South Street Diner

One of the last true 24 hour diners in Boston and is a blast from the past. They serve everything, from authentic root beer floats to bold cups of Joe. Try the Boston Cream Pancakes !

Like something out of a movie , drunk party girls, colorful patrons, they make you sit on the stools of small parties. Burgers good, beer on tap .

(Best of Boston 2013-DINER) Improper Bostonian says, "It has all the requisite elements for a retro diner : neon lighting, swivel stools lining the counter and, for $2, a bottomless cup of coffee ."

Enjoyed our breakfast and the conversations. If you crave a real breakfast near downtown, it’s worth a walk to.

The Boston Creme pancakes are awesome !!! The homemade apple pie is the best I have ever had!

Don't miss the Lobster Festival . You get a delicious lobster , chowder and dessert all for $10!! ????

The 4-egg omelette with avocado and veggies - so good! Mom had steak and eggs and loved it. Home fries included and tasty too.

They have a bunless burger option for gluten-free diets

Richard Wilk, an anthropologist at Indiana University , says part of the appeal of late-night dining comes from the appeal of familiarity, and this spot has it in spades. Read more

Eggs Benedict with lobster was amazing! The potatoes they serve on the side were delicious. Highly recommended.

This is the best late night spot in Boston my buddy Sol does it right. Great food awesome people = Happy Face!!

It's really cool to eat vegetarians food in classic old-school American diner .

Great late night spot , can get crowded after 2 am, no nonsense, not good for you, but good food

Voted "Best Late-Night Restaurant " by @BostonPhoenix readers in 2012! Also serving wine and beer til 1 am. Thereafter: get a steak and a milkshake . Read more

French toast and omelet with onion and cheese is the best. highly recommended ????

Get the "diner special" for breakfast . 3 eggs , french toast , bacon , hash browns . It's worth the coronary.

If you're really nice to the waitress she will make you mimosas before they start serving alcohol and give you banana bread .

Amazing late night food! Try the homemade apple pie with ice cream . You can't go wrong!

Quoth the Mayor: "I like the steak and eggs in the morning. That always gets me going. The coffee 's okay. It's nice that they serve beer late at night. This place is the classic." Read more

Go to the South Street Diner and snag a spot at the counter. Order yourself a veggie burger and an order of onion rings . Put some coins in the jukebox and play Blue Travelers's "The Hook." Smile.

I could die happy after eating the Lobster Eggs Benedict. Cannot recommend enough.

Great atmosphere. You should experience Johnny's friendly charm on Saturday mornings. He makes you feel special & like u belong here even if you're from out of town .

Supreme omelette with sausage . Mmm. Friendly and everything you'd expect from a diner .

It's probably great if you are drunk and need diner food . As a bus ride food, it wasn't the best idea.

Always leave room for the grilled banana bread .

Awesome diner ! Good food, good beer , nice waiters .. Go give it a try!

I ordered the supreme omelet and the waitress only got one ingredient right. No water until the end, she asked us to pay right when she set down the wrong food so she could leave.No ketchup or syrup .

Dirty diner goodness. The diner breakfast special is the way to go.

your only late night option - get the Greek chicken wrap or grilled cheese

Had the blueberry pancakes . Delicious and fast service !

The French toast with fresh strawberries is to die for

Yummy food at 2:00am although a little bland even when your slightly drunk.

The chicken sandwich is basically just three dry grilled chicken fingers on a bun . The pancakes are good though. I wouldn't get anything by breakfast here again.

It has an old diner feel, staff seemed a little grumpy like they didn't want to be there and one of them was having a mild argument with a male inside the diner . I wouldn't go here again. Food average

Great breakfast menu !

Open 24 hours . Perfect destination for the conclusion of all-nighter's in college. Simply diner food in a simple pleasures atmosphere.

Try the lobster omelette . You will not be disappointed.

Boston creme pancakes ! Lobster omelettes ! Loved it.

Try the Egg White Lobster Omelette - (via @Foodspotting)

Yummy. Thru know how to make fiber good good and greasy and sinfully wonderful.

South Street Diner is open all night and they reserve tables from 1am until - 5am for parties of three or more (call 617-350-0028 to reserve ).

Love the feel and the atmosphere but the wait staff is less than pleasant and barely attentive.

Starting August 1st, if you are the mayor, you will receive a choice of a South street diner mug, backpack, travel thermos, or a tote bag. One Mayor per week. Please show us on your smartphone. Read more

Only a few places open 24 hours and Sol is awesome! Friendly staff and good eats.

Owner operator really cares about people. It is just how it should be; the quintessential diner .

Go to South Street Diner really late. Drink some bad diner coffee and eat some cheesy fries . You will have an upset stomach, but you will have a great time.
