Pop’s Diner Co.

Pop’s is always my go to when I want a great burger. There burger is the best in the area to me. I always get the one eye burger which is 2 large beef patties, topped with bacon, over easy egg, lettuce tomatoes and onions. They cook it to perfection. I always ask for it medium. I always upgrade to the garlic, cheese and bacon fries. They are amazing with a side of ranch to dip. Sometimes I dine in but during lunch I opt for take out.

This was our first time there, we went on a Saturday morning around 10am and we were told our wait would be 10 – 15 mins and probably waited less than 7. What we really appreciated was being greeted when we walked in the door. Most places these days you have a hard time finding good customer service. Also, the waitstaff is very attentive, but not in the overly annoying way. If there was dishes or if we needed refills other waitstaff other than our waitress would step in if they saw happen to walk by before her. Food was DELISH! I had the Hangover cure and it was so bomb! I can’t wait to go back!

The portions here are huge. The food is delicious! Kids eat free all day everyday. Great affordable place for a family to come and eat. Atmosphere is very relaxed. The full menu is available all day everyday as well.

This was my second visit here and they didn’t disappoint. The wait was about 30 minutes early Saturday afternoon however the place was well organized. The menu was breakfast, lunch and dinner items. This place is known for award winning breakfast particularly waffles! If your a breakfast person than this is your place… Enjoy!

Stopped at Olive Garden for soup and salad and looked across the parking lot and saw this place, looked it up on Unilocal and decided to try something new. The people here are very friendly and the portions are MORE than enough for a very inexpensive price!
They serve breakfast, lunch and dinner all day! It was a tough decision to make on what I wanted to eat, really wanted to try the gyro, but went with The Hangover Cure, which is potatoes and country fried steak topped with gravy, onions and eggs. It was MORE THAN ENOUGH! But I got a side of keilbasa as well.
Kids eat free everyday, thats awesome! Apparently they have delicious milk shakes, but I was too full to try one! I will definitely come back here!

Hadn’t been here in a while. Came in today and no country ham. No biggie though. Breakfast here is always good. Crowded on weekends but still decent food. Prices are good and service is normally great. Place is clean and kid friendly. Good spot for breakfast if you can get a seat.

Great place for a family, but the lunch and dinner menu is so-​so. Breakfast will knock your socks off though, and if you have kids they eat free, so that’s a win for parents.
The Irish coffee is on point :)

This was my first time dining at this restaurant and I’m so glad I did! I am a sucker for eating breakfast foods for dinner so this was place was quite the gem. I got the Hangover Cure which consisted of chicken fried steak and gravy, eggs and grilled onions over a bed of potatoes served on a skillet. The portion was massive and for a decent price. This place was definitely better than any IHOP or Denny’s I’ve ever been to. It was clean and spotless and the staff was friendly!

This place has the best food and service. The food came fast and it was delicious! I had gotten the Pancake Combo, and OMG it was amazing! The sausage is my favorite! But everything was super filling and delicious! The place was clean and the waiter we had was great! Overall I am very satisfied!

Awesome meal! I had the hangover skillet, which was very good, and my boyfriend had the club sandwich and he loved it! For dessert we had the bread pudding and I have to say it is the best I have ever had! Service was quick and they are all very nice there! Would recommend for a casual breakfast or lunch! Price isn’t too bad either, around 10 – 12 bucks a person.

My husband and I love this place. It is loads better than ihop. The best part is that kids eat free with each paying adult. The waitstaff is friendly without being overbearing. The food comes out quickly. Our most recent visit I came with two hungry monsters. I requested that their food come out first. The waitress said she can make it happen. Not even 10 minutes after our order was placed, the kids food came out! Any mom that brings hungry kids to a restaurant appreciates fast service!

It isn’t terrible but it isn’t great. I really do think people chalk this up to be something it’s not. As previous people stated, the service wasn’t THAT awesome. I get better service at Chick Fil A. The food is mediocre, almost the same as Denny’s. I’ve had breakfast and lunch here and they both are boring meals & not very tasty. I would like to point out that the other people who reviewed the «home fries» are completely 100% correct. They are mashed up potatoes with no seasoning. It’s weird. Three stars. Not great, not terrible.

Every time I have been here they are consistently good, my daughter loves them. Yay pops diner

We’ve never eaten here before because I thought it was a chain. Unilocaled breakfast places near where we were, and found that not only was Pop’s highly rated, but not a chain. Yay!
They were busy, but we didn’t have to wait long at all. This team of servers really worked as a TEAM and turned tables quickly. Fast and friendly service is what it’s all about!
Pretty standard breakfast fare, which is what we were looking for. I had the bacon and egg breakfast — scrambled with cheese and grits on the side. The eggs were a little over (I’m not a fan of crunchy bits in my eggs, but it wasn’t a deal breaker). The bacon was cooked perfectly. Not too crunchy, not too floppy (in the kid’s words). Hubby had the waffle combo and a side (HUGE!) of grits. The waffle was good and the grits were loaded with butter, the way we love them. The kid’s silver dollar pancakes were nothing spectacular, but they were free and who doesn’t love that? Kids eat free here all day.
All in all a good experience. About $ 35 for the three of us. A little pricey, but the service made it worth it. We’ll stop in again when we’re out near Lynnhaven.

Went here based on the reviews and felt it was just okay. Nothing amazing and delicious. Had the prime rib melt and it was ok and there fries tasted a little old. Maybe I’ll try breakfast next time.

The staff at Pop’s Diner was fantastic && the food was delicious! We planned a family meal there to celebrate our daughters baptisms and the restaurant was amazing and accommodating. They allowed us to call ahead, had the table ready, had two waitresses help us and made it such a great experience. The food was delivered quickly; we had 12 people in out party, and was perfect. Thank you for making our occasion such an easy event.

I am actually a regular here and dont know where my review went… so here is another. EVERYTHING on the menu is excellent. No joke. The service has never been anything but outstanding. The food is always fresh and their waffles are the best in the area. I eat there about every other week and the soup on Friday is crab bisque… and it is to die for.
This is a real family business and Pop spends his time between here and Chesapeake. So refreshing in a world of chain resurants!

Good breakfast. Got the Hangover. Enough for two people. Prompt and friendly service even though they were busy.

Crowded today so service was a little slower than normal but the staff was very apologetic.
The food was great and it was a pleasant experience. We have been here several times and will visit again. Kids eat free makes this a tremendous deal but the food is why we keep coming back.

Food was awesome! Server took kinda long but her service was pretty good. We had a big party and they accommodated us well.

Incredible service. Seriously. Southern hospitality is essentially rooted here, even on a busy Sunday morning. I was seated, waited on, fed, and given the check in the blink of an eye.
I ordered the waffle with strawberries on top. It was good. I had majorly been craving just that. Was it the best waffle of my life? No. Was it a respectable waffle? Definitely. The skillets definitely seem to be where your bang for your buck really is, but, sadly, I am not an egg fan.
The vibe here would be perfect for a family. If you have kids, check it out.

This place must be way overrated by the locals. I eat breakfast all over the country. It’s a pretty normal breakfast. French toast was okay, not enough batter, wet bread. Bacon was defly precooked, even though I asked for soft bacon, didn’t get that. Home fries are the mushy pile style of onions and potatoes. The home fries don’t come with the French toast breakfast but server asked if I wanted a side, charged me for them. Eh.

One of the most disgusting bathrooms I’ve ever had to use. Blood and urine on the floor; blood on the wall; overall filthy. One stall. Use the bathroom before hitting this place up. The food took a long time to get to us. It was good (thus the two stars instead of one) but the service was neither good nor friendly. I like the Pop’s out at Greenbrier and decided to try this one after church one day. I will never make that mistake again. Just plain gross.

The service here is always welcoming. Delicious food too. My favorite thing to get is usually the Waffle Combo with Strawberries with a side of fruit and grits. The fruits are fresh and great with to eat along with the waffle. The food does come out pretty quick when it’s not busy. I haven’t had any terrible here yet! Very fair pricing too.

Kids eat free i love that, the food is good and comes out quick, for the price i would rather eat at some place l a little more upscale, but the location and the kids eat free keeps me coming

The only reason I’m giving this place 2 stars is because the service was incredible. From the moment we walked in we were greeted with warm smiles and welcoming staff. Our waitress was sweet, attentive and fast! The food came out quickly but it was awful.
I ordered an iced coffee but it tasted like pure sugar, I couldn’t drink it. I ordered the daily special which was a turkey, mushroom, swiss omelet. The mushrooms were fresh out of the can (Ew!). The home fries were not home fries at all. More like mushy/​fried potatoes with onion powder, possibly the worst thing there. Finally the pancakes had this weird chemical taste to them. I don’t know how you can mess up breakfast so bad. For the first time, my fellow Unilocalers let me down. With the overall good rating I was expecting at least edible food. We ate virtually nothing we ordered and left extremely disappointed with the food. This is on my «never try again» list.

We tried this spot out recently after a doctor’s appointment. The prices were low and the food quality and amount was beyond my expectations.
Staff were super friendly.
Coffee was delicious.
This is a great local mom/​pop spot. Nice little spot to check out if you dont want to hit up other related restaurants like waffle house or ihop.

Breakfast is the most important meal of the day and with places like Pop’s, you can be sure to get your day started properly.
Located on the periphery of the Lynnhaven Mall, there’s enough parking even if it’s busy. This morning, it wasn’t too busy. Coffee to start and then I opted for the Grecian Omelet, which arrived a few minutes later. A good portion with plenty of feta cheese and tomatoes, maybe not as much in the red peppers and onions department. But it was tasty!
On the side, a good portion of really excellent home fries. Maybe a few drops of Texas Pete and they were perfect.
Coffee was refilled often and it was good. Free wifi worked well.
A nice restaurant, I would return!
