Came back home after 20 some years for Labor Day weekend and this was my first choice for breakfast. Great food, absolutely the best family atmosphere. It hasnt changed since I brought my wife here 25 years ago
Great service, great value! My kids loved the chocolate chip pancakes and the french toast. I enjoyed their steak and eggs. Coffee was excellent as well. Next time we are in town we will definitely be back 👌🏽
Our usual monday eatery. Friendly owners and servers. Good homemade food.
This is the absolute best diner over ever been too, and I’m a truck driver so I’ve been to a lot!! The staff treat you like family, the line cook is hilarious and hun and his father run the place. The food is amazing and always made quickly and the prices are absolutely amazing!!! This place has become a near daily part of our day with my girlfriend and I. If you havnt been here, go, you won’t regret it.
Love this place! A classic diner. Family run. Super busy yet food still comes out efficiently. Eggs are cooked the way you want them, and the hash is crispy!
Great food, excellent prices.
I would have given 5 stars and I never give many places 5 stars unless they deserve it. But this was my 1st visit and unfortunately we couldnt rat inside but the food was better than any diner Ive been to in my hometown and made well. I love the old-school look and the mom and pop feel! With so many places being huge corprate owners Id rather go to any mom and pop shop anyway its always better quality and these folks seem to take the time to make it properly! Keep up the great work and hopefully next time through Ill be able to sit in and eat!
Dannys is a fantastic dinner with excellent food. The service is quick and attentive even when busy and there is never a long wait. Their breakfast menu is especially good but I have yet to have an unsatisfying meal whatever I order. Highly recommend if you want something good that is authentic.
Old school diner with excellent service and great food
One of the last real diners in the area. Great food and a perfect diner atmosphere. Whats not to love?
After tip 26$ breakfast for two.Not feeling it.
Loved the look, the food, however, was terrible. My son had a juicy pork sandwich with mashed potatoes and gravy... The pork was hard, even though it was covered in gravy. I had open ribeye and fries. It had more fat than meat and was rubber! I finally got a piece cut and it literally flew across the table, it was laying on 2pcs of almost burnt toast that had to be microwaved because it was also difficult to cut. We both had the cole slaw .. you dont have to chew it, with the exception of the pineapple bits, because its completely ground. And yes, I did say pineapple! The waitress is VERY nice but wears her mask under her chin and her dirty fingernails definitely do not make the food any more appealing. $25, with tip, was NOT worth the experience... But you could tell the regulars loved the place!!
I have a great memory coming here with my my yougest son( also named Danny) years ago; then my sweetheart of 15 years BD. The breakfasts are off the hook! that was my favorite. I also had lunch and dinner there too. I love the food;very very good. I will be coming here for years more!
My group stopped in for a quick bite. The restaurant is small and cant accommodate large groups together. Typical menu for a diner with specials posted on the board. It can fill out quickly. It is right off the road and easily located with a parking structure. Food quality and portion was good.
Economically viable. Good food as well. Usually the wait is less that 5 min from ordering. Coffee is free. I havent been to a better place for breakfast (based on value for money principle). I eat here almost everyday. They accept credit and debit card. Every time they get my order right. Will definitely suggest it to anyone for break fast. Usually crowded. Service is pretty quick. All their daily specials are cheap. The chef knows how to perfectly scramble the eggs. Home fries could sometimes be a little burnt. But that happens rarely.
I had the meatlovers omelette with rye toast and home fries. Omelette and toast was fantastic but home fries were mushy. My wife had French toast, bacon and home fries. French toast and bacon were fantastic but home fries mushy too. Stafr was friendly and place was clean. If you afraid of covid you might want to stay away waitresses wear their masks around their neck. First restaurant that I have gone to during covid rules that doesnt follow.
Amazing service, delicious food, and homey vibes. What else can you ask for? Loved it and cant wait to go back!
I have been going for my entire life every chance I get it is absolutely the best little dinner in the world if you get a chance I promise the atmosphere and definitely the home style of cooking will impress you
Just ate lunch here and everything was fantastic! The service was great as well as the food! Everything I except from a diner!
Just great food for fair price
Love the food. Good old fashioned diner. Small but family friendly. Cant beat the food or prices. Home cooking. Love eating there.
A good local diner to stop and grab some decent cooked food.
Yeah, this passes the test. A respectable greasy spoon that Id recommend if youre stopping through Binghamton and need a bite. Reasonable prices, good food, healthy portions and the desired old school diner atmosphere.
Easily One of the best diners in Binghamton. Speedy and pleasant service with a smile. Great food. Great atmosphere. Daily specials and regular menu items. Desserts are out of this world. I recommend the cheesecake.
Mhmm! 50s vibes with great, cheap food!
Good Food but the waitress named Pam the short lady with the glasses is the unfriendliest person I have seen ever(i think she is burnt out for working here for many years, she needs to quit now its about time). This is my 4th time here but every time she is nasty. Will never greet and thank. I think the reviewer before me is talking about her. I went today for breakfast and Marissa was my waitress. She is very nice and smiling and seems friendly. On the other hand, breakfast here is always good :)
First off, very cute location. Food is basic, but inexpensive and enjoyable. Theyve definitely got the homefries right, and they always put butter and powdered sugar on the pancakes. Would highly recommend to anyone in Binghamton.
A perennial West Side favorite, and its easy to understand why. Dannys is a classic greasy spoon. Simple menu, solid service, and very reasonable prices. You can easily have breakfast here for $10, tax and tip included. Sometimes crowded, especially on Sunday mornings, but you can usually find a seat.
Best breakfast in town by far. Fresh, hot, delicious. Like a time warp where your small town diner ended up here. BtW I work in a restaurant and am always impressed because place is SPOTLESS.
Been there a bunch of times ! Great little stainless steel , many portion sizes to chose from ! Meal , sandwich , and much more ! The staff is great ,friendly ! Landmark in town . I never go back to a place where I have a bad experience, again Ive been there more than I can count !
Always makes me feel like its home for me.
I have been driving past Danny for years on the was to my moms house. I missed out. I should have know it was great, due to the parade of ministers and church elders that drop in all morning. Danny is a great line cook. Perfect eggs, fluffy pancakes, everything turned right on time. A master at work!
On a quick trip from connecticut, my girlfriend and i visited this diner for some food. the waitress was incredibly friendly, and the decor was so nice! if you want some delicious food in a classic american diner, this is definitely a place to visit.
Decent food for a dinner. The service was fine, but the cleanliness and serving standards were not so hot. Everyone was friendly and quick.
It is a joy to be served by the prompt, friendly, and always smiling staff, and the food is exactly what you would expect, with prices far less. They cook up your standard diner grub, with a few exceptional items like their rare, perfectly creamy sweet potato pie. Win.The feel inside Dannys is pure 1970s diner, with Danny cooking up orders behind a counter lined with mostly older gentlemen, each and every one of who seem to know Danny and the waiters with the familiarity of good friends. I do not know much about any other shift, but the morning crowd is ideal.If you are looking for a solid diner in Bing, Dannys is the spot.
This is my favorite diner around and there’s a lot of diners around. You should go here and buy a lot of food because it’s all amazing
I have been at Dannys twice now since Ive been in Binghamton for 2 years. Its the second diner Ive been to in Broome county. My fiance and I went there for a little date together and the waitress was exactly that she brought the food and left and brought the check. There was no sincere feeling from her. Didnt ask if we needed anything during the time we were there. Didnt ask us if we wanted mode. Coffee or anything else possible on the menu. Brought the check and didnt even say thank you. The waitress didnt state her name and wasnt friendly. I got the feeling from her as she just wanted us to leave immediately brought the check 2 minutes after bringing our food. Didnt welcome/greet us or say thank you for coming and have a nice day which is what comes with being in a diner restaurant. I was a waitress at one point before having children. Customers like when the waitress or waitors make sure customers have anything and everything they may want. They didnt provide napkins for hand/face use. The food was not horrible but Ive most definitely had better. I was pretty upset that it was exactly the same the second time I visited there. The gossip talked trashing people in the Broome County area is just sad. I liked to be welcomed in a place that is suppose to be very welcoming for customer satisfaction. I am paying for it and then to leave a tips for a waitress that didnt even make sure everything was taken care of. She didnt ask how our food was she took our order walked away brought our food walked away brought our check. Walked away. That was the most disrespectful customer services Ive ever had.
Love Dannys for a quick, inexpensive and yummy breakfast. I appreciate that I can call ahead and get my food to go. Always friendly service.
Classic diner. Ive only been for breakfast, but it is always tasty, and cooked to order. Wait staff is attentive and friendly.
We had a great time here, the food was great and super reasonably priced, and the service was amazing! Will definitely be coming here again!
Some food is over the top delicious and some isnt so good. Some prices are fair and other times I feel it was a waste of money. I now will only order what I know is good.
Nice old school American diner, had a breakfast there.
Great Family Restaurant with delicious food and welcoming service. My favorite has to be the Homemade Chicken and Biscuits on Thursday! Must try, youll love it!
Greetings, I had the homemade chicken potpie and I thought it was wonderful. I would order it again. Dan Jr was very nice as was my waitress. My plans are to return again.
Local run diner, at home feel, classic style appeal. Specials daily, close early on weekends. Renovated parking lot. Cheap meals, excellent breakfast, amazing lunch.
Nice place. Reasonable prices. Typical diner food. It would be 5 stars but lettuce and tomato doesnt come with a burger
Dannys is an excellent dinner. The food is delicious, the service is friendly, and the vibe is all-American diner 100%. The prices low and you have the option to at with a credit card.
Dannys diner is a quaint spot in the middle of beautiful main St! Surrounded by plenty of other places to eat, Dannys diner stands out for its friendly staff, and delicious (and affordable!) Food!! Eggs benedict only served Sunday is a staple!! Definitely stop buy if youre in the area
The food was great but our meal was interrupted by the strong smell of cigarette smoke that Im thinking could have come from an employee. If you cannot handle smoke very well like me, be prepared for this possibility.
Awesome foodGreat pricesOld fashion diner with a old fashion staff. Cook works off an old open grill and the food cant be beat. Got that down home taste.
The omelet was fantastic and coffee was excellent. Also the waitress was so sweet definitely going back
Small little place, very quality classic diner food at great prices. Love the way it looks on the inside, nice atmosphere
Great food, great portions, great service, my favorite diner around I recommend this place to anybody who’s lookin for a great breakfast lunch dinner.
This place is the best diner in the area! The food is amazing, never had a bad experience! The price is cheap for the quality of the food!
The food at this dinner is spectacular. I have never had to wait to be seated the food comes out very quickly. Everything is cheap, to boot. Highly recommend.

Ive been going to Dannys for almost 20 years now. Starting going at about 5 yrs. Old with my grandfather love Danny and his mom and son are great to be around.and always great food
The Ruben sandwich is the best! I dont go anywhere else for it because no one does it better than Dannys. Best in the triple cities... Service is always friendly.
Awsome food by the chef whos allways on point, and Sasha is the best waitress ever!!
Got the fish and mac. I didnt realize it came on a bun, but when I got it, it was just fish and 1 pickle. No lettuce or tomato. Fish was less moist than most.
Very small spot but had the friendliest staff and good food. I recommend stopping here.
Im always pleased with my experience at Dannys, good food in large portions, a fun atmosphere, and a great crew that works hard to make sure you enjoy your meal!

Cheap, fast, and always great. This area has a lot of diners and this one is always a good choice. Also, they take credit.
Step back in time to when a diner was a diner. Hot coffee, breakfast and lunch prepared in front of you while you sit at the counter or get table service. Very good prices.

2021-07-22The food was absolutely delicious, and the portions are big so you wont leave hungry. I love that the home fries have onions! So yummy.However the service was really slow. Keep in mind that it was at no fault of the waitress who was clearly doing the best she could, but the place was packed and she was the only server there.

2022-06-29Danny’s is a local, family friendly, and classic New York diner. The building looks like it might be a renovated trolley car with a 1950’s feel to it. They have tables, booths, and the traditional lunch counter. They have all-day breakfast and a lunch/dinner menu too. The food is awesome and the short-order cook makes everything up perfectly. They take both cash and cards without issue. They also have the old style candy machines that take quarters and also keep lollipops under the counter for the little-little kids.
Review №3
2022-04-23Two stars since I remember them being okay. Wanted to try them again but they were ridiculously packed, had restrictive seating options (all tables should be first come first serve), and I didnt feel like being packed into the front bar like sardines with everyone else with no space or privacy. Not sure Ill be back. Took my business to The Spot - far roomier there.

2021-02-27Old school diner with a hard working family background. The food is super cheap and very delicious. The interior is comfortable booths and legendary decor. Looking for a quick good breakfast or lunch stop in here danny is a trip!

2022-05-01Had a very tasty late breakfast, though its available at all hours. Prices are more than fair and portion size is generous, but within reason. Its a small space, but with a big heart.

2019-12-02Great old school diner with great prices! Everything on the menu was less than $10 and is only 15 minutes from Binghamton university, the staff was very attentive and the food was great, I had egg Benedict special and my daughter had the blueberry pancakes they where delicious. Go there and give them a chance you will go back like me every time I go to see my kid there.

2021-11-13I have been Patron of Dannys Diner for a very long time. The atmosphere is very pleasant. Conversations are bright and cheerful and so are the others who dine and work there. The food is great. My wife and I always say whenever we eat there, we feel like were eating with friends. Some we know and some we do not. Enjoy
Review №8
2021-12-23Had the chili dog special, which comes with fries. The dog was good; the chili on the dog was exceptional. I remarked when paying that I wished I had ordered the chili! Oh well, this gives me an excuse to stop by next time Im in Binghamton. Adding to the experience, the staff were super friendly and efficient.

2021-06-07The food was delicious and the portions were a nice size. I had the breakfast special: 2 eggs, polish sausage, home fries, toast and coffee. My wife had a large blueberry pancake and a scrambled egg with coffee. Both dishes were very tasty and the total bill was only $11.02 with the tax. The waitress and cook were both very friendly and attentive. Well be back.
