Coney Island Lunch Room

A legendary classic in Grand Island that generations of families here have enjoyed. Old diner feel to this day.

Came into Coney Island Lunch Room around 9:00 on a Saturday morning. You could tell that the gentlemen sitting at the counter with the coffee and the newspaper were regulars and I bet I could find them there most Saturday mornings. Alas, we were tourists just passing through here for breakfast which would include a hot dog (naturally). I sheepishly asked our server if their hot dogs were available that early. Laughingly, she assured me they were. We ordered fried eggs, toast, bacon and I got a hot dog with chili and mustard. I watched as the hot dog was quickly thrown together, all of the ingredients in the front of the shop and ready to serve. The hot dog was good. Very soft bun with tasty flavor with a depth of flavor that I really liked. I enjoyed the rest of breakfast too. Eggs cooked just right. Bacon had a soft chew that I actually like but I think others might want it a big crispier. Service was great especially on a busy morning as they were getting ready for their annual hot dog eating contest a few hours after we visited.

Being from a town where Coney Island hot dogs are a staple, I stumbled upon this spot while walking into town and going antique shopping. I decided to give it a shot and see. Though there are similarities in technique, the execution is different than what I am used to. This spot uses yellow mustard rather than spicy brown mustard. Also the onions are more diced than the thinly chopped I am used to. The sauces seemed the same as usual - and their chocolate shake was goodPlace is a hole in the wall (not a bad thing), and the guy who runs it was talkative and hospitable. I liked it overall. Would come back- if, I ever were to come back.

5 Stars for having real potato french fries, fresh made. And they are real good today. Also a strawberry malt and chocolate milkshake. Third generation, George, here doing it right.

No thank youNo ice no good Horrible hot dog and bland chili.No refills it's old and dirty looking for ambience but it doesn't work for me

This place is fantastic!!!! I go with my father every time I'm in Grand Island! The very best chocolate malts!!!!

Extremely small old time cafe! Burgers and shakes were great! The carney sauce on my hot dog could have had some more spice to it! Melissa our waitress was great! Funny and very friendly! Will visit again!

Classic food, great people. No matter what I order it's always good. My family has been eating here since it opened and still does.

I have visited Coney Island since 1978. I have always ordered 2 Coney Island dogs with everything, and I share the delicious fries with my wife. My wife orders a Coney Island dog with everything too. I have seen Coney's hamburger in photos and by people's comments. The next time we visit Coney Island, I want to try the hamburger, and of course I want their homemade fries.

Classic diner atmosphere. Great food at reasonable prices. If you're craving a chili dog, this is the place to go. Very well known establishment amongst locals.
