Breakfast/Brunch review only: Silver Diner at BWI is a classic American diner with a great atmosphere. They’ve captured the airstream diner vibe perfectly—from the shiny steel exterior, to the counter seating, to the jukebox up front. It’s always clean, and the service is consistently prompt and friendly. The food isn’t the absolute best diner food you’ll ever have, but for an airport restaurant it’s surprisingly good. They feature locally farmed Amish eggs, make solid pancakes, and my wife absolutely loves their iced coffee. If you don’t have time for a sit-down meal, their grab-and-go counter is a much better option than standard airport fast food. Even better, you can call ahead to place an order. That means you can call when your plane lands or as you’re going through security, and your food will be hot, ready to pick up and run. While I can’t speak to lunch or dinner, if you’re looking for a breakfast spot at Baltimore/Washington International Airport, I highly recommend Silver Diner.

The wait time was crazy but we had a long connection so decided to wait. The place was packed, servers were overwhelmed but amazing people. The food was good, yum, and huge portions! I LOVE the decor, theme items and the jukeboxes, wish I had quarters!

Great airport fitout of a classic diner. I had the bison huevos ranchers and it was absolutely delicious. The dishes on the menu are elevated and chef designed. The service was friendly and prompt. Will definitely come back in or out of the airport.

This has been a BWI in & out week for us. Both times we found ourselves at the dinner & had great experiences. The 1st was a late dinner and this was lunch. The buffalo wings, Greek salad, & Cobb salad were great. Their homemade blue cheese salad dressing is outstanding. We added grilled salmon to the salad at loved it. At lunch, without asking they split our salad in two bowls since we mentioned we were sharing, that was so appreciated. At dinner I ordered a delicious Old Fashioned Cocktail. Highly recommend Silver Diner. We had a blast picking old favorites from the jukebox on the table & we extremely grateful for the power outlet at the table top level. Both of our servers were fabulous. (Thani & Daizhah) Great job!!!!
