50 Best Fast Food Restaurants near Pompton Lakes

“Stopped for a quick lunch and enjoyed my stay in the restaurant. The place was light, bright and clean. Food came quickly and hot. The staff was friendly and quick to respond to a mess left in one of the booths. Most notable was the young staff person cleaning tables and arranging loose stools in a neat and orderly way.“

“First time stopping in. The food was great. And the price was very reasonable. The place has great atmosphere, clean & so much to choose from. Staff was super friendly. Especially Brooks, who went above & beyond helping us try decide what to order. I'm not kidding when I say everything looked so good. He kindly gave different suggestions. He took time to explain different options, what they were and how they were made. Any questions or requests we had were met with nothing but kind responses. Will definitely be back!“

“Service was off the charts, you order and barely have to wait to get your food... atmosphere they do a good job working with the small environment they have making sure it looks cool and provides company . The food was off the charts , I recommend getting the chili cheese dog with banana peppers deep fried and a root beer , fair prices for everything and they even deliver will be visiting again and this deserves a 5 star review“

“The birria tacos were delicious! Excellent service.“

“This was the best blizzard I've ever had. All other dairy queens I've been to have made me either wrong blizzards or liquidy blizzards and God forbid they ever flip it as the dairy queen motto says. They brought us the blizzards, flipped it in front of us and they were better tasting than any blizzards I've ever had. The food was fantastic, better than any fast food place I've ever been to. I am astonished by the quality of this place. The only thing I'm disappointed in is that it isn't closer to my house.“

“Shout out to Bubbakoos in New Paltz NY. I forget to hit submit on my online order so when I went in to pick up there was no order for me. When I saw my mistake they made my order right away. That was so awesome of them. I really appreciated the awesome customer service- especially when the error was all mine.“

“Let me start off by saying how Great the food is here!!! When walking inside everything is very bright and clear with prices on absolute everything. I chose mixed fried chicken with fries and also got hot wings with fries. The most amazing flavor and how very fresh the chicken was. Chefs kiss!! My new Favorite chicken spot!! I cannot wait to try more. Thanks for the great service! A happy customer and will recommend to my neighbors and friends!!“

“The hot tenderloin is fantastic.“

“Las hamburguesas 👍🏼 estaban riquísimos y las papas con tocino“

“Our first time going to the Totowa location (met up with friends for lunch). Staff was very friendly and helpful - we decided to eat outside and they brought the food to us quickly. We had the tacos, regular bowl with carnitas and fajita bowl with steak and pina-mango drink. Food was very tasty and freshly made. Will come back to try El Pastor. Definitely recommend Sombrero Tacoria.“

“It was my first time eating from chick-fil-A. It was unbelievably delicious, the chicken sandwich, waffles fries and salads were so fresh. I will recommend everyone to try it. The staff were so friendly and helpful. I will definitely go there again. Love ... Rose 🌹“

“Everything was soooo good!We had the longaniza, morcilla, buche & chicharrón, it was all fried to perfection. That morcilla ??My Chimi de res was perfect! The guys in the truck were very nice and service was fast! We are totally going back “

“Very first visit to the Paterson location. Came from work and searched for places to eat in the area. Very cute place. Very clean and the hostess was nice. She Let us know there were lunch specials . Food was fresh and tasty. Lots of options and all lol as amazing as the Bacon cheeseburger that I ordered and the Wonder burger ordered by my friend. There are different prices for cash and credit. I suggest you bring cash. They have a nice patio and area that can be used for gatherings. The only part I didn’t like was that they add a 15% gratuity w/o notice before spinning around the payment terminal. . I didn’t realize that and added a tip. So they got a double tip. Let me be the one to double tip. Make sure you tell your customers that you auto add tips or you may not have returning customers. We appreciate the restaurant industry and your contribution, but let the customer decide on tip. Other than that , it was a good experience.“

“Outstanding and warrants it's high reviews. Owner was gracious and served up some delicious vittles. Had the Zalim burger (which was insanely good) and the wings (also juicy and delicious). Will go again and again....killer stuff right here.“

“The flavors are like those of Barranquilla, it is evident that the tartar sauce and the pineapple sauce are made by themselves.
We were a group and we ordered a little from everyone.
And all very good, top ingredients.
I would drive whatever it took to get back.“

“I haven't had a bad experience per day but they did get slammed while I was there and ended up passing my order to someone else because they forgot I was there overall good hot food no complaints there and the ice cream isn't bad. Side note I enjoy the friendly chats the two men seem to have with patrons(I'm not from here but have been a few times always everyone smiling or laughing)“

“Always correct with my order I go there with my family and we all have different adjustments we make when ordering and they never fail always correct and fast only taco bell that's on point and attentive to what they do the best taco bell if you ask me!!“

“good service, people are friendly“

“Everything is great 😊 🫶 it with like you“

“This has always been my Go-To Checkers, the fries are everything, and yes they also have funnel cakes aka funnel cake fries, if you are familiar with the area, I do recommend this location...“

“Amazing food high recommend the fudge cheesecake on a stick“

“Stopped by Five Guys in New Jersey and it totally hit the spot! The burger was super fresh, packed with flavor, and the fries were awesome too. Plus, they got my order out really fast — love that! Definitely one of the best quick bites around“

“This place has been around for decades, and their fried chicken is by far the best I’ve had throughout Passaic county. It has a nice spice to it that separates it from others. Their beef patties are also delicious… and you cannot forget to order a burger!

The only concern is the location. They’re located in a dangerous part of Paterson; fortunately, nothing has happened whenever I visited, but always be on alert.“

“Great experience! Ordered through grub hub and grub hub kept delaying my order so Jersey Mikes took it upon themselves to deliver my sandwich personally to the hospital that I work! Great customer service! Thanks again!“

“Excellent service!! Didn’t catch his name but the man wearing a black shirt (maybe manager?) was so kind. I ordered take out and there was just a little a mix up, I think someone else picked up my order. He apologized right away and had them remake my order. It was so fast and he gave me a free brownie plus gift cards for 3 free biscuits. Above and beyond!“

“Had some paperwork to do in downtown and walking by the smells just got me I had to try a sandwich especially since I was in the company of my daughter. We ordered the Roma panini… it was so delicious perfect melt cheese and such a good pesto base , the chicken was so tender. Service was so friendly and inviting, the cashier made sure my coffee was just the way we wanted . Definitely the highlight of our day .“

“It was very good and fast service, this McDonalds is my favorite!!“

“What a place with an old time feel! They are on their game, we ordered on the road 10 minutes out and when we showed up our food was waiting for us. After looking around the building, they have a great condiments bar for all your needs! All the employees were working to get people their food and everything from the kitchen that was on the shelf for customers looked awesome! We got cheese burger clubs and some dogs, which were awesome! Bathrooms and everything was very clean and these guys definitely pay attention to detail on everything! In conclusion, all the food we had was great and these guys will see a surge in patronage as word of mouth goes along way. We just stopped in for a quick lunch on coming home from the beach, and the place continued to fill up as we were there! Johnny, Christos, and company are doing a great job and we will be back very often, because their food and menu options are that good! As I am writing, my wife continues to tell me about the food choices available from the Lantern, which is making me hungry as I write this! You boys have a great thing going and keep it up as we will be continuous customers moving forward!

Sincerely,
AJ Gorman (New regular customer)“

“This is a nice BK, the dining area is decent sized to accommodate the customers, the restrooms are also kept clean, so that's a plus, however, it does get a bit crowded on the weekends, but overall, everything else is okay, the food and service is great and it doesn't take too long to get your order, they also have a kiosk as well, so this location is recommendable...“

“Always fast and friendly service! And that chicken sandwich omg....“

“Awesome atmosphere. I come here every week for consistently great food. Nice workers. Maria is very kind and cares deeply about your Bubbakoo’s experience. Carnitas are out of this world and the store is always so clean. Highly recommend.“

“me encanta la reina pepiada.😋“

“Out of all the places of Lena y Carbon that I’ve been too, this by far is the best one! The food here is amazing and I always get my moneys worth every time I dine in. The service as well is excellent and the atmosphere is very friendly and welcoming! Soraya is the best waitress there, bilingual , attentive & friendly! I recommend her to anyone who stops by here to eat“

“located right on newark pompton turnpike, it's such a great place to stop for a quick bite when you just need a good burger (or their ribeye steak...SO GOOD), i've never met a friendlier staff or have had such a delicious meal ready to take home im such a short amount of time. definitely will be recommending this place to everyone i know!!!“

“9/27/25

Hubby was looking for something to eat and found Dominican Pica Pollo. Fried chicken with Dominican seasoning, it's so good.

I got the sandwich and hubby got chicken pieces. Have to say I prefer the chicken pieces. The chicken in the sandwich was a little overcooked so it was very dry, even though it is wonderfully seasoned.

Will go back for the chicken pieces yum.“

“It's a great local spot run by Barb. Barb is the best and she makes you feel very welcome. It is super casual and she's willing to make you anything you want with the ingredients she has. She has a lot of regular customers and frequently names menu items after them. She's open early in the morning with hot coffee and breakfast items and on hot days she has ice cream and frozen treats and stuff like that as well. She makes delicious hot dogs with chili and hamburgers as well. I will definitely go back at some point soon to try the other menu items. When I go back it will be only partly for the food, but mostly just to hang out with Barb.“

“Much better on Friday 11/11/17 with new management, Kahlil (sp?, Ka-lee-el). He was kind and helpful to me and my kids. Would definitely return if he was working.“

“This was probably the CLEANEST fast food location I've ever been to. The bathroom, the counters, and the dining areas are spotless. And the bathroom didn't smell bad either. I had to come on here and write the review because of how impressed I was. My order was also fully correct. I usually make changes to my burger and they got everything right. I even placed my order through the app and it was ready before I even got to the restaurant (7 minute timeframe). The manager must be running the place like it's the Navy. Thank you guys, keep up the good work.“

“Came here for the first time- we’re Vegans, and sometimes it’s difficult to find an Indian restaurant that has many vegan options. The staff went out of their way to help us find the vegan options on the menu, and when they were out of some ingredients to make certain dishes (it’s Diwali, and so it’s a busy time of year) that featured mushrooms and tofu, they actually custom created a dish so that we could try more of what they have to offer. A great experience, and will definitely be coming back!

“The Subway on Main Street in Paterson is always a solid choice! The staff is friendly and makes the sandwiches just the way you ask. Everything tastes fresh — from the bread to the veggies — and the place is clean and well maintained. Service is quick, and they’re consistent every time I stop by. Great spot for a quick, fresh meal in Paterson!“

“l Love there food pricing is reasonable. Owner is great. You must go visit“

“(Translated by Google) If you are reading this it is because you know what you are looking for. I ordered Longaniza and chicken and beef chimi. If you come from Florida or out of state, come easy. There is plenty of light and it is very clean.(Original)Si estás leyendo esto es porque sabes lo que andas buscando. Pedí Longaniza y chimi de pollo y res. Si vienes de florida o fuera del estado, ven tranquilo. Hay bastante luz y está muy limpio.“

“Outstanding group of workers there! Greeted as soon as we walked into the door, and even though there was a long line - the crew were quick, accurate and did a fantastic job making sure our wait wasn’t too long. Even went as far to ask each customer their name, introducing themselves and asking how their day was going! Stellar crew and are happy to have them in the community! And did I mention the sandwiches are delicious and prepared perfectly?!! Five stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“Place is very convenient and the Staff is great. It is Constantly under staffed though. The owner should hang in the back less (in between prepping) and take some orders. 25 min line on a Tuesday and you are in the back. Work smarter not harder“
