My husband and I went to the Pittston Diner because we were going to be in the neighborhood and read the good reviews that other people had posted.Our waitress was super nice and helped us with our choices. They have daily specials, senior discounts, and homemade soups and desserts. My husband had Porketta on Ciabatta bread with french fries while I had the Lemon Chicken Soup and a crab cake sandwich. We enjoyed everything we ordered. The desserts sounded delicious but we were full. We did take a piece of the Lemon Lush home to enjoy later. It was very good. The prices were reasonable, about $22 for both of us. We'd return for another meal.

Wow 6 bucks for a crappy cheese steak. All grease. It wasn't even good for nostalgia's sake. Better Hot Dogs at Abes in the hood.

Recently underwent some much-needed interior renovations with seating in classic diner car or dining room. Their claim-to-fame is that president Obama stopped in when he was campaigning. They still have the old/original bar stool at the counter (in the midst of all new stools) where he sat. Food is good. Service is average. But when a person asks for no cheese on a sandwich and asks the waitress if she can SUBSTITUTE a slice of raw onion and the waitress replies "Yes", they should not charge an extra 30 cents. When we got the bill and I questioned the waitress (it was the principle), she said "Oh, they never allow substitutes and always make us charge for anything extra that is not listed on the menu". Very poor management practice!

For more than 65 years Denny's has been bringing people together over great food. It's the place where people can relax and be themselves; where they can enjoy classic American comfort food and everyday value. 24 hours a day. 365 days a year. Here, you ca

We stopped in this past weekend and had a nice breakfast. I'm surprised by the negative reviews but this location did just open a few months ago so maybe they had to work out the kinks. They had a nice crowd but we were seated immediately and our server Amy was very good. A manager checked on us while we ate and an owner grabbed me a coffee refill on his way through. Amy even gave us a coupon to use on our bill. It's your standard Denny's and it was clean. We both had coffee,scrambled eggs, hash browns and sausage gravy on biscuits and it was good. Good food and fast and polite service.
