    We always enjoy our meals at Brandywine Diner. I usually get grape leaves or a greek salad because I can't get them other places. Today, we asked "Joe" our waiter what he suggested, chipped steak, onions and mushrooms or their special "beef stew ". We got the beef stew and their chicken orzo soup along with rice pudding and ice cream. It was delicious! Definitely do yourself a favor and go there and enjoy their beef stew or Greek grape leaves.

    We were driving through the area and stopped at the Brandywine Diner for the first time. Sandwiches were great and service was just as good! The best part my sister has gluten free requirements. They offered GF bread and she was actually able to have a tuna salad sandwich! She was beyond excited!!!!! If we are ever in the area again we will definitely be stopping in. Highly recommended the Brandywine Diner! Thanks!!!

    Friendly, clean environment and bathrooms. I was looking for a good, hot meal in the area while I’m on my route trucking and found them on google. I drove 20 mins passed a few diners I saw because their food looked really good, and it was delish worth the drive and when I’m back in the area plan to visit again.

    I visited the diner for the first time. It's nicer inside than it looks on the outside. Very spacious. Everything was clean oh when i walked in the first thing that drew my eye was all the baked goods . We were there for breakfast. I got a mushroom, turkey sausage 3 egg omelette with home fries. Well fried potatoes. Anyway it was good but it needed seasoning. I had to add a lot of salt and pepper but the portion size was great. I would go back but maybe take some slap your mama seasoning with me. 11/18/24 Visited this restaurant again a little disappointed this time. The service was slow, the silverware was dirty and I ordered home fries but they came out like fried mashed potatoes. The omelette was good I ordered the special breakfast meat lovers omelette not the right name but it had lots of meat in it. The prices aren't bad but I think they can do better.

    Our family tried the Brandywine Diner for the first time today. We really enjoyed breakfast for lunch, pancakes, eggs Benedict, tuna melt, cheeseburgers, chicken tenders and a turkey panini. Great service and reasonable prices to boot.
