Great vintage diner, circa 1948. Classic bar stools and booths in front, thoughtfully renovated addition in back. Menu has a few nice surprises and food was great. New owner, Stephanie, made us feel right at home. We'll be back. read more

We enjoyed a nice early breakfast at Tim's yesterday. It is even bigger on the inside with a back room. I loved the decorations and old pictures on the walls. Service was friendly and accommodating -- she was handling lots of tables by herself. Impressive! I'm sure we will be back in the future! read more

Tim's Diner - Scrambled Eggs Benedict - Diners Near Me - Leominster, Massachusetts

Step aside, corporate coffee chains and frozen breakfast burritos... Tim's Diner in Leominster has officially reclaimed its throne as the undisputed heavyweight of hearty breakfasts and small-town soul. After I believe 7 decades, Tim's is under new ownership, but kept its classic charm... my omelet was packed like a duffel bag before deployment, and the home fries were crisp... the coffee mug is a beacon of bottomless optimism brewed for all us blue-collar philosophers. You feel like you're getting hugged by an old friend, and the crowd of regulars swapping stories, not scrolling their iPhones. Big congrats to the new owners, they didn't just buy a diner, they adopted a piece of history and gave it a fresh coat. Whether you're a Leominster lifer or just swinging through, this is your new breakfast home base. read more

I went to Tim's Diner for the first time today despite living in Leominster for 10 years. You know how some small places ignore you if you're not a regular? There was none of that at Tim's, my husband and I were greeted by everyone behind the counter (all women! We love to see it!) and were treated like old friends. Who knows, maybe we'll become regulars! read more

We went here after a firefighter's memorial downtown Leominster. They were so busy, however, they were very attentive to all our needs. Always getting a fresh top off, of the best coffee!! My veggie omlet was packed with veggies and swiss cheese, so good!!! Great home fries and toast! I was so full had to take half home!! Which i finished for supper. I love the atmosphere of all the Black and White photos of Leominster's history! They had a great back room that was bigger than the restaurant it looks!! Parking was easy right across the street! You want a nice local gem of a breakfast place, give it a try!! read more

Tim's Diner - Diners Near Me - Leominster, Massachusetts

With all the diners near by I would say this place has a lot of character just driving by. They also treat their customers well but their food isn't that great in my experience. Unfortunately this was what my fiance got me for breakfast in bed on my birthday. I tried with all my life to try to enjoy the breakfast food he got from this place. The only food I enjoyed from the meal was the toast. Even the toast was kind of dry. read more

We stopped at Tim's Diner for breakfast this morning as we were passing through the area. When she saw the building, my wife exclaimed "It's a real diner!" As you can see by the photos (below), it is. More importantly, though, it was a great place to eat breakfast. The service was personal, friendly, and efficient, and food was really good. I ordered a single pancake that was light, delicious and as big as my plate. Along with with an order of hash, it made for a great breakfast/brunch. My wife had eggs over easy, with hash, potatoes and toast, all of which she thoroughly enjoyed. The lunch selections looked interesting and appetizing, and we hope to have an opportunity to check them out. We learned that the diner is 65 year's old, founded by Tim Sr, father of the current owner, Tim Jr. In addition to the original diner area, there is a dining room in the rear. Here's hoping Tim's remains for many more years...we pass through the area a lot and are always on the lookout for a great place to stop. read more

Hello, Tim's Dinner is excellent! Always excellent food and drink. I haven't been there for a while but as far as I know things haven't changed. Breakfast and brunch hours and wonderful coffee! Always just what I wanted. Tim's Dinner is in a small building off of Main St. downtown in Leominster. At times Tim's Dinner is packed. Other times it is quiet if you encounter the place, say, after 10 am. Enjoy traditional dinner food at Tim's Dinner in Leominster! Ida a consumer read more

I am showing my townie loyalty on this post. Tim's is a staple train car diner located down town Leominster. It's in its second generation of awesomeness. If you are looking for a homemade meal this is the place. I recommend the counter were you can see Tim in his element . His short order cooking skills are second to none. The food is cooked to order how ever you like. Pancakes bigger than the plate. Tim's fish chowder is their own and it is tasty. Fridays baked haddock sells out in minutes.if your in a hurry no problem how fast can you eat because your food is in front of you almost as fast as you order it. Best diner in town. read more

Outstanding , super fast , economical Tim is legend and watching him work is watching a master chef !! read more

Great breakfast, great and friendly service! Best home fries I've had in this town! I'm glad I stopped in this morning, will definitely be back soon. When my daughter tried to order an omelette the waitress was kind enough to mention that it's way too much food for a kid. My daughter and I split it and it was plenty! My other daughter had a pancake, it was great! Good stuff! read more

I grew up coming to this tiny place my entire life and it has to be one of the cutest places near downtown Leominster. This makes you feel like your taking part in some history while eating some good breakfast. The pancakes are huge and this place runs on regulars but everything I go here it's a new memory! Just be aware that you may feel out of place but these kind of places are the best ones. If you haven't tried Tim's go for the old fashion diner experience along with some good food! read more

Best diner in town family owned always great service no waiting. Friendly home cooked food Tim's the best. read more

Best of the best and can't be beat...classic atmosphere, expect a conversation with a stranger as well as great food, friendly service and fair prices. Tim gets it right every single time. I took a work colleague from CA there last week and for the next two days I heard "that was so awesome, we just don't have that out west" about a 100 times! read more

Great small breakfast place , great prices . Good people . Not much more needs to be said . Quaint !

Poor service. Stood there for 4 minutes had to grab the waitress and ask for service. She actually said "what"then 3 people walked in, before they even sat down she was getting their coffee. Then she disappears. The cook had to give me my order and cash me out and of course he was busy so he had to rush. So if your not a regular I don't recommend this diner. read more

Just a few blocks away lies a local breakfast spot where you will get fast service with a smile. I tried most the breakfast items,always fast and taste great. Don't be deceived by the small front , there is more seating in the back. A Leominster staple for generations to come. read more

great little diner, sort of hidden away next to downtown leominster, food was great and service friendly, a cold day and sort of chilly near the windows and it is small, mabe tiny is the right word.....good breakfast!!!!! read more

I grew up in Leominster and I don't know how many times I've driven by Tim's. Moved to the area with my family in 1980. Here it is 2017 before I made my first trip through the door that I still try and push rather than pull as it suggests. Once a week I try and make Tim's a part of my morning. Gail, Frank and Tim start my day right. Every time I am passed a plate that struggles to contain the food on it my mouth alerts me to the treat in store for me. All my senses are awakened as I prepare to clean a plate of my usual veggie omelette, home fries and homemade toast. If I had my way I'd start every morning at Tim's but I'm content giving my tastebuds something to look forward to on my days off. read more

This place is adorable!! Like a diner stuck in time, something like out of "Back to the Future" that Marty McFly found himself in from the 50s. Carol is an amazing waitress and the food was great. Cash Only. Come visit this gem read more

I stopped in last Sunday morning for breakfast. It's a very small place with just 4 booths and seating for 10 or so at the counter. The breakfast menu is very limited.Owner/cook Tim and staff are very friendly and we had a nice conversation about diners etc.It turns out we have some mutual friends . Service was quick ,my meal was good and reasonably priced.I only give it 3stars 'cause of the limited selection.Don't call the phone number listed ...It isn't theirs. read more

Tim's is a memorial to my developments in life I love the food and homey feeling and the staff are like family

I ran into this gem by accident. They have great hours for night owls like me who know breakfast is really at 4am. I meant tim himself A very sweet gentleman. I would definitely suggest going here! read more

Very good diner fare- shockingly quick, even for a diner.

Tim's going are in business over 40 years still was good is the day they open giant omelettes bacon and eggs $4.10 you got to go here

Great little diner where they treat you like family. Top of the line diner food at good prices. Love their fish chowder, but wish they would do clam chowder on occasion. read more

Small, warm diner. I don't get here nearly enough, but when I do I'm not disappointed. Great breakfast dishes. Served quick and well prepared. Seating can be limited but yes a great hidden gem for breakfast! I am looking forward to my first visit during lunch. Sometime soon!! read more

Tim's Diner is a wonderful little gem. The food is all cooked to order. The food is actually amazing, breakfast served all day and lunches are cooked in the diner. People are surprised by the size, once you walk in you realize the diner can seat 50. This is a place everybody should try, just a warning if you go in once you will keep going back. The food is that good. read more

This place is great. It is clearly a locals place and has all the grit and charm of a no-nonsense diner. I had the throw-it-on-the-floor, which is an egg scramble with potatoes and meat. It was exactly what I wanted and tasted great. I think it was much better than what you would expect at any other diner like this. read more

Great breakfast. Attentive with good prices and portions. Very laid back and i love the fact tim and the rest of the staff make small talk! Very old school. read more
