If you want a stereotypical breakfast counter ("greasy spoon) meal, you can't beat this. It's not healthy; but it's good and there's lots of it. The prices are reasonable and the service was good and friendly. The staff in the diner work hard. You might get tired watching them work. I'll return for more of the hand made (grated in... more

Gary, Chris and the boys keep slinging super-tasty, low-brow grub. Best if you are open minded about decor (worn diner furniture, photos from the '70s), space (about 15 stools at counter plus 5-6 tables), and finish (a bit grungy and rough around the edges, including bathrooms). That said, the breakfasts are top notch if you like things with hash browns... more

we had to wait way too long for our food, but i think we surprised them by ordering lunch on a sunday, but when we finally got it, every one of our sandwiches was great. good food, but, like almost anywhere in Durango, don't try to rush thru your meals more

Great, diner-type food. Beware of huge portions! You can easily share your entree with a partner and still take some home! Only had breakfast so can't comment on other meals. The chile on my huevos rancheros was a little too mild for my taste, but this was Colorado, not NM! Crowded but COZY! more

It an old diner, kind of a hole in the wall, but the food is wonderful. I could eat breakfast there everyday of the week. It's true Durango and a must go see. Eat a big breakfast there and you will be happy for the rest of the day. more

Stopped in the Diner for breakfast and ordered the pancakes. I should have read the menu clearer because the chef put 2 plate-sized hotcakes infront of me. It was too much food but very very delicious! And an excellent base for the long flight home. Staff was great and the premises was very clean. Prices were very reasonable. Can't wait... more

This establishment would be classified under the classic "Hole in the Wall" style of dining. A truly rustic Old West diner! My wife & I travel to Durango regularly for the great skiing, & we always make a point to stop by & have breakfast at the Durango Diner. The selection's are huge to say the least, & I think... more
