About Our Diner

Appleton's family-run neighborhood favorite, crafting homestyle comfort and legendary breakfasts since 1964.

Serving Appleton & Fox Cities Since 1964

For over six decades, Little Diner Xpress (often called Little Diner Express or LDX) has been the heartbeat of Appleton, Wisconsin's local breakfast and lunch scene. Established in 1964, our family-owned diner has stood the test of time by serving unmatched, hearty portions of homestyle cooking in a warm, welcoming environment.

We take pride in our deep community roots. When you step through our doors at 1939 N Richmond St, you are treated like family. It is a common sight to see the owners, Remy and Becky, cooking your meals at the griddle, pouring your coffee, or stopping by your table to say hello. That personal touch has made us a legendary community staple in the Fox Valley region.

A Warm, Kid-Friendly Environment

We design our diner experience specifically for families. Little Diner Xpress is a place where parents can relax and kids are always welcome. From our extensive kid-friendly selections to our patient staff, we make dining out with children a breeze.

Whether you are gathering for a Sunday family brunch, a weekday morning business meeting, or just grabbing carryout, you will find comfortable booths, big smiles, and a space where you can truly feel at home.
