Im so sorry i didnt get good pictures! But dont let that fool you. This food was amazing. I had Steak & Eggs , pancakes, grits with bacon, and a Chicken & Dumplings Cup (which Isaved for next day). The steak was cooked well done like i like, pancakes tased home-cooked and big a fluffy, eggs with cheese were good. The grits had an ample anount of bacon them and were nice and creamy. Also I ordered grapefruit Juices which came in a bottle (Tropicana). I will continue to order from Hope Valley Diner!

Always a 10/10! LOVE the food here, the Steak & Eggs is cooked just how I like it, the eggs are fluffy and cheesy. The grits are perfect not that gritty texture you get from some other places but nice and smooth. The pancakes were nice a fluffy as well and came with whipped crème. The food is fresh, portion sizes (as you can see) are very adequate, and I will continue to order from here!

The portions for what you pay for aren't the best. Sides looked dry and fried okra was burnt. Given the chicken Chicken Salad was 20 percent off it was still 13 dollars for that tiny scoop. The white meat Fried Chicken piece they gave me was very tiny and over fried. Have gotten this same plate in the past and it was not anything like what showed up today. Inconsistent.

Let's just say, I was sad the other day when Hope Diner was closed.
They have the best breakfast in Durham NC to me.
4 egg breakfast: scrambled with cheddar cheese, bacon, sausage, corned beef hash and cinnamon toast. Watermelon and I ordered a cup of the chicken and dumplings.
Everything was delicious and freshly made.
Highly recommended.

Excellent food! Great for breakfast or lunch! The Pork Chops were unlike any I've ever tasted. Bone-in, juicy, and seasoned just right. Try them! The cabbage and fried apples were good also. The cake was on the dry side. The Steak & Eggs, French toast, Grits - Cup, oatmeal--Of course all the breakfast items were fantastic, I could eat here every day!!
