What is it that you're looking for?
If it's high-end atmosphere, polished service with exquisite plating....
then skip this place.
If it's a mid-range Diner experience with a super-casual and laid back homey feel....then keep reading.....
The space itself is actually quite tiny, so it might be full if it's on a busy weekend morning. We went on a Saturday for breakfast and it was quiet.
The service was friendly, casual and attentive. Kind of like...you decided to go over to your buddy's place next door for some eggs and coffee cuz you were too hungover to cook yourself.....sort of vibe.
The All Day Breakfast Special was decent. Everything tasted fresh and it hit the spot. The eggs were good. The Sourdough was crispy. The Potatoes were crazy good...probably the best item on that plate.
Asked for the Stack of Pancakes but apparently the chef had other ideas and we got served the French Toast instead. That day I didn't feel like sending it back...so I didn't. The toast was a bit flat but strangely enough it also hit the spot. I loved how the cinnamon was cooked right into it.
I think Cinnamon should be right up there next to Gold...moving on....
The Chocolate Chip Cookie. When I found out it was homemade I got one. How can you not try a homemade cookie?
Don't. Not that good.
This little Diner, I would say is an acquired taste.
Give it a try...you never know..it might be yours.Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Sep 20, 2023
I love diners. Maybe it was my Archie Comics diet growing up. I wanted to hang out at Pop's Chocklit Shop when I was young. There's just something so nostalgia about diners, having burgers and milkshakes, sitting at the counter or booths.
We came here as my friend had been wanting to try the Uncle Grant eating challenge and he wanted to do try the food first.
We ate before coming here (he could do multiple meals) so I only had a milkshake. At $10+ for regular shake, it is quite pricey. I had the strawberry milkshake and saw it was made with flavored syrup. The soft serve machine had to rest between use, so if you order more than 1 milkshake , it will take some time for all to be ready. I'm just quite disappointed the milkshake is made with syrup. The plus side is you could actually mix the different flavors though they don't recommend more than 2.
My friend said the food was good, typical diner fare.
Inflation has also mean the challenge now cost around $70 if you can't finish it within 20 mins.
Come here if you want to go back in time with diner food (not the prices).Helpful 3Thanks 0Love this 2Oh no 1 - Dec 7, 2022
(More like 3.5 stars, but I'm rounding up).
My kid has mentioned Lucy's Diner many times when she was living here and in her last years of high school, saying her friends and her have gone here many times for milkshakes and fries, often super late at night. She's often mentioned how the food here is quite good and the place is open 24/7. So it's been on my radar for a while, to come here, as I love diner food.
Today was the day.
I was surprised by how tiny the diner interior was. Like, super tiny. But it was clean. And when I say it was authentically retro, I mean it; it's not pretending to be retro, it actually is. The linoleum, the table and booth finishes, the brushed aluminum, the counter and bar stools.... it's all real and all old. Worn, with character. The walls, painted a hospital green, with large photos depicting a family in the 1950's, as well as bicycle handles mounted on high. Cake stands covered by glass cloches on the counter bar, full of cookies and pies. All that was missing was a waitress named Flo.
Reading the reviews here, I was surprised to read how low all the prices are, as I was taken aback by how high the prices were (for diner fare). $10+ for a milkshake, $19.99+ for a burger and most meals. I guess that's the going rate nowadays, but don't expect to come here and get meals for a steal. It ain't happening.
So how is the food, you may ask. Damn good! I heard their breakfast foods were terrific, but we were there at lunch-time, so I ordered a classic BLT with fries on the side, and my friend ordered a Cobb salad. (See my photos). Traditional diner "comfort" food. Portions were very hearty, and all our food was fresh. My sandwich was great, with the sourdough bread perfectly toasted and lots of bacon, perfectly cooked. They sure aren't scrimping on bacon (which was nice to see!). And I don't usually eat fries, but these were TERRIFIC: not greasy in the least, crunchy outside, soft inside. My friend and I both loved the fries. And her salad was chock-full of bacon, too, with fresh produce and feta and hard-boiled eggs. We both loved our meals.
Service was slow but there's only one lady serving everyone, and she was nice, too. We figured, there's probably only one cook in the back, too. So...not that speedy, but not the worst.
My friend said the bathroom in the rear was clean and had "typical kitschy diner decor". (I didn't check it out so I've no photos).
There was lots of metered street parking out front on Main Street.
This place is a little rough around the edges, but the food is good, and if you need your diner "fix", especially late at night or in the wee hours of day, this is a great go-to place.Helpful 9Thanks 1Love this 8Oh no 0 - Quotes D.New Westminster, CanadaMay 22, 2024

love this place, neighbourhood staple. Food is great, usually pretty fast too, highlights for us, the guy who works days, think his name is Simon, never a bad thing to say about anyone, he's everywhere all the time. An asset to a busy diner. Great Bennies and sandwiches!

Had the meatloaf. Salad is no longer included. The fries were lukewarm and the meatloaf flavorless. It is very very hard to mess up meatloaf. Way too expensive for the really bad food.

Food was incredible. Simon was an absolute gem and helped out myself and my friends visiting the area and Squamish. He gave us a full breakdown of the great spots to hit complete with a written list of attractions and instructions. Can't recommend this diner enough!

Just your average diner on Main Street. Has a cute nostalgic feel. Went on a Sunday afternoon, no lineup. Had to leave a name and number and take a pump of hand sanitizer. Got seated promptly and scanned QR code for menu.
I ordered a coffee (which was refilled without asking, so that was great) and the double Benny's with chorizo sausage ($15). Served on English muffins with hash browns. Quite basic and simple - the hollandaise was a little too thick and the eggs were a tad overdone. Still tasted yummy and did the job.Helpful 4Thanks 0Love this 1Oh no 1 - Rency L.Richmond, Canada143665Aug 29, 2021
I went to Lucy's Diner for a late night fare. 8 hours later, I'm still thinking about the sad, dry chicken in my sandwich.
If you're looking to travel back in time and feel the 1950s nostalgia - Lucy's Diner is great. If you're looking to travel back in time, feel the 1950s nostalgia and eat good food - please continue searching.
I really love vintage diners, and I held my expectations high. Perhaps a little too high.
I ordered the Club Sandwich ($14.50) and although I'd like to say I enjoyed it, I'd be lying to myself and the $14.50 I paid. The sandwich was a triple decker. It had layers of bacon (not crispy) stacked on chicken (very dry), topped with lettuce and tomato. The best thing on my plate was the fry sauce. And yes, you will be full.
My final verdict: you can find better food for a better price elsewhere. My diner adventures continue and I shall keep everyone updated.
Here's to one less person trying dry chicken because I've already done that for you.

I have probably driven or transited past Lucy's Eastside Diner many hundreds of times and I can not believe I have never been here previously. Read a few recent reviews and as had a craving for a burger, off to Lucy's we headed. Love the space and the music...50's style diner with 50's music. And we came for the burger combo which included fries and a mikshake for $15...yeah crazy price. Plenty of options for the 'shakes and I opted for the chocolate. The shakes were before us in minutes and the burger and fries shortly after...great service. I enjoy the burger, fries and the milkshake....I was soooo full after finishing the 'shake.
I commented on this to our server who mentioned Uncle Grants Eating Challenge: 6 burger patties, 6 slices of cheese, 12 pieces of bacon with pulled pork built on two grilled cheese sandwiches served with mac'n cheese and milkshake. Finish in 20 minutes and its free. And our server stated each day someone attempts this feat....crazy. Glad I was not there to witness but would want to see the final product.
It was a very positive food experience and happy to recommend Lucy's Eastside Diner.
PS. And its open 24 hrs a day.Helpful 12Thanks 0Love this 11Oh no 0
