1st time there (10/4/25) My husband loved the sausage gravy w/biscuits (he said its not as good as Mine..lol but its close) I had a skillet with ham,bacom,P&O, cheese potatoes It was VERY good I normally dont like places homefries/potatoes but Mels Place had some good ones. And both grandkids got pancakes and eggs and thoroughly enjoyed their breakfast. The waitress was an older woman and just fantastic.. oh and idk why but the hot coffee was delicious-Good quality coffee!

This is a classic NJ dinner. They serve great omelettes and griddle offerings. They have a fast kitchen. We didn’t try lunch. My kids really loved eating there.

Went here for breakfast based on the positive reviews. Nice atmosphere and service, but the food was a big disappointment. Asked for scrambled eggs soft with cheese — as someone else mentioned it was an egg omelet with cheese melted on top. Asked for soft scramble this was dry. Pancakes were big and heavy not fluffy and tasted a bit salty. Wanted so much to like this place, don’t think I’ll be back.

The place was very clean, which stood out right away. The food was decent nothing to rave about, but not bad either. Service could have been more attentive; I sat at the counter and it took a while before anyone came over. The staff seemed friendlier when it was time to bring the check, so it didn’t feel as warm as I would’ve liked. Still, everyone’s experience is different. I’m not knocking the place, just giving my honest take. I’d go back, but that’s my two cents now you can decide for yourself.

Decent food. Sausage gravy was a bit bland in comparison so most other places. Coffee was pretty decent. Any place that sells tatertots for breakfast is a win. Not the best place on earth but decent.

Fantastic place. Basic breakfasts but well cooked. Clean, friendly place. If you just want a good meal with a nice calm atmosphere, go there.

Terrible experience. We tried to get in with a registered service dog. My partner is 100% disabled veteran. They declined our entry which is illegal. Service dog can enter any facility. The communication was rude. Avoid!
