Trip’s Diner

Not good only gave two stars because of how fast food was served. But after that forget about seeing your server until they bring the bill.

Holy F’ing sh*t this omelette was good … I never thought crab and eggs will go well together after i looked at the menu but oh my i was wrong. Delicious simple as that. My gf told me to try it out, ordered the crab omelette and some french toast and both were yummy… the home fries felt like i had fireworks in my mouth

Not as good as the original but still a pretty good diner. The food is good’ breakfast delicious. Staff is hit or miss at this location as far as friendlyness.

Everything was so good! The biscuits and gravy, and cheese grits are almost sinful! We will definitely be going back as often as possible!

Both of Trip’s Diners are good.

Although its an ok place what could they do wrong to eggs and bacon for breakfast. The only gripe I have is when I ordered the bowl of corn chowder apparently someone must have put the spoon that stirs this up in the back with some seafood that I am highly allergic too, and sent it back. The soup was good at first then I ordered it again last week and that I found that the taste was more like fish like, which to me is totally disgusting. I am glad I did not finish it. For me who is alerigic to shell fish. I do not know if I will be back, for the help to take the same spoon to stir up the previous soups, use the right spoon and do not mix, cause someone like myself can get really sick then what happens then? The lunches are ok, salads and chicken sandwiches. eggs for breakfast. I prefer to go to mammas down the street where I know they buy their food from systco and here gs foods which is good but not as good as systco. But the food is a three siblings names to it, like the one in down town Tripps. (triplets) its an ok place but if you do not mind your soups to be dispensed by another taste. not something for me to have… but overall I give it an a ok place. There is not much they can do with eggs.

Not happy about this place. Had the corned beef hash and it was full of grizzle and the place smelled like spoiled fish.

This place had delicious food! The kids meal is generous, three kids had: pancake, bacon, scrambled eggs, mac n cheese with fruit, fries and we had the club sandwich and the meatloaf with cole slaw, all perfect!
Cute comfy diner interior, great service, and that all at 3pm in the afternoon!

The Best Diner. We are so lucky in Seminole. Very Clean. Home cooking!
Always fresh. Excellent well trained wait staff. It’s a regular stop for me. I have tried so many things on the menu. Eggs Benedict, Chicken Melt, Pulled Pork, Mac n Cheese to die for.
Once you go to Trip’s Diner it is hard to stay away.

We love Trip’s because it’s within walking distance of our place, so we can pop in on a weekend morning for a quick breakfast.
I’ve never had bad food here. They have an extensive cheese selection for their omelettes, which is important for me. And their bacon! Oh my goodness, their bacon is delicious.
Hubcakes, or pancakes the size of a hubcap, are also a good order. You can get them topped with various fruits, or stuffed with chocolate chips.
The only downside here is the service. It’s usually just so-​so. Usually every time we go, no matter what server we have, they end up forgetting something from our order.
It’s incredibly affordable, though, and leaves you just the right amount of full.

I hesitate to use the words «best ever» in reviews, but Trip’s II delivers. It is as good or better than the original location.
Top quality ingredients, cooked perfectly with small, memorable unique flairs (without leaping off the edge of reason into hipster hades).
Pretty much the perfect breakfast spot… I’m not even going to point out highlights, it’s all perfection.
If there was a religion built around a Diner-​based Deity, this place would be the messiah.
The thick cut bacon would be the sacrament, I suppose. Or the home-​made biscuits.
Where’s the sixth star option?

We finally made it to the second location of Trip’s and our experience was just as good as our numerous visits over the years to the original Trip’s. I am happy to say that the food we ordered tasted just like it does at the 9^th St location.
The restaurant was frankly empty when we visited. It was a weekday and early in the morning, so maybe that is why. It is a shame because this location is actually must larger than the original. There are more nooks and crannies for privacy here. It is a very comfortable space.
We ordered a variety of items that included an omelet, a large «hubcap» pancake, bacon, eggs and white cheese grits. Everything was incredible as always!
The pancake and the bacon were my favorite. The pancake was nice and crispy around the edges, but thick and chewy on the inside. It was perfect. I am not sure what kind of bacon that Trip’s uses, but it is WAY better than the bacon at home or at most restaurants. Trip’s white cheese grits are always very tasty and a must if you haven’t tried them yet.
We were very happy with the new Seminole Trip’s and we will be returning.

This place can do no wrong; EVERYTHING is amazing & service is always outstanding.
While we’ve only had a few breakfast items (omelets, French toast, etc)-it’s all good.
The main stars in my opinion are the sandwiches-​BST (the best!!), Cuban, Ruben, ham & swiss are all wonderful. Meatloaf and fried chicken platter are great too.
Only suggestion is, if you get fries, order them w/​o salt, tastes sooo much better.
Enjoy!

Ate here tonight! I ordered the hub cap pancakes with cheese grits. The food arrived within 10 minutes of me getting here. That probably has more to do with the time I stopped in than anything though. Anyway the pancakes were light and fluffy, and tasted great. I also ordered some blueberries to go on them in addition to the regular syrup. Will definitely be stopping in again!

This place is even better than the original. The staff is super friendly and the food is outstanding. Everything is always fresh and the cheese grits are the best I’ve ever tasted. Love taking new people here and introducing them to the Trip’s goodness!

The experience was forgettable, nothing special. The waitress seemed unhappy and that worries me when they handle my food. I’d go to Cheddars before coming back.

I’ve wanted to try Trips Dinner in St. Pete but I ended up at the Seminole location which I believe is fairly new.
For starters we had the cheese fries and fried green tomatoes. The fries where cooked just right and we’re good, you can’t really mess up cheese fries. The fried green tomatoes were ok, the flavor of the coating was good, the sauce was tasty but the tomatoes were hard and not very flavorful .
For our main course we ordered a Ruben, Turkey sandwich and the pancake as big as hubcap. First of all, sides are really important to me. They can make or break a dish. I decided on the potato salad since it was homemade and it was really good. The potatoes were cooked just right, there was creaminess and a nice hint of dill. On to the Turkey sandwich, good amount of turkey piled on ciabatta topped with smoked Gouda and a yummy basil mayo. Great sandwich. The pancake looked good but definitely not the size of a hubcap, just the size of a plate.
Service was very good, our server was friendly, good at keeping up with refills, checking in with us.
Overall everything was good and I have not complaints and next time I will defineltly try the dessert. On our way to pay the bill you pass the desserts and they looked soooo good.

I’ve been to this restaurant twice so far and both meals were great. I first went for dinner and ordered a cup of French onion soup and a blue burger. The consumè had a great flavor with the customary croûton and cheese melted on top. I ordered the burger medium and it was cooked perfect. The burger also had sauteed onions and mushrooms. The mushrooms were good but the onions were too large.
I returned for breakfast and ordered a pancake the size of a platter and some of the thickest bacon I’ve ever had. The pancake had a nice crisp edge, which I love. The bacon was awesome. I also tried some grits but these were lumpy.
The best part of the meals wad the staff. Very friendly and the made sure I had everything I needed.

Well, Hurricane Trip gets downgraded. I’ve been back twice since my initial stellar review and neither time has it met that standard. While I reprised my Mr Crabs Omlette this time, and once again it was very good, the thick cut style bacon is simply wretched. Way too greasy the first time, way too burnt the second time, awful taste both times.
The service is very good here and I hope they make it (I think they will). The turkey sausage I had to replace the thick cut bacon was pretty good, although greasy. The fruit cup would benefit from a mix other than 90% honeydew melon.
I’m pulling for you, Trip’s. I hope you get it together. I will be back to try it again, but I was disappointed the last two times because I know you can be better than average.

What got us here??? The parking lot was incredibly packed for such an odd location on a Wednesday night. So that got our attention. So that night we said yea… it’s comfort food time.
Walking in I felt like the restaurant isn’t quite «finished» (the bar area looked bare) but we were greeted right the way and there was no table for us at all at the time so we sat at the booth. Seemed to me that they did a renovation at this place and they did a pretty good job. Very clean place from my observation.
Then, our fabulous waitress came. Nicole is soft spoken, we asked her what is really good here. then she replied… «Just let me tell you, everything is homemade here» — she seems very sure of their selections :)
She pointed out what her and her husband have had. She is super thorough when she takes order… there’s no confusion. She is so sweet, genuine, and very polite. *I have to mention her because she really is an awesome waitress*
Then our food came. We ordered:
Dinner size salad (small plate) — nice and fresh
A bowl of french onion soup — great!
A cup of chili — delicious!!!
(small) Spaghetti meatballs + garlic bread — pretty good, need more cheese!
hamburger with crumbled blue cheese + fries — fresh patty, cooked to perfection.
The food overall is seasoned well, not too salty and do not need any salt.
All in all… we will definitely come back.
