This is a staple venue for my father and I to grab food together as the staff is always welcoming, the food is quick and delicious and the wait is never obnoxiously long. We quite enjoy the fried feta (I believe its the only place in the area that makes it), but their breakfast food is great. I normally prefer their french toast short stack, though their spinach and feta omelette is my comfort food.

Stopped for a late breakfast and was not disappointed. Ordered blueberry pancakes and they were as good as any blueberry pancakes I've had in years. My grandson decided on a BLT and was not disappointed. Our server was pleasant and efficient. Would have rated 5 stars but on-site parking is limited.

Clean diner and good food.....what more could you ask for. Jake was our waiter, he was friendly and patient as we had 2 small kids. Honey dipped fried chicken could have used a touch more honey but was still AMAZING.

Food was pretty good. Definitely not small portions. What stunned me was restrooms. It looked like noone cleaned them since the place was established. It smell disgusting floor and surfaces need some serious scrubbing. We couldn't use it...I would give this place 4 stars but after I saw restrooms...its not fair to the staff, hire a damn housekeeper...

Cozy little piece of history. This 127 year old eatery serves up some delicious farethat comes in generous portions at low prices in a friendly atmosphere. Downtown Hightstown is a trip back in time and can be a bit of a tight fit for traffic, but I would recommend making the effort for a visit.

Love this great Jersey Diner ! One of the reasons I enjoy this place so much is after Hurricane Sandy our home was without power along with 90% of Hightstown . The owners and staff managed to feed a standing room only restaurant with great delicious meals for days quickly and with a smile . Some of the waitresses said that they'd worked 16 hour shifts for days in a row to keep everything going smooth and keep customers happy . All the great options on the menu and what I consider some of the best burgers around will always make me a regular here !

Lived in the area for 18 years and passed it many times. Decided on a whim to visit the diner. Saw the triple D was here and raved about the corned beef hash so I had to try it. It was okay, nothing spectacular like Guy Fieri boasted but good. The other person had an egg whites omelette and said it was very good. The hash brown potatoes were excellent, browned properly on the griddle.

What a great day I had eatting here! The service was friendly and smiling. It was like an old school feel when you go to a place that knows you around the neighborhood. The corn beef hash is YUUUUMMMMMM!!!! Not greasy, not over cooked, get tastes of green peppers in it, the potatoes were fresh. It was a delight. Eggs were fluffy and fresh. The French Toast is more on the savory side. I'm a sweet French toast girl but it was still well cooked and such a good batter. I would happily bring my friends here to eat and chat. *Update: came back with a friend a few weeks later. All food was good but the corn beef hash tasted stale. Bummer. I guess you gotta get it early in the week.

This is the second time I ordered from this diner but because the delivery person/boss decided to ring the door bell and leave my food on the ground, I thought that was very inappropriate. Who wants food serve to them from the ground? In 10 seconds I was at the door, ready to tip and expecting my food to be handed to me and this character decides that it was smart to leave my food on the ground. Really? Plus we deal with ants where I live, so I was livid. And no this was not through grubhub. Have a great day.

Took my children there today for their first breakfast dining experience. They give it 5 stars!!! Food was "DELICIOUS" and it was not too busy. Chocolate Chip Pancakes were a hit! Friendly and inviting staff make this a "GO-TO" diner!! No need for all the flashy modern amenities that many "diners" have become! Good food and friendly atmosphere is all that's needed!!
