Excellent burgers. A great place to call and pick up orders on the go. Or come to sit, eat, and stay for a while. Ambiance is traditional 90's decor and the staff has been friendly so far. My new go to place for when I don't want to go far from home. read more

Generic diner with a small, cramped space. The decor is outdated, and not in a cute diner way, more of a dingy gross way. Some of the servers are locals that have been working there for a number of years and do not show the slightest amount of enthusiasm whatsoever. The menu is large, but the food is very very bland. Unless you absolutely have to, I'd give this place a pass. read more

This diner got everything right and huge portions to uh--die for. I used to live in Manhattan and now I live in FL. so I did not really want to leave, but they started sweeping around me (LOL) as I had to have my last bites of my Chicken Souvlaki Platter. It was about closing time... The Taziki was homemade, there were a lot of olives, crispiest fries, stuffed grape leaves all surrounding this amazing gigantic souvlaki and greek salad. The soups were great and homemade, we were all very happy. read more

So maybe it's because I'm a Londoner... but I love this place! To me. it is exactly what a proper American diner is all about. The quintessential aluminium (British pronunciation) building, the waitress that could be your mother, the booths...etc etc. The breakfast was ENORMOUS! I am not sure if we accidentally ordered three each, but it felt that way! The food was fresh, the coffee was lovely and I loved every minute of this place! read more

I was looking for breakfast in Beacon and went on Yelp for suggestions. Unfortunately, Beacon is one of those places with very few reviews so I was pretty much on my own. I ended up wandering into the Yankee Diner. I decided to go with the steak and eggs since I figured that would be hard to mess up. I requested the steak medium rare and it looked to be almost raw in parts. It was also extremely tough even though it was supposedly a NY strip cut. My dining companion had an omelet and it was similarly awful. The service was very friendly but I'd recommend going somewhere else if you're looking for a good meal. read more

A great local diner in the middle of a growing Main Street. We've been coming here for years and never had a bad experience. Portions are always generous. If you are on a special diet, just ask and they will accommodate you. Check out the new menu items! read more

Passing through, jumped off the interstate after checking out the yelp reviews, and was very happy we did. The Challah French toast deluxe was perfect, the eggs were cooked to perfection with perfect runny yokes but no runny whites, and the bacon was the perfect crispness. And the French toast was some of the best I have ever had. My husband had, a clipper wrap and said it was the best breakfast wrap he has has had and the home fried potatoes were crispy and awesome. His only criticism was the coffee was just meh... The local older gentleman at the counter entertained us with their conversation we eavesdropped on. ;) added great local flavor. The waitress was very good, perfect service given. Overall a great experience. read more

Yankee Clipper Diner - Challah French Toast Deluxe. Delicious! - American Near Me - Beacon, New York

Had to update because I tried some other dishes and wow this is more than just the same old diner read more

See all

We are going there for breakfasts (only) from time to time. Again - I will opt for 3,5 stars if i would have an option. Since I really liked it last time we have visited - will rate it 4 starts instead of 3. Service is very friendly, breakfasts are usually decent. This time they also let me create my own wrap (not on a menu) and it was delicious (portobello, home fries, onions and peppers - with salsa on a side). read more

First time ordering take out I specifically ordered BLT NO TOMATOES on rye toast. Arrived back at job and I get Lettuce and TOMATO sandwich. I call and say they gave me the wrong order. Waitress says sorry you can come back and pay for a new sandwich. WTH. I told her she made mistake. She said that's what she heard so enjoy the sandwich I got. PS I'm allergic to tomatoes and said that when ordering the sandwich. No refund, no exchange. I paid $10.48 for a meal I can't eat. Terrible way to treat a customer. Never order without looking at the order. I'm never going back again. PSS my bank is pulling back my payment read more

Beacon is fortunate to have such a nice, clean, friendly, consistent, quality diner. You always feel welcome here and if you are a local, you are bound to know at least half of the people dining there, which I love. The staff is friendly and attentive and the food always arrives in a timely manner. The menu is extensive so it's perfect for a group who is undecided on what type of food they want. Looking for take-out? No problem. They'll wrap it up for you. read more

Two eggs, over easy, link sausages, home fries, rye toast and coffee, at the counter... that's my regular breakfast when I'm overnight in Beacon, and Yankee Clipper is my go to diner! The food is as you would expect, and the service is superb! read more

Nothing exciting, nothing horrible. I usually stick to breakfast when I eat here and it's always been good. When I've tried the lunch menu it tends to be on the saltier side and I haven't been impressed. I go when I want to hang out and be very causal, and the food comes quickly which is also nice. Step up from a Denny's, but go somewhere else if you're looking to be "wowed". read more

Our favorite spot in town, just because the staff is so nice! The food is also A+ diner food. Good burgers, sandwiches, entrees, soup. Never had a bad experience. read more

Heard so many great things & maybe today was a bad day, but when you ask for drink refills & are still waiting 10 minutes later only to see your waitress sitting at the counter chatting with her co-workers. Let the manager know you'd like your refills & now the waitress is rude when she finally shows up & is visibly talking about the fact that she was spoken to, shows that customer service isn't a priority read more

Yankee Clipper Diner - Empty drink glass - American Near Me - Beacon, New York

Eggs were dry and skimp , Potatoes needed to be cooked more. Waiter never came back to check how we were doing . Had to chase him down to get more coffee. We were eating before the morning rush read more

Our food was microwaved. What kind of restaurant microwaves food? A restaurant that will never see me or anyone that was in my party again. You can tell the difference between food that is hot from the oven/pot/pan and food that is hot from being microwaved. If you can't tell the difference, this place is for you! My husband said it's my fault; diners have too many menu items for them to be fresh or delicious. I knew something was wrong when my daughters mozzarella sticks came out minutes after we ordered, the same with my calamari (I thought the were onion rings, it was something, but it wasn't calamari. Microwaved as well and sent back. Shameful. read more

Loved the service! I always ask for well done fries. Well done like when they THINK it's well done have them go another few minutes. These guys got it! Dark golden brown and crunchy - perfect for my medium burger. Wife loved the Greek lemon soup and daughter loved the Penne alla Vodka! read more

We stopped into this diner after visiting DIA:Beacon. We have a soft spot for old-school diners to begin with - but this place is a classic! Staff was incredibly friendly, service spectacular and the food, omg. Especially their mozzarella sticks that are made especially for their diner and delivered daily, YUMM! read more

Love this diner!! They have THE BEST malted milkshakes. They have literally anything you could want to eat. We love bringing the family here because everyone can get exactly what they want, no one has to compromise the service is always great. There is sometimes a little bit of a wait, but they do a great job of quickly cleaning and accommodating. read more

Solid breakfast choices and true diner ambiance. I loved the challah french toast, the bacon and the home fries - and may have helped myself to the corned beef hash that my other half ordered. Portions are really big, so I highly suggest sharing dishes. Expect to wait for a little bit on a Sunday morning, and pay at the counter when you're done. This is a solid old school diner experience. read more

Very solid New York-style Greek diner (with the incumbent massive menu) right in the heart of Main Street Beacon.

I visited this diner only once, and since I feel that you often need to eat at a diner multiple times to get a good sense of their cooking, take my review with a grain of salt. I came here for breakfast late on a mid July Sunday morning, when it was more humid out than being inside of a sauna. It was very crowded inside but we were seated and served promptly. My friend and I enjoyed breakfast, where I had french toast and eggs and my friend had a breakfast wrap. I had ordered over easy eggs, and while the egg looked over easy, it was still a little runny which was a bit disappointing and slightly nauseating. I will give it another chance, however, since my best friend raves about their spinach and egg white wrap. We'll see about my next visit! read more

Yankee Clipper Diner - American Near Me - Beacon, New York

The exterior and interior of the place is super cool, so a group of 6 us decided to come for lunch. One of my friends and I ordered the butternut squash soup (soup of the day). More like sweet puke of the day. It pretty much tasted like sweet sugared orange custard from a jar. It was so sweet and inedible. I had at least 4 bites and my friend only 1. We would have said something to our server, however we were getting vibes that he hated us and wanted as little as possible to do with us. The wrapped premade factory crackers on the side were a delight though! My husband's buffalo chicken wrap was oooook, but the chicken inside was kinda luke warm. It tasted like the chicken was not grilled or anything, just chucked into the microwave. It wasn't the worst and I couldn't eat my soup, so we shared it. The blue cheese dip was good, so feel free to try that out! The rest of what my friends ordered were meh. I suspect we'll never come back and that's cool. We've been to Beacon a couple of times and eaten at various places, this has by far been the worst place. Kinda feel bad giving such a bad review, but I think someone needs to review what's going on in the kitchen! read more

The food was fine.... service, that's a different story. For now reason at all that we could tell the waitress was just inattentive. Add to that the cleaning product used at the table next to us left tasting it. Won't be back read more

Ummmmm challah French toast is bomb as f*ck!! Super busy Sunday for brunch but they are on top of things and the wait is never exhausting. Breakfast here never disappoints. read more

I love it at the Yankee Clipper it's my favorite restaurant in Beacon I love there Chocolate Chip Pancakes and that's all it's all I get

Weekday morning visit left me unsatisfied. The place is spotless and I love the retro styling. However, the service was mediocre as was the food. Several staff members had permanent scowls including our server. I don't expect stellar hospitality in a diner but minimal effort at being friendly was made here. The food took entirely took long for simple breakfast plates with a dining room at no more than half capacity. Weak service and speed could be overlooked if the food was good but, alas, it was underwhelming. Perhaps I caught them on an off day. The place has its charm and I've visited far worse diners. read more

This place is great! The servers were friendly, service was fantastic, food was delicious, and it was so clean! It was late and we were really hungry. We got a variety of dishes and everyone left happy and satisfied. Highly recommend! read more

Classic diner. Has everything a diner needs. Always a solid place to go for any meal per day. Casual feel and expected diner quality food.

Stopped here to grab a bite to eat after a day out with friends and we were all completely thrilled with the quality of the food and service. The people who work and own the place are kinda and hospitable! 10/10 recommend this diner to anyone in the area looking for a quick bite. read more

My family and I have been coming to this diner since I was a kid and I was nothing bad to say about the service or quality of food. However, I placed an order for chicken tenders with some waffle fries and upon picking it up was told the total was $16.98!!!! That is beyond insane to me. You can get cheaper tenders and fries at Yankee STADIUM. Idk if it was a mistake or what but that was crazy read more

Pretty good food and not bad prices at all! Convenient location right on Main Street in beacon and the workers are all super nice there. They are always busy which is a good sign and the place is pretty clean read more

Eggs and hash browns were meh. Order something else. English muffins and milkshakes are excellent. We went on a Sunday morning and it was so busy the staff was flying around at hyper speed. Bathrooms were clean. Imitation MSB Ketchup on the table was empty. Overall good. read more

This place has been a frequent stop for me for decades... Everyone employed here is very warm and welcoming...

We showed up with a party of 22 and they were incredibly accommodating and sat us immediately! They had our food ready so quickly for how large of a party had just invaded. I was expecting a wait and was pleasantly surprised food was delicious as well I don't know why they don't have a higher rating!! read more

We love the Yankee Clipper - it's our place to go when we want comfort food and friendly service. The Greek Salad is a favorite, and recently I've really enjoyed the Blue Pear Salad. Tuesday is Lentil Soup night, and it's my favorite. And their "cream of" soups are to-die for! read more

Came in, was seated at a tiny booth, while plenty nicer ones were open. Sat there for ten min while waiters and waitresses flashed nasty looks and kept walking past us. We eventually got up and went to another place across the street that was way better. Not to mention this places decor literally will drain the energy out of you, run down and dingy to say the least. Save your time and money go elsewhere for a good experience. read more

I really like this diner, particularly for breakfast. They are fast, generous with portions, and reasonably priced. I have one issue and that's over their choice to cook their sides on the same surfaces they cook their pork/bacon on. The home fries pretty much taste like bacon...and I'm a non-pork eater so I have to order alternatives. I want my diner experience to include home fries!! When I need a homefries fix, I now go to Beacon Falls cafe or Beacon Bread. read more

The rating is strictly for the food. Well, it is also a real diner, and that's funky. It is clean and shiny, and that counts. The food was very good, and it is plentiful. I would not rate it "diner food." My wife had pork chops, and I had chicken rustica. It was tasty and more than we could finish. Both locals and travelers were there. The waitress was helpful and pleasant. read more
