Logan’s Diner

Homemade cooking at its best. Do not leave without trying the apple or chocolate chess pie! You will love them both!!!

Very awesome restaurant! We were driving back to Winston from Virginia Beach and we’re making an effort to stop somewhere local and not a chain. We saw this online and decided to give it a go. The place was packed on a Monday afternoon so we knew we chose well. I got the cheeseburger with a side salad and I devoured both! Since we were in a hurry to get home I got the peanut butter pie to go and OhMyLord… Was it good!!! It was euphoric and I mean that haha. I wanna drive 2.5 hours back just to order more! If you go here you must order it, trust me

Wow! What a terrific piece of old school Americana. Located right on Main St., this diner is comfort food heaven! Clean and everyone is super friendly.
The awesome waitress recommended the hamburger steak special (with 2 sides and a roll) and she was right on the mark. The yummy onion gravy and moist patty reminded me of dinners growing up. So did the butter beans which melted in my mouth and were cooked with just the right amount of ham. Unfortunately, the Mac n Cheese also reminded me of my Mom’s — bland. It was obviously reheated in the microwave and had some cold spots. That’s the only reason I gave this place 4 stars.
Hubby had the ribeye sandwich and loved it. Not too thick, not too thin and flavorful. He said it was so good he could eat another one!
Great little stop off ⁵⁸⁄₉₅. We’ll definitely be back when we pass through again, but next time I’ll choose the mashed potatoes!

This a great place. Very good food and very happy people. Old time values show to bad so many places have lost what these people have.
Shantel Edwards was great to meet.

A small diner that had very good food fast without being «fast food». The chicken sandwich was very tasty and the homemade chicken salad sandwich was yummy. For a treat we had the peanut butter pie with chocolate sauce was delicious. A great find, worth the drop off of 95! FYI breakfast is not served after 10:00 am

If you are passing by the area and want a food stop don’t go to McDonald’s or Wendy’s come here. This is real old America. The food is delicious and made fresh in front of your eyes. The waitress’s and everyone are very nice
Well worth it. I had the philly cheese steak. Delicious!

Great lunch time meal at the counter with gracious service. Definitely will be back when we travel 95.

Great diner! Clean, sassy and fast service. They have a lot of mouths to feed. Great food options that include Turnip greens and Butter beans! I would definitely return.

Passing through the area and wanted something other than the chain places. Found this place and glad I did. I got the special which was roast beef then chose two sides. Turnip greens and butter beans. Everything was awesome. I could cut the need with my fork. Looking forward to stopping again.
If you plan to leave a tip on your card you have to tell them before they swipe it.

Needed to stop for a sandwich. Went on Unilocal.
Logan’s Diner was just what we needed.
Quick and easy off 95.
Very clean, good friendly service from Brook.

Great local diner. Very crowded during lunch, but service was lightning fast.
We all had the Monday blue plate apecial, fried chicken with two sides. Chicken was fresh and hot. Butter beans were spot on.
Look forward to coming back.

So, anyway, I fell asleep in the car and dreamed about fried chicken with two sides and a big glass of sweet tea. When I woke up I checked my phone for nearby possibilities and there it was… right in the middle of Emporia, Virginia — just off the courthouse square; Logan’s Diner. Almost missed it, glad I didn’t. Two perfectly seasoned and fried pieces of bird, cabbage and beans later I was stuffed, to-​go box in hand, back on the Interstate. Do yourself a favor; get off the highway for a few minutes. Good find. Great prices

Great service. Excellent burgers. Amazing homemade peanut butter pie (to die for) and cheap prices. Would definitely recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for a quick and delicious meal!

Super clean ! When ever I am in town for business I always make it a point to eat here! Simple food always good! Low price makes it better! And you’re always created with a smile!

We stopped here for lunch on a Saturday afternoon while driving north on 95. This diner is only a 5 minute drive away and so much better than a fast food chain. The town looks run down and the diner is old as well, but well worth trying. We were immediately greeted by the friendly wait staff and served iced cold water. We all thought the food was good and a great value for the money. The BLT and home fries tasted like we make it at home. The pies were home made and delicious. The lemon pie and peanut butter pies hit the spot along with a scoop of breyers ice cream. Don’t let the sad little town scare you. You’ll be glad you stopped.

Stopped off here for lunch on the way back home with the family. Food was inexpensive, tasty and served quickly. Husband had the ribeye sandwich & said it was very flavorful. Kids ate all their food which is not usual for our family. Servers were friendly & attentive.
It’s a bit crowded at lunchtime — pretty small space and the booths only hold 4 ppl. Lots of locals having lunch. May not be the best time to stop if you’re in a rush. We had to wait a few for a booth to clear out but the wait wasn’t too bad. It was worth it.

Great little countertop diner, right in the middle of town. Breakfast was delicious, cooked perfectly. Staff is friendly and very attentive. Perfect stop only 5 min off I95.

Great local spot…4 of us had breakfast there on ¹¹⁄₁ while traveling through the Emporia area. Friendly locals, good food, reasonable prices and great attentive service. Our waitress Patricia immediately made us feel at home and was helpful with the menu items to make sure we were sure of all the choices. I had fried bologna with my eggs cooked to order with a homemade biscuit that was great. The grits weren’t the best but then Emporia is a little far north for great grits. The pancakes and French toast were good also as was the sausage gravy over biscuits. All in all it is a good place to stop for breakfast and only 5 minutes from the interstate.

While staying in Emporia as part of a road trip, I was looking for a place to have breakfast other than at chain restaurants along the Interstate. I headed into town and stopped in at Logan’s Diner, parking along the street. This diner has a hometown feel with booths (7) along the wall and counter seating (11 high seats), and open food prep and grill area behind the counter. The place has a 1950s theme with classic posters on the seagreen painted cinder block walls, pink painted walls, jukebox (with oldies) and 45-​records hanging above the dining area.
They serve traditional American fare for breakfast, lunch, and dinner and the prices seem reasonable (prices under $ 10). Breakfast items include egg dishes (with meat choices including pork chops, steak, bologna, pork brains, sausage, bacon, salmon cakes), omelets, pancakes, French toast, Belgian waffles, hash, and biscuits with sausage gravy. Lunch/​dinner items include sandwiches, burgers, soup, salads, chicken tenders, BBQ, hot wings, fried shrimp, and sides. Daily specials are offered here including fried trout & shrimp on Fridays.
I was greeted as I entered the place and sat myself at a booth. I was offered a drink while looking at the menu. The coffee ($ 1.49) served in a big mug was good, Coffeemate creamers on table. For breakfast, I ordered the Salmon Cakes ($ 6.25) with 2 eggs, choice of home fries, hash browns, or grits and choice of toast or biscuit. I watched my food being cooked to order on the grill and skillet and served in about 10 minutes after ordering.
The portion of hot food was generous. The 2 grilled salmon cakes were thick, crisp browned on the outside and soft and moist texture inside with minced chopped onions, shredded salmon meat and breading. The hash browns were freshly shredded potatoes, grilled and browned crisp on the outside. The hot buttermilk biscuit was very good too.
The service here was good and laid lack here. The place was not that busy on a rainy Thursday morning and the staff kept an eye on my table. I was given some ice water without asking for it. I did not need refills on the coffee since the big mug had enough liquified caffeine. This place was a great pick for a «Southern style» breakfast!
