Courtesy Diner

Staff is always awesome. Steak is always cooked to my expectations. Overall the best breakfast spot in the Lou! South Sider here lol.

This place is PHENOMENAL. Everything about it impressed me. The way the staff worked together and communicated is definitely displayed in their customer service. The food was served so hot that I couldn’t even eat it at first. I wish we had one of these close to why I live. I would eat there often.

This diner is really a local gem hidden on Hampton. Always clean and staff is always friendly and welcoming. The food is so reasonably priced too. Food is hot and delicious, my choice was the Hoosier. The gravy was good with real sausage and hot, with eggs over easy and hash browns along with Toast. Really enjoyed my choice and would recommend this diner to all, as there are not many goid diners left in our communities. Make sure you support the locally-owned businesses to keep them in our communities.

We have been frequent customers of the Courtesy Diner for many many years. The best "hole-in-the-wall" diner in St. Louis, IMHO. Our go-to one was on S. Kingshighway, but that one has since closed. Over the years, my wife and I have tried pretty much all that they have to offer on the menu. My favorite has always been the Slinger. Such a strange combination of flavors, but so tasty! It'll definitely fill you up. Their burgers, Chili Mac, regular breakfast items, everything is just amazing! The staff is always friendly and accommodating. The restaurant is clean (unless during a rush. Then the floor can get a bit messy. They're quick to come in with a sweep after a table leaves, though. On top of it!) Though we no longer live in STL, this restaurant is a must when we are in town. The prices are very reasonable and the portion sizes are great. Can't wait to go back and devour another slinger. Side note: Cash Only... but they do have an ATM on site.

Just picked this place while in town visiting. Was very impressed. My kinda place.

Courtesy Diner is only a few minutes from the zoo and park, easy to get to. Parking here is in front and fine, although when it gets packed inside it can be tough to park. Inside they have probably a dozen tables along with a few counter top seats. Their menu isn't massive but pricing is decent for portion size. The food is good, both breakfast and lunch items, including the western BBQ burger. The staff are so nice, but when they get busy it can take a bit to get food since it's cooked fresh, so be patient. Overall it's a great place to eat, and it's cash only so be prepared (although they have an ATM still).
