Bluebonnet Diner

Another reason to dislike “progress.” The more I visit these neighborhood diners, the more irritated I become at how they are disappearing from my home town. I loved this place. The waitress was friendly and smiling. That small town hospitality that is missing from cities like Boston, Philadelphia and New York. I even cracked a little joke to the owner and we had a good little chuckle.

Great Diner in Northampton! Bit of a wait for a table and for food to come out but the staff were very upfront about the times and well worth the wait. Food was great, poached eggs done to perfection and the raspberry swirl pancakes had the great combo of fluffy interior and just a little bit of crispiness on the outside.

Soooooo much bigger than I ever thought. I have lived in the same town for 35 years and have never ate here until now. Whatttt? Crazy, I know... so worth it. It's a fun, down-home, Happy Days diner feel and look. It's roomy, bright, with a great atmosphere. I'm definitely going back. If you can't find something to order on their menu, then you must not read?! 😁🤣🤣

A diner in the front and a party in the back. You can choose to sit in the actual original Worcester Diner with (very) upright wooden booths and chromed counter stools or in the main dining room, with tables, booths, and many many persons who enjoy a good fruit cup. There's the bar room, which is convenient if you want to watch someone make your drink, and also has a TV, in case you like to watch Bar Rescue while you trust that the Bluebonnet's bar back and kitchen will never appear on that program. The whole place has a low-key railroad theme. There's a big, very basic function hall attached too. That's the party part. The menu is broad and features all the usual diner fare. The food we had was good, and we enjoyed the banter among staff and regulars as we ate. We did not have cocktails, since we were there for breakfast and lunch. The wait staff are perfect for a diner; attentive, friendly and range from hometown young women and guys who've grown up working there to a batch of blondes who have been serving up eggs and club sandwiches for decades. They probably know what you're going to order when hey see you walk through the door. My only cavil is the chilly the air conditioning in the dining room - brrr. But, Mom always warned us to take a sweater! We recommended the Bluebonnet.
