As good as you've heard!

This Pittsburgh gem has been featured on the Food Network’s Diners, Drive-ins and Dives, so if you haven’t been there you may have heard of it. A friend suggested we go for a late breakfast, and it was worth the trip. Arriving just around 10:30 am, we did not have to wait for a table, and received very prompt and courteous service. I chose LORI’S STUFFED RASBERRY FRENCH TOAST, complete with a side of bacon. This is one of the items that was featured on the show, and looked so good I had to try it for myself. It wasn’t what I expected, as it was individual slices of french toast with the filling in between (not “stuffed” in a traditional sense, you could say). Boy, it was good, though!! The raspberry component was excellent—not sure exactly what it was—it was pink, not red, so it was mixed with something. Yummy, none the less!

This will definitely call for a repeat visit to try some of the other menu favorites, like the Banana and the Pumpkin Pancakes.

Worth the stop!!

Detour! Make a point to make a stop at Dor-Stop

Typically put-off by storefront evangelization, both the advertisement of biblical quotes and the FoodNetwork stamp are usually sour notes in my consideration. That said, for a diner, this place is indeed outstanding. I love it here, enough to take pics at my initial visit and enough to force my husband to take a day off work to avoid the lines and get fed. Service is Pittsburgh friendly, and the food is solid, consistent and fab. I’ll go back and take friends each chance I get.

Crispy on the outside and sweet and soft inside, this pancake has the perfect balance of spicy ginger, sweet pumpkin puree and nutty cinnamon, It’s delicious. And large. Since I can never pick just one delicious treat, I recommend choosing this as a supplement to the other dishes on the menu. ONE certainly can’t hurt ;)

Spiral ham cooked in the kitchen and fresh carved for breakfast. It makes me with I were Amish! Or at least from a larger family. (Large enough to have a full ham every week!) The eggs are served on top and perfectly cooked, with a crunchy and oniony flavor. Delicious, and served with applesauce to even it all out. Wonderful

What a great place!

I have been to the Dor-Stop many times since they moved across the street. The new digs are spacious and comfortable. The place is spottlessly clean, the food delicious. Friendly fast service at very reasonable prices. The Dor-stop is my favorite breakfast place!
