Shirley's Diner
I have never been disappointed eating here. This place was packed at 10:15 today. I had the Chicken Fried Steak, with hash browns and two eggs. Hash Browns were nice and buttery. There were 5 tables ahead of me as I entered, but was seated within a few minutes. Manager saw that my order had not been taken after sitting for a few minutes and came over and promised she would be there shortly. Nice West O breakfast dive, if you know how to find it!
Never been there. Â If I am ever looking for a breakfast place out west, I may need to check that out.

I surprised myself it was not on the top of my visit/revisit list.MadMartin8 wrote:Oh my god, this place is still around? I went to this place all the time when I was kid... I completely forgot about it!
I'm going to go again soon, thanks Coyote!
I tend to judge every restaurant on how they deliver Hash Browns.
I judge all against Waffle House, the best ever!!!
I guess there are Plenty of closer dives in East O?Coyote wrote:You have never been? For shame. It is one of W O's best! dives!

I've eaten at Waffle House many times, most recently in JAX just before taking off. However, I'm drawing a blank on how they prepare the hashbrowns and if they are unusual, although I'm sure I've had them. LOL, my one co-worker down there keeps calling it "Awful House."Coyote wrote:MadMartin8 wrote:I tend to judge every restaurant on how they deliver Hash Browns.

Re: Shirley's Diner
I ate there this morning for the first time. With the cold, people were opting to stay home, so it was very slow for a Sunday morning from what I was told. Anyways, I had your garden variety breakfast: 2 eggs, bacon, hashbrowns, and pancakes. It was all excellent.

I just went there for the first time a few weeks ago. Parents were coming through town and we stopped in for breakfast. I was impressed, very good diner food.

Building permits for the now closed Pizza Hut at 13838 R Plz (138th and Q) have Shirley's Diner in the project description. They are likely moving from the strip mall next door to that building in the foreseeable future.

Even though lots of people out here in Millard love Shirley's Diner...........I ain't one of them! I do not like greasy spoon diners Sam I Am. What a disappointing development that is.
Re: Shirley's Diner
Great news!
I always kinda grit my teeth when I see the name of a good local place in the title, fearing "closed" or "closing" will be in the text. Expansion is most excellent news.
I would much rather have this than yet another over-exposed chain place move in.
On the other hand, AFAICR, none of the occupants in that building, other than Pizza Hut have been very long lived. I sure wish them luck and continued success!

Re: Shirley's Diner
There were a few businesses which stayed at that shopping plaza for quite a few years, but overall it mostly attracts short lived tenants. Maybe with old town Millard being redeveloped to the North, the SE corner of Millard Ave and Q may start getting more attention. It's clear that the landlords don't want to put any money into the buildings.

Re: Shirley's Diner
This is awesome news. More seating! The only thing the place lacked
Re: Shirley's Diner
The church that's in the building is the one one that owns it. To the SW the owners of Pizza Machine owe the plaza down to the Dollar General. It has been a few years but I always thought Shirley's had good food for brunch.jessep28 wrote:There were a few businesses which stayed at that shopping plaza for quite a few years, but overall it mostly attracts short lived tenants.
