Colony Diner & Restaurant
611 North Colony Road, Wallingford
- My husband and I love eating here. Hands down, the best diner we have eaten at since we moved to Connecticut almost 2 years ago and try to eat here often. We have never had a bad meal here and the food is always so fresh and so delicious. … More The staff is always so friendly and attentive but they don't hover, but are there when you need them. My only gripe (and it's not a bad thing) is that the portions are huge and are great to take home. Sometimes we can't take it home as we are running errands, etc and wish there were smaller portions to choose from sometimes. My favorite is the Chicken Scampi and my husband says you have to try their stuffed pepper soup and I agree, it is so flavorful! But anything we have ordered is so delicious!
- Great food. Great selection. A bit pricey for a diner, but worth it.
- Amazing! One of the best diners I have been to. Friendly staff and a great selection of food. I am vegan so I was able to get a great meal with a plethora of choices. It’s great to be able to order vegan while my partner can get regular … More eggs! Will be back! Thanks for being so inclusive!
- Local gem, I'm from a different state and I love going here for breakfast every time I'm in the area. Delicious food, great environment. Outdoor seating is great!
- Great clasic diner fare. The menu seemed to be split by breakfast, lunch, dinner, which may be a recent occurrence. Doesn't matter because of the large choice of dishes, all seeming to be a better choice than the last one you read! … More All was served swiftly by friendly wait staff.
- It's absolutely incredible to be able to go out to a delicious breakfast when you have to eat gluten free! Yes, it was pricey for coffee, French toast bacon and eggs, but I am accustomed to paying more for gluten free foods. There's … More a notice on their menu that they can prepare just about everything on the menu gluten free, just ask your server. And the server mentioned that if you are particularly sensitive, they can put foil under your bread on the grill or put it under the broiler to prevent cross contamination. It's worth it to know you are safe to eat somewhere when someone else is preparing your food.
- I Love Colony. It's not fancy, but the food is always on point & last nigt/this morning's service was amazing! She took care of several tables with 5-6 college kids, plus us & another couple
- Consistently great service, & spectacular meals. A Wallingford legendary icon!
- Great food! Wonderful service! Thank you Donna!
- Good food, great atmosphere, top notch service. Diner food with a home cooked feel. The staff is always friendly, and if you're not a regular, they will make you feel like one pretty quickly. We go there, often for the chicken soup, … More which is not from a can. Hope you enjoy it.
#johnscapes #picsfromthejohn - First time here, and this diner has a huge menu with lots of choices! Breakfast all day, of course, but great wraps, sandwiches and burgers! We had their Spanakopita and salad, a Caprese panini and fries. Big portions, good flavor and … More the best thing was our server, Donna! OMG! She was so professional, friendly, attentive and competent she made this meal even better! Recommended to all!
