Freight Street Grill: Reviews & Ratings
This is definitely an old style diner. My wife had delicious blueberry pancakes, and I had eggs with hashbrowns sausage toast... The service was prompt and friendly. The food was delicious. We have now gone back two more times. Did I mention the prices are more than reasonable?
That was a good breakfast. Plenty of food and reasonable prices. Excellent waitress. Great options. Fast service.
Freight Street Grille is a one-stop-shop for all your breakfast lunch and dinner needs! The breakfast menu is so large it could put regular diners to shame. The food is made fresh and fast and the customer service is fantastic. They are even open 24 hours. This place is one of my weekly go-tos for an awesome lunch. The triple decker sandwiches are an excellent choice as well as the array of chicken sandwiches as well. Freight Street Grill is open 24/7 and is available for delivery via Uber Eats. Definitely check this place out!
2.26.23 This is one of my favorite breakfast places to eat in Waterbury area when I come to this area. It's probably on my top 3 list of all time. This unassuming spot is one of those proverbial hidden gems in the city of Waterbury. This breakfast place has been here for over 60 years. The same building. Years ago, for years upon years it used to be called Tower Grill with different owners than the present owners. These owners are doing the previous legend proud by still dishing out great food. They serve breakfast and lunch. You can get breakfast during lunchtime without an issue. Service is usually quick for the most part. Every now and again you end up with a slight delay with your food if you happen to hit em during one of their peak eating times. Other than that it's quick service. The staff are always pleasant. Sometimes more than others. I only mention it because during those peak times with heavier volume they're in the zone and intensely concentrating on getting your order correct and going on to the next guests. No problem at all with that. I can say that I've never had an issue with them getting our orders incorrect. All of the food is always fresh. They don't skimp on the quality or quantity of their food while still doing portion control so that they can make a profit & stay in business. This spot is a must try for those who haven't been here yet. Their private lot make for easy parking. The restaurant is always very clean. Their coffee is very good. My favorite items are their omelettes. My all time fav is their corned beef hash omelette with cheese. To die for. It's so good. Their Belgium waffles are great too. Almost forgot to mention about their home fries. They're great also. Their sausage links are better than most places. They're not those skinny minny thin ones. They're little fatties (sausage links). So tasty :-) But just about anything you try you'll enjoy depending on your likes & preferences.
Perfect grille for the hardworking women and men in the area. Food is great and plenty. Clean and bustling, friendly. Go...and get some. Start with breakfast !! Then write a review
Came in for breakfast with my grandparents as it's their weekend tradition. I went along with their lead of the special. The most memorable part: the amazing link sausage, the Italian toast and the option to get fruit if you want instead of hashbrowns! The coffee was always flowing and the service is truly great. You can't beat that price either! Such a great spot!
This place is newly renovated, looks very nice and clean. The place is busy but the food is nice! Hubby and I have been here twice and are pleased with the good!
"Dawn of a New Day" A lot of people were saddened by the closing of Tower Grill. It was assumed by some people that the building might be leveled due to the reconstruction of the highway and a landmark diner would become a mere memory. But not long after, the diner was taken over by new owners. A complete remodel of the inside was underway and soon after it was the dawn of a new day. The Freight Street Grill looks brand new inside. They have a huge menu, awesome staff and excellent food. I had three waitresses come over with fresh pots of coffee asking if I'd like a refill. That's great service. I had a special of the day. The New York Deli Omelette. Pastrami, corned beef and cheese omelette served with home fries and rye toast. DEEELICIOUS !!! My next visit I'd like to go for lunch so I can have the Patty Melt. Haven't had one in years.
