“ I work at a nearby building and my coworkers and I always order Togo food in the mornings. I love that they constantly have specials, and all the food I've gotten from here has been great. Seems to be really cheap and really good! ”
“ Not gonna lie, I was starving by the time I got off the trail an hour later in search of the sunrise. But this place is always so crowded every single time I pass. It's lucky that I got in, but the early bird caught the worm this morning. The first thing I walked into was a plethora of assorted desserts. The waitress hands me a menu, but I'm already certain I want dessert for breakfast. The music is great, the people are friendly and I'm having an amazing slice of strawberry rhubarb crunch cake for breakfast!!! ”
“ Tucked away in the college town of Farmville, this historic diner (since 1952) is a throwback to a simpler time. Hours are 9a-2p and seating is limited. A true diner experience with eating at the counter. A few seats outside are available. I got the special of crispy chicken on a brioche bun with a side cucumber salad. Service was quick and friendly. They didn't skimp on the chicken portion either. Part of the ambiance was listening to the locals conversation and being welcome to join in. Prices are more in line with 2024, but I do recommend the trip down memory lane. ”
“ Outstanding ! The service was lovely and timely! My friend and I sat outside. They have 3 tables spread out so not a lot of room. I had a BLT with crispy chicken. Delicious! Chicken was crispy and juicy and the lettuce and tomatoes were fresh! The French toast with strawberries was OK. The strawberries and sauce had lots of flavor but the toast was a bit bland. Definitely worth a try though! My friend had the crispy chicken biscuit with chipotle honey sauce! The biscuits were delicious!!! So flaky, buttery, and flavorful! Overall give this place a try! They have bar seating inside and a bathroom around the back. ”
“ The food was really good and the service was great. Our server was so friendly. Very quaint. ”
“ Perfection! Walker's is that small-town diner where the waitress knows everyone's name... I stopped in for breakfast in December 2023, sat at one of the dozen or so stools and soaked in the joyous ambiance. The food was exactly as you'd hope, generous and delish, with impeccable service. A+ ”
“ We enjoyed a fantastic burger at Walker's Diner today. A nostalgic and quaint diner setting. Super friendly staff. The burger was cooked from fresh meat right in front of us on a griddle. My wife and I split a burger. Who does that? A man told to do it by his wife. They were kind enough to split the burger and serve in separate baskets with fries. A great experience. The breakfast looked great as well. My only regret was listening to my wife and spitting the burger. Next time I will have my own burger because it is that good. Highly recommend. ”
“ Food is good and freshly southern cooking made especially the homemade apple rhubarb pie with black pepper in the crust. Service is always welcoming, friendly and with a big smile and as well as helpful. The Ambience of this place is a wonderful approximately 15 seats of old fashion counter stool diner that's up close and personal with your neighbors sitting next to you but there is also outdoor seating (no outside ordering or service) with umbrellas for the 3 seasons to enjoy the temperate weather ”
“ Dine here! Breakfast was just how breakfast should be! No surprises & nothing weird. We sat at the counter inside and our waitress was friendly, funny and a hard worker. She was totally on it and managed the steady flow of customers with ease. Without a doubt I would return and recommend Walkers! ”
“ A nice quaint diner with charm that seats about 15 people max inside. However, on warmer days they have ample outside seating. The inside is not very spacious, but the counter top seating with built in bar stools provides sufficient space to eat your breakfast or lunch comfortably. You can even see the cooks preparing your meals. Service was friendly and fast! I ordered the sweet potato pancakes with sausages and a side order of fried apples. My husband had the biscuits with sausage gravy, hash browns and eggs. The portions were generous and the food was downright delicious! It's a no frills, home cooked style, honest meal that was prepared with pride and care. Surprisingly, my sausages weren't greasy either and the food was very filling and didn't load us down. We were both incredibly impressed with the quality of food. They even sell homemade dog biscuits, which I contemplated purchasing for my siblings' dogs, but the treats required refrigeration. (We reside 2 hours away from here). Note: We later realized after leaving, that they have parking behind the building. There is a small entrance to a lot behind the diner. We ended up paying for street parking with coin meters across the street. Initially, we were in a parking lot nearby but realized that particular lot is for green front furniture and three other businesses and towing is enforced. So we left to find street parking. Bathrooms: It didn't appear to have restrooms, but fortunately there are clean public restrooms a few feet away from the diner to the right, if facing the diner. ”
