Lightburns Family Diner
MEET US
We are more than just a restaurant - we are artists/creative people. Here at Lightburns Family Diner we are all about tradition, comfort food, family, life, laughter & above all love. We want folks to be able to come to our establishment with their kids or significant other & feel at home, but more so to leave happy with good memories. Years ago when I was working as a Sous Chef in Olde city Philadelphia & my wife Dianne was working as a Pediatric Nurse, we would always have our favorite little Mom & Pop Diners we'd go to have breakfast & spend a little time together. I remember places that had decent prices, good service & family friendly. Fast forward to 2017 and things are different now. The kind of places I am talking about rarely exist anymore in America. Come visit us and meet our wonderful talented staff.
