President Obama ate lunch at the Hamilton Family Diner where he tipped the waitress $100. The owner of Hamilton Family Diner took her tip money from her because he wanted to put it on his wall as a trophy. George, give the woman her tip that she rightfully earned for waiting on the President of the United States. more

We ordered the lunch special, Oven Baked Haddock. The fish was dried out it was like a hokey puck. We told the waitress and she said pick something else. My husband chose macaroni and cheese. I said that should be good. This massive bowl was filled with macaroni and a white cheese cream sauce like soup. Needless to say we... more

The usual prices, service, food, atmosphere for a diner. I've spent many evenings there with friends and see people of all ages do the same. One reviewer said you can't get hot food overnight, and you definitely can. The Late-Night Menu, when used, is especially awesome; buy one, get one dinners is always nice. I think it's only available weeknights... more

You can't excpect a lot from a diner, but in this diner I got more than what I excpected, from food to serice to food portion to eat at least in a clean place, and you can figure that out from the restrooms, and their kitchen specially if you are seating close to the kitchen door and the waitresses open... more

My family of four was in Allentown 8/15-8/17 and liked this diner so much, we ate breakfast there twice! The bill each visit was approximately $25. The food was very good, the prices were very reasonable and service was fast and friendly. The owner/manager walked around each day greeting people, asking how their meal was, etc. The restaurant was CLEAN.... more

You expect a diner to get the basics right, good real french fries, a nice soup, fresh hamburger rolls. Not today at the Ham Fam. French fries probably from a pre-made pack, every one was short and the amount was stingy. Soup had some coagulated flour wads in it, food-service flavor. Hamburger roll was hard. The pickle was a sliver.... more

This had been a favorite local dining spot in Allentown for years, but our last visit was not good. Prices are still low, but the food is mediocre to the point that it seems the staff does not really care. The Manhattan clam chowder was fair--more like potato soup; you are allowed one trip to the salad bar, but the... more
