I love this place. Every time I'm back home I make sure to come have lunch here. I've been getting the chicken melt for years now and I'm amazed every time. If you're around the area I would suggest you stop by and have a good lunch or breakfast. read more

The Surfside Diner reminded me of the old luncheonettes with the counter seating and booths. I ordered a beef burger with carmelized onions. The burger was delicious, the best I have had in a long time. Waitress was great and service was quick. read more

Really bad experience in palm beach surf side diner restaurant today. Apparently the menu haven't change like forever!! Me and my mom had a brunch this afternoon and will I went to the restroom they send my mom out because other people wait for so long. I mean why us? We spend at most 40mins for this brunch. Is that too long for you guys? Or because we are the only Asian people in the restaurant? This thing is not the first time ever happened in this restaurant and we even paid 18% tips for this. There server are the worst ever I've ever encountered! I've tried so many restaurants in palm beach area and I can swear that this is the worst one!!! This is so not acceptable! bad service bad food! This restaurant is being racist and it's unacceptable!! read more

Do I expect more from a diner on "The Island" than I do for a cheaper diner elsewhere? Yes, but this breakfast place sure didn't deliver it. Worst egg sandwich (of which I've had many in my life) ever. The bagel was stale and so bad that I left it on the plate, and for me to leave bread of any kind on my plate, it has to suck. One egg is not enough for a bagel sandwich as the yolk (best part) was gone in 2 bites, leaving ham, slice of blah cheese, and that inedible bagel. The home fries were fine, all 7 of them. I can think of 2 less expensive diners with way better egg sandwiches - This Is It Cafe in Northwood and Southern Kitchen in Lake Park. My friend had oatmeal and seemed content with it, but I must assume oatmeal is fairly easy to make without any glaring errors. Just disappointing because it's in Palm Beach, so I made sure to put on a blouse with no stains and preppy shoes, only to realize a t-shirt and cheap flip flops could have wielded a far better sandwich at Southern Kitchen. Or heck- an Egg McMuffin from McD's drive-through would have run circles around what I had! read more

The organic eggs and gluten free options are fantastic! We need more places that value health like this. Tommy was very kind and extremely helpful. There were a few hiccups with the meals, luckily Tommy was caring and made sure we got what we ordered. It's service like Tommy's that brings us back. read more

I work on the island but I have always struggled to find reasonably priced food that I can quickly pick up. This was my answer! I can't believe I haven't found this place earlier. Great addition to the island. Food is delicious. I had the BLT. read more

Surfside diner was a pleasant surprise. The diner is bright and clean with an industrial decor. Service was timely and polite. The omelets and eggs Benedict were very good and were reasonably priced. . It's not quite season yet and the wait was 10 minutes. We will return! We did return. Much to our delight they had Fresh Maui on gluten free bun. A delicious lunch at a reasonable price in Palm Beach! It is season at lunch time on a Wednesday with only less than 10 minute wait. read more

Great little place in Palm Beach for Breakfast. It has the quaint diner feel with a touch of class you would expect in PB. The food is delicious and the service is fast and friendly. The place is small and it gets pretty busy but the turn around time is fast. Will go back for sure. read more

Don't even waste ur time using ur card because I used my card and the cashier went back and add a $5 tip to my bill without my knowledge after I already tipped u $5 cash I'm definitely not recommending anyone to go there. read more

Had one of the best omlets in a long time. Had the pepper, onion, and pork sausage omlet. I was very good. The toast was very good. The bread is excellent. The omlet was huge. They do charge a fee to share a plate . It was so good, I didn't want to share anyway. read more

Very very average diner. Definitely overpriced, but that's given because of the area. I ordered a grilled chicken wrap, and I think I've had better versions at my college cafeteria. Everything in it seemed subpar, especially the tomatoes (felt like they bought them in a bag at a Target). The unsweetened tea was delicious, and our sever was attentive, but in the end, it was not worth the $40 bill between myself and my girlfriend. read more

We always go to Surfside Diner on when we are taking a break from the beach in Palm Beach. It is an easy walk from the beach. Staff is helpful and accommodating. Turkey burgers ($11.95) are good. Affordable in this expensive town. Great people watching especially at lunchtime on weekdays! read more

BEST spot for breakfast on Palm Beach Island! As everyone knows, finding reasonably priced food in Palm Beach is few and far between. Surfside Diner provides great food at great prices. I ordered the breakfast sandwich with bacon egg and cheddar cheese. It came with a choice of side- homefries or an arugula salad. I said to my server "I have to choose?!?" He said- No, don't worry about it... And proceeded to give me BOTH at no extra charge. I was such a happy camper! My meal was fantastic. Everything was delicious and the arugula salad was a nice, healthy addition to my meal. The diner is clean and modern. My server- Tommy was attentive, and helpful. He checked on me several times to make sure I had everything I needed and to make sure my water glass was always full. I will DEFINITELY be coming back here for breakfast again in the very near future. If you are staying in Palm Beach and need a break from 5-star restaurants, come eat at Surfside!! read more

We found this diner thanks to a tip from our hotel shuttle driver. After we left the beach we were starved and looking for a local place with a great meal. I'm just mad we found this gem on our last day of vacation. We came for lunch and we were not disappointed. The food was great and if we had room we would have tried those awesome looking cakes on the counter. If you're in the area don't wait go directly there and get a meal. They only serve breakfast and lunch and they are really close to the beach; so go for breakfast hit the beach and then go back for lunch. read more

Surfside Diner - Chicken salad samich....mmmmm - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Palm Beach, Florida

After adjusting to the fact that nothing opens early in Palm Beach wet set our sights on Surfside Diner for breakfast. We arrived just prior to their opening at 8am and easily found street parking nearby. This is Palm Beach -- just blocks away from Worth Avenue so we were prepared for the pricing (note: this isn't Waffle House; so breakfast for two will cost more than $12). That said this is a very clean diner with counter service in the center and booths along with sides and a healthy menu vs a greasy spoon. We were very happy with our breakfast. The ingredients were fresh and perfectly prepared. Our servers was friendly and prompt. There are plenty of menu options. We focused in on the the two and three egg options. Hubby had a three-egg omlete with onions and I had two eggs scrambled. Both options come with toast and home fries of arugula salad. The multi-grain toast looked homemade/bakery made and was thickly sliced. Coffee was diner-worthy. Nothing to write home about. Great start to the day in the Florida sunshine. read more

There's something affordable in downtown Palm Beach! Fresh ingredients, well prepared. Reasonable prices. Great service. Zero pretense. Hard to believe it's Palm Beach. It's just a shame that they don't open for dinner. I've only been the once, but from what we ate and what we saw, there's not much to complain about. Portions are large and food is excellent! read more

mmmm just ok. Which is such a pity because there are so few casual places to eat around here. The wait was long even though there were very few people in there. I had a good eggs benedict, but my husband had a burger which was SO RAW!! He would never complain so he ate it quietly, only to have stomach pains after. I am sure it will always do well because of locations BUT we will not be there. read more

Food was good. Busy inside. Wish there was more space at the bar. Kind of cramped especially when others don't know what personal space is. I got the chef salad, and my boyfriend got the fish sandwich. I also got a coconut macaroon. Delicious. Would return! read more

I had this place bookmarked for a while and completely forgot about it. I suggested to a friend that we try it out, since we were already at the beach. The diner is clean, great decor, plenty of sitting area, including numerous stools around the bar counter. We sat immediately without a wait. A few minutes later our server brought out waters, and gave us a few more minutes to decide what we'd like to order. Shortly after, an employee behind the counter dropped a small coffee/espresso cup, and the handle part of the cup flew right by my face. I was pretty shocked for a second, but I was fine so I didn't see a reason to freak out. Those behind the counter were more concerned with the clean up of the glass, instead of where it projected. Our server came over a couple minutes later to take our order, and I handed him the piece of glass to dispose of which wasn't a big deal. I ended up ordered their club, which looked great when it came out! It wasn't anything special. After the first few bites, I bit into something hard, and foreign... OUCH. I spit it out, and it was the sharp end of a wooden toothpick that had somehow broken off into my sandwich. Absolutely not happy. My teeth on the left side of my mouth felt pretty horrible for a couple minutes, but I was happy I didn't swallow it. I informed the server and he offered to have the sandwich remade, after I agreed he took the entire plate with almost all my chips on it. He took note of it and said he would bring a new bag with my freshly made sandwich. A few minutes go by, and my server brings my lunch out, no chips. Not a huge deal, so I mention it to him and suddenly it feels like I'm asking too much. I asked for a to-go box and the check, paid my bill, and left. I don't like complaining to managers about my meal, so I write Yelp reviews instead. I will definitely not be a return customer. Food is over-priced for average, and subpar customer service. read more

Went for breakfast on a Sunday. Crowded, but not a long wait. Service was great. Food was great. Nice and clean. I will be returning.

Great, elevated diner food at reasonable prices. We're there every weekend and the patrons are a mixed group....from regulars and celebrities to tourists. The food and service always top notch read more

Great high-end diner for breakfast, with reasonable prices. We went here for Sunday breakfast and it was fantastic. The diner is very clean and modern looking inside. The waitstaff was perfect: efficient and friendly. I had the Florentine Benedict and my better half had eggs. Both were delivered very quickly, with great presentation, quality, and simply delicious. The crowds in this place were down-to-earth too. Feel free to come in your Sunday casuals and relax. Great place! read more

This is what Dan Ponton does during the day and he does it as well as he does Club Colette. It's the other side of Green's which I like very much also but in a bizarre kind of way.

I grew up in the PB area. I believe this location, many moons ago, was called Hamburger Heaven. No longer- it is called Surfside Diner. I was invited by a friend and was very disappointed. The hostess offered me coffee (3x's) but never brought it. I asked for a water as well, which I never received. The waitress finally brought me the coffee and it was luke warm. I ordered the casserole, it was flavorless and luke warm as well. The english muffin was burnt(go figure) but most importantly, the waitress was awful- she took our order and then never saw her again! Oh she was there but never came to our table of 6. As far as pricing- the food is double the price it should be! My little casserole in a dish was $13.95. It was bland (kept adding salt hoping that would help) but it didnt. I do not recommend this diner! Its loud, its over crowded (packed in like sardines), its staff are unfriendly, and parking is only 1 hour. In the middle of my meal I had to go move my car. Definitely skip this diner and go to Toojay's or ER Bradleys. These two restaurants have better food, more bang for the buck, better staff, and better parking. Btw: this diner isnt even surfside! read more

Kinda disappointing. I wanted to like it more. In the end this is a basic diner the only thing that makes it different than a typical diner is the fact that it's prices are far higher. Not bad...just not great! read more

What a cute place! Came here around noon on a Saturday for brunch/lunch and sat at the bar. It wasn't too crowded when we arrived, but by the time we left it was almost packed. The food was good! I got the lunch special omelette, which had spinach, feta, and grilled chicken and came with an arugula salad and toast. It was good and the portion was large! Couldn't resist the cookies that were staring us in the face so we shared a chocolate chip one. It was large and delicious! The restaurant is clean and nicely decorated, and the service was good. Worth checking out if you're in the area and want a casual but nice place for breakfast, brunch, or lunch. read more

I really wanted to give this place 1 star, but because of the quality of "diner" food, I went with 2. You go to a diner, you get diner food. Service was not good. They are clearly understaffed. It was a busy Sunday morning, and I counted only 4 servers, and they were all movin do s l o w l y. The poor blonde hostess was bussing multiple tables at once, by herself. I get that hostesses are supposed to help, but they can't be doing multiple jobs at once when people are lined up out the door. The owner, who I recognized because of his picture in a PB Post article on the wall, looked on, sitting idly by at the bar. Our only interaction was when he offered to poor coffee. Food was average. Service was not good. We saw our server once when she took our drink, and food order. Had to ask hostess for check. Service, hospitality, and pace of this restaurant needs improvement. Surprised this exists on Palm Beach I sland, considering how demanding the clientele can be. read more
