You’ll find all kinds of people at Thumbs Up Diner on Edgewood—retirees lingering over coffee and fluffy pancakes, film and music industry folks juggling calls between bites of steaming grits, and third shifters ending their workday with hefty breakfast skillets full of eggs and crispy potatoes. That mix of people is just empirical proof of this 20-plus-year-old diner's welcoming energy. The breakfast is reliably great, the service is friendly, and sitting here with sunlight streaming through the big windows just feels good.
