Best Diners in Oklahoma

"Conveniently located in Midtown right on Hudson Avenue, this cozy coffee shop serves weekday breakfast lunch—with brunch on the weekends—as well as fuels all your coffee needs, no matter the time of day. The vegan chocolate chip cookies are on a whole level of their own and are kid-tested and -approved. Best for: breakfast with the whole family."

"Lots of people begin their days by zipping through coffee shops. Nothing wrong with wanting a dose of delicious, nutritious caffeine to kickstart your morning, right?. Elemental’s lattes, cortados and cold brews are among the metro’s very best, but even if you don’t drink coffee, it’s a killer first stop on your daily travels."

"Along with Mexican food, breakfast was the other prominent theme in new restaurants this year. Sharing the same property as Revolución, Sunnyside Diner offers old-timey breakfast fare like pancakes, omelets, corned beef hash, hearty sandwiches in meatloaf, brisket, or hot beef daily. Since owners Shannon Roper and Aly Branstetter opened the doors in the spring, the retro-chic dining room has remained busy."

"Stop at the Sunnyside Diner, where it’s always time for Sunday morning breakfast in Oklahoma City. Breakfast is served all day, along with their equally tasty brunch and lunch menu. Sunnyside has three locations to choose from for some of the best breakfast in downtown OKC: 916 NW 6th Street, 824 SW 89th Street, and 9148 N MacArthur Blvd."

"Chef Henry Boudreaux is a big believer in extremely fresh, locally sourced ingredients – just ask him – which makes Plaza District restaurant Aurora a natural choice for those eating healthy: salads, fresh fruit yogurt bowl, avocado toast, that sort of thing. However, the open faced BLT is startlingly good thanks to its zing of pesto aioli, and if you’re looking to treat yourself, the sourdough French toast with crème Anglaise and mixed berries is pure, sweet perfection on a plate. 1704 NW 16th, OKC -NV"

"What is it: A relatively new brunch fixture in the Plaza District that boasts an inventive menu and the Instagrammable decor to match. Why go: Whether you’re looking for a spot to nurse your hangover or a quaint place to take your grandma for lunch, this lovely little joint is the place to be. Order the hearty buttermilk pancakes with a side of homemade thyme biscuits to soak up last night’s liquids or, if you're trying to be good, sample the savory lentil hummus bowl."

"Over in Classen Ten Penn, check out Aurora, which has earned 4.5 stars out of 261 reviews on Yelp. You can find the breakfast and brunch cafe at 1704 N.W."

"59th St. in I-240 Corridor, the traditional American diner is the highest-rated economically-pleasing restaurant in Oklahoma City, boasting 4.5 stars out of 87 reviews on Yelp. Check out breakfast, lunch and dinner options at Sherri's. Specials include chicken stir fry with broccoli, cauliflower, zucchini, onions and carrots; the veggie platter served with mashed potatoes and gravy; and the hot beef open face sandwich covered in potatoes and gravy."

"Two English muffins, a thick slab of ham, perfectly poached eggs and a thick coating of practically the Platonic ideal of Hollandaise sauce. When it’s executed this well, how could you improve on an all-time great?. (That question was rhetorical, but in the interests of complete reporting you can also get it Chinook-style, with salmon patties instead of ham.)"

"Breakfast in OKC wouldn’t be complete without a cozy breakfast diner that provides a Mexican twist to the menu. At Classen Grill, the outside may not look like much, but the inside is clean with friendly staff and delicious breakfast options. Be sure to try their fresh-squeezed orange juice or a mimosa."

"The second restaurant from Szechuan Bistro owners Leo and Sophia Chen, Ding expands upon its sister restaurant’s menu from mainland China. Ding offers plenty of Chinese favorites to the Southern Nazarene University crowd in Bethany, plus a full sushi bar and teppanyaki dining room.

"The food is amazing and I got the kitchen sink Burger, absolute perfection. The atmosphere is really nice and they have a very spacious patio as well."

"A post shared by Aloft OKC Downtown-Bricktown (@aloftokcdowntown) on Oct 23, 2019 at 3:06pm PDT. Located atop the Aloft Hotel in Downtown Oklahoma, W XYZ Bar & Grille is a fancy yet relaxed place to hang out with your group of friends. They have a wide variety of great drinks to choose from, but what makes their bar stand out is the service."

"Gigi's Cupcakes, a bakery that offers cupcakes and desserts, is another go-to, with four stars out of 53 Yelp reviews. Head over to 14101 N. May Ave., Suite 104, to see for yourself."
