Food was okay waitress doesnt even know whats in the food said ceaser had no anchovies in itđŸ€Šâ€â™€ïžapparently they are cash only and we looked everywhere after we paid because there was not a single sign saying cash only and no one told us it was cash only before we sat down either. def a scam to get you to use their atm which has a crazy service fee. also there menus are printed paper and im not against that however they had stains all over them. and being that they are paper they can not be washed or sanitzed between customers so you never know what you just touched.

Bent over medium eggs back three times first time barely cooked they re-cooked them then they were hard as a rock then I finally got something close to it my wife ordered a chicken wrap the chicken inside the wrap was barely chewable not a good experience the owner gentleman did not charge me for the meal which I think I should not have had to pay for anyway it was gross

Definitely remembered this place from when I was in high school so when googling for a breakfast spot and it came up as a suggestion I couldn’t help myself! A real classic dinner (not 50s on purpose) just local people eating typical breakfast fare, nothing fancy, a good spot to stop and grab something on the way to wherever you’re headed.

I love this dinner and have gone there for over 30 years, but today, the service from the older waitress was the worst. She gave me a used coffee cup. It had egg stuck to the top by the handle, and coffee drips on the opposite side from the side I use. The top rim on that side was sticky. To top it off, she didn't even look at us when she gave us the bill. No review is better than a bad review.

This is one my favorite places for breakfast or lunch in the area. I typically get the Breakfast Deluxe which has 2 eggs, 2 pancakes, bacon and toast for around $9. My lunch favorite is the Broadway Combo. It’s a pastrami / corned beef sandwich on a bed of coleslaw on rye bread with thousand island dressing, coleslaw and a pickle for $8. The prices are great and the food is good. Keep in mind that they only take cash.đŸ’”

Local historic tin style diner car. Both food and service are great! We choose to dine for breakfast enjoying a pork roll egg and cheese sandwich on a bun!

My mother worked here most of my formative years. When I became an adult, I moved away. While I've visited PA over the years I have not been here in over 40 years.
Now that mom is gone, I wanted to walk down memory lane. The food & service didn't disappoint. I highly recommend the pulled pork sandwich.

Parking: Fresh & clean remodeled just a couple years ago.

Open early retro NJ diner. The atmosphere looks like what you want to experience going to a roadside diner. Stainless steel exterior and retro counter and both chairs but all are in excellent condition. The diner is clean and tables and floors spotless.
I went early for breakfast and was able to get their deluxe breakfast for $9. It was two eggs, 2 bacon, 2 sausage links and 2 pancakes. It was fall so I opted for the Pumpkin Pancakes and coffee to drink, of course.
At 6am there were a few locals at the counter quietly eating and talking to the waitress.
The eggs looked perfect and tasted as good as they look in this picture. Presentation was good amd the food was served quick.
The food was very good. I will be back for sure as their menu looked extensive for lunch and dinner and I will have to give some more items a try.
Thet said, I left a piece of toast and half the pancakes as I was full.

This place is a small, old time style Metal Diner. Appears to be family owned and run. Very limited hours of 5am to 2:30pm. But probably works well for the senior area. In the 6 months I've been going there, it's hard to make a friendly waitress connection as that part of the staff has changed out often with Waitress Wanted signs up outside. I still recommend you try the place out.

Parking: Plenty of parking for the limited seating inside. But the lot is a bit rough on the paved part. The rest of it is rocks. Might be an issue for women with heels.
