We went to The Pink Cadillac Diner for breakfast. The pink building is hard to miss with the pink Cadillac sitting outside. Inside, the diner is very reminiscent of an old school 50’s diner, decorated with a rock & roll theme, with a vintage jukebox in the corner.
Marie was friendly, informative and attentive without being over-bearing. The biscuits and gravy were flavorful but not over-rich. I added two over-medium eggs, which were perfectly cooked.
Chris ordered the John Wayne. He is not a fan of ham, so he asked to switch the ham for a chopped beef patty, which was a perfect mid-rare. The grits had a wonderful true grit flavor and the potatoes were fluffy on the inside with a nice crunch on the outside. The bacon had a beautiful texture and melted in your mouth. The coffee, served in pink mugs, was excellent.
The diner serves breakfast all day. If you want the sausage gravy, however, get there before 11.
Cost for two coffees and two meals (with some boxed up to take home) $19.40
I love discovering super quaint, GREAT FOOD, small, oddly located restaurants!
Ooh! Yum! This sounds delicious!
Sounds like you had a great meal there.
We eat there every time we are in that area.
I’m a sucker for diners. I would absolutely visit the Pink Cadillac Diner!
It has a fun, funky vibe. I love the pink Cadillac parked out front.
OMG biscuits and gravy are a weakness for me!
One of my favorite breakfast menu items.
Being from the west coast of Canada we don’t have grits, I’ve only tried them once, and liked them!
I’ve discovered shrimp & grits and order it almost every time I find it on a menu, especially in the South.
I love trying out local food!
We almost always pick a local place over chains.
This sounds so fun! These pics are making me hungry
It is a fun place to eat.
We could eat breakfast for any meal of the day!
Yum! Biscuits and gravy look delicious (they are not a thing here in Canada, but I love indulging when I’m south of the border),
What a cute place and the price is certainly right!
I already ate breakfast, but now I want second breakfast! I love finding places like this with good home cookin’ and a fun ambiance. Thanks for sharing!
It DOES look like an old fashioned diner inside. How fun! I love finding new places to eat.
