Great place for a Sunday morning breakfast. Great food, service, and sitting outside on this particular day was great

Looking for that classic diner feel? Central Diner provides with breakfast staples and an atmosphere, complete with a community countertop, hard to find nowadays.

Classic American diner. It's downtown so you'd think the prices would be higher, but they do a great job of keeping it reasonable. Very working class joint, saved me from a hangover more than once. Get johns special!

I absolutely love this staff! They work like a well-oiled machine. Food is always fresh and amazing. Hardly any wait even though they are always busy.

Every downtown should have a diner. A diner is a necessity. The different types of cafes and shops are fabulous. However, sometimes there is a need for breakfast and lunch being served in the same place at the same time. Thank you, Central diner!

Central Coffee is an unassuming diner with a simple, seat-yourself vibe, and excellent food. Look no further than the house special breakfast (home fries with cheese, sausage, and eggs) or the biscuits and gravy (their country gravy is almost a food group of its own and is the best I’ve ever had!) Comfortable seating, great prices, and prompt service are the icing on the cake. I look forward to breakfast at Central Coffee every time I visit St Pete and I haven’t been disappointed yet!

Meanest server ever. Yelled at a guy in a wheelchair. We left after she threw straws as us.

It was uncomfortably warm, not sure the a/c was working. I left before ordering, the servers were all friendly but looked super uncomfortable in the heat. I felt bad for them.
