Lantern Inn

First time visiting this establishment and they did not disappoint. As a self proclaimed picky eater I was a bit skeptical as I am when I visiting most places. I ordered a variety of items which were all really good to the point where I can't wait to return! I was very happy to alternate options to pork. The atmosphere was kind of an older crowd which I don't mind lol also the service was great!

I had a call in order of a smoke sausage sandwich with egg and cheese...and when I tell you Ronnie, Chad and Lee made my sandwich with love. I bit into it... stopped and called and told them how wonderful it was. The absolute best breakfast sandwich I have had in a long time!!!

It was my first time here on a Sunday. We came in around 1 pm Sunday afternoon. They were very busy but had room for sitting. We sat and were immediately helped. The server was kind of dry, but she got us our drinks and took our order promptly. Our food only took 20 minutes, give or take to come out. I ordered a custom omelet and 1/2 order of French toast. The omelet was big and full. The frech toast was one piece but was good as well. My husband ordered scrambled eggs and smoked sausage grits and toast. It was all in all good food and great pricing. We were all in with tips at around 42 dollars for all that food.

Great food, fast service, friendly staff and reasonably priced.

Great food! Great prices! I've been looking for a diner atmosphere restaurant with good ol comfort food!⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

I love the natural dine in feel to it. It's not your typical chain restaurant feeling where everything is color coded to promote the chain restaurants.

This was my first time here. And to my surprise the place was packed with all of the regulars from near and far. They have a good reasonably priced breakfast from $6.49 on up, depending on your order. Everything was timely, the staff was courteous and the people were very friendly.

This is me and my girlfriends goto breakfast spot. The service is always quick and super friendly. The food is always hot and fresh, we have never had a problem there.

I was here for breakfast one time with my family, and in my limited opinion, this restaurant has AMAZING food, AMAZING service, and a busy but comfortable atmosphere. The parking can be tricky when they are busy, but it is worth the challenge. One thing I strongly dislike is when I put my arms on the table and they stick due to either not being cleaned off or cleaned off with a dirty rag. Our table was very clean and dry! I was impressed. The chairs were clean as well. The food (for all 4 of us) was prepared perfectly, the waitress was extremely polite and attentive, and the prices were very reasonable. Oh, their coffee was tasty as well, not bitter, fresh and hot!

We are frequent visitors to this restaurant for breakfast and have never been disappointed. It can get crowded at times and some servers are better than others but it is one of our favorite restaurants.

Great food, consistently every day...even at 7am..and always great coffee

Food and service was great since we walked thru the door!! Will definitely visit Again...

I come here a few times a week for breakfast. The staff are phenomenal and the owner (who is also Goldsboro's Mayor, as well as my closest competitor for the best Airbnb Superhost in town) I'm told, DOES actually give the IRS the money he witholds from his employees paychecks...well, at least the one's at the Lantern Inn.

I highly recommend what has become my usual, it's a custom dish I came up with. Just ask any of the morning staff for the "Bed and Breakfast Burrito." It's basically five different types of pork, four different Cheese's, three different potatoes, and three eggs scrambled all together in a grilled tortilla. You won't find it anywhere on the menu, just like you won't find any justification for spending over $2M on Goldsboro's storm drain 'problem' (not to be confused with the funding for all the sewage line construction tearing up the roads in 2019), and could easily be solved by having the residents bag their yard waste instead of raking it to the curb thus creating a virtual dam prohibiting the water from getting to the storm drain in the first place.....

... However, when it comes to running a local diner, the mayor has my vote.

Cute place, with very friendly staff. Theyll make just about any of your favorite classic American breakfasts

Excellent!! Waitress name was Lacy. She deserves a raise, excellent with older people, my 93 year old mother loved her!! She wants to return, never gets out, she loved Lacy and the atmosphere!!!

I love this place. I have been going for years. Staff is always fast and friendly. & Food had consistently been delicious. I think I have only had a problem once and they immediately made it right. FOREVER MY FAVORITE PLACE.

One of the best places to get breakfast !

Nice environment, good breakfast food, good and affordable

Good food and a great value.

Great food! Great service! Great atmosphere! 😃
