Lag's Eatery was a restaurant located at 903 Broadway Street in Homewood. It was founded in the 1970s by Anthony "Lag" Gagliano, whose brother-in-law, Buddy DiChiara, had built the space next door to his Monarch Cleaners business.

Lag's served traditional dishes such as pancakes and bacon for breakfast and plate lunches, sandwiches, hamburgers, hot dogs, and salads for lunch. It did not serve dinner.

Gerard DeFrank bought the restaurant from Gagliano in the 1990s and continued to operate under the same name until he retired due to failing health in 2008. Employees kept the business open for a short time.

In 2024 former Lag's Eatery workers Justin Shubert and Eric Wallace reopened the eatery in the former Lo Lo's BBQ building at 4350 3rd Court South in East Avondale.
