Carl's Oxford Diner

Finally stopped here for breakfast. Very good! We had their most popular plate, the shaved steak omelet! Could have had a little more cheese. I just love a cheesey omelet. It was huge and I'll have breakfast again tomorrow. The service was excellent and food came out hot and quickly. Our wait staff was very attentive and meet every expectation. We'll be back again soon. This is a great breakfast nook.

Absolutely loved my experience at Carl's! The food was not just plentiful, but it was also incredibly delicious. I can confidently say that I will be returning. The atmosphere was also warm and inviting, and the staff treated everyone like family. If you’re looking for a place to enjoy some amazing food, this is the spot!!

Had an amazing time there as usual. They made me feel so special! Gave me chocolate chips and whipped cream for my mocha because they overheard us speaking about it. Had amazing service and food! I will always come again!

First and foremost the atmosphere was outstanding. Your greeted by the staff, who are such lovely people. When I ordered my food I was surprised at the portion, it was more than enough for my self and a small army. All this to say yo should definitely make it to this little gem and have an awesome time.

​5 Stars Huge shoutout to the team at Carl’s Diner. While everyone else was hunkered down during the storm, they stayed open to make sure the plow drivers and emergency crews were fed and taken care of. There is nothing like a home-cooked meal when you’ve been out on the roads all day. Thank you for being there for the community when we needed it most!

We had breakfast there. The food was outstanding!!! I had breakfast for 2 days later. So much food! We took an hour drive just to get there. We were not disappointed.

Went to Carl's Oxford Diner with two other hungry diners ~ 8:00 am. It's a nice old fashioned diner which I love. There is seating in the front as well as seating in the back. For breakfast the following was ordered Coffee ( of course) Strawberry pancakes with side order of bacon Shaved Steak and Cheese omelet with bacon and home fries Scrambled eggs with bacon and home fries The portions as you see in the pictures are huge. The quality of the food is great. Way too much to eat at one sitting and take home food containers were needed. Great place, great breakfast and great service. I would highly recommend this place.

This is a basic, cosy diner that serves good food. It looks small but there are tables/booths at the back. The food is delicious and the portion is big. We had pancakes and bacon, and steak and cheese omelette, and they were all really good. We have been back a few times and food was good every time 😊 Corn beef hash was good, and so as the biscuits and gravy!

My friends and I found this place while traveling. Amazing experience!!! The BIGGEST omelette I have ever had! Everything we ate was top tier. Waffle, Shaved Steak Omelette etc. The staff were extremely friendly and gave us a brief history of the place. This old school diner experience is very rare these days. This place checks every box. Highly recommend.

Great food good portions not a bad price service was great need more characters to post

Everything went well service the food was fantastic unique restaurant ever been into The presentation of the bacon and eggs was amazing nine pieces of bacon

Carl's is a really great spot to go to. It's a classic small diner so I would recommend to plan accordingly if you're looking to grab a seat. The servers are very welcoming and kind. The food portions come in a fairly large size and is absolutely delicious. I got the breakfast sandwich and it was so good! If you're in Oxford and looking for a spot to grab a bite, this is the place for you!

Good things happen when you venture past the fast food chains and go a a couple miles in from I-390. Sure, this place isn't brand spanking new but, it is clean and well worth any wait you might have. Make a new friend, sit at the counter, and be prepared for omelets that are as big as the plate. Be sure to bring cash and be nice to the team, they are hustling.

This is my fav spot. Great food and a friendly staff. I leave feeling 'taken care of' which is so nice in today's world. Thanks Colleen!!

Be prepared to eat! They serve you very large portions! I always like getting breakfast on my way to work!

This place is the pinnacle of breakfast excellence. I've been coming here with my brothers and parents since I was a kid in the 90's and it has never disappointed. Paul, Tim, Billy and the staff are friendly, funny and work very quickly. The staff here sets the bar for diner culture in America. You owe it to yourself to stop in. Oh and the portions are without a shadow of a doubt, bigger than your hopes and dreams. Try the blueberry pancakes.

Been enjoying Carl's since the 1960's. No place better; food, service, ambience, everything!

If you love classic diners and their typical fare, this place is for you! At busy times there'll be a wait and seating is crowded at best. We ate here years ago and loved it. Recently we went back and the food just didn't make up for the wait. Worth a try for sure, but with realistic expectations.

Wow I love Carls. All my friends love carls. When anyone brings up carls the first response is I love carls. The chefs and host were extreme nice. The food was massive. 10/10 experience. Very very good waffle with strawberries and whip cream. Surpassed my expectations. 100% will be back.

Went here after several friends were surprised we have lived in the area for several years and never ate there. We looked them up and heard about the generous portions. My wife and I ordered omelettes. The plates had heaping loads of home fries, omelettes were huge. Coffee was a great diner coffee. Serve staff was excellent. It's a small car of a dinner. Seats at the bar or four table with high bar tables. There's a few reminders that you're in an old train car. Loved it. Has a great hometown vibe. Doors slide open like its heritage as a train car.

Classic American diner in Oxford Mass. HUGE portions that are tasty and hot off the grill which is right in front of you if you sit at the counter. Fast and friendly service. You might need to wait for a table or seat at the counter as this place is tiny. But worth the wait. Ask for a to go box when you order. You are going to need it.

This place is great! If you like huge and I mean huge portions this is where to go! It's small and on the weekends be prepared to wait a bit. It's a very old diner with a small addition off the back. The menu is like the portions... lots to choose from. I had a ham western( you can also get a kielbasa western) with potatoes and toast I dare you to finish it!

Local whose been going here since I was a kid. The portions are really what everyone goes for, the food used to be very good too but as of late just doesn't taste as good. The pastrami omelette was my go to with a side of bacon or sausage. Highly recommend pancakes and bacon too. Great diner feel and family restaurant still love it.

The food here is great. It's always perfect and the staff is great! My father used to eat there like once a week because he loved it. My daughter even picks up food from there and it's always done just right.

We stop at Carl's every time we make the trip from Long Island to Massachusetts. We love to sit at the counter and chat with the staff. Even when they are busy they take the time to treat you as a guest. The food is amazing and portions are HUGE. If you haven't tried this place yet you are missing out!

Carl's Oxford Diner is must if you are looking for a breakfast spot in Oxford. I always get 3 eggs with home fries with a side of bacon and the pancakes are pretty good as well. Although the wait time can be long, the food is served quickly. My family loves the big portions and they're not shy about giving you extra meat. Trust me you will need a light lunch afterwards.

Today I had one of the best cheeseburgers I've ever eaten, with a few home fries included to round out my lunch. Excellent service and value.

I have been eating at Carl's Oxford Diner for about 10 years now with my sister and her family. I live about 1 1/2 hour away but the drive is definitely worth my stomach getting happy with the food. My favorite is the bacon (whole pound) eggs (3 of them) and potatoes. Usually take some of it home because just can't eat it all. The food quality, quantity, services, and atmosphere is also the greatest. You will never go out of this place hungry and probably would skip your next meal. I can't say enough about this place cause it is awesome and glad my nephew told me about this place. If there was one thing to improve upon it would be to expand the building for more seating. I love this place.

Good food and service but but often crowded. Serving size always guarantees leftovers.

Service is great! Food is pretty good just wish the home fries were cooked a little more than what they are. STEAK TIPS ARE AMAZING!

Great portion sizes and prices. Food is pretty good, but there is very limited seating and the bathroom is sort of outside in a separate area, which is a little strange. Everyone that works there is nice and welcoming though and for the value, I have gone back. Just wish there was more seating and more staff to turn tables more quickly.

Awesome!Awesome! This is where the locals and the non locals come and like it a lot. Diners ,drive inns and dives my version! Lol this place is a must restaurant to experience! If you leave this place hungry you got some serious issues! Lol . There is more seating in the back so don't be discouraged if looks full. Get in there! Trust me! This diner is unique and Rocks! By the way this is another real time review and I'm enjoying it to the Max! Warning they are going to keep bringing you delicious food so enjoy! My fellow foodies,eat, love and give all the Glory to God for he is Awesome and he loves us all!

Good food. Good portions. I recommend it. Service isn't perfect but you aren't paying for that. It's good enough. Just eat and enjoy. You won't leave hungry.

Haven't been here for several years as I moved out of the area. Still the same most amazing breakfast place. You won't leave hungry. Same formula high quality products huge portions awesome friendly service! The special Billy's biscuits and gravy was so awesome grilled biscuits big chunks of sausage in the homemade gravy. I took my daughter here it's her new favorite place! I had the special pastrami omelette. Was bigger than my plate! By far my most favorite breakfast place! They were also so nice to give us a sample of the lunch special Homemade American chop suey. Was fresh and amazingly delicious. Looking for my next trip to Oxford! Keep up the great work!

Great breakfast, huge portions, friendly people, good price. Will stop again when driving through. In fact, I will go out of my way to go here again.

Guys cooking n waiting tables Friendly Fast Fun Food portions huge Prices reasonable Definitely coming back

My fiancee and I stopped here for breakfast, and were less than impressed. They do give gigantic portions, though the food was average in quality. We both liked the coffee but they should consider serving it in larger mugs, since they don't have the time nor patience to refill it. Our main complaint was the rudeness of our server "Billy". He would just throw our food in front of us, only asking once if we wanted more coffee. I politely asked if they took credit cards; his response was an disgusted "Visa or Mastercard, no other weird s---!" When I asked for a third cup of coffee I only had a minute to drink it before he told us with frustrated impatience "other customers are waiting for a table", so we felt pressured to leave.

I love Carl's! Super casual ambiance but the service is great! You GET SO MUCH FOOD with your order! You will never leave there hungry. It's a great diner that always stays busy! I highly recommend it, especially if you're looking for a place where you get a lot tons of value for the money you spend! Highly recommend them!

All I have to say about Carl's is the best in the area! Money and portion wise it's unbeatable! Soooo delicious!! A must stop if your hungry and in the Oxford area!

Excellent food and friendly staff. We highly recommend! Great ambiance. Corned beef hash was top notch!!!!!

Carl's diner is your typical local diner that is always popular on the weekends. It's cheap and they give you MASSIVE portions. I enjoyed my food but I would have preferred a more seasoning on the corned beef hash and potatoes. I do, however, love the portion of bacon they give you. When you walk in, there is seating in the back. You can usually find street parking on the road it's on. Be patient and your wait will be rewarded with plenty of food.

Cute little diner. Very friendly staff. Food was delicious. Portions were very generous.

Great food, huge portions, and nice helpful staff. It's very popular on the weekends during the nicer weather so be prepared to wait a little bit.

Carl's Has been a must stop breakfast satisfaction spot for decades. Ham,bacon, sausage OH MY

Being in this pandemic, we've gone no where. We decided to go for a walk and came upon Carl's with there cute little tables for 2 outside - spaced accordingly. We decided to sit a spell and have us some breakfast. We took our seats and the masked waitress arrived. We got a western omelet, home fries, toast, a bagel with cream cheese and bacon along with delicious coffee. Best place, best food, great waitress !!

Epic So Good Easy Parking "Souper Special" Italian Wedding Soup x Bacon Cheeseburger Best Grilled Tomato x Cheese Of My Wife's Life Dope Atmosphere Loved It We'll Be Back Wish I Lived Closer Real Good Iced Coffee Really Liked The Potatoes Too

The food is ok but they give you WAYY to much food and if you get fruit in your pancake/waffle they put on top of it but the server we had was very nice.

World Famous Carl's Oxford Diner. Worth the trip in every way! It's not just portion sizes which are incredible. It's not just quality comfort food. It's not just service with a wink and a smile. It's not just great diner ambiance. Its all those things and more! The Oxford Diner never disappoints!

Want a big breakfast? This is the place for you. Biggest breakfast I've seen. Everything is rich with favor. Little trolly car, so not that much room so there's usually a wait, but worth it

Abbondanza. 2 eggs, but there are 3 under the ham. Real ham and real home fries. You don't go home hungry from here. When I completed this they asked if I wanted more. Quality, Quantity and Service are Excellent.

The decor is outdated and a little quirky, but the food is great and the staff is awesome. Also pro tip bring your stretchy pants because the portion size is enormous. Love this place.

This diner is very small but the dishes they serve are enormous. We came here on a Saturday morning. Waited about a half hour for a table. My husband ordered steak tips and eggs with home fries. We got a side of bacon. Also ordered pancakes. I got a western omelet. The portion sizes are out of this world. I'll also tell you the bacon they serve is some of the best bacon I've ever had. Not greasy at all and very crunchy and delicious. The steak tips are amazing too. Can't wait to come back. Definitely worth the wait in line.

All the amazing ratings and reviews drew me to this diner. However, I was let down by the service and food. The diner is extremely small. I sat at the high top tables (there's three high top tables) and the rest is a bar section. I ordered two eggs with homefries and another order of two eggs with bacon and homefries. The patrons seated at the bar got their food within 5 - 10 minutes. I waited 20 minutes for the food to arrive. That might not seem like a long wait to most but breakfast food usually comes out extremely fast. The food tasted average and nothing stood out to me. I most likely won't stop by even if I was traveling by or in the area.

Cheap eats with massive portions. This is my all time favorite place for bacon, thick an crispy. Make sure you go hungry.

I love the food at Carl's my mom and dad has been eating her for 6 years now I just got a chance to try and doing them although I didn't get the position I would totally recommend anybody eat at Carl's diner in Oxford ma it's a beautiful place and the people that work there treat you like you are their family thank you Carlos diner and family for the best experience that I have had.

Good 'ol classic diner. This is a must for us every time we visit my husbands hometown. Love it.

Incredibly large amount of food but food and experience were very good! Overall definitely worth the price
