I needed somewhere to get brunch between two gigs I had, and I found this joint after doing a Google search. I was able to walk in and get a booth. The servers were very attentive, and they kept pouring coffee during my visit. I got a steak/eggs combo along with pancakes and toast. The steak was very under seasoned, but did the job. Pancakes were a little too fluffy for me, but that's a personal preference. Prices are very reasonable. I'd say if you're looking for a place to get a meal at a decent price, this place works. read more

So, OK, it may not have the most updated decor. But the breakfast menu is far more extensive than most, food is good, service is superb, portions are plentiful, prices are great. Bacon is the best around. read more

I visit Lorain a lot. Born and raised there. I have my old standby favorite restaurants but am always looking for new places to try. This place was pretty busy on a Sunday Morning, as expected. I stopped in at just the right time and was able to get a table with no wait. The place is stuck in time, but, I like that. Like a diner plucked out of the 80's as far as decor. Service was quick, efficient and friendly. Food was good. I just got a simple breakfast but my eggs were done over medium as requested. Bacon was crispy and the hash browns fresh off the griddle. Prices are great too. I'll definitely be back next time I'm in town. read more

The Beachcliff Diner - a plate of breakfast food - Diners Near Me - Lorain, Ohio

Looking at how the parking and building looked I wasn't expecting too much. Over all it was fairly decent. It has a Roseies, Chris, Sugar creek vibe. Walk in seated promptly, nice wait staff. Orange juice good. Coffee was my friends go to. They drank 2 cups so can't be bad. I had the hillbilly breakfast. It was huge (see picture) and was about 7 dollars. Not bad at all. Delicious. My only complaint was the bacon. I like cooked but soft and the bacon came out extra crispy. No big... but no good either. I plan on trying again with my mom when she comes to town. read more

The Beachcliff Diner - Corn beef and Swiss omelette, toast and hash browns. - Diners Near Me - Lorain, Ohio

Was in town for a trip and wanted to try a new place. I ordered the steak and eggs with homefrys. homefrys where a bit over cooked as well as lacking flavor. The steak I had I asked for med rare and was cooked prefect the cut of meat however lacked quality it was thick but a bit tough and stringy. Eggs I ordered over easy came out perfect as well. This is a nice layed back diner nothing flashy with a friendly staff that were quick to respond to anything I needed. I would go back again however with Chris's diner down the street this would be my second choice to that. read more

The Beachcliff Diner - a breakfast of eggs, sausage and toast - Diners Near Me - Lorain, Ohio

I give this place two stars. The waitress was very nice. the restaurant was cute inside. My only complaints are that she brought me the pancakes she got wrong and used her bare hands to grab my toast off of the wrong plate and put it on the right plate. i've never in my life had a good service worker grab my food with their bare hands. read more

Wow, where to begin... My experience here started off ok in the beginning: we've been usually consistent when ordering the same, simple breakfast - but now, with great regret we chose a new adventure that day; with our evolving tastes we decided on different items this go around. Afterall, how difficult should that be? Well the unassuming spot with the leaning sign and it's crooked pole out front, has turned into a carnival and we ain't takin' a seat on this Hell ride EVER AGAIN. This time, our visit deviated from the norm. Kielbasa was a $3.99 side order to replace another meat. What a joke. Was a terribly small piece of garbage. We also recieved blueberry pancakes that were a pile of waste containing raw batter inside, noticing once a fork pierced and punctured that sloppy, oozing goo. Doomed from the point of finally being seated, the two of us waited close to 40 minutes for the bounty of their dumpster diving. We honestly thought the cook had to have a case of diarrhea or was taking too many smoke breaks while workin' that griddle!! "Corned beef hash" was horrendous! Would never have fed that puke to a pack of hungry strays let alone served that on a plate to another human being. Not only did it resemble vomit, but it will make you want to throw up at it's mere sight. Frightening to say the least. Again, this cook had to have been under the spell of something supernatural because of how low the standard was. The inside of that microwave must look like an outhouse toilet hole, splatters n' all. The waitress was clueless as if she was anticipating prescription meds to kick in -- that or she had a nasty hangover on Mother's Day. Poor thing. The owner walks around and says hello to people like he's a middle eastern Frank Sinatra or some big deal at a greasy spoon working the room. God Bless 'em! If you enjoy stale bread for toast slathered with off-brand margarine, then you're in for a treat. I might suggest wearing latex gloves when handling any condiments there such as ketchup bottles or containers of syrup. Filthy. Sounds of sneezing and coughing will make you feel like you're at an E.R. or hospice visiting a loved one. I gave them the chance to right the wrongs of such a deplorable excuse for a meal, however they chose to keep the bill the same without removing what was owed for that messhall slop. Oh well, never again. I will no longer brag of their inexpensive deals prior to arriving by 11am. I write this to let you know to save your money and spend it on making your own food, or you can opt for a soup kitchen. The Beachcliff Diner has been reduced to trash. read more

Love to go for their Breckfast special,, made to perfection... im all the way back from Sheffield lake, come whenever I can.. its a bit of a ride but its worth it. No one makes their brekfasts so Good & very veryreasonable too. GO you will love it. Dorothy read more

Awesome food at a great price. I hope the owner makes it, there have been several over the years in this location but just can't make it last. Too bad, Lorain needs some stability. Go for the perch meal (it's Lorain, this is a necessity here), the filet sizes are better than average and a super great price. read more

Love this place I come for breakfast all the time and the food comes out fast. Definitely a bang for your buck and very cheap menu ! I recommend to anyone that loves a mom and pop restaurant read more

Great little affordable diner to bring the family to! Love the quality of the food here, as well as the prices. All I know is that when I often go to the 'national chains', I pay way more than I intended to, and it's 'hit or miss'. Not so this place. I've had breakfast, lunch, and dinner here, and it's all been excellent, and they always keep my coffee cup filled. Food is served quickly too, compared to most other places. All hail 'mom and pop' owned diners! My they dot our American landscape forever! read more

I love coming here on mondays for breakfast. Good food and a friendly environment. Really good food at a great price!

The worst burger I've ever had in my entire life. They made me pay 1.50 extra for French fries and they came out cold. My burger tasted like pork and smelled like wet dog food. My mom had some soup and it was very bland. If you're goig there breakfast is the best option th sausage isn't very good either so I wouldn't get that. The prices are good though. Only spent 36 on 3 kids and 2 adults. read more

My wife and I eat here as often as we can. The food is the best and the staff is always ahead of your requests. Nahal...you rock!

Ordered fish and chips, got deep fried fish jerky. Very thin filets deep fried too long. Really surprised a place would even serve such a thing. read more

They are incapable of making over medium eggs. You order over medium you get over easy. I see raw egg white and yoke and I lose my appetite. I have ordered them hundreds of times and maybe twice they were right. The owner saw my review on Facebook and basically argued with me about it. Said nobody ever complains. Well I've been in the restaurant many times when things were sent back. Said I should tell the waitress. I always tell the waitress and when they see I haven't eaten them they ask, they aren't cooked enough? and I show them the runny white. I usually get a discount because of it. The owner is hardly ever there so she doesn't know what goes on day in and day out. I don't want to take my eggs home to the dogs I want to eat them but I've tried so many times to get them right and have just given up; it's hit or miss. As a consequence I don't go there much anymore. I love breakfast and now just cook it at home where I can get an over medium egg every time. The food is really cheap and the quantity is good. They do use really cheap quality greasy sausage but the bacon is really good (can't eat it due to high blood pressure). Their brown gravy they put on hash browns is to die for. Their iced tea is a mix and tastes terrible not fresh brewed but their hot tea is great (fresh brewed). They have an all you can eat fish dinner I think that's like fried Pollock and it's wonderful. read more
