Blueberry Hill is a classic Vegas diner for a reason. While popular with the post-church Sunday crowd, the diner is open 24 hours for breakfast any time of the day. Sure, you could order from its lunch and dinner menu, but go for the pancakes, omelets, or chicken and waffles.

While this diner really picks up around 11 a.m. for the business lunch crowd, you can visit at any time for eggs or sandwiches. Open since the ‘80s, spend some time perusing the photos and newspaper clippings that line the walls.

Vickie's Diner

Vickie’s uncle, Pete Kelesis, is rumored to have opened the first diner in Vegas many years ago. The namesake Vickie has since relocated the diner to the Commercial Center on Sahara Avenue, but it still serves specialties like chicken-fried steak made fresh in-house daily, burgers, 1-pound ham steaks, and old-fashioned liver and onions.

Peppermill Restaurant and Fireside Lounge

Copy Link

The preeminent Las Vegas diner, the Peppermill, is Vegas glitz at its best. The interior is decked in all things neon, velvet, and glass. But the food is equally breathtaking. Pancakes come laden with chunks of fruit. Omelets flop over the borders of the plate. And burgers are piled high with cheese, bacon, onions, and house-made sauce. After eating, slide into the Fireside lounge for vibey post-meal drinks.

Copy Link

This colorful and candy-coated diner on the Las Vegas Strip celebrates classic diner culture with greasy spoon food that is jazzed up with sprinkles and cotton candy. Go for Fruity Pebbles French toast and cotton candy pancakes or more traditional with cheeseburgers and biscuits and gravy.
