Roadrunner Restaurant: the small-town diner every town needs, and Langley has one

A classic diner on 62 Avenue: generous plates, good food, quick and friendly service, and a room that was full ten minutes after we sat down.

You know the place. Every small town across the country has one: a low-key diner on the edge of town with a hand-painted sign, bottomless coffee, plates that hang over the edge and a cook who doesn’t mess around. Roadrunner is Langley’s, tucked into a block of warehouses and service shops on 62 Avenue. We went for a late Sunday lunch, walked straight in, and within ten minutes every seat in the place was taken. That tells you most of what you need to know.

What we ate

The Hunger Burger ($24) is a beef patty and a crispy fried chicken breast on one brioche bun, with cheddar, Swiss and a spicy sauce. It’s as much as it sounds, and there was a takeout box involved by the end.

A word on the fries, because they deserve one. These are proper homemade fries: whole potatoes pushed through a fry cutter in the kitchen, so you get the long ones, the short ones, the odd one with a bit of skin on the end. Nothing like the frozen, all-the-same kind. Every plate here comes with them, and they’re worth it.

The Club House ($19) is the real three-bread version, stacked with turkey and bacon and properly tall. The Roadrunner Special ($14), two eggs, meat and toast, is the classic diner breakfast at a price that’s getting hard to find.

All three of us cleaned up, all three of us were full, and we still went home with leftovers.

The room

Counter stools, a big chalkboard wall with milkshake doodles, a TV with the game on and a hello written in Korean by the coffee station. Service was quick and friendly even as the room filled up around us. It’s not big, so on a weekend lunch, get there before the rush or expect a short wait.

Bringing kids?

Yes. There’s no kids’ menu, but half orders of pancakes ($8), French toast ($8.50) and croffles ($7.50) do the same job, and the grilled cheese ($13.50) comes with fries. For drinks that aren’t coffee, there are milkshakes ($7.50, chocolate, strawberry or vanilla), a root beer float ($6) and lemonade ($5).

Go if you want a big, honest plate of diner food at a fair price, and you don’t mind sharing the room with half of Langley. Skip if you’re after somewhere quiet to linger on a Sunday afternoon; they close at 3.
