Friendly diner vibesI took my son here for a fun treat and we had a great time. The restaurant is an old fashioned diner with counter stools and booths. Lots of 50s decor from cars to Betty boop. The menu has a large selection of breakfast and lunch options. Plus a kids menu. My son ordered the kids French toast and sausage. It was a huge portion. I had the chicken Philly and it was overflowing with food. The service was the best. Everyone was friendly.

Nice and friendly! Prices very good as I have just moved here from Chicagoland! Prices there are out of control. Food is done right, especially breakfast. They have SOS! Coffee cup kept full.

Did someone say "diner?" I was looking for a cozy little breakfast spot on my way to Avon area. Of course Yelp lead me to Nancy's. From the time we parked I could tell we picked a great spot for breakfast.We were seated immediately, and there were several guests inside the restaurant. Service was quick and friendly. Some featured items are they make their own fresh bread. And I will say it was fantastic. I chose one of their breakfast skillets that the waitress recommended and it was phenomenal. My wife had a pancake that was bigger than 12 inches diameter. Also scrambled eggs and crispy bacon. Everything was absolutely wonderful.The decor is old school diner with photos of old cars, James Dean, and other items from that era. I would highly recommend and I will be back when I'm in this area.

Tucked away in a sleepy corner of Ohio -- a few miles from Oberlin College -- is Nancy's Diner. Nancy and her husband bought the diner decades ago. Nancy, now in her 80's, still supervises the kitchen every day. The diner, adorned with Betty Boop memorabilia, is a place where locals serve locals. Servers and patrons exchange old stories and current gossip. Our waitress radiated local charm. That and an 80-year-old owner working the kitchen gets you to 4 stars. The menu is limited - but what's on there is very good. Apps are fun and tasty (mozzarella sticks are really good) and burgers are their specialty. But, in reality, you're here for reasons beyond the food.

Cute restaurant that looks like am old fashioned diner! Service was great. Ordered breakfast. The pancakes are HUGE. Order 1 or share! They don't have a lot of flavor. I had a skillet with sausage. Basic bland food, but I would go there again.

everything was so good! the food you can tell is actually homemade and that there is effort put towards the meal you're given. the inside is super cute and the staff is of course friendly as well!! i definitely will be coming again. my nana got the meatloaf dinner with mashed potatoes and green beans. the green beans were amazingggg and remind me of my aunties. i got the big dig burger with curly fries. the burger is huge, i could barley open my mouth wide enough to bite it. i also got ranch for the fries and their ranch is homemade and my favorite kind!

Oh Nancy. I want to like you better, but...I stopped in for the 2019 Lorain County Burger Battle. Last year I loved their pot roast burger and actually got it three times. This year just okay. Honestly every place I went to for the Burger Battle was a let down. Lorain restaurants be dropping the ball and causing me to lose my desire to drive over and support them. My problem with Nancy is that everyone was selling their burger for $9, except for them. They were selling it for $9.99. The most expensive sandwich on their menu. Now look at the menu, normally you get your choice of side with a burger, but for this special I had to pay $1.50 more for a side of corn. Just felt nickel and dimed compared to what they serve normally on their menu. Then my older waitress was clearly overwhelmed with her section and a bit spacey. Long wait times. Like I was told 30 minutes to cook my burger patty, not because they were busy but because the patty was so thick?The toast the burger came out on could have used some garlic butter, it was just dry with herbs. In fact the whole sandwich was dry and I had to add extra sides of red sauce to it. This sandwich would have been great if they cut down on the meat, added more sauce to begin with, and added onions and green peppers, (more gooey cheese is never a bad thing either). I will give Nancy another try because for what they are - simple comfort food/your grandparents diner (think liver and onions on the menu), it's not bad at all. Just come patient with a side of grace, and you might need to tweak your food a bit, but you'll be full and mostly satisfied. I'm leaning on the cantankerous side today so go to Nancy's and form your own opinion.

This little place is a fantastic restaurant for breakfast, lunch or dinner. I love the Betty Boop and old car ambiance plus the food is amazing. All homemade just like your mother made, i had their Liver and Onions and I swear my mother made it, it was just the same way she did it. No instant potatoes everything is fresh even homemade bread. If you're hungry and looking for something special and fresh and that you'll remember and tell your friends and I don't care if it's breakfast, lunch or dinner you won't be disappointed in eating at Nancy's Main Street Dinner. The food the service and the prices will make you a happy camper. Honestly I can't speak highly enough about this place and if I could give it a 10 I would. Thank you Nancy's Dinner for a wonderful experience and I will be back soon.
