What a great find for breakfast! The food was delicious and the service was excellent! The oatmeal pancakes and scrapple were the best. It’s a small place, but definitely worth the wait if the booths and counter seats are full.

My mom & I just picked up breakfast takeout for us & my grandma and just WOW!!! We loved absolutely everything we ordered! The biscuits are delicious & filling, the portions for the price are amazing and I had the best chocolate chip pancake I think I ever had in my life! The pancakes are big & fluffy. The side of meat was two pieces of scrapple which was wonderful as with most places you only get one piece. The toast was pre buttered & yummy. I just can't say enough good things, I am just happy that this place is so close to us & that we were able to get takeout before they closed at noon. Waiting for our food bags we enjoyed taking in all of the diner decor, the place is so adorable & hasn't changed since I was a little kid, I just regret not coming back sooner. Will definitely make a point to dine in often. The atmosphere is awesome & the tiny place gets packed but there is plenty of parking! They know how to cook good breakfast & with it being my fave meal of the day, I was more than satisfied.

This place seriously blew me away. Prospect diner has tons of character, the service is great and the food is awesome. It’s probably the best diner I’ve ever patronized. It’s a gem.

Love this little diner. MaKe sure to check out the specials on the chalkboard behind the counter before grabbing a booth or a stool. Booths are old and the seats were comfortable 20+ years ago but i guess that adds to the classic space and vintage vibe. The menu is creative -- only breakfast here--and the prices are very reasonable! The food is the star of the show, it's actually just delicious. Specials are creative and the rye bread/toast is an absolute must order! Hours are limited, the regulars will be at their habitual stools, the staff is friendly, definitely worth the stop on this busy stretch of road.

This diner has been there for as long as I can remember. Food is always great and at a reasonable price. Get there early because it can get very busy.

This is a DINER. It is perfect. The chef always has 3 interesting specials. The waitresses are classic nice, but not TOO nice with great humor. Bathrooms have fun vintage stickers from old films, hotels, etc. We make a point of gettung there for there limited hours. They do what they do best: breakfast!

Great diner with awesome servers and great food. The place was busy and the food came out so fast! Everything was cooked to perfection and tasted like home cooking! It's right off the interstate and easy to get on and off and in and out!
