Mt. Kisco Diner

Where To Eat In Northern Westchester

"Like a great Disney movie, Mt Kisco Diner works on two levels. During the weekdays, it’s a classic local diner that serves standards like oversized omelettes and good-enough coffee, with just the right blend of friendly-yet-disinterested service. On the weekend, it becomes a social media magnet, drawing crowds of tweens and teens with milkshakes that belong on competition shows and mashed-up concoctions that sound like a regular menu got dropped into a centrifuge. But the gimmicky stuff actually tastes good—we’re looking at you, chicken alfredo tacos. So if you want old-fashioned french toast and quiet conversation, come for breakfast. But if you are (or gave birth to) someone who needs to make a TikTok about the finer points of Fruity Pebble Pancakes, this is the prime-time spot for you." - mike wasserman
