of the nicest waitresses I have ever had. I had cheese and broccoli omelette. The omelette was good, cooked well and hot. I like a thin omelette with what ever you ask for with it rolled in the center. This one had the broccoli cooked throughout. It was still very good. The coffee is typical diner coffee. The home fries were ok but a little under done. It was a good, inexpensive breakfast and I would go back. read more

We were visiting from Houston, to attend a wedding. I used Yelp to find Steve's diner. It was a short drive from our hotel, the Exeter Inn to Steve's. We were looking for real New Hampshire atmosphere, not too touristy. When us Texans walked in, I felt like I was attending a Presidential caucus and "the music stopped". Then, immediately we felt at home. They scrambled to clear a booth for us, and from then on the service and food was perfect. I had the corned beef hash, eggs sunny side up, and hash browns cooked well done and crispy. I often order my eggs sunny side up, and hash browns crispy, and rarely is it executed as ordered. Steve's cooked it all perfect. The service from our friendly waitress continued, including always keeping my coffee full and hot. It was just a friendly, well executed breakfast. On our way out, Steve yelled thanks to us as we walked by the kitchen. (I only know it was Steve because somebody called him Steve when we walked by.) read more

Great breakfast hands down. Without listing the menu I found the homemade hash and loukaniko to be on point. Wicked good coffee. The wait staff even handled the screaming/stray children with calm poise. Well worth a 2nd visit.... read more

I liked it here but it was very busy. And very pricey. The service was pretty good considering the volume of people here. Parking was terrible. It was confusing when we walked in what the protocol for seating was and some family was hogging the entire hallway. I got an egg white omelet which I always appreciate and it was good. I would maybe or maybe not come here again if I were in the area. read more

Very good breakfast. Had a Greek Omelet, sausage, feta and tomatoes! They just had some problems with the credit card machine. read more

Great hash, excellent service, awesome omelettes. We had a really good breakfast and everything work out just fine. Ask for extra Garmonbozia it was amazing. read more

Steve's Diner - The best tomato salsa in town! - Diners Near Me - Exeter, New Hampshire

This place is a hit or miss, some days it's great and other days it's not. I was served boiled potatoes for home fries, no seasoning, not grilled. When I sent them back because the were cold, they were returned barely at room temperature obviously microwave. Again other days we have a great breakfast but not always. The wait staff are terrific the ladies really make you feel at home. Oh how I miss Steve. read more

Waking up to rain sent us out of our tents and looking for a leisurely breakfast in the greater Raymond, Epping, Exeter area. The gps sent us to Steve's Diner. Steve's is what you might expect from a small town diner,minus good service. We waited for more than 10 minutes before receiving menus and another 10 for coffee and water. The omelette and stuffed French toast we ordered took another 20+ minutes to arrive and then a few minutes after that we received silver wear and hot sauce. The food was fine. The eggs were fairly fluffy and the Athenian omelette had good flavor. The stuffed French toast was clearly the main attraction here, piled high with berries and whipped cream- big and delicious for rained on kids. If I ever go back to Steve's Diner, I hope to find a full wait staff that's ready for a rainy morning rush. read more

I will start with something positive -- we had wonderful wait service. As for the food, I can't be quite so positive. I ordered their special breakfast omelette which contained prosciutto and spinach. When it arrived, there was no spinach so I sent it back. When it was returned (fresh omelette) there was no sign of prosciutto, but a ham steak cut into chunks instead. The waitress agreed and apologized a second time, indicating there would be no charge. When the check arrived, full charge. Like the dishonest drug dealers in this world, Steve's Diner "cuts" their food products! Two bad visits here -- we will NOT return. read more

Service was good, nothing bad to say, just wasn't what I look fir in a breakfast place.

Nice omelette selection. I had one of the Greeks. Nothing fancy here. Nice for the price. Great smiley quick service. I'll be back.

Yes! Yes! Yes! They have hash browns, crispy hash browns, and everything else we had was good, too. Not fancy, just a good diner breakfast. Good service and good food. read more

Excellent service great fresh breakfast. Pancakes awesome. Everything was perfect. Been there several times for breakfast. Pricing average

Stopped on our way back from vacation. Amazing service and food. We ordered our food during a rush and not only was everything cooked to perfection but it came out within 15 - 20 mins after ordering. Everything is home made and you can instantly tell once you start eating. Can't say enough except the Irish Bene's are fantastic. read more

Wait staff was very pleasant. The food was mediocre at best. Girlfriend received soggy homefries and a cold pancake while I had the Eggs Benedict with a hollandaise that left me unable to finish the plate. Hot coffee read more

Great, home cooked food. It's like going to your aunt's house to eat. Massive pancakes and enormous tuna sandwiches. The dining room is a little loud and they're only open till 3pm but we love it! We are regulars. read more

Steve's was one of the first places we got breakfast when we moved to Stratham. Housed in what appears to be an old Pizza Hut, Steve's is serving up breakfast, lunch, and dinner to a full house. I've only had breakfast here but I've never been disappointed. Huge portions got very reasonable prices. The staff there is amazing as well. Regardless of how busy it is you are always greeted with a smile and fast service! read more

Was recommended by a cop, that being said he obviously didn't like people from out of town! It's a diner I order a chocolate milk and a bottle of nesquick comes out, then comes the blueberry muffin dry and no flavor used about 5 packets of butter. Main dish was a corn beef hash omelette which I think the hash was about a week old and dry so lots of ketchup on that too make it swallowable! As my dad would of said the best thing about this place was leaving it! read more

They are open! I just got pick up and it was a great experience! Best food ever! I had the steak and cheese omelette, rye toast, side hash browns. An Omelette to go you might question, this was a win and traveled amazing. Filled with basically a steak and cheese sub wrapped in the best cooked omelette ever. A true pro on the flat top. Toast was butter fun. Hash browns brought the meal together. Added a grilled corn muffin, just do it. I will keep going back for the to go or delivery! Great staff and really clean viewable kitchen. read more

Went to breakfast - busy place even early am. Ordered a corn beef hash omelet - I've never eaten anywhere where it did not include cheese - had I realized that I would have added some - hence it was eggs and hash - makes a dry omelet. Lots to choose from, nice staff.... read more

My girlfriend and i went there on a Sunday @ 9:30 A.M. it was busy but their were a few tables and booths open, they are open 7 days a week from 6:00 A.M. - 3:00 P.M. they also serve breakfast all day the waitress was nice the food was good we had good portions all for under $19.00 dollars we will come back here when we are in the area again. read more

I wouldn't say a full 4 stars, but definitely more than 3. Great service, but nothing special for food. Seemed like nothing was local, all standard fast-raunt fare. read more

What a great find, definitely a do again. Good food,great service and right off the highway.

This place is disgustingly dirty - like health code violation level dirty. Flies were buzzing around like a third world country. Bathroom was nauseating. Really depressing environment. It's a former Pizza Hut and was better then - trust me. That said, my oatmeal and one scrambled egg were pretty good. read more

Good local diner that serves breakfast & lunch dishes from 6a-3p. It gets very crowded during the weekends and the small parking lot outside gets packed as well. Inside, the place is relatively small and looks relatively old. Service is not that good as there's not enough wait staff. There was 2 waitresses when I went and the manager/owner (?) didn't really do anything but man the cashier and sometimes place the utensils to the tables. People were waiting to have their order taken! Had a waitress who seemed friendly but rushed as there wasn't enough servers. The place has an food menu with your typical all familiar American food breakfast items, salads and sandwiches. Prices were reasonable ~$6-12 depending on what one orders. Serving size also depended on what one ordered though breakfast plates filled up a dish which was good. A place that serves an endless cup of coffee. Doesn't help much when it's 'Seat yourself!' when tables needed to be cleaned up and people are waiting but there's not enough servers to clean and to serve the customers. Decent food but don't expect much for service which is very slow because it's understaffed. read more

Work at Manchester va, had to bring patient to Exeter hospital. Dropped off patient and headed for breakfast. Saw steves diner pulled in. Friendly place told to sit anywhere. Courtney, waitress came over to take my order. Ordered the biscuits and gravy. Talked with a group of older gentlemen and realized I had forgotten my wallet. Found Courtney and told her to cancel order because I forgot my wallet. Left the building to go get in my car, Courtney came out and said she payed for my breakfast. I was floored. Told her that's not necessary but she said she'd feel bad if I didn't come in. That right there is new hampshire hospitality. Will be back. read more

Love love love breakfast at Steve's! The staff are all amazing and thoughtful. Food is good and the price is reasonable. Highly recommend the place read more

Sorry to say, I must amend my previous review. Steve has sold the place, and the new owners are really not doing a very good job. Prices have all gone up on the new menu, and food quality has suffered. I feel bad about this, as this used to be my go-to breakfast place. read more

The best thing about this place was the host.. Very friendly and always checkin refills on coffee.. The grilled bagel was just a soggy buttery mess.. The omelette was nothing to brag about, good portion. The worst part is just how loud this place is... Wasn't packed or anything but sounds like everyone is yelling in this place.. read more

Went to Steves Diner for breakfast this morning. They serve a wide variety of foods. The portions were extremely generous and the prices are right in line with what you would expect to pay for a nice breakfast. Our waitress was great and extremely attentive. I recommend Steves Diner for a nice breakfast! read more

Wasn't impressed at all, went based on reviews. Not sure how lunch/dinner are, but breakfast was just 'ok', prices were a bit high and portions were low. I had steak tips + eggs and the steak tasted a bit off. Asked for medium, got well done. Brought my inlaws there with me, opinions were same all around. Just an average place, nothing special. Would probably not go back. read more

First time eating in Exeter and had a great breakfast. This diner is legitimate. Small town feel with great service and ambiance. Had the two egg special with grilled English Muffins bacon and coffee. Simple yet done right. read more

This place is a great place to go catch a homecooked meal. I happen to enjoy the Kraut dogs, and the Gyros are great menu item as well. The wait staff is nice and the meals are delivered promptly. I have yet to have a bad meal here. From what I hear the meatloaf is pretty good as well. All the meals are priced well usually between $7 - $11. I also suggest the hand cut french fries. Fresh and delicious. read more

The first thing you notice is how friendly the waitresses are. It was my first time there but I was treated as a regular. I had the stuffed french toast with bananas on top- SO GOOD. There is big dollups of whipped cream and a strawberry and cream cheese stuffing, very sweet. My uncle had the western omelette and there was not enough cheese for him but whatever. The home fries are good too, I got a side order and was given a very generous portion. Right off the highway and easy to find! read more

We eat here quite often. The food is good and the staff is friendly. Great place to grab a quick meal!
