Love this place for all of its VEGAN OPTIONS!!! 🤩 Literally everything is so good, many different options, portions are huge, and service is super kind and knowledgeable. They even have vegan waffles, shakes, ravioli, and so much more! 🤤🤤🤤

I'm vegan and I was amazed at the extent of their vegan menu choices! Unusual to find at a non vegan restaurant. They have an entire page dedicated to people who choose plant-based meals. This makes The Colony Diner a place for us to feel welcomed & included to enjoy a meal with our non vegan family and friends. I ordered the chickpea salad sandwich. It was immense and delicious! It came with a generous side of perfectly crisp French fries and a dill pickle. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a great plant based meal who is dining with people who are looking for something more typical in diner food. The rest of my family thoroughly enjoyed their non vegan meals as well.

The Colony Diner & Restaurant is a wonderful place to eat. It's one of a few places I have been to in America that have a vegan menu in addition to the regular menu while is impressive as well. The vegan options are so delicious you wouldn't even think they are an alternative dish. I had the chickpea "tuna" melt and it was amazing! The service was so friendly and welcoming. This place is phenomenal, a true gem! If you are in the area do not miss out, you won't be disappointment.

I have been a long time patron of Colony Diner. They have been CONSISTENLY wonderful, they know what I like (I order things that aren't really on the menu, but they always accommodate me) and they are true community players. Keep doing what you are doing it is GREAT!

I love that this place has a dedicated vegan menu. The Impossible Quesadilla is my favorite. Is it expensive? Yes. Do I care? Not really. I usually get 2-3 meals out of each visit. The quesadilla reheats really well. I am also a huge fan of the vegan patty melt. We have never had a problem with service or cleanliness. I am very excited to see new vegan options, especially desserts. I love that there is oatmilk for the coffee and dairy free butter for the toast.

Amazing New Years Day breakfast. Waitress has a photogenic memory. Six people she got every detail in one shot. They should consider expanding the seating some day, seems they could do more business if they did.

These guys did a great job, incredibly detailed menu- I don't know how they offer that degree of variety. But they did a wonderful job with our two meals. Very generous portions, very reasonable prices. The restaurant is lovely and well decorated. I would say it spotless but the floor is sticky everywhere. Nonetheless I intend to be a regular there.

Quiet tonight. Huge menu and everything is done correctly. We had the Cuban panini, fries, onion rings and a chipotle burger. Since it’s Pi day, we also had blueberry. Cannoli and lemon pie. All really yummy. Great portion sizes, enough to share. Our waitress was super-duper. She even gave us a cup of whipped cream to take home to our dog since it’s his birthday!

My wife and I come here frequently because of their extensive vegan menu. We've tried most all of it and it's all really good. Our non-vegan friends always seem happy with their food as well.
Despite being busy, I don't think we've ever waited more than 10 minutes to be seated. The wait staff is very friendly. And the food comes out quickly.
This is a great diner!

Colony Diner in Wallingford, CT, was a great spot to visit with family, especially for their impressive vegan menu. It’s rare to find a diner with such an extensive selection of plant-based options, and everything we tried was fresh and well-prepared. The atmosphere was friendly and comfortable, making it a nice place to sit and enjoy a meal together. Prices were a little on the higher side for diner fare, but the variety and quality made it worth it. A solid choice for vegans and non-vegans alike.
