The Scotia Diner - Schenectady

When trying to go out for a family breakfast today, we were disappointed to be refused service because there are seven of us. We had three young children and offered to squeeze into a round corner booth to which they refused and just simply said they could not serve us. No offer of waiting or accommodating by putting other tables together.

Wouldn’t seat us. So I can’t tell you about their food. Don’t take kids there apparently?

Had eggs and ham on a roll and pancakes and coffee. All very good. Waitresses were a little tired but very nice. Atmosphere was old memorabilia... All fine. Only negative was bathrooms are dirty.

I rated all 5s as a diner. What anyone could reasonably expect from a local they do well. Good eats, reasonably priced, attentive service and a neighborhood diner atmosphere. Not real close to home, but my wife and I go about as frequently as our travels bring us nearby.

Place had a great vibe, looking forward to going back.
