I find that "old diners" always have the best breakfast anywhere. _________________

How about around here, any thing that good?
Never go to that freaking Denny's , while they have a 3.99 or 4.99, what ever, you get 2 eggs, a few pieces of link sausage, and a few pieces of bacon for that price.
However if you want coffee, or toast, add about four bucks each to that special.
Won't mention which one here in Washington, but do not use the bathroom before eating, or after either I suppose. |

Its a little different vein from the greasy spoon type stuff, but they opened a new First Watch in the same complex as the GIANT Eagle in Robinson. They do breakfast/brunch/lunch 7 days a week but are only open til 1 or 2, so its probably a weekend only trip for you washpa folks. They do some stuff geared towards the healthy crowd in all three menu areas, but they have your classics covered too; coffee, bacon, sausage, pancakes, waffles, french toast, bagels, grits, oatmeal, eggs etc. If you're in the area, check them out. Always very tasty. _________________ The end is nigh! OR forums die APRIL 1. Don't lose contact! Join the forums at bogsource.com now! |

If you're ever on the North Side of Pgh, check out Lindo's. Its the bomb diggity, and cheaper than cheap. I highly recommend any breakfast that begins with "Greek".
Its across from that old church near the Seven Eleven / Subway / McDonalds / Wendys area... up the hill from Heinze Field. _________________

I know its supposed to be THE giant eagle, but I refer to the one in Robinson as the GIANT eagle because its approximately 7.89 million times larger than other giant eagles. If other giant eagles are star destroyers, this giant eagle is the death star. _________________ The end is nigh! OR forums die APRIL 1. Don't lose contact! Join the forums at bogsource.com now! |

Yeah, its not Denny's or IHOP cheap, but you can get a belgian waffle, two eggs and bacon for 8 bucks. The drinks are a little pricey; 2 bucks for a glass of OJ? But the coffee is bottomless.
...that sounds sexual. _________________ The end is nigh! OR forums die APRIL 1. Don't lose contact! Join the forums at bogsource.com now! |

Cy, Chitty Denny's is over 8 bucks after you buy you toast and coffee.
Is there an IHOP near Washington?

I don't know, I don't actively look for IHOP, but there might be. _________________ The end is nigh! OR forums die APRIL 1. Don't lose contact! Join the forums at bogsource.com now! |

No, there's a brand new IHOP in Uniontown on Route 40 before the mall. Right next to a Sonic. _________________ -amom
