OK Diner in Shropshire

Went for the first time on a Wednesday. Conviently, there was a burger deal on. Nice food, friendly staff. Recommended.

Friendly service and a warm and homely vibe. Vintage aesthetics and an overall American theme. Food was brought out promptly and was delicious! Hard to locate within Oswestry as got a bit lost on the way! Overall a great experience. Would probably come again!

Decent quality and quantity of food but it is a bit overpriced. Service was good.

Well worth the visit will use again

AVOID. I parked here for five minutes to use the bathroom, as I was very ill, and I got charged £100, which was unappealeable. DO NOT BE TRICKED LIKE I WAS. Do not support a business who's respect for humanity is so severely impaired.

Running a parking Racket. Avoid.

Nice welcome on arrival. Various range of meals on the menu. Many breakfast options are available. If you are looking for an American type diner, this is the place. Excellent service presenting good food at a reasonable price.

Another victim of the parking charge! 11 minutes feeding our dogs for a £60 fine. Reading the reviews the OK Diner doesn't sound great either. Avoid!

Really nice, will definitely go again.

My sister and i stopped here on our way home and were served an amazing all-day breakfast 😋 we will definitely call in here again for food. Reasonable prices too.

Staff were really lovely and friendly. Service was great. Really helped me relax from a stressful journey home! Also the cheesecake was tasty 😋

Do NOT eat here!!! Wasn’t warned about parking fine and the restaurant refuse to help get it removed. Will never eat here again!

OK Diner dished out a £100 parking fine to a pregnant woman who parked up just to use the toilets. She didn't feel comfortable enough with the dual roundabout situation given that she's a new driver and the roundabout situation is still quite new and wasn't showing up on her satnav yet. OK Diners CCTV clearly showed her P-plates and she was parked for a matter of minutes. It doesn't matter what their food is like or what their service is like. Fining a pregnant woman £100 for a quick toilet break is morally reprehensible and nobody should support this joke of a business.

Nothing to complain about until the £100 parking bill arrived two weeks later Absolute rip off, apparently you need to log your vehicle details to avoid this. Or keep the receipt to appeal. Shady behaviour for a services area- the business model is obviously to rip people off. Will not be stoppping by again here or anywhere else Other restaurants are available.....

Amazing, the food was superb and the service was attentive without being intrusive. Plus the portions were huge

A real treat on a long journey. All the indulgent diner treats you expect, with something fir everyone. Be prepared to leave full.

Disgraceful slow service £100 parking charge from 3rd party service to park for 11 minutes. Avoid like the plague!

Lovely American themed diner, with tasty food and large portion sizes. The refillable coffee, plus a triple sausage hot dog were highlights, along with the all the staff being good banter. Highly recommend and bring your appetite!

Great food and service. Still miss Starvin' Marvins in Manchester!

Disgusted with this place. We parked up and queued up to see if we could bring our dog in. We were told no. We got back in the car and drove to KFC. A few days later we received a parking ticket! We disputed it and explained what had happened. They refused to accept this and we’ve now received a Debt Recovery Plus letter saying we have to pay £170!! Shocking when all we wanted to do was eat at the restaurant!

Really nice quiet place. Kids eat for free with paying adult. Food was great. It was nice & clean & staff was really friendly

I would like to give 10 Stars to this OK Diner if I could!! Everytime I come here the welcome, the service and food are all brilliant. Its the best Cob Salad I have anywere I go. You shouod definitley try it. I look forward to my next visit

Parked up to answer a phone call and got a £60 fine. There is no reason for this, its not exactly a city centre location.

Food great atmosphere perfect. Similar to Johnny rockets. Well recommend

Don’t waste your money. Staff were nice, the setting is a novelty but there’s nothing special at all (and nothing American!) about the food. Tasteless fries and a cheeseburger with a plastic cheese square thrown on top in a cheap bun with Heinz tomato ketchup. Had some salad on but not even a gherkin. Maybe other options are better but if it’s an American burger you’re after save your money and go to McDonalds.

Food was lovely but to be honest not worth the cost (I think you are paying for the experience of a traditional American diner which for a one off I was willing to do but not something you could do more regularly) Service wasn't super fast (but to be honest we were a little late on for dinner and they were closing down some of the tables so maybe they would be more hot on during main dinner service) The atmosphere was relaxed and the diner itself was clean and a fun experience. Good clean toilet facilities and staff were friendly and welcoming.

Unfortunately OK Diner has gone down hill. Prices have rocketed up and portion sizes gone down.. Staff have changed are not very friendly.. Not looking forward to the next visit.. thats if there another visit..??

Really slow service - more than an hour to bring food on a day that was not busy, only a third of tables had people at them. Some dishes were good (fried chicken) others (burgers) were not. One order was wrong. Hard to recommend.

The food took an incredibly long time, the hot wings are absolutely covered in the hot sauce which was so hot, it was almost inedible, and there was a waitress who was rude and made us feel quite uncomfortable.

Food is great, and with refillable drinks included hot tea or coffee and a wonderful atmosphere. You couldn't ask for anything more x (Wednesday is the cheapest day to do with burgers for £7.50)

Great little diner, nice breakfast, one member of staff needs more training to get it right.

Great food and friendly service 👌

Service was good - the server came over and said "what drinks would you like?" , I said I'd have a Budweiser, he practically jumped straight on me and said you will have to order a mains with that, which we hadn't even got to order yet. Atmosphere - thought it would be more of an American feel than just decor The food was average nothing amazing for the price

AVOID! They're running a car parking scam. I pulled into their car park intending to go into the OK Diner but had to leave after a few minutes due to an emergency. Received a £60 parking fine in the post a few weeks later. Looks like hundreds of other people have had the same treatment (look up the newspaper articles on it) but it looks like they might be deleting reviews about this, to keep the unsuspecting victims rolling in. This is really low life behaviour and they should be ashamed.

I pulled into their car park but had to leave a few minutes later due to an emergency. Received a £60 fine in the post a few weeks later. I was not aware of any obvious signage telling me I couldn't park there, and regardless I fully intended to purchase a coffee there. I saw dozens of other reviews about this recently but it looks like they're deleting them all. Not sure how they're getting away with that. Anyway, it's clearly a scam so avoid at all costs.

Popped in for breakfast. The chef is amazing. Fried breakfast, pancakes, everything was perfect. Lush apple juice. My ten year old: “The food was 👍🏻 and the table service was good too and I give this place a … 10/10”

Not the wow factor expected when we walked in, very thin cheap cutlery, food just ok. Won't go back in a rush.

Nice, good food. Friendly service. Clean. All you want really.

Absolutely rubbish manger was rude shouting across the building very unclean I could of eaten my food out of a bin it would be cleaner

Very attentive to 91 year old and careful to make sure order was Gluten Free

Disappointed with the attitude towards car parking, car park empty, giving the wrong impression.

From the outside it looks like a typical American concept and when you step in the music and atmosphere is great. Unfortunately the food doesn't match, the pulled pork hash is tasteless with a majority of potato and limited pulled pork. The beef chilli was plain, no dip provided as per the menu and nothing offered when this was pointed out. Such a shame.

Lovely breakfast, really nice inside and great service.

We stopped for lunch on our way to Churchstoke camping. I saw they did a gluten free selection which is great as so many places fail to deliver for people with an autoimmune condition like coeliac disease. The food was lovely and so was the place and staff. We will definitely return.

This place popped up on my maps travelling back from North Wales back to Portsmouth. What a great little diner. Will definitely be returning on my way back to Wales.

Very nice food and friendly staff not a bad price either ,music in there wasnt goo loud unlike some places you go.Would definitely go again

Went there for a lovely meal with the family and got stung with a £60 parking ticket for doing so, nobody informed me that I needed to type in my reg and the staff were of no help when I informed them putting all the responsibility on the company that issued the charge.. Absolutely disgusting and will not be returning!

Good service from the girl the breakfast was ok nice atmosphere with the decor and old music playing all the time worth the stop

Delicious food served quickly by friendly staff... milkshakes are pretty special too

Yummy milkshakes, nice food, quick service

Quick service, food was good and generous portions. Free on site parking but need to register number plate when you go in diner.

Attentive, smiling service - the extra coffee came without me asking. The Tex-Mex breakfast was one of the best breakfasts I,ve had.

Nice little Diner, all enjoyed the experience

Cold burger, didn't finish it... Cheap products, not very good fries, the desert was not too bad but other than that nothing really good except the decoration.Very expensive for what it is.

The food is delicious here and the service is excellent. Also a good price for services food. We stopped on route to our destination and it was so nice it was our stop.on route back aswell.

It gone downhill since we last visited. And its now more expensive- such a shame.

Bit extortionate for food I wouldn't give to the dog. Oswolds cross is nearby or KFC, both absolutely obliterate this place in terms of food and pricing. Money is tight for a lot of people, if you can't do the job properly, don't charge those prices and call it food. Almost £15 for hunters chicken... For it to come out completely burnt underneath, along with burnt BBQ sauce, gross soggy mushrooms and about 10 flecks of shredded cheese. Prices of this place somewhat match Hickories in wrexham... Except the food is in a different league.

Me and ex husband use this place as a 1/2 way to meet up and drop off my daughter to stay with her dad. My ex its has been a really good time, and I would recommend it to anyone.

Fab place. Just had drinks but food coming out looked tasty.

Food was lovely and hot. Had to wait a very long time for service. The tables were not cleaned between customers and ours was sticky. Yuk ! Staff were all young and not friendly at all.

A tad chilly under the aircon. Food cooled quickly. Was good tho, great music?n fab staff.

Food value for money, much better than McDonald's or KFC,

Great food and friendly staff 👌

Went here for lunch with my friend and her daughter. Her daughter ate free and portion size was good. My friend is a vegetarian so had bean burger which she really enjoyed and hot choc brownie 😋 I had double burger and a black forest sundae which was huge. You can tell the burgers are fresh and the fries are gorgeous.. worth the money. Service was fantastic staff are lovely defo go back

Great food, great service and great atmospher. Very clean and welcomeing.

Visited for the first time as had seen good reviews. When we sat down the table was clean, however under the table was littered with food. The toilets were disgusting, and looked they had not been checked for a long time. Food was OK. When you sell drinks that are free refills you should not need to ask waiting staff who had walked past an empty glass about 4 times. It would never happen in the majority of dinners I have visited in the US. Don't think I will be visiting again soon. One plus I should mention is their very good Gluten Free menu.

Good for vegans and veggies. Lots of vegan and veggie food, all very reasonably priced. The staff are very friendly and efficient, able and willing to accommodate requests for dishes not on the menu. I swapped out eggs for extra hash browns so I could have the veggie breakfast. The surroundings are comfortable and classy. The OK Diner has its own style, which I very much like! Access was easy, flat from the car park with wide doors, toilets also on the flat.  There is a well-equipped disabled toilet, doubling as a baby changer, accessed on the flat. Highly recommended, we'll definitely be going again.

Stopped off for breakfast food was good we were the only people in the cafe. Probably because the prices were on the high side. Unfortunately KFC wasn't open at 9.30 in the morning

Felt rushed to order, but staff friendly and helpful. Looked like the building had been face lifted, so very clean and tidy 🙂

Ok I'll preface this by saying we have enjoyed many meals at your Oswestry branch. But tonight it left a lot to be desired. a) Soft drinks were flat. The replacement coke was flat too. b) One starter, the jalapenos bites, had exactly 2 small nuggets. That's £3.80 each! c) My dinner of a chilli cheese burger with loaded fries somehow got misinterpreted as loaded natchos! Very poor performance that let the diner down very much. We did query the burger but although they said they would fix it they never returned. Email contacts with management were rude, dismissive and arrogant. Will never return.

Food was good. Service ok but the waitress was not particularly welcoming. Not many customers when we went in - so felt a bit outnumbered by the staff who congregated around the till chatting. Not particularly professional? Just my view. Happy to support a local business rather than the chain next door.

always a good breakfast here. Staff are good too.

Becoming one of my faves, kids eat free, very reasonably priced, food was outstanding and service was fab. Thanks for having us!

Popped in for lunch with my 4 year old, kids eat free with an adult meal which is a bonus, although adult meals and drinks on the expensive side given the location. Good quality food, but I do feel slightly over priced given the nearby restaurants and other options Service OK but nothing special, food was quick and hot

Food only a 3 star because because I had jalapeño cheese bits for starters and they was still frozen in the middle. But my main was our of this world, amazing.

Should have read the reviews before we visited this place, we complained to staff and emailed management, not satisfactory response, hence review. The Extra thick Bloomer toast is extra thin regular bread toasted, false advertising is not acceptable for good customer relations, would not go back

Absolutely diabolical. Three totally disinterested waiting staff. We were shown to a table and then totally ignored for 20 minutes. The place wasn't even busy. When it got to 25 minutes, we got up and walked out. We went past the three staff on the way to the door and not one even bothered to say anything to us. A shame as the menu looked good. These ladies need to be told if you work in the hospitality sector, you have to be customer focused. We will never go back and have been telling everyone about our experience. That's a lot of good will lost.

Usually nice food last time we went they were short staffed and you could tell loads of mistakes made with orders

Had a fantastic meal here it’s been a while since I last visited the staff were young but very friendly and the restaurant was spotlessly clean. Will defo be visiting again. The milkshakes was amazing

I frequently go to OK diner every time I visit Oswestry...the service and food are amazing and the staff couldn't be more friendly and helpful

Really good deal for kids to eat free. Good food and fast service

Always good .. visit regular .. quick and comfortable with a nice American 50,s feel to it

First time trying ok Diner, food was good and we will go again. Nice helpful staff

Good diner, had the berry milkshake and it was divine (really appreciated that they gave us the holder with remainder of milkshake that they couldn't fit in the cup), the crispy chicken burger was also good. The sauce choice is a great touch. The only thing that was just a little off was that the service was a bit off beat, at first was too fast and later it was hard to catch them. But generally all good.

Great value and very tasty food. Get a discount card and you get 15%off your order.

Just OK. Misadvertising on the menu. Don't promise "extra thick toast" and dish out cheapo medium cut supermarket bread for £3.00. Pancakes tasted straight out of the microwave. Have the people behind OK Diner ever visited a real American diner?? Service was mixed. Young staff generally helpful and friendly. Older manager was unable to crack a smile or show any hint of understanding how a customer should be treated. The whole atmosphere was somewhat tense. Head Office not interested in customer experience either.

4 adults 1 teenager and a toddler as we didn’t have a meal that required knives and forks the toddler meal was not free went to use their discount card but as there were more than 4 people sat at the table couldn’t use that either. Staff were friendly enough I wouldn’t be going back

A bit rushed even though it was empty. As soon as we got in we were given the menu. I had just put the last piece of food in my mouth when the lady took my plate and asked if I want anything else. I said the bill and it was presented while I’m still chewing. I’m sure they could have waited a bit. On the plus side the portions were large

We have not been to OK for a long time but the food was lovely.

Heard mixed reviews on this establishment, but I thought it was very good if you want the American thing closer to home

Always consistent fast food and was served with a smile and enthusiasm today.

Dirty grot hole Staff don't listen Pushy manager Impatient Food disgusting Inedible

The staff were lovely . The place was spotless. Great place with great food and customer service.

Food was ok ish! Not happy as they put a review on here saying ( have I looked in the mirror. ) could not believe what I saw, not on

It's ok ish!! I said it was ok ish, on Web site. Then they replied. ( have u looked in the mirror) omg could not believe it .

Cozy little taste of America, the staff were lovely and service was quick

Excellent location and venue. Great food

Never been to an OK diner so decided to try it out. When we arrived it was not that busy and we’re seat quickly. The interior is a unique old style American diner look which is good. The menu offer a selection in America style food with all day breakfast options. Ordered drinks first and had to wait a while for them even though restaurant was quiet. I had a breakfast with pancakes but my side of black pudding did not arrived at same time so reminded them and they had to cook it! The pancakes did not seems freshly made but cooked in microwave as they had solid bits in them like they had been overcooked in a microwave, very disappointing. The overall portion size is underwhelming for the price. Also the service could do with slightly sharping up. Would not recommend for breakfast meal.

Called in on a wet miserable evening after a long drive. Friendly staff. Had the Yankee Doodke Dandy which was delicious. Son had the nacho burger which he enjoyed and the other 2 in our party had the chicken. The place was very clean. We would visit again
