Philadelphia Cheesesteak Adventure
James P.

I went to Upland diner with high expectations and we all know how that goes. It was morning so I got a cheesesteak and egg sandwich. They have a pick window. Order at the window and they will bring your food to your car. This was a fresh roll and I love it when I pick up a fresh roll. It was $12.29 after tax. As a cheesesteak with egg it was small. As an egg and cheesesteak sandwich I would have liked home fries. I didn't like the fried onions. It was a good sandwich and a very nice woman waited on me but it could have been better. Reese chocolate Chip pancakes caught my eye!!

Cream beef

Respectable breakfast food. I would come to this diner over Springfield diner for the food any day. Their hollandaise options hit the spot as well as the sticky bun toast. I tried the cream beef this time around with sour dough toast which was solid. The waitress was super nice too. She was the only one for the entire restaurant I believe.

Chicken fried steak, poached eggs, toast and fries

Upland is a locally owned diner gem worth trying. Upland has The BEST New England clam chowder in any diner in the entire Delaware Valley. I know you're saying to yourself how can I make that outrageous claim. Well, I've probably tasted New England clam chowder in at least 50 places in the entire Delaware Valley and for the price,no other diner beats Upland Diner. It's the only one in these parts that makes it as a true old fashioned New England clam chowder. Including plentiful chunks of clams is a no-brainer but this place makes it the authentic New England Way with hunks of lean slab bacon, chopped smallish. The bacon gives it that hearty smoky flavor that clam chowder(Chowda) in New England typically tastes like. Then microscopically chopped celery onions and carrots. Yum! That's one of the keys for good clam chowder. The celery,onions and carrots have to be as I tiny as possible so they add flavor instead of competing with the clams, potato and broth. If you decide to stop by for anything make sure you try clam chowder. But this place is more than just that. It's a down-home diner serving all the diner stuff that we love. Burgers, entrées, some seafood,Comfort foods like meatloaf and turkey and fried chicken. They have all the pudding's and Jell-O's you could ask for and also ice cream. They also have a very tall glass case full of cakes and pies. I would say about 50% of their clientele are from the hospital across the street and the rest would be neighbors and old-timers who moved away from the neighborhood 30 years ago who come back for a reasonably priced good meal. It makes this place feel homey and special. I've never had a bad meal here in 10 years and my service is always been very good. Breakfast lovers: the Upland breakfast has a variety of items including eggs and it's cheap at $7.19 For the Hearty eaters there's a breakfast called the Big Man's which is a bigger version at $8.49. Today I had the turkey entrée which came with two sides of mashed potatoes and coleslaw and a soup and dessert for $10.49. Can you guess which soup I chose??? :-)

I would say for an affordable meal you can't go wrong with Upland diner. 2 mins from my house so it's a go to for us. Will continue going as long as I'm living in the area, or they give me a reason to not come anymore haha.

Crazy fries

This is one of the only diners around that my family enjoys. The food is good and so is the service. They also have some unique things on the menu such as the crazy fries. They are delicious!!

My wife, brother-in-law, and I stopped in to enjoy some breakfast. We received quick service, they were attentive, and I enjoyed the pancakes. They also have an area designated for deliveries, I have picked up doordash from them without any problems. Def add it to the list of places to go in the area.

The Upland Breakfast

I believe this place needs a little more love. Just a little.... I hadn't been here in many years, but found myself in the area recently and wanted to see if it was still any good. It's been around long enough but doesn't seem to get enough Yelp attention. Let's change that now. The place is generally clean, it was pretty busy on a Friday morning at 10, and service was fast enough. You can't beat their specials. $2.25 gets you eggs, home fries, and toast during the week until 11am. I decided to upgrade a bit and went for the Upland Breakfast which gets you a short stack choice of pancakes or French Toast with eggs and your choice of meat for $5.60. That's definitely cheaper than a lot of places for this combination. French Toast, scrambled, and scrapple for me, please! I judge diner quality on how well they make French Toast. I call it my French Toast Test. Diners make this differently all over the place. So, I'll say that they passed the test. However if the best French Toast I ever had is an A+, I'll put the French Toast here in the B- category. It was fine, but not special. Not too much batter in the toast, browned just right, no powdered sugar on it which is a slight letdown. Couldn't taste much cinnamon or any flavoring. It was pretty basic. Perhaps they save the good stuff for the other French Toast dishes they have on the menu such as the stuffed toast. But I ate it and had no complaints. That sums up the meal I had overall. It was fine. I didn't feel like I had anything special. But I did feel like I got a good deal for the money and that's worth some praise.

Breakfast menu

They have a HUGE menu that even my vegan friend had multiple options! I ended up with the hungry man'a breakfast which was so cheap for what they served! It's basically 2 meals for the price of 1! Their pancakes, sausage, and bacon were pretty standard which was fine with me because of how cheap it was! The house fries were a bit bland but add some salt and pepper and you'll be good to go! I also tried my friend's beets and they were good! The service there was great! Multiple people kept checking in with us to make sure we were served and happy! They're very nice and personable!

Service was slow. The waitress did not offer a desert that was part of the meal. Flavor was acceptable.

Whoooooo!!!!!! This is a local GEM! I choose to eat here at…read more1pm on Christmas day 2023 for the FIRST TIME Ever in Ridley Park, Pa. I was PLEASANTLY SURPRISED! for a local small diner the food was absolutely amazing! When I walked in it was packed with people and breakfast was being served all around,along with other dishes. I ordered the Grilled Chicken Greek salad with oil n vinegar dressing. The portion was amazingly huge, enough for 2 . The grilled chicken was fresh and seasoned just right, not bland not overly seasoned but perfect! I also ordered the Meatloaf and double mashed with gravy. HOLD ON...STOP...this meal surpasses your expectations! The meatloaf was as if I made it in my own kitchen! It was the perfect blend of meats flavor and seasonings.The mashed potatoes are actually homemade and delicious as well! The atmosphere doesn't have ambiance . The prices are fair! The staff is professional and friendly. The owner greets you at the entrance as you wait to be seated with a friendly smile. MUST TRY! You will not be disappointed!

Frustrating late night menu Restrictions and poor management…read more. I am really disappointed with the recent service and policy changes here. This used to be a go-to spot, but the late-night restrictions make no sense. Why can't anyone order anything but breakfast after 2:00 AM? To make matters worse, they stop serving soup completely after midnight. People want options late at night, not a severely cut-down menu. On top of the frustrating food rules, the management is incredibly disappointing. The manager, Marge, is consistently rude during almost every visit. She has a terrible attitude, shows zero customer service skills, and makes an already frustrating dining experience much worse. Between the restricted menu and the hostile management, it is hard to justify coming back here.
