We are the self-professed BIGGEST FANS of Smokin' Little Diner in Lancaster NY. But I am sure that we are not alone in our devotion! This place lures us in like a Siren! It's a very unassuming little steel railway diner on Broadway near Transit Road. There's lots of parking in the rear parking lot of this adorable diner, and you smell the meat smoker when you step out of your vehicle. On this day, we stopped in at 11:30 am after a doctor's visit. If it weren't for appointments, we'd never get a meal "out". I try to get something different each time I stop in. Today I selected the Oink Moo Burger with Fire Berry BBQ and a heap of kettle chips. It arrived at our table like Mount Rushmore with a steak knife holding the monumental stack together. Oh boy! It was visually pleasing and I rushed to take my photo before I drooled all over the table. The brioche bun glistened in the sunshine coming in the window, and it barely covered two giant breaded onion rings! Next layer was a pile of pulled pork over a perfectly cooked beef patty and a slice of American cheese! The bbq sauce is one that I've enjoyed before: Fiery Berry Bbq. So delicious. I'm one happy person, but I know that I am consuming my entire day's worth in calories and carbs at this meal. My husband ordered the Meatloaf Stacker. It is a pile of tender, exquisitely seasoned homemade-style meatloaf over a pile of mashed potatoes, all balanced on a slab of sourdough and enrobed in ultra flavorful brown gravy. I had to sneak my fork across the table to sample that alluring plate. As with most dishes here, this menu choice also comes in a pulled pork or pulled chicken as well. Topped off with a cup of coffee, we're two well satisfied diners today! There is a very nice Kids menu for the little guys. The wait staff is ultra friendly and efficient! Don't delay! Come on down!

Food is absolutely delicious! Service is always good. It is a bit small, so suggest hitting it on more off hours, but it is clean and well maintained.

I really don't want to do a review because then people will find out about this hidden gem. They are the sweetest people, and no matter what you order, it tastes great. Food like your mom would cook. So good it'll make your tongue slap your brains out.Parking: The parking lot is limited, and I'm not sure how many spots there are.Kid-friendliness: This is definitely a family restaurant. There are kid choices, and I have seen plenty of kids in there.

Food was and is always great, same with the service from the waitresses that work, the only quarrel I have with my visit Tuesday March 12th 2024 was someone in the kitchen didn't use their brains, filled the restaurant up with a smell that was crazy strong, then when the waitress said something someone thought to cover the smell with bleach making the combination overbearing as hell. I was not happy, and was going to walk out but decided to stay against my better judgment because I'm stupid.

Excellent little diner. Had a great breakfast and I would recommend trying the BBQ Stinger Omelette special if it is on the menu. Enjoyed some home fries and pancakes as well. This is a very cool old style diner with amazing decor. Service was great and everything was prepared fresh.

Love, love, LOVE going to the Smokin Little Diner! We started going there last year and it quickly became a favorite spot for delicious comfort food, friendly people, and a nostalgic atmosphere. Their menu is packed with some of the tastiest food, with good sized portions and reasonable prices. We love the great variety of BBQ sauces, and the daily specials board always has lots to choose from. Some favorites are the fried bologna, the pot roast stacker, and the western omelette platter. And if you are looking for BEST plate of Mac & cheese in town, it’s here! Several kinds to choose from, but the regular Mac is incredible on its own. Have a milkshake with your dinner, or some homemade pie for desert! If you have not tried the Smokin Little Diner, you are missing out. You’ve got to stop in and see why this place is always packed!!Kid-friendliness: Lots of great options for kids. If your child just want a hot dog and Mac and cheese, they e got you covered. A milkshake? Done. Fries? Gotcha covered.

Super cute, very friendly staff. Solid barbecue, the pork belly Mac and cheese is to die for. Always a great pie selection, and I've yet to have a slice I didn't like!
