"Champ’s Diner is smack in the middle of Temple University’s campus. And because of this, you’d think it would be full of overflow from the Liacouras Center or the second-worst AMC Theater in town that’s across the street (yes, we ranked them). But this small corner spot is only open from 6:30am-2pm daily, so it’s more of a meetup for students cracking open an art book they can’t afford while downing a fruit-topped waffle. The daytime menu isn’t just surprisingly impressive breakfast sandwiches and western omelets; they have quality seafood—think peppery salmon cakes and shrimp—and egg platters for under $15. That’s a price tag that can come in handy, especially for undergrads who have more books to buy next week." - Candis R. McLean
