| - I have been to all of the "Pamela's" diners in the Pittsburgh area, and this one is HANDS DOWN the absolute best. Once you eat here, you will never want to eat at the Pamela's in Oakland, The Strip, or Squirrel Hill ever again.
I dont know what it is about this place, but the food served at this Pamela's is exponentially better than the food served at other Pamela's (particularly Oakland's location - no watered-down coffee or rubbery eggs here!). The portions are huge, food comes out hot, and the coffee is strong. What else could you possibly need?!
The other thing I love about this location is that they include their famous lyonnaise potatoes with their "Big Lincoln" breakfast special, which is essentially the "Morning After" special at the Oakland Pamela's, which doesn't include the potatoes. I know this is minor but I hated having to always pay for side of potatoes (because who can leave Pamela's without having a taste of those!?). Everything here is fantastic: lunch specials, pancakes, omelets etc. Never have had one thing here that wasn't on point.
This location is larger and open (not as cramped as some of the other locations), housed inside of the old Lincoln Pharmacy in Millvale. Tall ceilings, a whole wall of windows and the old soda fountain at the front of the diner make for a fun and unique atmosphere.
Of course there is always "the wait" if you are going for any weekend morning breakfast or brunch, but with Pamela's that's to be expected. No big deal. Tables turn fast here and we once went to this location with over 10 people in our party on a Sunday morning and waited only about 40 minutes. The other good thing about this location is that there is room to stand in line in the pharmacy..you can buy old school candy, knick knacks, and cheesy Pittsburgh themed gifts. Its not a bad wait at all.
Be sure to give this location a try and put it to the test of the other Pamela's in the area, you wont be disappointed!
