Orem’s Diner, 167 Danbury Road, Wilton CT
Orem’s has been serving Wilton and other towns great food since 1921! I’ve been going to Orem’s since I was a baby.
Orem’s is very popular with kids and adults, so, if you go on a weekend morning, be prepared to wait for a table… but the wait won’t be very long, and it will be worth it.
Their menu is HUGE and there are lots of different delicious choices for breakfast.
I had the “Lumberjack” breakfast, which is 3 Pancakes, Two Eggs (I had mine scrambled), Bacon, 2 Sausages AND… a slice of Ham! It as BIG enough for a Lumberjack – and I could barely finish it! The chocolate milk was freshly made and cold!
I asked the manager, Chris Papanikolaou, whose family owns Orem’s, how many eggs does Orem’s use on a Sunday:
He said “Wow, a lot, during a typical week, we go through 20 X 60 cases of eggs
That ‘s a lot of eggs!
Mr. Chris also told me that pancakes are the most popular item on the menu for kids.

Orem’s has a great website with has lots of cool stuff about its history — they were even once in a Hi and Lois Sunday Comic in the newspaper! So definitely check it out!
Wow, all 5’s! I’m going to have to check it out during my next visit. Thanks for the review Alex.
Once again, a very tantalizing review. . . wish I were in Wilton, but it is sunny and 75 degrees here in Los Angeles, so I can’t be too sad.
Nice! That Lumberjack plate looks really good. ..and I know where this diner is.
Hi Alex, we love Orem’s too! I love diners, and I think your blog Is great! I really like the ratings of the bathrooms since that is something I find important. Keep up the good work!
Have you tried Blue Colony Diner in Newtown? They make great fries with gravy!
