Karen's Diner The Dining Experience
The Interior
The diner concept is American diner style with themed food and drinks. Expect bright colours with kitsch tablecloths and seating booths.
The Service
Karen’s Diner has a slogan ‘Great Burgers & Very Rude Service’ on their website. This will explain the hilarious, absurdly bad service you’ll receive when dining. This is a place that has theatrical, pantomime vibes with the idea of a restaurant thrown in the mix. With serving staff getting up to all sorts of antics as they come to your table with attitude. They may even throw the menu at your feet, use bad language or stick a middle finger up when you have a request!
Interestingly you are welcome to take your kids and the older ones will probably find it highly amusing. However, maybe due to the fruity language leave the littler ones at home!
The name relates to the stereotype of a ‘Karen’ – a particular type of woman who’s always just a moment away from making a complaint. But try that with the rude staff at Karen’s Diner and it might not get you very far.
This is a dining experience where you will laugh at the terrible service as staff with plenty of sass, make fun of guests and be warned involve you in games such as Wheel of Misfortune.
What food and drink can I order at Karen's Diner?
American diner cuisine is the speciality at Karen’s Diner. Tuck in to delicious burgers with American cheese. Do you want a beef or chicken burger? Add a side of bacon and chicken fries if you fancy or perhaps you prefer onion rings? There are loads of options to pick from.
Then, we recommend you don’t miss a taste of the Karen’s Diner waffle bowl or churro surprise for some sweet treats. Is your name Karen? Make sure to tell the staff as you will get special treatment with a free drink!
