I've eaten at Dick's Diner a handful of times - mostly for breakfast. I grew up working in diners on the other side of PA so I have a soft spot for a good diner-y breakfast.
My most recent visit here was no exception. Eggs over easy, sausage links and hashbrowns...mmmhmmm. Though my dining companion urged me to get the regular homefries, I opted for the hashbrowns and was not disappointed! Hot, crisp and a bit greasy - just perfect, really.
Dick's is apparently also well-known for their pies. While I had no room left for dessert, my dining companions did and this time, my friend let me have a bite - unlike our breakfast the previous day at Pamela's. The pie was delicious - buttery, flaky crust protecting a delicious fresh fruit filling. Oh yeah...gluttony at its finest.
The servers here are very friendly and treat you like a regular (even if you're just an out-of-town visitor!). No doubt Dick's will continue to be a breakfast destination spot every time I visit my friends in Pittsburgh.
