"A family favorite! The Pamela's Diners are all uniquely decorated. This one has amazing, life-like murals of people enjoying life. No pictures because others were eating around us.... But it's fun for littles to pick out all the scenes. Love Pamela's crepe 🥞 style pancakes. So delicious. The bacon 🥓 is always perfection. The potatoes are always stellar; sadly, I didn't have room for them . This place is hopping on the weekend - if you can make it during the week it's much easier to get in and out. Though, people watching while waiting for a table is always a fun spectator sport! Our server was amazing. He was prompt, polite and very personable!"

"Great breakfast joint! Good vibes and the crepe style pancakes are incredible. The French Toast was a bit too sweet for me but all in all, very tasty place with great service."

"Pamela’s Diner in Shadyside brings that classic breakfast energy with a local twist. The space is a decent size, typical breakfast dinning. The staff is friendly, and the vibe leans nostalgic without feeling outdated. I went with pancakes, bacon, and eggs—fried over medium. The pancakes were super thin. Almost crepe-like. The batter was solid, and they hit the spot without feeling heavy. Bacon was crisp, eggs were cooked right. Things to note: Expect a wait during peak days / hours. They also have other locations."

"The pancakes are work the hype! I was told to go by some locals, and it did not disappoint! First time I got the short stack and that was perfect, second time got the chocolate chip and banana and it was a little too much for me, but still good. I will say skip the coffee - it was bitter no matter what I added to it, but the pancakes are definitely worth the hype and super cheap for the amount of food!"

"Friendly greeting upon arrival. Great service. Clean. Everything serviced prompt and hot. Excellent portions. GREAT COFFEE!!"
