"Quick seating on a weekday for breakfast but this place was packed! Food was good but nothing special. Overrated! Fully loaded potatoes wete kind of dry and flavorless. Waffle was okay. Service was good. This restaurant offers outdoor seating. Parking isscarce and difficult to find. Street parking in a neighborhood nearby is an option, too."
Absolutely TERRIBLE experience today. Upon entering the restaurant, the table and seat was absolutely filthy. I ordered strawberry French toast and I was given plain French toast. It took the waiter a very long time to correct this. Once I told her I wanted strawberry French toast and that my potatoes were burnt, she took my plate away and came back with another plate topped with hot slimy cherries. I told her I do not like cherries and I want strawberry French toast for the 3rd time. She said they were out of strawberries and they only have cherry flavor in stock for Valentine's Day. So then waiter gave me a new order of French toast and did not give me any syrup this time. Not to mention t...
Wow! I had originally planned to dine at First Watch, but my husband suggested we try a local place instead, so we ended up at Trip’s Diner. I was thoroughly impressed with everything—the food, the varied menu, and the friendly staff. Mrs. Jenny was especially wonderful! We couldn’t have chosen a better spot. We enjoyed the Chicken Biscuits with Home Fries, Traditional Eggs Benedict, Sausage Biscuits with Gravy, Bacon, French Toast, and my favorite by far was the Cheese Grits! I’d never tried them before, and now they’ve set a new benchmark for me. This will definitely be one of our family’s top five restaurants in St. Pete!
WOW!!! So I made reservations at First Watch, but hubby changed it up and said ?let?s try out a local place?, so he found Trips Diner. Beyond impressed with the food, menu variety, staff, Ms. Jenny was wonderful etc. Could not have been a better choice.Chicken Biscuits/Home-fries, Eggs Benedict Traditional, Sausage Biscuits/Gravy, Bacon, French Toast and the BEST in my opinionwere the CHEESE GRITS!!! Never had them before and now the bar has been set high. Will definitely be one of our families top 5restaurants here in St. Pete.
We went to Trip's Diner on Monday for brunch and got a table right away. The waitress was excellent—friendly and quick with the service. I had the shrimp and grits along with French toast. My friend ordered the chicken and waffle. The shrimp and grits were tasty; I think they would have been even better if the cheese had been melted into the dish, but the flavor was still great. The French toast was also very good. As for the chicken and waffle, the chicken was well-prepared, and the waffle was fluffy and delicious.

Nice, clean, bright spot on a very busy street close to downtown St Petersburg. The service was above average, the food was good and the prices were competitive. The place is well kept and you can appreciate the neighborhood support. Comfortable parking behind and around. I had the two egg platter with sausage. Everything was delicious but the home fries were a bit crunchy for my taste. Good coffee, busy place... I think my server was fairly new but did the job with a smile. I'd definitely come back!
Went for brunch on a Monday. We got seated right away. The waitress was great. Service was prompt, and friendly. I got the shrimp and grits with a side of French toast. My friend got the chicken and waffles. The shrimp and grits were good. I think Iwould?ve enjoyed the dish even more if the cheese was melted into the grits. Nevertheless, it had good flavors. The French toastwere also very good. Chicken and waffles: the chicken was okay, but the waffle was fluffy and delicious.
I’m staying at The Empress Motel just a few blocks away and walked here in minutes. As soon as I walked in, I was warmly welcomed and told to sit wherever I liked. I always get excited at diner-style restaurants that remind me of my grandmother’s cooking. The service was quick from ordering to getting my food, and the staff were incredibly friendly. Marcie was wonderful and made me feel right at home. Love you all—thank you for everything you do!

Great Breakfast spot. Parking is pretty annoying and there?s always a wait, but that just shows it?s worth going. Quick breakfast with great potions. The Pancakes are HUGE! Not expensive, decent prices. They have mimosas but no Bloody Mary?s. Iwould say about half the staff is friendly, the other half just doesn?t seems to care or show much personality.
