Trip's Diner

St. Petersburg & Tampa

Breakfast all day.
Everything else too.

Two kitchens, one menu, and the kind of plate you go back for. Shrimp and grits under a cracked egg, a pancake the size of a hubcap.

Since 2012

Named for three, all at once.

Gordon and Louise Stevenson named the diner after their triplets, Libby, Will and John. That is the LWJ on the sign, and it is why this has never been a chain.

Not-too-fancy, by design. Breakfast all day, plus salads, sandwiches, meatloaf, pasta and chicken. Bring the kids.

In Their Words

What our customers are saying

Modern diner with old-fashioned quality and service. The omelets were fluffy and well shaped, done just right, and generously sized. The bacon was nicely browned, thick, and still had just the right degree of chewiness, not hard. SERVICE was with a smile and intelligent.

I consider myself a bit of a breakfast connoisseur and I am pleased to say that yelp didn't let me down. I basically googled best breakfast in the area and this came up. Ended up taking a 30 min drive from the beach to see what all the buzz was about!

Read some good reviews, so decided to check out Trip's Diner for breakfast a couple weeks ago. It's now my go-to spot for great diner food, in a very clean, friendly setting. The pancakes and french toast are amazing!!! Will be back frequently
