Stargate Diner

Not the greatest diner in the world, but by far not even close to the worst!I recently stopped by for lunch. Plenty of parking can be found on their private lot. There was plenty of seating available and my server was nice. My order was simple two eggs, bacon and potatoes with rye toast. The menu was huge and I was tempted to go with one of their "porker" sandwiches, but it seemed like too much food, so maybe on another visit. I think the menu is the key here, it's massive on all fronts: the breakfast side, sandwich, salad and entrees. Whether the quantity matches the quality is the big question, but you could literally eat something different for a couple of months straight! While I was waiting for my food I took a look around. The inside looks like it was updated in the last ten or so years, but they have or had some ceiling leaks. Gotta replace those tiles guys! Other than that everything seemed to be pretty typical of a diner. They have a small bar seating area when you come in, a small dining area against the front window and then a main dining area consisting of booths and tables. They had a TV in the main dining area with the news at noon on.Food came out pretty quick and everything was just fine. They gave a generous portion of bacon. I'd return if I'm in the area.

Nice quaint 24hr diner in the Ridley Park area. Service was quick and friendly, food was hot, and prices were reasonable.

I had an amazing western omelette with home fries and rye toast. I also had a hot chocolate that was very sweet but delicious!! This is my favorite local diner!

Whoooooo!!!!!!This is a local GEM! I choose to eat here at 1pm on Christmas day 2023 for the FIRST TIME Ever in Ridley Park, Pa. I was PLEASANTLY SURPRISED! for a local small diner the food was absolutely amazing! When I walked in it was packed with people and breakfast was being served all around,along with other dishes. I ordered the Grilled Chicken Greek salad with oil n vinegar dressing. The portion was amazingly huge, enough for 2 . The grilled chicken was fresh and seasoned just right, not bland not overly seasoned but perfect! I also ordered the Meatloaf and double mashed with gravy. HOLD ON...STOP...this meal surpasses your expectations! The meatloaf was as if I made it in my own kitchen! It was the perfect blend of meats flavor and seasonings.The mashed potatoes are actually homemade and delicious as well! The atmosphere doesn't have ambiance . The prices are fair! The staff is professional and friendly. The owner greets you at the entrance as you wait to be seated with a friendly smile. MUST TRY! You will not be disappointed!

I really appreciated the super sweet and attentive server #53. Very clean and pleasant diner. My food was filling and hit the spot. It was a welcome respite after driving through Philly streets.

We have not been here since 2020 & this was our first time back since. If anyone is lazy & wants breakfast locally, I would suggest coming here to Stargate Diner.My husband ordered French toast, eggs over easy, scrapple with a side of hash & bacon. The French toast were nice crispy thick slices. Bacon was also nice & crispy. I could not help myself. I had to steal a slice of French toast, it was eyeing me the whole time. I ordered the biscuit sausage & gravy with hash. Biscuit was moist & the gravy was creamy. I could not finish my dish, husband had to help.We were satisfied, will for sure be back regularly.

Coming here for 5 years and for some reason I checked the reviews for Stargate today. I was surprised that I saw a couple of Negative reviews.Come on people this is a suburban Diner not a five star Philly dining destination. It should be reviewed like a hometown diner. Consistently, the service is good, the place is clean and the food is good. I would also add that there is plenty of offstreet parking and as it's conveniently located on Chester Pike, just a stone's throw away from interstate 95, It's a good place to try if you're just looking for some casual food at very reasonable prices in a pleasant atmosphere. For commuters it is literally down the steps from the train stationToday's meal: The BB (Baltimore Beau) had a Fried flounder sandwich and absolutely loved it. He said that the flounder was very fresh and the breading was light. I who am not a fan of fried or breaded food wasn't convinced unless I took a taste. I did and I agreed with him that it tasted very fresh.I had the Santa Fe salad. I was given the option to have it delivered as made or to have it chopped. I am so glad I picked the chopped option. My deep dish of salad greens was chopped in such a fashion that they were nicely bite-size and the Santa Fe seasoned chicken on top was plentiful. I ate a third of it and when full I brought leftovers home. At Stargate you'll be assured that portion sizes are generous. As for staff it always seems to be staffed by somebody in charge and it shows. The wait staff are pleasant, quick and accurate in delivery of items ordered. The boyfriend remarked that the place looked like it had recently been redone but I told him that it's been a few years and that it probably looks so good because they keep it so clean. Seating is also very comfortable. If you're in the middle of Delaware County and looking for a place to eat in a casual, relaxed atmosphere Stargate fits the bill

This was a poor experience. First impressions were the place is filthy, all the employees I saw had low standards in personal hygiene, and they conducted themselves unprofessionally. The spinach and feta omelette was unsavory. The rye toast was the best thing I had :/. Since the waitress was gave me minimal service and I had to call her over when I needed something, I gave her the minimal 15% tip. The cashier gave me a hard time about it! He was a strange cat. The only good thing about this place was the convenient 24/7 hours and proximity to the airport. Oh and the prices were high. I ended up going to the Dennys down the road a little closer to the airport and had a much better experience.

Food was good, came out fast. Service was ok, waitress was nice but forgot creamer for coffee and butter for pancakes. They were packed and a bit of a wait for a seat but overall they were good.

The diner is very clean. They have staff working to make sure things look clean and neat. The waitress and hostess were pleasant. I got a filet of flounder meal with mashed potatoes and gravy, broccoli and French onion soup. The flounder was seasoned well and the broccoli was steamed well and tasted great with melted butter.Mashed potatoes needed a little more seasoning but it tasted good with the brown gravy. The French onion soup was very good. I got dessert and the carrot cake was awesome. Even though I was getting full I kept eating the cake. This was my second time eating there and this was a eating pleasure.
