Mickey's Diner St. Paul Minnesota

We went to lunch at Mickey’s Dining Car in St. Paul Minnesota which just down the street from where I work. We were seated right away at the counter which is here I love to sit to watch them prepare the meals. Below is some history on Mickey's.




Mickey's Dining Car was Placed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1983




Mickey’s Diner in St. Paul Minnesota was designed to resemble the railroad dining cars of the period. It is unique in that it is one of the first diners to be built in the Art Deco style. Mickey’s Dining Car was manufactured in New Jersey and shipped by rail on a flat bed to its present location.




I ordered the One Eye Jack at Mickey's Diner which was a toasted ham, cheese, and egg sandwich. I ordered it with fries instead of hash browns.
The fries were crunchy but didn’t drip of oil like some fries. The sandwich came with a large piece of ham, two slices of cheese grilled with a fried egg on top. The sandwich had a wonderful flavor and was well worth the $9 I paid for it.




My friend ordered the Mickey's Diner sausage omelet with hash browns and toast. I noticed they put the eggs in a stainless steal malt shop cup and mixed them with an ice cream mixer for 3 minutes. It must by why they are so fluffy. They put the eggs into a small pan and flip it once, load it with sausage and fold it over.
It was a big fat omelet stuffed with big chunks of sausage. She had way too much food for one person and maybe two people. Here meal was about the same $11.


The Mickey's Diner cook was very funny and made us all laugh more than once. It was hypnotizing to watch him cook all of the orders at one time keeping everything straight. It is a wonder that the staff doesn’t get hurt working together because of the close corners they share while performing their jobs.


Mickey’s Diner is a definite must do if you are in the town of St. Paul Minnesota.
