Deceptively good! Seems like a little diner connected to a motel but the menu and food say otherwise. Great atmosphere and food!

When I first approached the Marlboro diner, I didn’t know what to expect. The diner is located at 143 US-9, so the diner was really easy to notice since it was right off the highway. On the outside, the parking lot was jam-packed, but I managed to find a spot in the back. I went on Monday, March 17th at around 6:00pm, during the dinner rush. I’d expected the place to be empty, since it was a Monday, but I was greeted with a very loud atmosphere. It was clear that the diner was always busy. Upon entering, I was seated immediately by the host which was very surprising, given the environment. A staff member at the front desk quickly found us a nice table by the windows. Inside the diner, there were a lot of vintage posters, and I felt a strange sense of nostalgia for a time where I wasn’t born yet. The diner didn’t lean too much into the vintage aesthetic, as the benches and tables were modern. The lightning was also gentle, so it felt pretty calming inside. That being said, the other patrons inside were very loud. The tables were very clean, and I could also see staff members working quickly to prepare the tables for the next customers. The waitress greeted us immediately, and asked us for our orders. I ordered a grilled chicken sandwich combo, which included coleslaw, a pickle, and fries. The chicken sandwich was listed under their “specialty sandwiches”, so I was happy to try their best food. I also ordered sweetened iced tea and a bowl of chicken noodle soup.
The food came out in less than 10 minutes, so I wasn’t hungry for very long. I noticed that the fries were seasoned properly, and very crunchy. I appreciated the fact that the fries weren’t overly salted. The sweet tea was very refreshing, and I drank all of it quickly. The waitress noticed and quickly refilled my drinks for free. They also came back and checked to make sure the food was to our liking. The chicken sandwich was very easy to digest. The chicken soup was great, and I really appreciated the fact that they didn’t add too much salt. They can also cater to specific requests. For example, if you would like a gluten-free option, they offer gluten-free wraps. The total cost for the sandwich, tea, and soup was 22 dollars. If it weren’t for the limits of my stomach, I could probably eat here forever! Overall a pretty great experience, and would definitely recommend coming back in the future.

The best diner in the area! New jersey is home to many local diners. The all seasons, manalapan, and old bridge diners. While these are all good choices, there is one that tops it all. The Marlboro diner is my go to spot for good food. Between all day breakfast, lunch specials, burgers, and deserts, the options are endless! The food is always fresh and tasty. As a dude with a sensitive stomach, I can come here everyday and never get a stomach ache. 5/5

Delicious food. Place is clean and modern compared to other diners. Maria C is amazing, she made sure everything was ok with our food. Everyone is so friendly. Prices are average. No long wait times which is amazing.

We have been coming here for years with our family and it has always been 5 stars. Today we were greeting by a man we've never seen before . He was so harsh with us and told me I was not allowed to bring my drinking cup in. I told him I only had water but he was very harsh in front of my family and other people. I was forced to take my water back to the car or he would not seat us. We were very embarrassed. Today will most likely be the last time we come here with family and friends and we will no longer recommend this place as long as this man works here. Mrs. Nunez
First time back in years. Table, seats decor all redone nicely. Wife had burger in had gyro. All good portions and prepared as requested. Very attentive service. Will be back.

True Americana Diner with counter service, booths, and tables. Hearty portions,too. You won't go away hungry. The coffee is Hot - very important to us coffee lovers ☕. When they describe a dish as having the eggs on top wait until you see what's underneath. Scrumptious.
