This place was absolutely amazing. I was impressed by the whole atmosphere. Our server, Sam, was fantastic, very friendly, courteous, pleasant and just provided a sense of joy to the experience. She was also excellent in the knowledge of the food there. Now, speaking of the food, the menu is ridiculously delicious, great variety of foods, both hot and cold with all options for your dietary and eating needs. The pace of the service was excellent too, providing enough time to drink (to start), eat your appetizer and then dig into the main course. Be prepared to go without eating for a couple of days first because the portions are huge for the price - all winners in my book. Great place to eat, I highly recommend it. I’m also sure I’m not the first to leave a review like this before about Whiskey Down Diner!
I have been to Whiskey Down Diner for breakfast, lunch, and dinner at different times and it is always wonderful! The menu always leaves me wanting to come back to try something different because all of the choices sound so delicious. The chicken caesar sando is a must try! The staff is also always a pleasure to deal with. Great restaurant!
Fun old fashioned style diner. Good food. Great service. Portions were very large and prices are reasonable.
Honestly, food was great - large and on charge... everything was well proportioned to the advantage of the patron. Highly recommend the salmon bowl - so good. The chicken wings are perfection... get without sauces on them and twist on the side to dip instead... crispy and delish. Entities else was tasty as well. Only thing that bothered me is someone who apparently worked there was having her hair braided and messed with at a table in the middle of the diner... it was distracting and inappropriate. But whatever... food was great and service on point. Well recommended.
My husband and I have been coming here for a while but I need to make the owners aware that all THREE times we’ve ordered something with the new “jazzy o sourdough”, it’s tasted stale as hell. I figured the first (even second!) time may just be an off day. We love sourdough so we wanted to give it multiple chances. But I mean really, it’s tasted like the bread’s been left out uncovered for days. I hope you guys figure out how to serve food that tastes consistently fresh because this has become a real disappointment - especially for the prices you charge. Stop with this sourdough unless it’s being served the same day it was baked. Getting orders of it in bulk that you’re gonna serve over the course of however many days is not working.
owner seems a bit 💅 and kept looking under the bathroom stalls
They support ignorance and hate. Will never patronize this business again.
First time visiting and excited to try menu. Unfortunately also the first time we’ve walked out of a restaurant. Got there at 430pm to beat dinner crowd. Restaurant was 75% capacity at best. Sat at booth with menus for 15 minutes and watched multiple waitresses walk past our booth and not acknowledge our existence. We walked out. As a farmingdale resident and with all the restaurants on Main Street, I’ll spend my money elsewhere.
Service was very slow, they took food off our table very quickly and threw it out instead of asking if we want to take it home, so we had to order a whole new dish. My son asked for the hot chocolate flight without booze and they didn’t bother to make it look nice and just gave him a cup of hot chocolate. We wanted to order dessert but the check was thrown at us and we weren’t event asked if we wanted to see a dessert menu. $180 for four people and felt it like we got very little for it.
This was one of the BEST diners. I highly recommend you try it if you haven’t yet. One of the best BRUNCH places on Long Island.

I never post a review until I’ve been to a place a few times… Breakfast is my favorite meal of the day. Of the many places I’ve been to for breakfast on Long Island, this is this is by far the best!!! Check it out! You won’t be disappointed!

As a foodie I have been searching for the best Corned Beef Hash and I found it at Whiskey Down Diner in Farmingdale. I sat at the bar and was faced with a wonderful selection of Bourbons and Whiskeys. At ten o’clock AM it was a bit too early for alcohol especially since I did not have my first cup of coffee.
The waitress greeted me with a smile and took my order. My cup of coffee came out first and I was not disappointed. It was hot and strong yet mellow. A great start to my first experience at Whiskey’s.
I always order my Corned Beef Hash well done along with my Hash Browns. At other restaurants, the chef seemed to have lost the recipe for well done. At Whiskey Down not only did the chef know how to make my Hash well done I think he actually wrote the recipe on how to cook orders well done.
The Corned Beef and Hash had a wonderful, browned crust and was well seasoned. I included a picture of my dish, but my fork was faster than my iPhone camera. As a result, I was halfway through my breakfast before I snapped the picture.
If you are looking for a pleasant atmosphere, wonderful service, and delicious food this is the place.
Is this a 5-star review? You betcha it is! Enjoy!
