34D Burnt Basin St, Red Deer, AB T4P 0J2, Canada
First time going today Went for brunch. It was so delicious The vibe the place gets off is definitely from the old days. Staff are very nice and friendly I will definitely go back, and I suggest you go try it out if you haven't yet !
Don't often give fives. The toasted Denver and grilled cheese were great. The French fries were delicious, best we've had in a restaurant in years. Hot, crispy on the outside, soft on the inside. Will definitely get off of Highway 2 when going north or south.
This is a perfect place to have a quick breakfast!. food is great,quite big portions and they served it fast and hot. I would definitely come back here again to grab a meal.
Been looking for an actual diner for a long time. This is it. Decent, well portioned food. (Big plates) lovely staff. Decor is on par for a diner. Was kinda weird being the only person there that didn't drive a pick up. Lol. All in all well worth the visit. I'll have to go back for lunch sometime
What a great Diner! Service was fantastic with a "home town" feel. Food was excellent and the Diner atmosphere was perfect!
We love little places like this. Off the beaten path. Great food, real waitresses very old fashioned dinner just like the movies.
Love love love these 1950s vibes! I highly recommend their brunch and the women are respectable, approachable and with positive attitudes! We came here twice already. First visit we are late at Saturday afternoon be advised they open till 2pm only, but with smile and good quality food we are happy! Second visit was with other people who have a toddlers(and you knew they are noisy!) but those ladies are very friendly and I’m glad they have a lot of patience with them. No one yells to those people, so the atmosphere here is very welcoming and peaceful! Customer service and Food must be 💯🌟
It’s was in March,2022 we got to this diner was excited cause outside was like back to 60-70’s which weren’t born yet I just saw it on movies once you get inside was amazing place to dine the staff ask us if it’s our first time and they give you a welcome jingle so nice,very clean place was well maintained if you think was an old place but you wouldn’t think, the chef lady was very clean and well served food. A very nice place to stop have your gas filled at gasoline alley then drop by to rest and have breakfast or brunch, definitely come back.
Very friendly staff and food is unbelievable good
Great place and food was excellent.
Great staff, excellent food, nice atmosphere, friendly place
Great greasy spoon. Everything you want: older decor, clean, small, good food, reasonable prices.
Amazing food the cook is dominates in the kitchen best breakfast it s a must stop place all the staff super friendly and respectful and it s a very happy environment my new favourite restaurant
Quick, delicious breakfast - cool 50 s diner feel - with great, friendly service. Hidden gem
Great service, wonderful atmosphere, good food! Winning combination.
We work near by and try to get lunch from there at least once a month. We have never been disappointed. The portions are good, the food is delicious, and it is always ready on time for pick-
Nice diner, beef veg. soup was excellent. Good burgers. Great breakfast also.
If you want to take a trip down memory lane, this is the place!! Had a wonderful time!
Good food. Bring an appetite. The milkshakes were really good. The atmosphere is very relaxed.
Hidden gem 100% you gotta check this place out!
Fantastic little lunch/brunch spot with a fun retro diner feel. Service was great. Food was typical American diner fare and with fair portions. Will come back again
My friend brought me here after a long day on the road. Real good home cooked food. Great service and terrific value. Thanks to the gals running the show. You do it right. The way things used to be. Ron
This is my go-to breakfast place in Red Deer. Excellent food (you will not leave hungey), the service is off the chart, and the place itself is like stepping back in time. I would recommend this to anyone in the city or passing through to stop in.
Cutest little diner a few minutes off the highway but well worth the detour
Great atmosphere! Cute spot for a bite. Weve always admired this location and wanted to do a photoshoot.
Food is always great, and good prices
It s just OMG delicious. Great service. Great food
Awesome experience! Great diner food, friendly staff .very busy at noon. The soup was phenomenal. Coffee was a little on the pricy side for just plain coffee. But all around a good experience.
This place rocks ! Anytime I pass red deer on a drive I make a point of stopping at queens dinner ! Awesome atmosphere, good food and reasonable pricing. What s not to like !?
Love the food, and the ladies that work there
Wicked place excellent club house sandwich. Friendly staff and cool old diner.
Good place to eat!!!!
Excellent vanilla shake Rueben sandwich.
Will be back! Wonderful customer service, food served quickly. Ordered the buffalo chicken wrap with there soup which were both a 5/5 Caesar salad was your basic. and the toasted Denver was definitely missing something. But was still good especially with the soup but Adding cheese lettuce and some sort of sauce (maybe mayo) Would upgrade it substantially but other wise it was good. Reason for the 4/5: coffee was very bland and watery. finding a local coffee roaster and maybe learning a few things about coffee would make it a lot better and would be a quick fix. Milkshake is alright upgrading to using real fruit and using vanilla ice cream as a base instead of the artificial flavoured ice cream you can buy at whole sales would be awesome though.
This is a go to breakfast place for my family when we are in town. Wish you guys were open longer hours lol
Great food and better service!
Very good food.
Delicious food and excellent service. Parking: Lots of parking, multiple entrances to parking lot Food : 5/5 |
Food was very decent, a little slow on the coffee refills for a diner.
Great place and good people.
This place is so cool! Really cool atmosphere, the food was sooo good! We went for breakfast and did not disappoint! Kim, our waitress, was awesome. 10/10
A real hidden gem! Highly recommended. Our server was so friendly and the food was delicious! Make sure to take lots of pictures outside as there is an old phone booth :)
EXCELLENT Diner!!! My husband travel thousands of miles a year on road trips, and Queen s Diner had one of the best breakfasts I have eaten! Plus the service was exceptional (best waitress ever)!! If you re looking for a diner, we give this one the highest recommendation possible.
Best restaurant in town the food is awesome the service is perfect and it feels like a great old time like it was growing up the cooks are the queens of cooking. Customer for life
The service was amazing very friendly and the food was good Kid-friendliness: Super sweet to the baby that was with us never complained Food : 5/5 |
Very nice place - like on the movies - good food at fair price.
Great little find in the Queens Park business district!! Old railcar diner! Service and food were amazing!
I had the BEST clubhouse and fries here! It was great to taste real food! I told the ladies it was worth every penny! I do know, when I eat out again, it will be here. I cant wait to try something else here! I also have to mention the great service as well! Thank you! Food
Great food.
-Amazing food -Very cool atmosphere the only thing missing is the 50s/60s style jukebox with a $.10 option to pay for a couple songs and have it turned up instead of the normal radio station! -the service was just ok. The waitress needs a lesson in etiquette as she kept asking us over and over if we needed another minute to decide! Even though we had our menus in front of our faces! Besides that the overall experience was fantastic!!
Great food, huge portions, and I think the quickest turnaround time from order to table I ve ever seen!
super cute little place... loved the 50s decor. Good food, good service. Very hard working ladies!!
Good food. Great service conversation with owner and cooks.
Classic diner food with a great homestyle experience Dietary restrictions: Had gluten friendly options and made my meal to suit Food : 4/5 |
Train car diner! Great simple diner food. Always fast and fresh. I personally love the breakfast, the clubhouse, and on Fridays, the clam chowder.
Tasty food near the highway.
Always delicious, with a 50s time capsule atmosphere!
Great food,friendly staff,extremely clean, atmosphere and decor is
I stopped in here for lunch during the week on my travels because of the high ratings. This place is very retro, cosy and colorful. The waitress was very friendly and approachable. I had the loaded burger which isnt listed on the menu but is called The Princess and it was delicious. So was the homemade soup I had on the side. What made my experience was when I went to pay and she gave me a special callout at the till to the whole restaurant! Lol
Best Monte cristos and milkshakes around!
First time customer, heard rumors of this hidden gem, wasnt disappointed. Will definitely be back with more friends. Great atmosphere, great staff, and quality food at decent prices. Best Pickle spears and dry ribs in town.
Love the interior design! All teal! Great food, even better service and they mix your milkshake the old fashioned way ;)
Great place for milkshakes :)
Great diner! Food is always great. Classic diner!! The wait staff is always friendly!!
Just a great little place for great food and reasonable price
Great service!! The french fries were excellent! I would recommend this place to friends
Soup?! Yes, soup! That was a suggestion our party didnt regret! Everything was delicious, service was exceptional and we felt like home, even though we come from a different country all together. The place is a gem, unique and very cozy!! No food pictures just coz once we tasted it, we didnt think of anything else.
Great place to enjoy a delicious home cooked meal in a retro 1950s styled diner.
Neat atmosphere, for a small space the layout is very efficient. Staff is great, prompt and quick when busy and friendly with time to visit when it s not. Reasonably priced food, great portions and great taste. Definitely worth a trip to check it out!
Great experience and good breakfast
Awesome place for Diner food. If that s what you are looking for, you will not be disappointed! Quick service and good grub
Cool lil place friendly people and great food
Tasty food with a 50s vibe!
Met a colleague for lunch at the diner, excellent service and very good food. Very good experience.
A new favorite diner for us to enjoy, loved the food, the staff and the old school decor/feel
Favorite breakfast place.
Typical diner food in a classic trailer; very fun to check out!
Its is welcoming and absolutely cute place beautiful
Fantastic service and great food. I love the atmosphere and style of the diner as well. Will definitely come back again.
Love the vibe of the place. Great staff. Dietary restrictions: Good breakfast didnt mess with my diabetes.
Super old fashioned diner. Pretty cheap, perfectly edible breakfast food
Great food, friendly service and atmosphere Vegetarian options: A few vegetarian options such as the hamburger Parking: Plenty of parking in front of the diner Wheelchair accessibility: Wheelchair ramp
Little pricy by the time you add a coffee to your meal, but a good sized portion for the basic breakfast with bacon. Hash browns were a bit underwhelming but they were also the first batch off the grill and I was early, so they might have needed a bit more time. Parking: Lots of parking
The decor is kitschy and all that but the food was honestly quite bad and overpriced. Had to send my coffee back because it was so weak it just tasted like hot water and had to go hunting for ketchup on my own all over the restaurant as the waitress didn t ask. Breakfast was very bland. Was still charged for the coffee. Also only had the option of tipping a minimum of 18% which always crosses me. 15% not good enough for you? $20 for basic breakfast. Sorry, gotta call em as I see em. Not good.
Amazing place , what a beautiful little gem
Had soup and salad big bowl of homemade soup mm good
Another five star review for another 5 star experience. This place is great tasting and QUICK. The diner is set up in a old rail car and its nice and retro inside.
I quite often have lunch here, it s close to my office and shop. But the real attraction is the staff who welcome you like Family, and the amazing cooks who make everything from scratch including the soup every day. The effort that they all put into the menu and and the friendliest restaurant keeps me going back. I have never had a meal here that wasn t amazing no matter how simple it was. Every day the soups are made from love and fresh ingredients, and that is obvious in the quality and taste of the dishes they serve.
Cute retro diner. Always enjoyable.
Very friendly staff. Stayed open for us as we didnt know they closed at 2. They were very good with my son. Food was amazing. You expect diner food, but this was just cooked better. Typical options just made with more care. We stumbled accross this place after a 2 hour drive. Id glady drive 2 hours again for there BLT. Kid-friendliness: Very accomidating
Charming, great place for Breakfast or lunch!
Great place, great food, great people!
It was awesome and the service was great

This is a hidden treasure in Red Deer. They have a fun vibe with the retro theme, fantastic service that makes it an experience and the food is surprisingly well priced (and youre actually full after eating!) Great place to stop and relax
Always a good shop and service
Great, quiet little diner hidden on the north end of town. Service is always excellent, especially Fran, shes an amazing server. Always has a smile on her face. She even brings us out ice water for our dog on these hot summer days. Food is always good, have no complaints. Thank you for the amazing service.
Such a great place! Very cool atmosphere, awesome service, and super delicious food for great prices! My new favorite place!
This is what a diner is all about. Great people and real food. Thanks for a perfect lunch on a long motorcycle ride.
The staff was so friendly and hilarious. Made it feel like we were visiting some old friends. The food was also amazing. I will make sure to come here when ever I pass through red deer. P.s if its your first time make sure to sign their guest book. Also read some of it to!

Fantastic food, really true to the old diner vibe. Service was friendly and we felt very welcome.
Good food and kind customer service. Feels like home.

Sometimes in the summer Queens Diner will host a drive inn movie, with the Diner serving along with a Rock A Billie band...again the host and waitresses step up to make sure everyone is served with a smile and a friendly thanks that you come again. This themed diner along with good food, good service and good times

Cutest 50 s style diner. Great food, reasonable prices and amazing service. I will definitely be returning. If you want a delicious burger, Highly recommend their king Canadian burger!
food and service was great !!
Amazing
Wonderful lunch diner, not fancy just good food and service
This isn t where you go if you are sticking to a strict diet. The food is what you would expect at a diner, deliciously greasy! I ve been many times and the only teeny whine I have, is that the Rueben was a bit too greasy. Everything is always yummy and the service is superb! PS: Make sure to tell them that this is your first visit if they don t ask...
Heard many good things about this place over the years. Decided to try it out for breakfast. Its like walking back in time at this place. Really cool atmosphere. Great breakfast tho the spuds could have been a bit better. Ill definitely be going back!
Cute little diner. Fast and friendly service.
Tasty food, really quick service.
A great little spot for breakfast and lunch. Can get quite busy.
Super fun place to have lunch. Servers were very concerned that my first experience was a positive one. It was very positive! The apple pie and ice cream was awesome!
This place just oozes cool both inside and out! My son and daughter in law took us there for lunch on the last day of our trip to Red Deer (we drove up from Hamilton, Ontario to attend their wedding). He said we absolutely HAD to check it out because it reminded him of another restaurant wed go to all the time back in Ontario. As soon as we rolled up, my jaw nearly hit the ground! Neat old cars and trucks are parked outside a wicked art deco style garage, complete with gas pumps, lamp posts and a chalk outline on the door. After we took about a zillion pictures outside, it was time to go inside that beautiful old train car and get something to eat. I couldnt wait to see what it looked like inside! Wow. Just wow! It was all shiny chrome, Formica and autographed memorabilia. I wasnt born til the 70s but it was exactly like Id imagine the old diners from the 50s would look like. Squeaky clean too. So my son an that he brought in a few virgins from Ontario and immediately we all started with the jokes lol. Our waitress shouted to the other staff and the patrons that we were about to pop our cherries and we were handed a guest book to sign. My entry is dated June 4th if youre into corny puns lol. Anyway, the food was delicious and the portions were huge, the price was affordable and the ambiance was amazing. I loved our waitress too, she was hilarious! Best. Diner. Ever. Two forks up!
Great service, good food.
Fresh food friendly staff and great service
Never have I ever been disappointed in a meal here. Wonderful staff.
