7 Best Diners near Manchester

“I always wanted to try this place, cute fifties vibe at the front entrance, lots of fifties memorabilia on the walls inside. Black and white checkered flooring. It is not a huge place but they were plenty busy when my spouse and I visited for lunch. Waitresses were nice, we sat at a small counter there. There are booths along both sides of the wall.I have to say that we were both surprised by the food quality for the price. I had a mushroom Swiss burger, my spouse a classic cheese burger. They were a good sized burger, delicious french fries, small side of coleslaw, pickle, lettuce and two slices of tomato (who does that anymore?) The unexpected surprise was two onion rings. I have to say, its the little things that sets a place apart. Those onion rings were delicious, in fact our whole meal was. I will definitely visit againThey have a giant menu, since I like to do reviews, I had to mention that. They put up a roast turkey dinner with all the trimmings. It smelled so good I wish I had ordered that, but I will try it another time. Breakfast was still being served the patron to my right had a ample plate of scrambled eggs, toast, and home fried potatoes. Looked awesome.The only con I noticed was that the air vents needed to be cleaned, other than that, this place is a hidden gem in the Manchester plaza. ❤️☕❤️☕❤️“

“I absolutely adore this place! The atmosphere is comfy and somewhat nostalgic, just like the cafeteria I visited with my parents as a kid!Though, I noticed one blue-haired girl in there (her name's Lacey according to the badge). She seemed happy and calm, but she was clearly anxious about something. Hope she's doing alright!“

“Friendly staff, locals eat there often. Recently, cucumbers changed - bitter, fries are smaller and not fresh tasting, Cole slaw tastes different, and cream cheese switched from Philadelphia to a "spread." The entrees are delicious! Try the stew, Salmon, and more.“

“Great little hole-in-the wall diner! Not fancy but cutely themed for the older folks. Been coming here for years and it's always consistently good. We usually only have breakfast but I have had their triple decker club sandwiches and burgers which are also very good. Cash only!“

“CJ's is the best breakfast around. The coffee is great, staff is friendly, and the food is outrageously good. One of the best omelettes I have ever had. The pancakes are fluffy & perfect. They serve fresh cups of butter and the cutest container of warm maple syrup. Not sure why anyone would go any where else. Everyone raves about grace and grits, in my opinion CJs is 100 times better. It's well worth the wait.“

“Nice cozy space. Friendly staff Stopped in for breakfast, got my signature breakfast (2 eggs scrambled soft with American cheese and cornbeef hash). Food came out hot and tasty. Also, pancakes here are done really well. My partner had an omelet (very good).. I recommend this diner to anyone in the area.“

“It was our first visit on very sad rainy day, but from the moment we were seated the sunshine came in the form of our wonderful waitress Mary, who was in happy mood, dancing and being just everywhere she could there for us...that was amazing first impression of our dinner and everything else was great - the food was very good (the portions were humongous), the atmosphere is very nice, place is spotless and looks like it was refurbished not to long ago (besides the bathrooms, they need attention). The kind of music they played was perfect (at least for us) and the volume level was also good - we could have comfortable conversation... If nothing would be good (but it was), I still would definitely come for the cheesecake - out of this world..we definitely going to be back for breakfast and lunch too (we will be back Mary..! - there is something about Mary)...?????“
