    Bacon/Egg/Sausage breakfast.
    Gary M.

    June 27, 2025: Breakfast with Ed. This was a pretty good breakfast. It was the 2x eggs, bacon, sausage & hash browns ($9.99). Everything was good (bacon had to be sent back to make it crispy) & very tasty as well. The hash browns were under cooked to my taste. Our server "Patti M" was very funny & quick whited. The service was fast. Super casual diner & ambiance but decent food & price. It's a do-over if I ever get here again.

    CLASSIC Classic dinner vibes The cup dinner has been a staple to this community for more than 30 years. After few owners. The spirit of what this place brings to their guest remains. Great food. Amazing hospitality. Generous people. When you think about a place to take your family and kids for a good and affordable meal without hustling or doubting. The cup dinner is the place to go. Their menu includes all day breakfast, lunch and dinner. They also have a meal of the day on special that varies. Our go to meal has to be the destiny's hot mess. Don't sleep on the SAUSAGE LINKS THE BURGER OMELET is a gem. Try it.

    If I'm ever in the area, I'd definitely visit The Cup Diner again! Tasty, hot and fresh home cooked food. No fuss, just simple and delicious! I ordered a Reuben sandwich and it was so good. The French fries weren't the best, so next time I'd order with potato chips. My husband's pancake breakfast did not disappoint either. I don't normally like breakfast sausage, but this one was juicy and quality. The pancakes tasted like box vanilla cake! Maybe others wouldn't like that, but we loved it! My only real complaints are: the table was not cleaned when we were sat, the not so good fries, & the coffee was horrible-- watered down and no flavor. Hopefully next time I can have a good cup of coffee at The CUP diner lol.

    The liver and onions with fried okra and mash potatoes with brown gravy.

    The service was great and the food was delicious. I had the liver and onions. With mash and fried okra.

    Tasty, traditional American dining in a cozy setting. The Cup was a local diner we tried on our latest adventure to Florida, and it didn't disappoint! Our party tried several of the omelets and a stack of pancakes; everything came out hot and fresh. My only critiques are that it's pretty cramped inside (our party of three were a little cramped in our booth) and all of the food needed a good shake of salt. The tables were clean and the staff was friendly! Pro tip: don't be turned off by a longer line, they turn those tables over fast!

    Food was delicious! This place was exactly what I was looking for. A small diner type atmosphere where all the locals knew each other. Glad I found it, and I will definitely return each time I'm in Florida. My waitress was very kind and I sat next to a daily regular who was also kind.

    Cozy and delicious. The exact vibes you would expect from a small town diner. The pancakes were probably some of the best I've ever had. Good prices for the amount of food you get and the waitress was really friendly and funny! I'd recommend to anyone stopping through the area and looking for a good diner spot.

    Extra bacon.

    I called for take-out. Over-easy eggs, home fries with 2 sausage links and bacon and EXTRA bacon. This also comes with toast. I also ordered a French toast. When I called, the host was very pleasant. When I arrived, I realized that the seniors loved this place. It's like a hang out spot for them. Lol. The hostess greeted me asked what I needed. Another pleasant gentleman came and asked me as well. I love a good customer service place. Manners have gone down the drain. I got home and dug in. The food did not disappoint. Even the toast was so good. Will be my new all day breakfast spot.

    It's not often that the hubby and I give a 5-star rating on food and service, but The Cup Diner in St.Cloud is very deserving of this honor. Talk about a hustling bustling place. We arrived and expected an extensive wait, but 15 minutes and we were seated and our happy waitress was immediately at our table taking our drink order. Our order consisted of The Big Frank breakfast special, which did not disappoint, with its skin on potatoes fried with onion and the fluffy biscuits and gravy stealing the show. The French toast was very yummy as well, and admirably priced at $8 for 3 generous pieces. Our waitress was friendly and fun, and although this Valentines day was a crazy busy day for the Old Diner, she made a point to come back several times To check on us. Great food! Great service! Great time!

    A taste of old St. Cloud that still feels like home. We've been coming to Rodeo Diner since we…read moremoved to St. Cloud in 2013, back when this town still felt like the small farm community it once was. Rodeo was one of the first places we found, and it's been a favorite ever since. This newer location may be an expansion, but it still holds tight to the heart and soul of the original. From the moment you walk in, you know you're somewhere special. There's nothing flashy or overdone, just honest, old-fashioned country cooking served with a smile. The staff is genuinely friendly and courteous, and the atmosphere is refreshingly simple and unpretentious. It's the kind of place where regulars are greeted by name, and newcomers are welcomed like old friends. We always go for breakfast, no reservations needed. Just roll out of bed and roll through the door. The specials are great, the prices are fair, and the food is consistently satisfying. If you're looking for a recommendation, trust me: the Rodeo Breakfast Special will absolutely make your morning. But honestly, you can't go wrong with anything on the menu. In a world that's constantly changing, Rodeo Diner is one of the last true vestiges of what old St. Cloud used to be. It's a comforting reminder of simpler times, where good food and good people came together without all the fuss. We're lucky to have it.

    Fast, friendly service, small hometown, feel diner that definitely gives you your money's worth!read more

We happen to stumble upon Jimmy Bears BBQ and are glad we had the opportunity to try it! We came on a Friday night around 6pm, expecting the restaurant to be packed but as we walked in we quickly realized we were the only patrons there. During our time there we never saw anyone else come in either. We ordered our food to-go, and it came out relatively quickly! We felt the price was on par with similar restaurants, and very fair for the amount of food you received The food itself was overall decent. There were some items that we really enjoyed, like the Mac and cheese, three blind mice sandwich, and the Alabama white sauce!! Other items like the green beans or pulled brisket left us wanting more. The green beans did not taste fresh, and the brisket lacked seasoning/flavor. There were also a lot of fried elements like the tater tots, onion rings or even the mozzarella sticks on the three blind mice sandwich, which we feel like were all decent and not too greasy, but also know those are easy things to make regardless of where you're at! The staff was very friendly at the restaurant! They were available if we had questions, and got our food out quickly to us. The ambiance of the restaurant was a little out of date and worn. You could definitely tell this establishment/building has been here for awhile with little to no updates over the years. A few updates to the space I think would really transform it and make it look like it belongs in 2023 not 1993. We do see ourselves coming back in the future, as we saw a few other menu items we are curious about trying!
