Phoenicia Diner
A 1962 railroad-style diner serving all-day breakfast with local ingredients. Nearly every Catskills food guide mentions it.
The diner sits along Route 28, just south of the village of Phoenicia. It is a 1962 dining car moved from New Jersey in the 1980s. The menu makes heavy use of local ingredients: the corned beef is cured in-house, and desserts are baked on site. The Infatuation recommends it for breakfast, and signature items include pancakes, corned beef skillet, and the Catskills po'boy sandwich. Reservations are not accepted, so it's first come, first seated. On summer weekends, arrive before 9 a.m. Expect to spend about US$20–30 per person. It is accessible by car only, with a parking lot outside.
Opening hours
