Second Street Diner

We were here on Sunday the 5th of October for breakfast. The food was good here the price was right. And the service was good. We were also here for breakfast on 2/7/26 on a Saturday. Again great food, great service. It appears to be that this is the place to eat.

Nice diner in Madison serving all the usual fare, burgers, sandwiches and all day breakfast. We had the philly cheese steak and a delicious Dutch apple pie. Great friendly service.

This was the diner I grew up eating at with my grandparents for the last two decades. There is an assortment of food options. The waiters all know you and ask how the kids and spouse are doing. And there is a deck of cards at some of the tables if you want to play a card game. Additionally, for the kids, there is a super cool and iconic fish tank that I've been putting my face up to for as long as I can remember. To give this place anything less than a perfect score would be a desecration of my heritage.

If you are in a hurry I dont recommend you stop in for a quick bite. Its possible you could be there for awhile. They do say if its after 11a expect a longer wait but we arrived at 1015a. Food was excellent but somehow one sausage patty got lost in the kitchen according the waitress it was 20 mins after out plates came out that it arrived to the table.

Atmosphere is 60.s. Breakfast was delicious and generous. Nate was our server. Happy and friendly. Made time to chat with us. Sso glad we stopped for breakfast.
