Whistle Stop Diner

Just went there for a Sunday brunch and loved it. Since it is my hubby's birthday, we both ordered Bloody Mary :)My hubby ordered Cali Benny (special) and I The Moonie featuring Zingerman's bread. Everything was great. We liked the side Parmesan grits. That was unique!We will definitely go back there again.

This place is so good. Every weekend morning there is a line out the door. Went here the morning of Black Friday and at 11am a line started to form going out onto the sidewalk.There are about 30 tables available but the service is so fast you're in and out in 30 minutes at most. A creative and lengthy menu with some really good breakfast foods.Good for a breakfast date or brunch with friends.

I had the absolute best time having brunch at Whistle Stop! We came here on a Sunday and got seated within about 15 minutes! The atmosphere is warm and bright with both indoor and outdoor seating options. I ordered the Ole skillet, which was a great mix of flavors and textures. I had my eggs sunny side up and got turkey sausage instead of the regular sausage. Potatoes were cooked perfectly and cheese was nicely distributed throughout the warm, sizzling skillet. It came with toast and house made jam. I highly recommend picking their strawberry jam. I loved the skillet but the star of brunch had to be the Fruity Pebbles pancakes. Fluffy and colorful, these pancakes were not only a feast for the eyes but also a deliciously sweet treat. The yellow icing on top was perfect - I just wish it had even more of it because it was that good! Overall, this brunch was a fantastic experience and I can't wait to come back!

My friends in the area highly recommended this place as they basically go every week or so! The wait wasn't too bad, but it was a busy Sunday. I ended up ordering the Charlie's Skillet and it was delicious! It doesn't look that pretty, but it was super hearty and the gravy was the perfect touch. I would definitely come back when I'm in the area again.

I grew up in Birmingham and remember the old Whistle Stop in the "Rail District" from my high school days. The newly remodeled restaurant is very welcoming. Open and airy. I met my sister here for breakfast. We are both in town from out of state for our mother's 90th birthday celebration. It was a Monday morning and only a few patrons were there, but gradually the tables around us seemed to be occupied. I ordered their cinnamon roll half order. Could not resist since it was stated their cinnamon rolls are homemade. Even a half order was more than enough for me and I took two pieces to go for breakfast the next day. My sister had a spinach and cheese omelette which she liked. The side potatoes were crispy. Overall, it was much more enjoyable to come to an independently owned historic place rather than a chain.

Awesome service and great food! This is a rather small restaurant so it can get full really quick. I had a burger with bacon and avocado, it just didn't add any "wow" factor to me. I am definitely going to return because I saw some other dishes I'd like to taste. If you like to feel like you're at home, this is the place.

I arrived around 11 AM. I only had to wait for about 15 minutes. The service was good! The hostess was very friendly!I wouldn't say the food is anything amazing. Pretty average, but not at all bad. I definitely think it is overpriced compared to other places in the area. I got the Amtrak sandwich. My friends got the western omelette and the breakfast burrito. Portions are definitely small for the price.

Food, service, ambiance. Great little diner in a nice city.Omelettes are good, so is the fresh orange juice

Prices over here are pretty expensive, but less than downtown. Plus, they don't force a mandatory 20% like a bunch of other restaurants downtown do. The high prices are more product of Washington DC politics than management but still, one person having breakfast with just water came out to about $25, Including tip. Warning: They charge extra here if you use a credit card but there's nothing about that on the menu.

Food was AWESOME. Cinnamon roll pancakes- perfect. Sweet and savoryClub -really goodI really want to go back soon !!!
