Karen's Diner

"From the outside, Karen’s is a pretty unassuming place. The exterior is simple and yet on any given morning, the parking lot is always packed and today, I finally found out why. The whole building is charming. Walking in you kind of feel like you entered into an old school kind of diner situation. Even on a crowded day the restaurant feels spacious and you don’t get the “congested,” noisy feeling of your typical small town restaurant. While I wasn’t a fan of the gray interior, there’s great artwork on the walls and a lot of natural light brightening everything up. Service was speedy and it was always relatively easy to find someone to top off your coffee or grab what you needed. The prices at Karen’s are great! I ordered the Polish Special for $10.50, I believe, and a corn muffin. The Polish Special came with kielbasa, two eggs, toast, and home fries. Everything was delicious, especially the corn muffin—definitely one of the best I’ve had. On a slightly negative note, I felt like the kielbasa could have been a little crispy and I was a little put off by how the coffee was served in paper cups. All things considered though, given the great atmosphere, I’m looking forward to making this a regular spot for a weekend meal."

"Good food, still great prices!"

"Pawling High School monthly reunion. A large group was served quickly and friendly waiters & waitress."

"I come to Karen's a lot. Almost once a week with the wife. Sometimes 2 times a week. Food always taste fresh and i always get the meatloaf and eggs (meatloaf is amazing). Pancakes are cooked well and fluffy and eggs are soft and delicious. Place is usually packed on the weekend so i tend to go on a weekday where it is less busy. If you never been i recommend giving their food a try. My wife got the chicken cutlet sandwich to go. Gotta try their lunch food like burgers as i only had their breakfast food, but i hear burgers are good as well."

"Excellent. Had blueberry pancakes with ham, wife had banana pancakes with bacon. A farout Easter/ Happy Birthday breakfast. Service, parking, seating, all around atmosphere was groovy like the tasty food. Pretty waitresses too, although my sweetheart is the best."
