I've been away from Pittsburgh for almost 19 years and was back for a day. I was glad to see this place was still around. They were great for breakfast back then and they still are!

This 'cash only diner' is the best description. The food is served hot and fast. The coffee is excellent unlike most diners. They need to be a bit more attentive on bringing refills. Breakfast is the meal we came for. Excellent French toast with crispy well done thick cut bacon, just the way we like it. The omelets are amazing as well. The pancakes, are 'crepe' style and a bit much for the picky teenager. Short stack and pancake do not fit the description of the traditional diner, but with that said they are light, fluffy and very tasty. I will be back next time I am in Shadyside.

This is a must stop for breakfast when you go to the strip. Good food, good service, good parking. Xoxo

Staying nearby, we had breakfast here 3 mornings in a row. They prepare delicious crepe pancakes served plain or with fruit. So many sweet and hearty options to choose from. Side of eggs was rich and buttery. Coffee is basic diner black. Service was especially fast and friendly.

This Pamela's makes the best breakfast. I used to order bacon now I have tried the carved ham . OMG!
