Food greasy and just passable. LONG wait and we were the only customers. owner friendly but pushed her right wing agenda on us. Everyone is entitled to their opinion but it was very inappropriate to force politics on people looking to enjoy a meal. interesting little trolley and display. ok for a one time visit but would not return.

It's super small and a real greasy spoon. Too much talk and not enough cooking going on behind the grill. Food was okay, coffee was very good and better than expected. It was cheap

Such a wonderful little breakfast trolley! Breakfast was delicious... try the corned beef hash, and the home-made hot sauce! Food was prepared fresh to order, and the coffee was worth the stop on its own. Welcoming environment, you'll be made to feel at home! Don't be in a hurry... this is the perfect place to pause and enjoy the moment. Plenty of parking behind the trolley. Will be back.

Everything was perfectly prepared. I got the French toast with strawberries, sausage (made fresh by Amy herself) with eggs and hashbrowns. The hashbrowns were perfectly crispy.We also got a stack of pumpkin pancakes, which were some of the fluffiest I ever had.The trolley itself is incredibly welcoming and has the perfect comfort vibe. You are welcomed by Amy, who makes and serves everything fresh.If you’re in Kingston, go here for breakfast. ❤️?

Absolutely amazing everything is inexpensive and delicious. It’s typically a limited staff normally just the owner so you may have to wait a bit for your food. But I promise you it’s worth it. They also have THE BEST corn beef hash I’ve ever had, home made and so good I could eat an entire plate of just the hash. 100% recommend to anyone.

As a single male who is proficient in the kitchen I rely on local establishments for a majority of my meals. My morning routine begins at the trolley diner. The welcoming warm friendly atmosphere,made from scratch food and nostalgic feel ensures my day is off to a good start. The food is outstanding, priced below other breakfast eateries in the area with generous portions. I strongly recommend a visit or revisit to the trolley diner. I assure you will experience great food ,conversation and a warm welcome.

Couple running the place were great. Bacon was thick. House made hot sauce was incredible. Authentic diner experience.
Blondie makes truly delicious food while creating a welcoming vibe amongst all customers. She makes many items from scratch like homemade hot sauce and raspberry jam. So good. Will be back!

Great food, and atmosphere at this cute little Diner in Kingston. Haven't lived in the area long, and I work long hours, so finding this gem has been a blessing. Her Omelet Waffle is the best, it's a freshly made waffle with scrambled eggs, melted mozzarella, ham, and chives to top it off. I was there again last week, and had a toothache, so I wanted something hot and soft, and her omelet waffle hit the spot. Couldn't finish it, so she wrapped it to go. I want to give a special shout out to the owner Amy, who took the time to Google some meds she used for a previous toothache, and the gentleman who gave me the advil. Thank you to both of you. Great food, AND, hospitality. Michele.

We went there because of the 4.7 review rating for a diner. The highest rated diner in Kingston. Ratings are very deceiving. The place is like the neighborhood bar but in this case eating place. I guess the best analogy would be like a food truck with seating. One small grill to cook on, very slow service, the owner/cook/waitress and is more interested in conversation than providing good service. It took 45 minutes to get basic breakfast and a burger plus another 15 minutes to get a check. It's not possible to handle more than a few customers at a time because there simply isn't enough cooking area and they are clearly not interested in efficient service. If you have time to kill, read a book or newspaper, I guess the place is ok. If you are retired with nothing to do, on a budget, the place might be for you. Definitely not for a family or kids. The food is adequate at best, it's ok for what you get. The owner seemed nice. I'm only doing this review to be honest to other people. There is no way it should be a 4.7 or anything close.

Very cute little local diner. The menu is small and basic - breakfast, burgers and a couple of sandwiches- but everything is handmade by the owner who is friendly and personable. We were passing through Kingston and saw several reviews of Blondie's and were very pleased with our lunches. I had the "Engineer's Omelette " eggs generously stuffed with veggies and cheese and a side of tasty potatoes while my dining partner had a fresh salad. We enjoyed lunch and just hanging at a local eatery.
