We were seated at a booth for two adjacent to the outer. There were many booths for four that were available. Some of these booths had just two patrons, one had just one. Then we waited. We sat for at least 15 to 20 minutes before the cashier came back to see if anyone had offered us coffee. About 15 minutes later the waitress who had seated us came to take our order. Ellen had two eggs, bacon and home fries. They were good. I ordered two poached eggs on corned beef hash. The hash was absolutely inedible. I had two bytes and pushed them aside. No one offered a refill of our coffee. Ellen got up and intercepted a waitress and got her cup refilled. I spoke to the cashier about our experience. She didn’t say a word. We will never return

Our absolute favorite spot for Breakfast and Lunch. Great daily specials! The TCB omelette is my go to favorite. Friendly atmosphere and the service is exceptional. Kudos to Kris and her amazing staff.

Decided to try this tiny outdated diner located in a strip mall after a morning of crabbing on the Barnegat Bay. It seemed ok when we walked in, seeing the older local folks enjoying their meals. We were seated at a booth and there was no way my 6'5" partner was going to be comfortable. They are so tight it would have been impossible to enjoy a meal so I requested a table. Much better. P. S. There was a larger woman whose breasts were actually resting on the table! Anyway, moving on. The hostess was a bit cranky but our server was good. The coffee. Ugh. What can I say. I couldn't even drink it and I love coffee. It was so weak and it tasted dirty like their machines were never thoroughly cleaned. Disappointing. We both got fried eggs over easy and they came out in a puddle of grease. The sausage and home fries were dry like they were sitting around for hours. The toast was good and there was real butter available for extra buttering. The one thing that really turned me off is the sign on the door. They charge a 3.9% fee if using a credit or DEBIT card!! Well that wasn't happening so we were forced to pay with cash and I couldn't treat for breakfast as promised as I had no cash on me. Pretty ridiculous. Bottom line. Would I return? No. I'll go to McDonald's or the Stafford Diner for a better meal.

This was our first dining experience at the Barnegat Diner. The waitress was friendly and very efficient! The menu selection was fantastic and the specials board was varied. I ordered an ice tea which was refreshing! The wrap came warmed with the most hot and crispy fries! My husband ordered the lunch special which came with soup. He loved it! This is now our go to diner! We’ll be back!
Very underrated place. Food was good and the place was clean. Cute little diner ?

Quaint local diner serving Barnegat locals. Non-Locals Beware! Our group was chastised for asking for non-dairy products for coffee. In addition to responding that none were available, the server noted that they don't have turkey bacon either. K. We didn't ask for turkey bacon. And there's a pretty common thing going on with non-dairy products for coffee. We were also chastised with an audible exasperated sigh when our kid was organizing the creamer and jelly packets. No mess, just organizing and playing with them as kids do, and with all intentions to put them back in the bowl. Well, that ended early because we were told by Rita Wilson Hanks (doppelgänger) that they have to go back in the bowl. Captain Obvious to the rescue! Scrapple on the menu - a meat loaf type side that's composed of "scraps" from the grill. It was good with ketchup, although the family razzed me about eating "scraps" from other peoples' meals. Not sure that's what scrapple is, but who knows! She's having a bad day, but by her interactions with the octogenarians we think it was more about being insecure with her customers. Non-dairy = out of towners. The only upside is that the meals are so underpriced, you take the CAF with a side of "scrapple rude." As Chet Hanks says, "Ree-Spect Monn!"

Will not be back. We ate breakfast. The breakfast potatoes and pork roll were greasy and just awful. They tasted burnt. The scrambled eggs were the only thing that was good. The waitress was nice. We have eaten here more than a few times but will not eat here anymore. Tried it for the last time. It will never change. Get a new cook please. The food actually started to make me sick.
