Small Diner, but friendly place. I love sitting at the counter and watching the food prep on the griddle. Great Philly Cheesesteak, hash browns, bfast choices, and burgers!
Best breakfast in Gainesville and it's not even close. This place is perfect! The food and service are exceptional!

My wife and I are staying in Gainesville for a family wedding and we decided to try the 16th Ave Diner because we saw many great reviews online and boy were they right. The food was AMAZING!! The OJ was tasty and the coffee was fresh. The place was packed but we were able to get seating at the bar. Everyone who served us was awesome!! The food was absolutely incredible!! The eggs, pancakes, and hash browns were absolutely delicious!!! Service was quick!! TY, 16th Ave Diner!!!

It startles you a little. The pay counter perched at the glass front door like a eager pet, the smiles and waves of the staff passed casually like they’ve known you were coming, the benches and tables squashed in two rows like pews in a church. Cramped as it is, crowded as it is, it feel like you’re a part of a family. The portions too, are family sized. I got the 2-2 combo and coffee. It came promptly enough on two huge plates of french toast, hash browns, scrambled eggs, and bacon cooked to loving perfection. All for under $15! Of all the Gainesville diners I’ve visited, this one has the best bones. No pretend or fussy aloofness. Nothing but what they say they offer—an American roadside diner :) Thank y’all for a great experience.

This place is a hidden gem! Delicious food, amazing service, and inexpensive!! Servers were so attentive, food was made fresh and still came quickly even in a packed diner.
We enjoyed a tasty breakfast. Ordered eggs, bacon, home fries, and biscuit. Also ordered biscuits and gravy. Everything was perfectly cooked. Servers were friendly and food came out quickly. Would eat there again.

We were seated within minutes and a family restaurant. Wonderful service and very attentive to customers making sure that you are having a good experience. They were so sweet to my little ones bringing them coloring paper. We ordered the burger, pancakes and fish. Food was delicious and portions were great. Can't wait to come back.

Love this place. After Bill & Carol left it had some trials and tribulations, but recently got new owners and a new facelift. Everything is better. Everyone is super nice, so helpful, the food is great. This is my favorite classic breakfast spot in town.

Great little spot. Great place to get breakfast or lunch at. The staff for very accommodating and polite. It wasn't a long wait to be seated and the food didn't take very long to get as well. I have friends that come here daily to eat. And they always enjoy it as well. I would definitely recommend this place and come back
