Dad's Diner

Super good food with friendly people. Just watch out for add-on’s and ask if it comes with entree price point because just because they give you “English muffin” as the bread option, it’s extra $ (but they don’t tell you) instead of getting the biscuit or toast. It would’ve been appreciated to be told “these bread options come with selection but if you’d like an English muffin with jam that will be an additional $” and the same with any meat options that don’t come with the entree but what they give you options for ) and DON’T get “A la carte”. Two pancakes were $17 and 3 sausages were $24. What I expected would’ve been $60 ended up being over $100(with tip). The food was all delicious, I just would’ve liked to know if it was SO much more getting things separate than just ordering another adult-sized entree to split for my kiddos (2 and 4 year olds) One of 16-19 dollars would’ve filled them both up with left-overs. Or even getting them both separate kids menu items. Since getting things “A la carte” was actually mentioned by the staff, I thought this might be more cost effective to get exactly what would be eaten. I just don’t want people to feel that I’m attacking the staff or food quality. This is just for the family that may not have a lot of extra money and just want to know that they’re making a stupid choice by ordering separately when they’re going to pay double for it.

Stopped in Anacortes for work 10/27/2023 and found this hidden gem. I got the pork belly hash with my eggs over easy and it was hands down the best breakfast meal I’ve ever had. The flavor was out of this world. I don’t normally give out reviews but credit is due where credit is deserved. Thanks to my server and the cooks for a great experience and food.

It was incredible! I bought the homemade salsa to go since I'm not a local, I live in Seattle, and I wanted to enjoy it at home. The people were very friendly and made sure I had everything I needed and checked my coffee level as well periodically. The food tasted amazing. I will definitely be coming back here when I come back for my camping trips at Deception Pass.

Dads Diner is the best breakfast place in town. Very good food, atmosphere, and service was great. Plenty of street parking. I recommend to get there early so you don’t have to wait long. The grits were very good. Loved the pull pork with my eggs and potatoes. Such a great combo. The place itself has pictures of dads on the wall. What a neat concept. Service was great. Would come back in a heartbeat to eat here again. Enjoy!

There is no better way to start your day then at Dad’s. Terrific service, wonderful food, lovely space, and if you are lucky you will have to wait so that your anticipation level increases by the minute! We waited 40 minutes to dine and it was worth every minute! Kudos to the entire staff, they run the place like clockwork and no one is forgotten! We WILL return!

I stopped in here for some breakfast and let me tell you, it’s worth the wait (if there is one). Fletcher is a great guy and I appreciated the conversation! The girls up front are definitely on it! i was seated and served quickly. The food was also amazing, the portions are pretty big FYI. Thanks again!
