D-K Diner

A classic American diner. Went here for a late breakfast/​lunch with 2 of my buddies. Not sure if they knew we were coming, but they gave us one of the best seats in the house. We had a corner to ourselves with a fair amount of room around us as well. Our service was top notch and very quick.
We had a polite waiter who was respectful to me and my acquaintances. I ordered the bacon cheeseburger while the other two each ordered a number 16, which was one of the weekend specials. Our food came in about 10 minutes after ordering. The bacon was supreme as it was tasty and crispy. Although my burger was on the smaller side, I still throughly enjoyed it and the fries weren’t bad either. I didn’t taste the number 16, but I only heard good things about it.
The only negative about this place is that they only accept cash, but their is an atm for those who only carry cards on them. Overall, me and my friends had a nice meal with some good conversation. Would come back here again.

Gave this diner a second chance today after horrible experience at Nudy’s in Frazer. The 1^st time I went to DK, the waitresses were literally screaming at each other. Food wasn’t special, walked out with a headache so I looked elsewhere else. Went back today and had steak and eggs, and it was delicious. Steak was cooked perfectly and not fatty. Eggs were done to perfection, and coffee wasn’t weak — and they always filled up my cup — and collected the dirty dishes. Also appears that they’ve switched their wait staff — younger and quieter — and extremely friendly. Couldn’t ask for more

I’ve been going to DK Dinner for over thirty years. I love the DK super burger and the big bacon cheese burger. I ordered a bacon cheese burger yesterday. I received a tiny burger not the usual ¼ pounder I’ve known for years. I brought it up to the waitress and she brought it to the attention of the owner. He claimed they are pre-​weighed and did not take responsibility for using a small burger by accident.
Goodbye.
I hate being lied to.

Went over the weekend and had a delicious breakfast burrito. Coffee it good and they are always there for a refill. Staff is as friendly as they come and I will be back soon!

Gave this place two chances. It failed both times. The coffee is just diner coffee, nothing to comment about it. But the food is pretty bad. I wouldn’t even say its as basic as any other diner. It just tastes bad. The second time I went, I took two bites of my eggs benedict and couldn’t eat anymore. The positive aspect of it: they didn’t charge me for the eggs benedict since I couldn’t eat it.

Come on in if you want to exercise your jaw muscles while eating bland and unappealing food!
The accommodations: clean. Organized. Old diner feel. Pleasant aesthetic.
Service: attentive. Friendly.
Food: tasteless. Chewy. Sterile.
I ordered eggs Benedict with shredded potatoes. Oh. And coffee. The coffee wasn’t bad for diner coffee. Anyway. The eggs? They’re supposed to be poached. These were but in that familiar McDonald’s style perfect cylinder. The hollandaise sauce was runny and without flavor. The back back was rubbery.
The shredded potatoes were chewy. Like, hard plastic. With the same taste. It tasted like they were washed in soupy water and cooked. Honestly, the entire meal tasted like it was prepared in a microwave oven. I do not recommend this place.

Love this diner. The food is consistent and fast. During the winter months they have dinner Wednesday through Friday, which is cool and there is nothing like a good hot turkey sand with mashed potatoes! My kids love going and they have the best chocolate chip pancakes!

Good breakfast, typical diner fare. The staff was very friendly and the service was quick. I had a waffle and corned beef hash. The diner itself was really cute.

I’m sorry but this guy treats his employees like crap, to the point where it out weighs the nostalgic feel of the place. The place is fairly small so no matter where you’re sitting your can hear the gremlin in the back really putting his «help» (that’s what he calls them, to their faces) through the ringer. I’ve been there three times and I’ve heard racist, sexual and derogatory comments and will not be back. And the long hair monster who wanders the place in your scrunchy? consider a hairnet… And a smile. And a career change. The food, atmosphere and owner are better at Market Street Grille. Trust me!

No matter where I travel, a great diner is a luxury for me. Some people find happiness with super fancy, I find joy discovering a fab diner. While recently visiting beautiful West Chester, (My new home in a week), I stopped in at D-​K Diner. Authentic, perfect diner heaven. Food was great and cheap. Owner is a pisser. Patrons and staff friendly, interesting and helpful. I will be living here once I relocate. If you appreciate an authentic diner experience, do not miss this place!

quick and easy diner with a simple and cheap menu

DK diner is a cute, retro, old school diner with good food. I am glad this place still exists. It’s like stepping back in time when you walk inside.
The menu is nothing fancy, but that’s why it’s a diner! Prices are very reasonable and service is great.
What’s not to like? If you’re feeling nostalgic, stop by.

Went here for supper. I actually got a salad as I had already had eggs that day. The salad was huge and exceptional. Way way above normal diner standards.
They had a nice selection of dinner entrees to choose from. The waitresses were attentive and helpful.
The place was small, but very clean.
I need to go back and get breakfast. If its as good as the dinner then this place should get 5 stars.

I’ve only been here once. The staff seemed very friendly and the service was fast and attentive.

Nothing fancy. Just a hot typical breakfast-​diner.
We stop in regularly and are always early enough to beat the crowds.
Omelets and homefries are great.

Went today, 12/​16, for breakfast ~ No acknowledgement upon arrival; however, everyone else that came in after me and my boyfriend received it. We were asked if we would split a table with the couple that came in directly after us (asking them first). We declined so the table was given to the other couple. The lady of that couple let the hostess know we were there first and the hostess said that she wasn’t worried about us. And chuckled. After a minute or so, we were told another 3 mins. At that point, we left. That will be the first and last time we will go there.

Good diner. In my own experience I’ve had both better and worse. Probably 3.5 for me but am going conservative for now.

Hey, it’s a diner! I always stop by to have two eggs over easy and the corned beef hash. How can you go wrong with this? The service is ok and there is plenty of on site parking.

This place is great! I love that they serve classic breakfast foods, plus some of their own daily and weekend specials. The classic diner feel really adds to the experience, along with the friendly wait staff. If your looking for a family-​friendly place that serves great tasting breakfast foods, than this is the place for you!

More like 2.5 stars. Standard run-​of-​the-​mill diner with the common options you find available for breakfast (e.g., omelettes, pancakes, french toast, etc) just about anywhere. Food itself was very mediocre. Generic/​cheap American cheese in my omelette with less than fresh produce. Coffee was bland and burnt. Ditto for the home fries which really could have used a little seasoning besides just salt. Only real exception was that you could sub grits for the home fries.
Prices were fairly cheap and most of the breakfast/​brunch options were $ 6-​$ 8 which included toast and home fries. With coffee & tip, it probably was closer to about $ 9-​$ 10/​person. Service was efficient but not terribly friendly either. Younger kids (teens/​early 20s) who were generally indifferent.
Given that there aren’t a ton of other family-​friendly options for breakfast on a Saturday/​Sunday, it isn’t a bad option. Certainly on par with the West Chester Diner out on Route 3. Still, there isn’t any special about this place either besides the fact that it has been around for a long time (open since 1947) and some of the chrome décor on the inside. Not a place I will come back to again for breakfast if I had my choice or that I would bring my parents too if they come down to visit.
Tip — They don’t expect plastic so make sure you have cash because there isn’t an ATM located next door. Parking lot also gets crowded with your best bet is to drop off people and park in the adjacent parking lot right next door.
