Welcome to Back In Time Diner

My BLT and tater tot’s were delicious! The fried mushrooms are delicious. Service was wonderful. Friendly people. Loved the Betty Boop decor.

The young lady that served us this morning did an exceptional job. Very friendly, welcoming, helpful and attentive. Service like we had this morning, along with a perfect breakfast makes for a happy weekend start. I had the “Traditional Breakfast”: two eggs sunny side up, two strips of bacon crisp end to end, flawless crisp hash browns, a biscuit and gravy. The biscuit had received additional attention from the cook. It was split, buttered then toasted. A nice touch. The gravy was from a mix. No one makes gravy anymore. My wife ended up with a kid’s meal: one egg, one bacon, and one pancake. The cook is outstanding at the craft, an artist and a person that obviously loves what they do. The pancake on my wife’s plate turned out to be in the shape of Minnie Mouse with a pancake bow. Along with that was a pancake flower. That brightened her day and the pancakes were perfect! Check the pictures. Back in Time Diner is a cozy, clean comfortable, 50’s 60’s themed diner. It is decorated with Coca Cola, road signs, pictures of era music icons and other paraphernalia. Ads for the local businesses are laminated under the clear plastic table tops. Most of the businesses have been closed for years and long forgotten. I always enjoy searching the advertisements for odd ball companies or funny names while I wait. Little mom and pop restaurants like Back in Time Diner are a rare haven. A place where you can truly enjoy a meal and the atmosphere. The folks that work there make you feel good. You quickly forget about everything on the other side of that front door you just walked through. Excellent! Another one of my top picks for a small-town Oklahoma diner! Something you might not know. Muskogee is the home of the Griffin Food Company, makers of the “World Famous,” Griffin’s Syrup, proudly MIO. It’s what’s on the pancakes and waffles there. It’s ONLY what’s on the pancakes and waffles there. It is illegal to bring any other brand of syrup in to the city of Muskogee. If you are caught with more than an ounce of some other brand of syrup you will be charged with both possession and intent to distribute. Don’t test the law. The police dogs here are trained to sniff it out.

Pretty good little place for breakfast/brunch. Nice people, good food, good prices. Great selection of old fashion sodas. The only knock... The white gravy, tastes packaged and floury. Make it from scratch or switch brands, throw a little sausage grease in there. LOL. But everything else is very good.

Route 66 diner. Nostalgic. Good food. Great service.

Just happened to be in the neighborhood and saw the sign "Back in Time" restaurant. Hours are 6am to 2pm closed Sundays. Walked in and really felt the ambiance. Checkered floor, red chairs, boothes, cabinets, and Betty Boop statue along with pictures and other items that take you "back in time." The waitress was quick to acknowledge our arrival. The food was served reasonably quick as we drank hot coffee as we waited. The food was delicious, portions large and seasoned well. We ordered pancakes and biscuits with white gravy, sprinkled with tasty ham and sausage and cheese, and served with hash browns. The omlette was made to order with ham and cheese and hash browns. Spent around $40 for three adults, including drinks and tip. My 95 year old Mom loved the experience and food.
